Design of an electrostatic feedback for an experiment to measure G

June 20, 2022
Author(s)
Stephan Schlamminger, Leon Chao, Vincent Lee, David B. Newell, Clive Speake
The torsion pendulum at the heart of the BIPM apparatus to measure the gravitational constant, $G$, is used to measure the gravitational torque between source and test-mass assemblies with two methods. In the Cavendish method, the pendulum moves freely. In

A New Spin on Kibble: A Self Calibrating Torque Realization Device at NIST

June 3, 2022
Author(s)
Zane Comden, Stephan Schlamminger, Charles Waduwarage Perera, Frank Seifert, David B. Newell, Jay H. Hendricks, Barbara L. Goldstein, Leon Chao
After the 2019 redefinition of the International System of Units (SI), torque no longer needs to be traceable to a calibrated weight suspended from a known lever arm. Specifically, a modification of the Kibble principle used for realizing the kilogram

Influence of Dimensionality on the Charge Density Wave Phase of 2H-TaSe2

March 23, 2022
Author(s)
Sugata Chowdhury, Albert Rigosi, Heather Hill, David B. Newell, Angela R. Hight Walker, Francesca Tavazza, Andrew Briggs
Metallic transition metal dichalcogenides like tantalum diselenide (TaSe2) exhibit exciting behaviors at low temperatures including the emergence of charge density wave (CDW) states. In this work, density functional theory (DFT) is used to classify the

The Crane Operator's Tricks and other Shenanigans with a Pendulum

February 18, 2022
Author(s)
Stephan Schlamminger, Leon Chao, David B. Newell, Vincent Lee
The dynamics of a swinging payload suspended from a stationary crane can be described as a simple pendulum, typically an unwelcome phenomenon on a construction site. An experienced crane operator can deliver a swinging payload and stop dead on target in a

CODATA Recommended Values of the Fundamental Physical Constants: 2018

January 10, 2022
Author(s)
Eite Tiesinga, Peter J. Mohr, David B. Newell, Barry N. Taylor
We report the 2018 self-consistent values of constants and conversion factors of physics and chemistry recommended by the Committee on Data of the International Science Council (CODATA). The recommended values can also be found at physics.nist.gov

CODATA Recommended Values of the Fundamental Physical Constants: 2018

June 30, 2021
Author(s)
Eite Tiesinga, Peter Mohr, David B. Newell, Barry Taylor
We report the 2018 self-consistent values of constants and conversion factors of physics and chemistry recommended by the Committee on Data of the Interna- tional Science Council (CODATA). The recommended values can also be found at physics.nist.gov

Observation of chiral photocurrent transport in the quantum Hall regime in graphene

May 24, 2021
Author(s)
Glenn S. Solomon, Olivier Gazzano, Bin Cao, Jiuning Hu, David B. Newell, Tobias Huber, Michael Gullans, Mohammad Hafezi, Tobias Grass
Optical excitation provides a powerful tool to investigate non-equilibrium physics in quantum Hall systems. Moreover, the length scale associated with photo-excited charge carries lies between that of local probes and global transport measurements. Here

Graphene Quantum Hall Effect Parallel Resistance Arrays

February 2, 2021
Author(s)
Alireza Panna, I Fan Hu, Mattias Kruskopf, Dinesh K. Patel, Dean G. Jarrett, Chieh-I Liu, Shamith Payagala, Dipanjan Saha, Albert Rigosi, David B. Newell, Chi-Te Liang, Randolph Elmquist
As first recognized in 2010, epitaxial graphene on SiC(0001) provides a platform for quantized Hall resistance (QHR) metrology unmatched by other 2D structures and materials. Here we report graphene parallel QHR arrays, with metrologically precise

The Design of an Instrument to Realize Small Torque at NIST

August 22, 2020
Author(s)
Leon S. Chao, Rafael Marangoni, Frank C. Seifert, Darine El Haddad, Jon R. Pratt, David B. Newell, Stephan Schlamminger
After the recent redefinition of the International System of Units (SI), torque no longer needs to be traceable to a calibrated mass in a gravitational field suspended from a known lever arm and disseminated through a chain of torque transducers.An SI

SI Base Units Relationships Poster

March 3, 2020
Author(s)
Eite Tiesinga, Kristen A. Dill, David B. Newell
This publication is a colorful poster illustrating the relationships of the International System of Units (SI) derived units with special names and symbols and the seven traditional base units. The diagram is aligned with the BIPM SI Brochure, 9th edition

A self-assembled graphene ribbon grown on SiC

January 2, 2020
Author(s)
Bi Y. Wu, Yanfei Yang, Albert Rigosi, Jiuning Hu, Hsin Y. Lee, Guangjun Cheng, Vishal Panchal, Mattias Kruskopf, Hanbyul Jin, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, David B. Newell, Randolph Elmquist, Chi-Te Liang
