Vector-Network-Analyzer Calibration Using Line and Multiple Coplanar-Waveguide Offset Reflects

December 9, 2016
Author(s)
Arkadiusz C. Lewandowski, Wojciech Wiatr, Dazhen Gu, Nate Orloff, Thomas Mitchell (Mitch) Wallis, Pavel Kabos
We present the application of our newly developed multi-reflect-thru technique to vector-network-analyzer calibration in the on-wafer environment. This technique uses a set of highly-reflective one-port devices, referred to as offset-reflects, and a single

Checking the Net Contents of Packaged Goods (NIST HB 133 2017)

December 7, 2016
Author(s)
Lisa Warfield, David Sefcik, Linda D. Crown
This handbook has been prepared as a procedural guide for the compliance testing of net contents statements on packaged goods. Compliance testing of packaged goods is the determination of the conformance results of the packaging, distribution, and

Draft B Report on the Key Comparison CCM.P-K4.2012 in Absolute Pressure from 1 Pa to 10 kPa

December 7, 2016
Author(s)
Jacob E. Ricker, Jay H. Hendricks, Thomas Bock, Prazak Dominik, Tokihiko Kobata, Jorge Torres, Irina Sadkovskaya
This report summarizes the Consultative Committee for Mass (CCM) key comparison CCM.P-K4.2012 for absolute pressure spanning the range of 1 Pa to 10 000 Pa. The comparison was completed via calibration of a transfer standard carried out at six NMIs during

Electron Microscopy and Nanoscopy: Analytical

December 5, 2016
Author(s)
Vladimir P. Oleshko
The analytical electron microscope (AEM) is a transmission and/or scanning transmission electron microscope (S/TEM) which is modified to permit composition analyses using x-ray energy-dispersive spectroscopy (XEDS) and/or electron energy-loss spectroscopy

Thermographic Measurements of the Commercial Laser Powder Bed Fusion Process at NIST

December 5, 2016
Author(s)
Brandon M. Lane, Shawn P. Moylan, Eric P. Whitenton, Li Ma
Measurement of the high-temperature melt pool region in the laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) process is a primary focus of researchers to further understand the dynamic physics of the heating, melting, adhesion, and cooling which define this commercially

Architecture for Software-assisted Quantity Calculus

December 2, 2016
Author(s)
David W. Flater
A quantity value, such as 5 kg, consists of a number and a reference (often an International System of Units (SI)unit) that together express the magnitude of a quantity. Many software libraries, packages, and ontologies that implement "quantities and units

Membrane-Based Environmental Cells for SEM in Liquids

December 1, 2016
Author(s)
Andrei A. Kolmakov
Environmental electron microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) in liquids are among the most active research areas in modern electron microscopy and spectroscopy. Research interest in these techniques is broad as they are enabling the nanoscale

New Methods for Series-Resistor Calibrations on Lossy Substrates up to 110 GHz

December 1, 2016
Author(s)
Liu Song, Nate Orloff, Song Liu, Charles A. Little, Xifeng Lu, James Booth, IIja Ocket, Arkadiusz Lewandowski, Dominique Schreurs, Bart Nauwelaers
We present two new methods to perform seriesresistor calibrations on lossy substrates. Lossless calibration substrates, which are required by the traditional calibration comparison technique, are not needed. The proposed methods rely on the multiline TRL
