Thickness-Dependent Permeability of Molecular Layer-By-Layer Polyamide Membranes

August 28, 2020
Author(s)
William D. Mulhearn, Vladimir Oleshko, Christopher Stafford
We present the thickness-dependent permeability of highly crosslinked polyamide (PA) membranes formed by a molecular layer-by-layer (mLbL) deposition process. The deposition allows for the synthesis of extremely smooth, uniform PA films of tunable

Layering of Magnetic Nanoparticles at Amorphous Magnetic Templates with Perpendicular Anisotropy

August 26, 2020
Author(s)
Apurve Saini, Julie Borchers, Sebastian George, Brian B. Maranville, Kathryn L. Krycka, Joseph Dura, Katharina Theis-Brohl, Max Wolff
We reveal the assembly of monodisperse magnetite nanoparticles of sizes 5 nm, 15 nm and 25 nm from dilute water-based ferrofluids onto an amorphous magnetic template with out-ofplane anisotropy. From neutron reflectometry experiments we extract density

X-ray Scattering Studies of Reverse Osmosis Materials

Qinyi Fu, Nisha Verma, Benjamin S. Hsiao, Francisco J. Medellin-Rodriguez, Peter Beaucage, Christopher Stafford, Benjamin M. Ocko
Scarcity of freshwater is becoming a world crisis. In a recent annual risk report, the World Economic Forum lists it in their greatest global risk category. Currently, about four billion people live under conditions of severe water scarcity for at least

Structural and Dynamical Properties of Potassium Dodecahydro-Monocarba-Closo-Dodecaborate: KCB 11 H 12

August 20, 2020
Author(s)
Mirjana Dimitrievska, Hui Wu, Vitalie Stavila, Olga A. Babanova, Roman V. Skoryunov, Alexei V. Soloninin, Wei Zhou, Benjamin Trump
MCB 11H 12 (M: Li, Na) dodecahydro-monocarba-closo-dodecaborate salt compounds are known to have stellar superionic Li + and Na + conductivities in their high-temperature disordered phases, making them potentially appealing electrolytes in all-solid-state

Magnetic Properties of (Fe 1-x Mn x ) 2 AlB 2 and the Impact of Substitution on the Magnetocaloric Effect

August 6, 2020
Author(s)
D. Potashnikov, Elad Nisan NMN Caspi, A. Pesach, S. Kota, M. Sokol, L. A. Hanner, M. W. Barsoum, Hayden Evans, A. Eyal, A. Keren, O. Rivin
In this work, we investigate the magnetic structures of (Fe 1−xMn x) 2AlB 2 solid-solution quaternaries in the x = 0 to 1 range using X-ray and neutron diffraction, magnetization measurements, and mean field theory calculations. While Fe 2AlB 2 and Mn 2AlB

Early stage nucleation in barium disilicate glass

August 1, 2020
Author(s)
Ling Cai, Randall E. Youngman, David E. Baker, Aram Rezikyan, Minghui Zhang, Bryan Wheaton, Indrajit Dutta, Bruce G. Aitken, Andrew J. Allen
Early stage nucleation in silicate glasses is often evidenced by formation of nanosized regions that are stoichiometrically different from the surrounding matrix. The structural origin of these early stage nucleation sites is of great interest in gaining a

Effect of Molecular Weight and Layer Thickness on the Dielectric Breakdown Strength of Neat and Homopolymer Swollen Lamellar Block Copolymer Films

July 31, 2020
Author(s)
Saumil Samant, Monali Basutkar, Maninderjeet Singh, Ali Masud, Christopher A. Grabowski, Kim Kisslinger, Joseph Strzalka, Guangcui Yuan, Sushil K. Satija, Ikeoluwa Apata, Dharmaraj Raghavan, Michael Durstock, Alamgir Karim
Designing next generation light-weight pulsed power sources hinges on understanding the factors influencing the performance of high energy density storage materials. In prior work, we demonstrated the use of Cold Zone Annealing with Soft Shear (CZA-SS) as

Polymer Surface/Interface Consortium 2018 Workshop Report

July 29, 2020
Author(s)
Ronald S. Lankone, Li Piin Sung, David G. Goodwin, Andrew Fairbrother
The Polymer Surface/Interface (PSI) consortium held a two-day workshop at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, MD on October 17th & 18th, 2018 titled, “The development of characterization tools, test methods, modeling

Cesium Substitution Disrupts Concerted Cation Dynamics in Formamidinium Hybrid Perovskites

July 28, 2020
Author(s)
Eve M. Mozur, Michael A. Hope, Julia C. Trowbridge, David M. Halat, Luke L. Daemen, Annalise E. Maughan, Timothy R Prisk, Clare P. Grey, James R. Neilson
While hybrid perovskites show great promise for photovoltaic applications, several of the most technologically relevant hybrid perovskites degrade rapidly when exposed to water, oxygen, or infrared and ultraviolet radiation. Empirical studies have shown
