Applicability of post-ionization theory to laser-assisted field evaporation of magnetite

December 18, 2014
Author(s)
Ann C. Chiaramonti Debay, D. K. Schreiber, Lyle M. Gordon, Karen Kruska
Analysis of the mean Fe ion charge state from laser-assisted field evaporation of magnetite (Fe3O4) reveals unexpected trends as a function of laser pulse energy that break from conventional post-ionization theory for metals. For Fe ions evaporated from

MECHANICS ANALYSIS OF MOLAR TOOTH SPLITTING

December 12, 2014
Author(s)
Amir Barani, Brian R. Lawn, Mark Bush, Herzl Chai
A model for the splitting of teeth from wedge loading of molar cusps from a round indenting object is presented. The model is developed in two parts: first, a simple 2D fracture mechanics configuration with the wedged tooth simulated by a compact tension

Computing elastic moduli on 3-D X-ray computed tomography image stacks

December 10, 2014
Author(s)
Edward Garboczi, Volodymyr Kushch
A common numerical task is to compute the effective elastic properties of a random composite material based on its microstructure by operating on a 3D digital image of the microstructure obtained via X-ray computed tomography (CT). The 3-D image is usually

Details of the Magnetization Reversal in Patterned Exchange-biased and Unbiased Thin Films

November 1, 2014
Author(s)
Robert D. Shull, Y. P. Kabanov, Andrew P. Chen, Cindi L. Dennis, V S. Gornakov, Valerian I. Nikitenko
New features of the magnetization reversal of a patterned bilayer in the form of a square mesh consisting of 16 um wide intersecting stripes of Ni(sub79)Fe(sub21) (30 nm) exchange-coupled with IrMn (10 um) on top were revealed via use of the advanced

Structural and Dynamical Studies of Acid Mediated Conversion in Amorphous-Calcium-Phosphate Based Dental Composites

October 31, 2014
Author(s)
Fan Zhang, Andrew Allen, Lyle E. Levine, Mark D. Vaudin, Drago Skrtic, Joseph M. Antonucci, Kathleen Hoffman, Anthony A. Giuseppetti, Jan Ilavsky
Amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) based composites are promising restorative dental materials attributable to ACP's capacity to release calcium and phosphate ions through a complex reaction in which ACP is converted to its crystalline, apatitic form

Faceting Control in Core/Shell GaN micropillars using Selective Epitaxy

October 15, 2014
Author(s)
Sergiy Krylyuk, Heayoung Yoon, Baomei Wen, Abhishek Motayed, Albert Davydov, Matt N. King
We report on fabricating large-area, vertically aligned GaN epitaxial core-shell micropillar arrays. The two-step process consisted of inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etch of lithographically patterned n-type GaN substrate followed by selective growth of

Universal scaling law for the flow of non-Newtonian colloidal suspension

October 1, 2014
Author(s)
Nicos Martys, William L. George, Maxime Liard, Pascal Hebraud, Didier Lootens
It has been observed that flow curves (viscosity vs shear-rate) of spherical non-colloidal particles suspended in a non-Newtonian fluid matrix can be rescaled so as to collapse onto the flow curve of the matrix fluid. This result is surprising given the

Testing of Small-Sized Specimens

September 26, 2014
Author(s)
Enrico Lucon
An extensive review of the current state-of-the-art of small specimen test technology (SSTT) has been presented, covering a number of experimental techniques aimed at characterizing the mechanical properties of materials and components through the use of

High-efficiency WSi superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors operating at 2.5 K

September 24, 2014
Author(s)
Varun B. Verma, Boris Korzh, Felix Bussieres, Robert D. Horansky, Adriana E. Lita, Francesco Marsili, Hugo Zbinden, Richard P. Mirin, Sae Woo Nam
We demonstrate that superconducting nanowire single photon detectors (SNSPDs) fabricated from amorphous WSi may be operated with > 75 % system detection efficiency at a temperature approaching seventy percent of the superconducting transition temperature

Methods for the Measurement of Release of MWCNTs from MWCNT-Polymer Composites

September 18, 2014
Author(s)
Debra L. Kaiser, Aleksandr B. Stefaniak, Keana C. Scott, Tinh Nguyen, Jurg Schutz
Multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/polymer composites hold great promise as advanced materials for consumer and industrial applications. Throughout the life cycle of these composites, there is opportunity for release of particles that may contain MWCNT and

Physics-based Electro-thermal Saber Model and Parameter Extraction for High-Voltage SiC Buffer IGBTs

September 15, 2014
Author(s)
Tam H. Duong, Allen R. Hefner Jr., Jose M. Ortiz, Sei-Hyung Ryu , Edward VanBrunt, Lin Cheng, Scott Allen, John W. Palmour
The purpose of this paper is to present a physics-based electro-thermal Saber model and parameter extraction sequence for high-voltage SiC buffer layer n-channel insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). This model was developed by modifying and

Multiscale Correlative Measurements of Nanoparticles in Cells

August 26, 2014
Author(s)
Aric W. Sanders, Kavita M. Jeerage, Cindi Schwartz, Alexandra E. Curtin, Ann C. Chiaramonti Debay
Nanoparticles are emerging as invaluable tools in disease diagnosis, disease treatment and imaging contrast enhancement agents. The interactions of nanoparticles with host organisms are complex and affect biological systems over length scales that vary
