Observation of an isomerizing double-well quantum system in the condensed phase

January 10, 2020
Author(s)
Varun Verma, Jascha A. Lau, Arnab Choudhury, Li Chen, Dirk Schwarzer, Alec M. Wodtke
Molecules are quantum objects; therefore, isomerization fundamentally involves quantum states bound within a molecular potential energy function with multiple minima. For isolated gas-phase molecules, eigenstates well above the isomerization saddle points

Expanding the Capability of Microwave Multiplexed Readout for Fast Signals in Microcalorimeters

November 11, 2019
Author(s)
Kelsey M. Morgan, Daniel T. Becker, Douglas A. Bennett, Johnathon D. Gard, Jozsef Imrek, John A. Mates, Christine G. Pappas, Carl D. Reintsema, Daniel R. Schmidt, Joel N. Ullom, Joel C. Weber, Abigail L. Wessels, Daniel S. Swetz
Microwave SQUID multiplexing has become a key technology for reading out large arrays of X-ray and gamma-ray microcalorimeters with mux factors of 100 or more. The desire for fast X-ray pulses that accommodate photon counting rates of hundreds or thousands

Nanobolometer with ultralow noise equivalent power

October 11, 2019
Author(s)
Roope J. Kokkoniemi, Joonas Govenius, Visa Vesterinen, Russell Lake, A M. Gunyho, K-Y Tan, S Simbierowicz, Leif Gronberg, J Lehtinen, M Prunnila, Juha Hassel, Antti Lamminen, O P. Saira, Mikko Mottonen
Since the introduction of bolometers more than a century ago, they have been used in various applications ranging from chemical sensors, consumer electronics, and security to particle physics and astronomy. However, faster bolometers with lower noise are

Comparison of Multiple Methods for Obtaining PO Resistances with Low Uncertainties

September 3, 2019
Author(s)
Kwang Min Yu, Dean G. Jarrett, Albert Rigosi, Shamith Payagala, Marlin E. Kraft
Capabilities for high resistance determinations are essential for calibration of currents below 1 pA, as typically requested in several applications, including semiconductor device characterization, single electron transport, and ion beam technologies

Streaming Batch Eigenupdates for Hardware Neural Networks

August 6, 2019
Author(s)
Brian D. Hoskins, Matthew W. Daniels, Siyuan Huang, Advait Madhavan, Gina C. Adam, Nikolai B. Zhitenev, Jabez J. McClelland, Mark D. Stiles
Neuromorphic networks based on nanodevices, such as metal oxide memristors, phase change memories, and flash memory cells, have generated considerable interest for their increased energy efficiency and density in comparison to graphics processing units

Quantized Pulse Propagation in Josephson Junction Arrays

July 23, 2019
Author(s)
Christine A. Donnelly, Justus Brevik, Nathan Flowers-Jacobs, Anna Fox, Paul Dresselhaus, Peter F. Hopkins, Samuel Benz
We present time-domain electrical measurements and simulations of the quantized voltage pulses that are generated from series-connected Josephson junction (JJ) arrays. The transmission delay of the JJ array can lead to a broadening of the net output pulse

Proceedings of the First Workshop on Standards for Microfluidics

January 28, 2019
Author(s)
Darwin R. Reyes-Hernandez, Henne van Heeren
In the last two decades, the microfluidics/lab-on-a-chip field has evolved from the concept of micro total analysis systems, where systems with integrated pretreatment and analysis of chemicals were envisioned, to what is known today as lab-on-a-chip

Impedance tuning with photoconductors to 40 GHz

January 22, 2019
Author(s)
Jasper A. Drisko, Ari D. Feldman, Franklyn J. Quinlan, James C. Booth, Nathan D. Orloff, Christian J. Long
Light has been widely used to control a variety of microwave devices, including switches, antennas, and detectors. Here, we present a photoconductive device integrated into a coplanar waveguide to tune complex impedances at microwave frequencies with

Effect of Chloride Concentration on Copper Deposition in Through Silicon Vias

January 18, 2019
Author(s)
Trevor Braun, Daniel Josell, Manoj R. Silva, Thomas P. Moffat
This work examines Cu deposition in low chloride, suppressor containing electrolytes that exhibit a transition from passive to active deposition partway down filling features based on the coupling of suppression breakdown and surface topography. The
