Test method for measuring the electrical output of electroshock weapons

July 25, 2016
Author(s)
Nicholas G. Paulter Jr., David M. Jenkins, Norimitsu Ichikawa, Michael Leonesio
Electroshock weapons (ESWs) have become a ubiquitous component of weapons used in the arsenal of domestic law enforcement (LE) agencies and the military around the world. It is a major contributor to the escalation of force policies and procedures of many

Demultiplexing Spectrum-Sharing Field Sources with Distributed Field Probes

July 24, 2016
Author(s)
Dan Kuester, Ryan T. Jacobs, Yao Ma, Jason Coder
A complete characterization of multiple-device wireless interactions must include data relatable to the electromagnetic field radiated by each device under test (DUT). If these field sources are separable in time or frequency, they can be demultiplexed

Versatile fluidic cell for in-situ electrochemical measurements in SEM

July 24, 2016
Author(s)
Jeyavel Velmurugan, Ana Stevanovic, Feng Yi, David A. LaVan, Andrei Kolmakov
Electrochemical techniques such as like electrodeposition are crucially important for fabrication of nanostructured materials. The details of cluster nucleation and growth at early stages of electrodeposition are extremely important for morphology and

Insulator-quantum Hall transition in monolayer epitaxial graphene

July 22, 2016
Author(s)
Lung-I Huang, Yanfei Yang, Randolph Elmquist, Shun-Tsung Lo, Fan-Hung H. Liu, Chi-Te Laing
We report on magneto-transport measurements on low-density, large-area monolayer epitaxial graphene devices grown on SiC. We observe temperature (T)-independent crossing points in the longitudinal resistivity (rho)sub(xx), which are signatures of the

Miniature atomic scaler magnetometer for space based on the rubidium isotope 87 Rb

July 22, 2016
Author(s)
Haje Korth, Kim Strohbehn, Francisco Tejada, Andreas G Andreou, John Kitching, Svenja A. Knappe, S. John Lehtonen, Shaughn M. London, Matiwos Kafel
A miniature absolute scalar magnetometer based on the rubidium isotope 87Rb was developed for possible future operation in space. The instrument design implements both Mx and Mz mode operation and leverages a novel micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS)

Multi-Fingered Robotic Grasping: A Primer

July 22, 2016
Author(s)
Stefano Carpin, Shuo Liu, Joseph Falco, Karl Van Wyk
Grasping and manipulation has generated significant interest in the robotics community, and robotic grasping emerged as an autonomous area of research since the development of the first robotic hands. Notwithstanding, robotic grasping continues to be one

Structural and Magnetic Depth Profiles of Magneto-Ionic Heterostructures Beyond the Interface Limit

July 22, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin A. Gilbert, Alexander J. Grutter, Elke Arenholz, Kai Liu, Brian J. Kirby, Julie A. Borchers, Brian B. Maranville
Electric-field control of magnetism provides a promising route towards ultralow power information storage and sensor technologies. The effects of magneto-ionic motion have so far been prominently featured in the direct modification of interface chemical

Report from Open Problems Session at OPSFA-13

July 21, 2016
Author(s)
Howard S. Cohl, Richard Askey, Rick Beatson, Charles Dunkl, Christoph Koutschan, Sheehan Olver, Yuan Xu, Wolfgang Zu Castell, Wadim Zudilin, Ted Chihara
We provide the open problems presented at OPSFA-13, Gaithersburg, Maryland, June 4, 2015. Howard Cohl, National Institute of Standards and Technology, has collected these open problems.

Ultraviolet/Ozone as a tool to control grafting density in surface-initiated controlled-radical polymerizations via ablation of bromine

July 21, 2016
Author(s)
Richard J. Sheridan, Sara V. Orski, Shinichiro Muramoto, Christopher M. Stafford, Kathryn L. Beers
We used an ultraviolet-ozone (UVO) cleaner to create substrates for atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) with varying surface initiator coverage. We collected complementary time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) and X-ray

Additive Manufacturing: A Trans-disciplinary Experience

July 20, 2016
Author(s)
Paul W. Witherell, Albert W. Jones, Yan Lu
Traditional manufacturing has long permitted disciplines to operate in isolation: with designers, material suppliers, and manufactures often able to function independently towards the singular goal of creating a product. As products have become
