Signal Processing Techniques for Smart Grid: Scanning the Issue

September 2, 2012
Author(s)
Hamid Gharavi
This is an editorial article for a special issue on Smart Grid. The main emphasis of this issue is the technical challenges of the Smart Grid from a signal processing perspective. Therefore, the selected articles aim at articulating signal processing

A Sub-Sampling Digital PM/AM Noise Measurement System

September 1, 2012
Author(s)
Craig W. Nelson, David A. Howe
A digital phase/amplitude modulation (PM/AM) noise measurement systems (DNMS) implementing field progammable gate array (FPGA) based digital down converters (DDCs), and 250 MHz analog to digital converters (ADCs) is reported. Measurements in the first

Disentangling the effects of polymer coatings on silver nanoparticle agglomeration, dissolution, and toxicity to determine mechanisms of nanotoxicity

September 1, 2012
Author(s)
Justin M. Zook, Melissa D. Halter, Danielle Cleveland, Stephen E. Long
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are frequently coated by a variety of polymers, which may affect various intertwined mechanisms of toxicity, including agglomeration and dissolution rate. Here, we measure how citrate, dextran, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)

Evaluation of Low-Ohmic Resistance Measurement Capabilities Between VSL and NIST

September 1, 2012
Author(s)
Marlin E. Kraft, Jan van der Beek, Gert Rietveld
The low-ohmic resistance measurement capa¬bilities of VSL and NIST were compared using a set of resistors with values 100 mOhm, 10 mOhm, 1 mOhm, and 100 mOhm respectively. The measurement data of both laboratories generally agree well within the combined

Expression and characterization of 15N-labeled human C-reactive protein in Escherichia coli and Pichia pastoris for use in isotope-dilution mass spectrometry

September 1, 2012
Author(s)
Eric L. Kilpatrick, Wei-Li Liao, Johanna Camara, Illarion V. Turko, David M. Bunk
Isotope dilution mass spectrometry using stable isotope labeled internal standards is unsurpassed in its ability to quantify analytes with accuracy and low measurement uncertainty. The extension of this technique to proteins relies upon the expression of

Overview of the Structural Design of World Trade Center 1, 2, and 7

September 1, 2012
Author(s)
Therese P. McAllister, Fahim Sadek, John L. Gross, Jason D. Averill, Richard G. Gann
This paper summarizes the primary structural systems which comprised World Trade Center 1, World Trade Center 2, and World Trade Center 7. The buildings were destroyed in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. This paper describes the four major

UV-Assisted Alcohol Sensing Using SnO_(2) Functionalized GaN Nanowire Devices

September 1, 2012
Author(s)
Ritu Bajpai, Abhishek Motayed, Albert Davydov, Vladimir Oleshko, Geetha G. Aluri, Kristine A. Bertness, Mulpuri V. Rao, Mona E. Zaghloul
A chemiresistor type sensor for selective alcohol sensing has been realized from gallium nitride nanowires (NWs) functionalized with sputter-deposited tin dioxide nanoparticles. Two-terminal devices were fabricated using standard microfabrication

Big Data Issues in Quantitative Imaging

Modeling Extreme Bottom-Up Filling of Through Silicon Vias

August 29, 2012
Author(s)
Daniel Josell, Daniel Wheeler, Thomas P. Moffat
Extreme bottom-up superfilling of through silicon vias (TSV) was recently described wherein deposition occurs on the bottom surface of the vias with negligible deposition on their sidewalls or the field around them. The process uses a deposition

Probing coherence in microcavity frequency combs via optical pulse shaping

August 29, 2012
Author(s)
Fahmida Ferdous, Houxun H. Miao, Pei-Hsun Wang, Daniel E. Leaird, Kartik Srinivasan, Lei Chen, Vladimir Aksyuk, Andrew M. Weiner
Recent investigations of microcavity frequency combs based on cascaded four-wave mixing have revealed a link between the evolution of the optical spectrum and the observed temporal coherence. Here we study a silicon nitride microresonator for which the

Review: Biological Imaging Software Tools

August 29, 2012
Author(s)
Anne L. Plant, Kevin Eliceiri, Anne Carpenter
Few technologies are more widespread in modern biological laboratories than imaging by microscopy. Advancements in optical technologies and instrumentation over the past twenty years have led to massive improvements in the resolution, specificity
