The goal of the millimeter-wave wireless metrology project is to develop the metrology for the next-generation mobile communications at millimeter-wave
Modern imaging systems produce massive amount of data that can be used to obtain critical 3D information on targeted measurement objects (nodules), including
Near-field scanning probe microwave microscopy (NSSM) offers great potential to facilitate characterization, development, and modeling of novel materials. Based
Waveform metrology aims to develop new techniques and measurement services at bandwidths currently unattainable for waveform verification, to characterize high
Staff members of the Statistical Engineering Division regularly offer short courses on uncertainty analysis, design of experiments, and other topics in
In this project, we investigate appropriate uncertainty analysis and splicing algorithms for spectral data, especially fluorescence spectroscopy calibration, to
NIST is making advances in the science and technology for identification of firearms and tool marks; SED provides statistical analyses and designs as a vital
SED has had a long and extensive collaboration with the Materials Measurement Laboratory in working toward the certification of standard reference materials
NIST is developing Wide Scale Digital Optical Microscopy (WISDOM) as an advanced measurement capability for imaging induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and
The endocrine system orchestrates major developmental, reproductive, and other physiological changes throughout life. A detailed analysis of hormone suites can
Photopolymerization, particularly in crosslinked systems, proceeds via a complex reaction-diffusion process. Initiation, propagation (including those leading to
We are resolving critical measurement issues that prevent researchers from reliably predicting the chemical and physical storage stability of biomacromolecules
Imagine an MRI or CT technique that can peer inside structural materials (e.g., steels) and visualize the strain experienced by structures as they support loads
Our objective is to develop metrology techniques for characterizing mechanical strain in semiconductor devices as well as reference materials for assessing the
Mechanical strain impacts the performance of semiconductor devices. Manufacturing processes must be carefully controlled for strain to achieve high-yield and
This is a competence project to investigate new testing strategies for embedded software. The potential customers are US electronic instrument manufactures
Current terminology used to describe materials data is heterogeneous, redundant, and often ambiguous. The lack of common, community-based terminology hinders
In 2013, we hit a roadblock. We understood that spin waves propagated through materials, but we didn't understand why some interfaces transmitted these waves so
We are witnessing the emergence of a web based "data rich" era on chemical and biological compounds. In order to make significant advances in this "data rich"
Organic photovoltaics (OPV) represents the most challenging use case for soft matter ICME within the CHiMaD portfolio of use cases. Recent empirical advances in
Advanced manufacturing processes create novel materials and components with superior properties and performance, enhancing the precision, efficiency, and
