We report two novel fabrication techniques, as well as spectral transmission and propagation loss measurements of the subwavelength plastic wires with highly porous (up to 86%) and non-porous transverse geometries. The two fabrication…
Accurate measurements of the cross-plane thermal conductivity {\Lambda}_cross of a high-thermal-conductivity thin film on a low-thermal-conductivity ({\Lambda}_s) substrate (e.g., {\Lambda}_cross/{\Lambda}_s>20) are challenging, due to the…
We study the mechanisms of slip transfer at a grain boundary, in titanium, using Differential Aperture X-ray Laue Micro-diffraction (DAXM). This 3D characterization tool enables measurement of the full (9-component) Nye lattice curvature…
Optical diffraction tomography (ODT) has emerged as a powerful label-free three-dimensional (3D) bioimaging techniques for observing living cells and thin tissue layers. We report a new reflection-mode ODT (rODT) method for imaging thick…
Thermoelectric properties of two-dimensional (2D) Dirac materials are calculated within linearized Boltzmann transport theory and relaxation time approximation. We find that the gapless 2D Dirac material exhibits poorer thermoelectric…
For measurements designed to accurately determine layer thickness, there is a natural trade-off between sensitivity to optical thickness and lateral resolution due to the angular ray distribution required for a focused beam. We demonstrate…
Nanoscale surface analysis of 1 micrometer thick high entropy alloys (HEAs) was carried out using nano-IR for hyperspectral imaging and single point spectroscopy in the 700-1700 1/cm spectral range. Nano-IR is based on the detection of…
Graphene's structure bears on both the material's electronic properties and fundamental questions about long range order in two-dimensional crystals. We present an analytic calculation of selected area electron diffraction from multi-layer…
Nanoscale topological polar textures promise new functionalities for ferroelectric memories and logic, yet their three-dimensional structure and mesoscale organization remain experimentally inaccessible. Here we introduce depth-resolved…
Within this paper we show the importance of accurate implementations of the RKKY interactions for antiferromagnetically coupled ferromagnetic layers with thicknesses exceeding the exchange length. In order to evaluate the performance of…
This manuscript describes our experimental work being carried out to develop the previously published T-ERDA technique to measure H distribution in solids [Yamazaki et al., AIP Adv. 9 (2019) 105111]. From the experiments for the samples…
Sub-micron-thick layers of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) exhibit high in-plane thermal conductivity, useful optical properties, and serve as dielectric encapsulation layers with low electrostatic inhomogeneity for graphene devices. Despite…
Using high-resolution ground-based transmission spectroscopy to probe exoplanetary atmospheres is difficult due to the inherent telluric contamination from absorption in Earth's atmosphere. A variety of methods have previously been used to…
We have performed angle-dependent near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure measurements in the Auger electron yield mode on the correlated quasi-one-dimensional organic conductor TTF-TCNQ in order to determine the orientation of the…
Context: Dynamical studies of irradiated circumstellar disks require an accurate treatment of radiation transport to, for example, properly determine cooling and fragmentation properties. The radiation transport algorithm should be as fast…
Terahertz bands enable ultra-broadband wireless communications but require compact, low-cost, and efficient transceiver modules. Conventional implementations based on metallic waveguides or silicon lenses suffer from high loss, bulkiness,…
On-chip THz spectroscopy enables quantitative measurements of the optical conductivity of sub-wavelength 2D materials by tightly confining THz fields in metallic transmission line structures interfaced to the material. However, because the…
Determining accurate effective temperatures of stars buried in the dust-obscured Galactic regions is extremely difficult from photometry. Fortunately, high-resolution infrared spectroscopy is a powerful tool for determining the temperatures…
Three types of BaTiO3 core - amorphous nano-shell composite ceramics were processed from the same core-shell powder by standard sintering, spark-plasma sintering and two-step sintering techniques and characterized by XRD, HRSEM and…
Quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) materials hold promise for future electronics because of their unique band structures that result in electronic and mechanical properties sensitive to crystal strains in all three dimensions. Quantifying…
