STM patterned nanowire measurements using photolithographically defined implants in Si(100)

January 29, 2018
Author(s)
Aruna N. Ramanayaka, Hyun Soo Kim, Ke Tang, Xiqiao Wang, Richard M. Silver, Michael D. Stewart, Joshua M. Pomeroy
Using photolithographically defined implant wires for electrical connections, we demonstrate measurement of a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) patterned nanoscale electronic device on Si(100), eliminating the onerous alignment procedures and electron

Highly Efficient Rapid Annealing of Thin Polar Polymer Film Ferroelectric Devices at Sub-Glass Transition Temperature

December 18, 2017
Author(s)
Vasileia Georgiou, Dmitry Veksler, Jason T. Ryan, Jason P. Campbell, Pragya R. Shrestha, D. E. Ioannou, Kin P. Cheung
An unexpected rapid anneal of electrically active defects in an ultra-thin (15.5 nm) polar polyimide film at and below glass transition temperature (Tg) is reported. The polar polymer is the gate dielectric of a thin-film-transistor (TFT). Gate leakage

Electromagnetic Scattering from Individual Crumpled Graphene Flakes: A Characteristic Modes Approach

September 14, 2017
Author(s)
Edward J. Garboczi, Jack F. Douglas, Luis Fernando Vargas Lara, Ahmed M. Hassan, Deb Chatterjee, Kalyan Durbhakula, Md Gaffar
Graphene flakes in real composites are rarely perfectly flat, and often exhibit complicated crumpled shapes. Therefore, the goal of this work was to quantify the electromagnetic scattering characteristics of individual crumpled graphene flakes with shapes

Microstructure Knowledge Systems for Capturing Process-Structure Evolution Linkages

June 14, 2017
Author(s)
James A. Warren, Daniel Wheeler, David Brough, Surya Kalidindi
This paper develops and demonstrates a novel data science framework for capturing and communicating critical information regarding the evolution of material structure in spatiotemporal multiscale simulations of various processing operations employed by the

Software Tools for Uncertainty Evaluation in VNA Measurements: A Comparative Study

June 8, 2017
Author(s)
Gustavo Avolio, Dylan Williams, Michael Frey, Sarah B. Streett, Dominique Schreurs, Andrea Ferrero, Michael Dieudonne
We compared three software tools designed for scattering-parameter measurement uncertainty evaluation. These tools propagate uncertainty to calibrated S-parameters by means of a sensitivity analysis. We also validated the sensitivity analysis with Monte

Resonant Acoustic Frequency Shifts Associated with Cracks in Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors

June 6, 2017
Author(s)
Ward L. Johnson, Jaemi Herzberger, Sudook A. Kim, Kirsten L. Peterson, Paul R. Heyliger, Grady S. White
Resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS) was used in this study to measure shifts in resonant frequency that arise from the presence of cracks in barium-titanate-based multi-layer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs). This work was motivated by an industrial need for

Dynamic Appliances Scheduling in Collaborative MicroGrids System

May 1, 2017
Author(s)
Hamid Gharavi, Hasnae Bilil
Abstract—In this paper a new approach which is based on a collaborative system of MicroGrids (MG’s), is proposed to enable household appliance scheduling. To achieve this, appliances are categorized into flexible and non-flexible Deferrable Loads (DL’s)

Life Time Dosimetric Assessment for Mice and Rats Exposed to Cell Phone Radiation in Reverberation Chambers

March 17, 2017
Author(s)
Perry F. Wilson, John M. Ladbury, Galen H. Koepke, Yijian Gong, Myles Capstick, Keven Kuhn, David L. McCormick, Ronald L. Melnick, Niels Kuster
In this paper, we present a detailed life time dosimetry analysis for individually housed rodents exposed to radio frequency (RF) signals. The unrestrained rodents were exposed in reverberation chambers for 2 years at three whole-body averaged specific
