IMS-Based Trace Explosives Detectors for First Responder Use

September 1, 2005
Author(s)
Jennifer R. Verkouteren, John G. Gillen, R M. Verkouteren, Robert A. Fletcher, E S. Etz, George A. Klouda, Alim A. Fatah, Philip J. Mattson
The purpose of this document is to establish minimum performance requirements and an associated test method for Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS) based trace explosives detectors for use by the first responder community. Information concerning the theory and

Evaluation of Pressure Oscillator Losses

August 29, 2005
Author(s)
Peter E. Bradley, Michael A. Lewis, Ray Radebaugh
Efficiencies of regenerative cryocoolers are influenced by losses within the pressure oscillator (compressor). An evaluation of these losses is important when searching for ways to improve the overall cryocooler efficiency. Typically, compressor efficiency

Chemical Warfare Agent Detection Using MEMS Microsensor Arrays

August 1, 2005
Author(s)
Douglas C. Meier, C J. Taylor, Richard E. Cavicchi, Edward White V, M W. Ellzy, K B. Sumpter, Stephen Semancik
Chemical sensors capable of accurate detection of trace quantities of chemical warfare (CW) agents would provide a potent tool for perimeter security, treaty verification, battlefield threat detection, and the protection of civilians in public places

Chemical Warfare Agent Detection Using MEMS-Compatible Microsensor Arrays

August 1, 2005
Author(s)
Douglas C. Meier, C J. Taylor, Richard E. Cavicchi, Edward White, M W. Ellzy, K B. Sumpter, Stephen Semancik
Microsensors have been fabricated consisting of TiO2 and SnO2 sensing films prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on MEMS- (micro-electromechanical systems) compatible array platforms. Response measurements from these devices to the CW agents GA

ThermoData Engine (TDE): Software Implementation of the Dynamic Data Evaluation Concept

May 18, 2005
Author(s)
Michael D. Frenkel, Robert D. Chirico, Vladimir Diky, Xinjian Yan, Qian Dong, Chris D. Muzny
The first full-scale software implementation of the dynamic data evaluation concept {ThermoData Engine (TDE)} is described for thermophysical and thermochemical property data. This concept requires the development of large electronic databases capable of

In Situ Ellipsometric Study of PEG/Cl - Coadsorption on Cu, Ag, and Au

May 1, 2005
Author(s)
Marlon L. Walker, Lee J. Richter, Thomas P. Moffat
Spectroscopic ellipsometry was used to examine the adsorption of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and Cl- on polycrystalline Cu, Ag and Au electrodes in sulfuric acid. In halide-free sulfuric acid, PEG adsorption on Cu and Ag is minimal at potentials positive of
