Overlap junctions for high coherence superconducting qubits

May 26, 2017
Author(s)
Xian Wu, Junling Long, Hsiang S. Ku, Russell Lake, Mustafa Bal, David P. Pappas
Fabrication of sub-micron Josephson junctions is demonstrated using standard processing techniques for high-coherence, superconducting qubits. These junctions are made in two separate lithography steps with normal-angle evaporation. Most significantly

Electrical stabilization of surface resistivity in epitaxial graphene systems by amorphous boron nitride encapsulation

May 25, 2017
Author(s)
Albert F. Rigosi, Chieh-I Liu, Nicholas R. Glavin, Yanfei Yang, Heather M. Hill, Jiuning Hu, Angela R. Hight Walker, Curt A. Richter, Randolph E. Elmquist, David B. Newell
Homogeneous monolayer epitaxial graphene (EG) is an ideal candidate for the development of millimeter-sized devices with single-crystal domains. A clean fabrication process was used to produce EG-based devices with n-type doping level of order 10^12 cm^-2

Imposing Fine-grain Next Generation Access Control over Database Queries

May 25, 2017
Author(s)
David F. Ferraiolo, Serban I. Gavrila, Gopi Katwala, Joshua D. Roberts
In this paper we describe a system that leverages ANSI/INCITS Next Generation Access Control (NGAC) standard called Next-generation Database Access Control (NDAC) for accessing data in tables, rows, and columns in existing RDBMS products. NDAC imposes

Inferring previously uninstalled applications from digital traces

May 25, 2017
Author(s)
Jim Jones, Tahir Kahn, Kathryn B. Laskey, Alexander J. Nelson, Mary T. Laamanen, Douglas R. White
In this paper, we present an approach and experimental results to suggest the past presence of an application after the application has been uninstalled and the system has remained in use. Current techniques rely on the recovery of intact artifacts and

NMRbox: A Resource for Biomolecular NMR Computation

May 25, 2017
Author(s)
Mark W. Maciejewski, Adam D. Schuyler, Michael R. Gryk, Ion I. Moraru, Pedro R. Romero, Eldon L. Ulrich, Hamid R. Eghbalnia, Miron Livny, Frank Delaglio, Jeffrey C. Hoch
Advances in computation have been enabling for many recent advances in biomolecular applications of NMR. Due to the wide diversity of applications of NMR, the number and variety of software packages for processing and analyzing NMR data is quite large

Physical Sidelink Control Channel (PSCCH) in Mode 2: Performance Analysis

May 25, 2017
Author(s)
David W. Griffith, Fernando J. Cintron, Richard A. Rouil
User Equipments (UEs) that send data must advertise the upcoming transmission by broadcasting signaling messages over the Physical Sidelink Control Channel (PSCCH). Thus, it is important for the network operator to define the PSCCH resource pool to

What Happened to Software Metrics?

May 25, 2017
Author(s)
Jeffrey M. Voas, David R. Kuhn
In the 1980's, the software quality community was all 'a buzz' with seemingly endless 'potential' approaches for producing higher quality software. At the forefront of that was software metrics, along with the corresponding software testing techniques and

Electric field metrology for SI traceability: Systematic measurement uncertainties in electromagnetically induced transparency in atomic vapor

May 24, 2017
Author(s)
Christopher L. Holloway, Matthew T. Simons, Joshua A. Gordon, Georg Raithel, dave Anderson
We investigate the relationship between the Rabi frequency ($\Ω_{RF}$, related to the applied electric field) and Autler-Townes (AT) splitting, when performing atom-based radio- frequency (RF) electric (E) field strength measurements using Rydberg states

The Indianapolis Flux Experiment (INFLUX): A test-bed for developing anthropogenic greenhouse gas emission measurements.

May 23, 2017
Author(s)
Ken Davis, Kevin Gurney, R. M. Hardesty, Shepson Paul, Colm Sweeney, Jocelyn Turnbull, James Whetstone, Anna Karion
The objective of the Indianapolis Flux Experiment (INFLUX) is to develop, evaluate and improve methods for measuring greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from cities. INFLUX's scientific objectives are to quantify CO2 and CH4 emission rates at 1 km2 resolution

Counting Near Infrared Photons with Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors

May 22, 2017
Author(s)
Jiansong Gao, Michael R. Vissers, Joel N. Ullom, Johannes Hubmayr, Joseph W. Fowler, Leila R. Vale, Weijie Guo
We demonstrate photon counting at 1550~nm wavelength using microwave kinetic inductance detectors (MKIDs) made from TiN/Ti/TiN trilayer films with superconducting transition temperature $T_{c} \sim$ 1.4~K. The detector has a lump-element design with a

Impact of RRAM Read Fluctuations on the Program-Verify Approach

May 22, 2017
Author(s)
David M. Nminibapiel, Dmitry Veksler, Pragya Shrestha, Jason Campbell, Jason Ryan, Helmut Baumgart, Kin P. Cheung
The stochastic nature of the conductive filaments in oxide-based resistive memory (RRAM) represents a sizeable impediment to commercialization. As such, program-verify methodologies are highly alluring. However, it was recently shown that program-verify

Trion Valley Coherence in Monolayer Semiconductors

May 22, 2017
Author(s)
Kai Hao, Lixiang Xu, Wu Fengcheng, Philip Nagler, Kha Tran, Xin Ma, Tobias Korn, Allan H. MacDonald, Xiaoqin Li, Galan Moody
The emerging field of valleytronics aims to exploit the valley pseudospin of electrons residing near Bloch band extrema as an information carrier. Recent experiments demonstrating optical generation and manipulation of exciton valley coherence (the

Devices in advanced technology nodes: application-specific characterization

May 21, 2017
Author(s)
gennadi bersuker, Dmitry Veksler, Donald Pierce, Maribeth Mason
Scaled advanced node devices incorporate new combinations of semiconductor materials and ultra-thin multi-layer dielectric stacks. As a consequence, inter-material interactions may unpredictably affect transistor electrical characteristics and reliability

Preservation of surface conductivity and dielectric loss tangent in large-scale, encapsulated epitaxial graphene measured by non-contact microwave cavity perturbations
