Gas Flow Standards and Their Uncertainty

December 12, 2022
Author(s)
John D. Wright, Aaron Johnson, Michael R. Moldover, Shin-ichi Nakao
We review diverse types of gas flow standards that are used to calibrate other gas flow meters. For each type of standard, we describe the principles of its operation and at least one hardware example. We identify the practical limits of the example's

High-Fidelity State Preparation, Quantum Control, and Readout of an Isotopically Enriched Silicon Spin Qubit

December 12, 2022
Author(s)
Adam Mills, Charlie Guinn, Michael Gullans, Mayer Feldman, Anthony Sigillito, M. Rakher, J. Kerckhoff, A. C. Jackson, Jason Petta
Quantum systems must be prepared, controlled, and measured with high fidelity in order to per- form complex quantum algorithms. Control fidelities have greatly improved in silicon spin qubits, but state preparation and readout fidelities have generally

New Ritz Wavelengths and Transition Probabilities for Parity-Forbidden, Singly Ionised Nickel [Ni ii] Lines of Astrophysical Interest Christian P.

December 12, 2022
Author(s)
Christian P. Clear, Peter Uylings, Ton Raassen, Gillian Nave, Juliet C. Pickering
We report accurate Ritz wavelengths for parity-forbidden [Ni ii] transitions, derived from energy levels determined using high-resolution Fourier transform spectroscopy. Transitions between the 17 lowest Ni ii energy levels of even parity produced Ritz

Ultra-low loss quantum photonic circuits integrated with single quantum emitters

December 12, 2022
Author(s)
Ashish Chanana, Hugo Larocque, Renan Moreira, Jacques Carolan, Biswarup Guha, Emerson Goncalves De Melo, Vikas Anant, Jin Dong Song, Dirk Englund, Daniel Blumenthal, Marcelo Davanco, Kartik Srinivasan
Photon-based photonic quantum information systems require both scalable ultra-low loss photonic circuits and high-flux sources of single-photons. Direct integration of these sources and circuits is critical to realizing quantum systems that are scalable

Wind-Driven Fire Spread to a Structure from Fences and Mulch

December 12, 2022
Author(s)
Kathryn Butler, Erik L. Johnsson, Alexander Maranghides, Shonali Nazare, Marco G. Fernandez, Rachel McIntyre, William Saar, Mariusz Zarzecki, Wei Tang, Eric Auth, Michael Pryor, Colin McLaughlin
A series of field experiments was conducted to examine the effects on fire spread toward a structure for combustible fences and mulch under conditions that may be encountered in a wildland-urban interface (WUI) fire. The fire behavior of a variety of

A Macroscopic Mass From Quantum Behavior In An Integrated Approach

December 10, 2022
Author(s)
Frank Seifert, Alireza Panna, Lorenz Keck, Leon Chao, Shamith Payagala, Dean G. Jarrett, Dipanjan Saha, Randolph Elmquist, Stephan Schlamminger, Albert Rigosi, David B. Newell, Darine El Haddad
The revision of the International System of Units (SI) on May 20th, 2019, has enabled new improved experiments to consolidate and simplify electrical and mechanical metrology currently underway. Historically within the SI, the definition of energy was only

Supply Chain Assurance: Validating the Integrity of Computing Devices

December 9, 2022
Author(s)
Nakia R. Grayson, Murugiah Souppaya, Andrew Regenscheid, Tim Polk, Christopher Brown, Karen Scarfone, Chelsea Deane
Product integrity and the ability to distinguish trustworthy products is a critical foundation of C-SCRM. Authoritative information regarding the provenance and integrity of components provides a strong basis for trust in a computing device whether it is a

Benefits of Smart Grid Interoperability

December 8, 2022
Author(s)
Avi Gopstein, Cuong Nguyen, Cameron Brooks, Michael Hughes, Marguerite Behringer, Wendy Klarman, Chris Villarreal, Danielle Sass Byrnett
The electricity grid is changing. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has indicated that operating a modern grid will involve a diverse portfolio of energy resources and multiple economic structures that will rely on, and ultimately

2D honeycomb transformation into dodecagonal quasicrystals driven by electrostatic forces

December 7, 2022
Author(s)
Sebastian Schenk, Oliver Krahn, Eric J. Cockayne, Holger Meyerheim, Marc de Boissieu, Stefan Foerster, Wolf Widdra
Dodecagonal oxide quasicrystals are well established as examples of long range aperiodic order in two dimensions. However, despite investigations by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), low-energy electron microscopy

Health Assessment Measurements Quality Assurance Program: Exercise 7 Final Report

December 5, 2022
Author(s)
Chuck Barber, Carolyn Burdette, Hugh Hayes, Monique Johnson, Shaun Kotoski, Jacolin Murray, Melissa M. Phillips, Kate Rimmer, Andrea Yarberry, Laura J. Wood
The Health Assessment Measurements Quality Assurance Program (HAMQAP) was launched in collaboration with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) in 2017. HAMQAP was established to enable laboratories to improve the

Efficient chip-based optical parametric oscillators from 590 nm to 1150 nm

December 2, 2022
Author(s)
Jordan Stone, Xiyuan Lu, Gregory Moille, Kartik Srinivasan
Optical parametric oscillators are a ubiquitous technology used to generate coherent light at frequencies not accessible by conventional laser gain. However, chip-based parametric oscillators operating in the visible spectrum have suffered from pump-to

Integrated Sensing and Communication: Enabling Techniques, Applications, Tools and Datasets, Standardization, and Future Directions

December 1, 2022
Author(s)
Jian Wang, Neeraj Varshney, Camillo Gentile, Steve Blandino, Jack Chuang, Nada T. Golmie
The design of integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) systems has drawn recent attention for its capacity to solve a number of challenges. Indeed, ISAC can enable numerous benefits, such as the sharing of spectrum resources, hardware, and software, and
