On Convergence of the Upper Bound on the Ratio of Gain to Quality Factor

December 6, 2021
Author(s)
Alex Yuffa, Marc Valdez, Benoit Derat
An antenna's practical far-field distance can be estimated from the upper bound on the ratio of its gain to quality factor. This upper bound is an infinite series that can be truncated based on the desired far-field accuracy. We investigate the convergence

Computational scanning tunneling microscope image database

December 5, 2021
Author(s)
Kamal Choudhary, Kevin Garrity, Charles Camp, Sergei Kalinin, Rama Vasudevan, Maxim Ziatdinov, Francesca Tavazza
We introduce the systematic database of scanning tunneling microscope (STM) images obtained using density functional theory (DFT) for two-dimensional (2D) materials, calculated using the Tersoff-Hamann method. It currently contains data for 716 exfoliable

How Austenitic is a Martensitic Steel Produced by Laser Powder Bed Fusion? A Cautionary Tale

December 2, 2021
Author(s)
Fan Zhang, Mark R. Stoudt, Souzan Hammadi, Carelyn E. Campbell, Eric A. Lass, Maureen E. Williams
Accurate phase fraction analysis is an essential element of microstructural characterization of alloys and often serves as a basis to quantify effects such as heat treatment or mechanical deformation. Additive manufacturing (AM) of metals, due to the

Bayesian automated weighting of aggregated DFT, MD, and experimental data for candidate thermodynamic models of aluminum with uncertainty quantification

December 1, 2021
Author(s)
Francesca Tavazza, Chandler A. Becker, Ursula R. Kattner, Joshua Gabriel, Noah Palson, Thien Duong, Marius Stan
Atomic-scale modeling methods such as density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) can predict the thermodynamic properties of materials at a lower cost than experimental measurements. However, their regular usage in thermodynamic model

Characterization of Halogenated Organic Compounds in Pelagic Sharks and Sea Turtles Using a Nontargeted Approach

December 1, 2021
Author(s)
Aikebaier Renaguli, Sujan Fernando, Thomas Holsen, Philip Hopke, Douglas Adams, George Balazs, T Jones, Thierry Work, Jennifer Lynch, Bernard Crimmins
Halogenated organic compounds (HOCs) in marine species collected from the Atlantic Ocean [3 shortfin mako (Isurus oxyrinchus) and 1 porbeagle (Lamna nasus)], and 12 sea turtles collected from the Pacific Ocean [3 loggerhead (Caretta caretta), 3 green

Highly conserved s2m element of SARS-CoV-2 dimerizes via a kissing complex and interacts with host miRNA-1307-3p

December 1, 2021
Author(s)
Joshua A. Imperatore, Caylee L. Cunningham, Kendy A. Pellegrene, Robert Brinson, John Marino, Jeffery D. Evanseck, Mihaela R. Mihailescu
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic highlights the necessity for a more fundamental understanding of the coronavirus life cycle. The causative agent of the disease, SARS-CoV-2, is being studied extensively from a structural standpoint in order to gain insight

Hydrogen in nonstoichiometric cubic titanium monoxides: X-ray and neutron diffraction, neutron vibrational spectroscopy and NMR studies

December 1, 2021
Author(s)
A. V. Skripov, A. V. Soloninin, A. A. Valeeva, A. I. Gusev, A. A. Rempel, Hui Wu, Terrence J. Udovic
Hydrogen-induced changes in the properties of transition-metal oxides have attracted much recent attention due to numerous applications of these materials including catalysis, H2 production, low-temperature H2 sensing, solar cells, and air purification

Point-source atom interferometer gyroscope

December 1, 2021
Author(s)
Azure Hansen, Yun-Jhih Chen, John Kitching, Elizabeth Donley
Point-source atom interferometry (PSI) with cold atoms in a centimeter-scale vacuum cell has applications in inertial navigation. PSI uses light pulses in a Raman configuration to interfere atomic wavepackets in an expanding cloud of laser-cooled atoms

Thermal Shrinkage Reveals the Feasibility of Pulse-delay Photocuring Technique
