Fluid interactions with metafilm/metasurfaces for tuning, sensing, and microwave assisted chemical processes

May 25, 2011
Author(s)
Joshua A. Gordon, Christopher L. Holloway, James C. Booth, James R. Baker-Jarvis, David R. Novotny, Sung Kim, Yu Y. Wang
In this paper we demonstrate tunability of a metafilm, which is the two-dimensional equivalent of a metamaterial, also referred to as a metasurface, by changing the permittivity in a micro-fluidic channel that interacts with the metafilm. Numerical

Improving Fatigue Strength of Alumina through Surface Grading

May 9, 2011
Author(s)
Yvonne B. Gerbig, Linlin Ren, Lela Liu, Sanjit Bhowmick, Malvin Janal, Van Thompson, Yu Zhang
Porcelain veneered alumina crown restorations often fail from bulk fracture resulting from radial cracks that initiate at the cementation surface with repeated flexure of the stiffer crown layers on the soft dentin support. We hypothesize that bulk

Characterization of the First Order Nonlinear Stiffened Elasticity of the Piezoelectric Layer in Bulk Acoustic Wave Resonators

May 1, 2011
Author(s)
Juan C. Collado Gomez, Eduard Rocas, Jordi Mateu, Nathan D. Orloff, James C. Booth, Alberto Padillo, Juan Callaghan
This work proposes a procedure to characterize the intrinsic nonlinearities of bulk acoustic wave resonators by performing one port measurements of the second harmonic and second order intermodulation spurious signals. Closed-form expressions have been

NIST Reference Material Scaffolds Characterized for Cell Response

April 24, 2011
Author(s)
Carl G. Simon Jr., Jeff M. Coles
Reference scaffolds characterized for cell response are being developed for use as a standard for biological characterization of new scaffolds. The need for reference scaffolds to serve as a calibration standard between labs has been identified as critical

Modulus-Driven Differentiation of Marrow Stromal Cells in 3D Is Independent of Cytoskeletal Integrity

April 11, 2011
Author(s)
Carl G. Simon Jr., Kaushik Chatterjee, Sapun Parekh, Sheng Lin-Gibson, Nicole M. Moore, Marcus T. Cicerone, Marian F. Young
Cell functions such as proliferation, migration, and differentiation are key physiological processes that are influenced by the physiochemical extracellular environment. We report on the effect of three-dimensional (3D) scaffold modulus on human bone

Photoemission Threshold Spectroscopy: MOS Band alignments

April 7, 2011
Author(s)
Nhan V. Nguyen
In this talk I will 1) briefly review SED’s history of the optical thin metrology project, 2) describe the principle of internal photoemission (IPE) and the applications to determine the band alignments of metal-oxide-semiconductor structures, and 3)

Quantification and Compensation of Unintentional Analyte Aggregation in Electrospray Sampling

March 30, 2011
Author(s)
Mingdong M. Li, Suvajyoti S. Guha, Rebecca A. Zangmeister, Michael J. Tarlov, Michael R. Zachariah
Electrospray (ES) sources are commonly used to introduce non-volatile materials (e.g. nanoparticles, proteins, etc.) in to the gas phase for characterization by mass spectrometry and ion mobility. Recent studies in our group using electrospray ion mobility

The 2010 Materials Research Society (MRS) Fall Meeting

March 30, 2011
Author(s)
Winnie Wong-Ng
The 2010 Materials Research Society (MRS) Fall Meeting took place in the Hynes Convention Center and the Sheraton Boston Hotel, starting the weekend following the Thanksgiving Holidays from November 27 to December 3. This large-scale meeting included forty

Revealing the Interphase in Polymer Nanocomposites

March 16, 2011
Author(s)
Mauro Zammarano, Paul H. Maupin, Li Piin Sung, Jeffrey W. Gilman, Douglas M. Fox
Morphological characterization of polymer nanocomposites is a fundamental challenge that is complicated by multiple length scales. Here, we report a technique for high-throughput monitoring of interphase and dispersion in polymer nanocomposites based on
