Persistent phosphorescence induced by ultraviolet light in polycrystalline HfO2 and enhancement of the phosphorescence by sintering are investigated.

The binding thermodynamics of the stereoisomers of fenoterol, (R,R′)-, (S,S′)-, (R,S′)-, and (S,R′)-fenoterol, to the β2-adrenergic receptor (β2-AR) have been determined.

Various types of energy harvesting generators based on dielectric elastomers have been tested.

We present recent investigations of metal-anode water-activated galvanic cells, specifically water-activated Alcells using inorganic alkali peroxides and solid organic oxidizers, in a semi-fuel cell configuration.

SRI International has been working toward development of a novel scheme for standoff detection of explosive chemicals that uses infrared (IR) laser evaporation of surfacebound explosive followed by ultraviolet (UV)…

Methods were developed to fabricate tip arrays with integrated gate electrodes, separated from the substrate with sufficient dielectric to sustain high voltages.

This paper describes the experimental and modeling program at Sandia National Laboratories and presents results obtained for various barrier configurations.

We demonstrate optical manipulation of nanoliter aqueous droplets containing surfactant or lipid molecules and immersed in an organic liquid using near infrared light.

Our objective is to determine the force requirements, optimal vector, and appropriate materials of a novel eyelid sling device that will be used to rehabilitate eyelid closure (blink) in congenital…

The molecular constants of the gaseous nitrate were estimated in the absence of experimental values in an attempt to derive its enthalpies of sublimation and formation.

This paper presents a forensic and safety study that focuses on slip and fall.
