Synthesis and Characterization of Cobalt/Gold Bimetallic Nanoparticles

April 1, 2007
Author(s)
Guangjun Cheng, Angela R. Hight Walker
Cobalt/gold (Co/Au) bimetallic nanoparticles are prepared by synthesizing Au via chemical reduction in the presence of pre-synthesized Co nanoparticles. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectrometry, and a

Comparative Measures of Single Wall Carbon Nanotube Dispersion

September 14, 2006
Author(s)
Jeffrey A. Fagan, Brian Landi, Idan Mandelbaum, Vardhan Bajpai, Barry J. Bauer, Kalman D. Migler, Jeffrey R. Simpson, Angela R. Hight Walker, Ryan Raffaelle, Erik K. Hobbie
Model polymer composites of DNA wrapped single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) dispersed in polyacrylic acid are used for a systematic comparison of the different metrologies currently used to evaluate SWNT dispersion. Application of a pH-controlled

Method for Measuring the Raman Gain Tensor in Optical Fiber

April 7, 2006
Author(s)
Idan Mandelbaum, M Bolshtyansky, T F. Heinz, Angela R. Hight Walker
In this paper we introduce a technique to measure the tensor properties of the Raman gain in a short piece (10m) of silica based polarization maintaining optical fiber. We present the results of the measurement and show agreement with new and previous bulk

Quantitative, Interactive Measurement of Tissue Engineering Scaffold Structure Using Immersive Visualization

January 1, 2006
Author(s)
Jeffrey Fagan, Erik K. Hobbie, Brian Landi, Idan Mandelbaum, Vardhan Bajpai, Barry J. Bauer, Kalman D. Migler, Jeffrey R. Simpson, Angela R. Hight Walker, Ryan Raffaelle
At NIST, we are using new approaches to better understand and quantify the structure of tissue engineering scaffolds. This approach uses immersive visualization (IV) and is inherently three dimensional, multivariate and interactive, providing real-time

Rotational Spectra, Conformational Structures and Dipole Moments of Thiodiglycol by Jet-Cooled FTMW and Ab Initio Calculations

May 1, 2004
Author(s)
L H. Xu, Q Liu, R D. Suenram, Francis J. Lovas, Angela R. Hight Walker, J O. Jensen, A C. Samuels
The rotational spectra of three low-energy conformers of thiodiglycol (TDG) (HOCH2CH2SCH2CH2OH) have been measured in a molecular beam using a pulsed-nozzle Fourier-transform microwave spectrometer. To determine the likely conformational structures with ab

Rotational Spectra of the Diastereomers of Soman

April 1, 2004
Author(s)
R D. Suenram, R S. DaBell, Angela R. Hight Walker, D J. Lavrich, David F. Plusquellic, M W. Ellzy, J M. Lochner, L Cash, J O. Jensen, A C. Samuels
The pure rotational spectrum of the nerve agent Soman has been recorded and assigned using a pulsed molecular beam Fourier transform microwave spectrometer. The spectrum consists of transitions from two different isomers that are likely the [SS] (or [RR])

Continuous-Wave Terahertz Spectroscopy of Plasmas and Biomolecules

March 1, 2004
Author(s)
David F. Plusquellic, T M. Korter, Gerald T. Fraser, R J. Lavrich, Eric C. Benck, C R. Bucher, Angela R. Hight Walker, J L. Domenech
Continuous-wave linear-absorption spectroscopy based on THz radiation generated by solid-state photomixers has been applied to the investigation of the dynamics of biomolecules in polyethylene matrices and to line shape studies of HF for diagnostics of
