Morphology of Thin-Film Nafion on Carbon as an Analogue of Fuel Cell Catalyst Layers

January 11, 2024
Author(s)
Corey Randall, Lianfeng Zou, Howard Wang, Jingshu Hui, Joaquin Rodriguez-Lopez, Melodie Chen-Glasser, Joseph A. Dura, Steven DeCaluwe
Species transport in thin-film Nafion heavily influences proton exchange membrane (PEMFC) performance, particularly in low-platinum-loaded cells. Literature suggests phase-segregated nano-structures in hydrated Nafion thin films can reduce species mobility

Multi-code Benchmark on Ti K-edge X-ray Absorption Spectra of Ti-O Compounds

January 11, 2024
Author(s)
Fanchen Meng, Benedikt Maurer, Fabian Peschel, Sencer Selcuk, Xiaohui Qu, Mark S Hybertsen, Christian Vorwerk, Claudia Draxl, John Vinson, Deyu Lu
X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is an element-specific materials characterization technique that is sensitive to structural and electronic properties. First-principles simulated XAS has been widely used as a powerful tool to interpret experimental

Calculating Pairwise Similarity of Polymer Ensembles via Earth Mover's Distance

January 10, 2024
Author(s)
Jiale Shi, Dylan Walsh, Weizhong Zou, Nathan Rebello, Michael Deagen, Katharina Fransen, Xian Gao, Debra Audus, Bradley Olsen
Synthetic polymers, in contrast to small molecules and deterministic biomacromolecules, are typically ensembles composed of polymer chains with varying numbers, lengths, sequences, chemistry, and topologies. While numerous approaches exist for measuring

Characterizing Styrene Monomer and Oligomers by SEC/MALS/VISC/DRI

January 10, 2024
Author(s)
Andre Striegel
Worldwide polystyrene (PS) production in 2020 was approximately 27 million metric tons, distributed among many nations, making it one of the most heavily imported and exported chemicals. Commercially produced PS usually possesses a broad molar mass

Threshold and Laser Conversion in Nanostructured-Resonator Parametric Oscillators

January 10, 2024
Author(s)
Haixin Liu, Grant Brodnik, Jizhao Zang, David Carlson, Jennifer Black, Scott Papp
We explore optical parametric oscillation (OPO) in nanophotonic resonators, enabling arbitrary, nonlinear phase matching and nearly lossless control of energy conversion. Such pristine OPO laser converters are determined by nonlinear light-matter

Photonic Online Learning

January 9, 2024
Author(s)
Sonia Buckley, Adam McCaughan, Bakhrom Oripov
Training in machine learning necessarily involves more operations than inference only, with higher precision, more memory, and added computational complexity. In hardware, many implementations side-step this issue by designing "inference-only" hardware

Recommended electron-impact excitation and ionization cross sections for Be II

January 9, 2024
Author(s)
DIPTI DIPTI, Christian Hill, Dmitry Fursa, Haadi Umer, Igor Bray, Yuri Ralchenko
An overview of the current status of electron-impact excitation and ionization cross sections for Be II is given and the recommended data sets for use in plasma modeling are presented. Accurate cross sections between the lowest 14 atomic terms of 1s2nl (n

Antivesiculation and Complete Unbinding of Tail-Tethered Lipids

January 8, 2024
Author(s)
Kuo-Chih Shih, Geoffray Leriche, Chung-Hao Liu, Jibao He, Vijay John, John Barker, Michihiro Nagao, Lin Yang, Jerry Yang, Mu-Ping Nieh
We report the effect of tail-tethering on vesiculation and complete unbinding of bilayered membranes. Amphiphilic molecules of a bolalipid, resembling the tail-tethered molecular structure of archaeal lipids, with two identical zwitterionic

Determination of D9-THC, THCA, D8-THC, and total D9-THC in 53 Smokable Hemp Plant Products by Liquid Chromatography and Photodiode Array Detection

January 8, 2024
Author(s)
Walter Brent Wilson, Aaron Urbas, MARYAM ABDUL-RAHMAN, Arianna Romares, Ewelina Mistek-Morabito
The passage of the 2018 Farm Bill has led to an estimated value of $824M for hemp production in the United States (US) in 2021 with an approximately 76% of it focused on floral hemp that is used to produce hemp-derived finished products such as smokable

Conductive Surface States and Kondo Exhaustion in Insulating YbIr3Si7

January 7, 2024
Author(s)
Macy Stavinoha, C.-L. Huang, W. Phelan, Alannah Hallas, V. Loganathan, M. Michiardi, J. Falke, Sergey Zhdanovich, D. Takegami, C.-E. Liu, K. Tsuei, C. Chen, Long Qian, Nicholas Ng, Jeffrey Lynn, Qingzhen Huang, Franziska Weickert, Vivien Zapf, Katharine Larsen, Patricia Sparks, James Eckert, Anand Puthirath, Hsiang-Hsi Kung, Tor Pedersen, Sergey Gorovikov, A. Damascelli, L. Tjeng, C. Hooley, Andriy Nevidomskyy, E. Morosan
The interplay of Kondo screening and magnetic ordering in strongly correlated materials containing local moments is a subtle problem. Usually the number of conduction electrons per unit cell matches or exceeds the number of moments, and a Kondo-screened

Magnetism and Fermiology of Kagome Magnet YMn6Sn4Ge2

January 7, 2024
Author(s)
Hari Bhandari, Rebecca Dally, Peter E. Siegfried, Resham Regmi, Kirrily Rule, Songxue Chi, Jeffrey Lynn, I. Mazin, Nirmal J. Ghimire
Kagome lattice magnets are an interesting class of materials as they can host topological properties in their magnetic and electronic structures. YMn6Sn6 is one such compound in which a series of competing magnetic phases is stabilized by an applied

Deep learning approaches for time-resolved laser absorptivity prediction

January 5, 2024
Author(s)
Runbo Jiang, John Smith, Yu-Tsen Yi, Tao Sun, Brian Simonds, Anthony D. Rollett
The quantification of the amount of absorbed light is essential for understanding laser-material interactions and melt pool dynamics in order to minimize defects in additive manufactured metal components. The geometry of a vapor depression, also known as a

Adversarial Machine Learning: A Taxonomy and Terminology of Attacks and Mitigations

January 4, 2024
Author(s)
Apostol Vassilev, Alina Oprea, Alie Fordyce, Hyrum Andersen
This NIST AI report develops a taxonomy of concepts and defines terminology in the field of adversarial machine learning (AML). The taxonomy is built on survey of the AML literature and is arranged in a conceptual hierarchy that includes key types of ML
