Author(s)
Robert G. Brinson, Houman Ghasriani, Derek Hodgson, Adams Kristie, Ian McEwen, Kang Chen, Yves Aubin, John P. Marino
The higher order structure (HOS) of biotherapeutics is a critical quality attribute that can be evaluated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy at atomic resolution. NMR spectral mapping of HOS can be used to establish HOS consistency of a

Measurements of trapped-ion heating rates with exchangeable surfaces in close proximity

January 15, 2017
Author(s)
Dustin A. Hite, Kyle S. McKay, Shlomi Salman Kotler, Dietrich G. Leibfried, David J. Wineland, David P. Pappas
Electric-field noise from the surfaces of ion-trap electrodes couples to the ion’s charge causing heating of the ion’s motional modes. This heating limits the fidelity of quantum gates implemented in quantum information processing experiments. The exact

Activity Model for Homogenization of Data Sets in Laser-based Powder Bed Fusion

January 14, 2017
Author(s)
Shaw C. Feng, Paul W. Witherell, Duck B. Kim
Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes are the integration of many different science and engineering-related disciplines, such as material metrology, design, process planning, in-situ and off-line measurements, and controls. Major integration challenges

Advances in RRAM technology: identifying and mitigating roadblocks

January 13, 2017
Author(s)
Dmitry Veksler, Gennadi Bersuker
The filament-based RRAM has demonstrated superior scalability, endurance, low power operation, retention, and operating speed. A challenge navigating trade-offs between high density, low switching power, and stability can be addressed by capitalizing on

COMMUNITY RESILIENCE OF LIFELINE SYSTEMS: SOCIETAL NEEDS AND PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT

January 13, 2017
Author(s)
Chris Rojahn, Laurie Johnson, Thomas O'Rourke, Veronica Cedillos, Therese P. McAllister
The concept of community resilience is a complex, multi-dimensional problem that relies on social science, engineering, earth sciences, economics, and other disciplines to improve the way communities prepare for, resist, respond to, and recover from

Identifying NIST Impacts on Patenting: A Novel Data Set and Potential Uses

January 13, 2017
Author(s)
Gary W. Anderson Jr.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) mission is to “promote U.S. innovation and industrial competitiveness.” To meet this mission, NIST scientists produce a great variety of scientific and technical outputs. This paper present

Determination of Liquid Density

January 12, 2017
Author(s)
Lane C. Sander, Lorna T. Sniegoski
The determination of solution density is required for conversion of liquid solution levels from a mass fraction basis to a volume fraction basis. This presentation will provide information about three approaches in common use for the determination of

Liquid Chromatography: Introduction and Instrumentation

January 12, 2017
Author(s)
Lane C. Sander
Chromatography is an example of a process by which a mixture is separated into at least two fractions with different compositions. This presentation will provide a brief overview of the practice of liquid chromatography (LC), with an emphasis on

Measurement of Uranium-236 in Particles by Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry

January 12, 2017
Author(s)
David S. Simons, John D. Fassett
The determination of the relative isotopic abundance by secondary ion mass spectrometry of 236U in uranium-containing material is complicated by the presence of 235U1H+ ions at the same nominal mass as the uranium isotopic peak. The net intensity of the

Plumbing for Liquid Chromatography

January 12, 2017
Author(s)
Lane C. Sander
The setup and maintenance of liquid chromatographic equipment requires a basic knowledge of chromatographic hardware. Tubing connections are an essential component in liquid chromatography instrumentation. System function and performance depend on the

Preparation of Calibration Solutions

January 12, 2017
Author(s)
Lane C. Sander, Michele M. Schantz
Calibration solutions provide the basis for quantitation for most instrumental techniques. The instrumental responses for analytes in calibrants of known composition are compared with corresponding responses in samples to provide quantitation of the

Pressurized Fluid Extraction

January 12, 2017
Author(s)
Lane C. Sander
Pressurized fluid extraction (PFE) is one of several sample preparation methods that can be used to extract targeted analytes from a sample matrix into a solvent, to permit subsequent analysis. With PFE, samples are extracted with solvent in a pressurized

Principles of Quantitation: Chromatography

January 12, 2017
Author(s)
Lane C. Sander
The accurate characterization of the chemical composition of a sample depends on a variety of factors that must be considered by the analyst. Knowledge of how different approaches to quantitation affect the measurement accuracy is requisite to the

Sample Concentration and Processing

January 12, 2017
Author(s)
Lane C. Sander
Sample Concentration and Processing Sample concentration is a common step in sample preparation prior to analysis that is performed to increase method sensitivity or to exchange solvent environment. Sample concentration can be thought of as a separation

Sorting carbon nanotubes
