Struggling to start over: human rights challenges for Somali Bantu refugees in the United States
(Taylor and Francis, 2015-07-09)Despite persistent challenges to successful refugee resettlement in the United States, migration from Somalia has attracted little widespread attention from human rights scholars. Utilizing longitudinal data from qualitative ... -
Rapid trench initiated recrystallization and stagnation in narrow Cu interconnect lines
(American Institute of Physics, 2015-09-01)Understanding and ultimately controlling the self-annealing of Cu in narrow interconnect lines has remained a top priority in order to continue down-scaling of back-end of the line interconnects. Recently, it was hypothesized ... -
Platinum and palladium oxalates: positive-tone extreme ultraviolet resists
(Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2015-12-24)Here, we present platinum and palladium mononuclear complexes with EUV photosensitivity and lithographic performance. Many platinum and palladium complexes show little or no EUV sensitivity; however, we have found that ... -
Level-set multilayer growth model for predicting printability of buried native extreme ultraviolet mask defects
(Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology B, Nanotechnology and Microelectronics: Materials, Processing, Measurement, and Phenomena, 2016)The availability of defect-free masks is considered to be a critical issue for enabling extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) as the next generation technology. Since completely defect-free masks will be hard to achieve, ... -
Safety and efficacy of megakaryocytes induced from hematopoietic stem cells in murine and nonhuman primate models
(Stem Cells Translational Medicine, 2016)Because of a lack of platelet supply and a U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved platelet growth factor, megakaryocytes have emerged as an effective substitute for alleviating thrombocytopenia. Here, we report the ... -
Tracking quintuple layer oxidation on cleaved Bi2Se3 by optical second-harmonic anisotropy
(Physical Review B, 2016)We find that the major and minor intensity lobes of a measured rotational-anisotropy pattern of optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) from a cleaved Bi2Se3 (111) surface can gradually change with time and eventually ... -
Balanced Plateful: The Pyramid of Evidence
(Association of College and Research Libraries, 2016)The Pyramid of Evidence is a hands-on, active learning exercise which helps students develop a framework with which to evaluate source authority in an academic setting and within discovery tools. It is interactive, rooted ... -
Role of Ge and Si substrates in higher-k tetragonal phase formation and interfacial properties in cyclical atomic layer deposition-anneal Hf1-xZrxO2/Al2O3 thin film stacks
(Journal of Applied Physics, 2016)Using a five-step atomic layer deposition (ALD)-anneal (DADA) process, with 20 ALD cycles of metalorganic precursors followed by 40 s of rapid thermal annealing at 1073 K, we have developed highly crystalline Hf1-xZrxO2 ... -
Surface oxidation of the topological insulator Bi2Se3
(Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology A: Vacuum, Surfaces, and Films, 2016)An understanding of the aging and oxidation of the (0001) surface of Bi2Se3 is critical to a comprehensive physical picture of its topologically protected surface states. Here, the authors contribute new experimental ... -
Modeling ellipsometric measurement of three-dimensional structures with rigorous coupled wave analysis and finite element method simulations
(Journal of Micro/Nanolithography, MEMS and MOEMS, 2016)Using rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) and finite element method (FEM) simulations together, many interesting ellipsometric measurements can be investigated. This work specifically focuses on simulating copper grating ... -
Enhancing one dimensional sensitivity with plasmonic coupling: Erratum
(Optics Express, 2016)Our manuscript contained data from unconverged rigorous coupled wave approximation (RCWA) simulations that resulted in incorrect description of minima locations. Here, converged RCWA simulations are presented with corrected ... -
Genetic Analysis of the Indri Reveals No Evidence of Distinct Subspecies
(Springer, 2016-07-25)Subspecies were traditionally defined by identifying gaps between phenotypes across the geographic range of a species, and may represent important units in the development of conservation strategies focused on preserving ... -
Design and simulation of sensor networks for tracking Wifi users in outdoor urban environments
(Disruptive Technologies in Sensors and Sensor Systems, Proceedings of SPIE, 2017)We present a proof-of-concept investigation into the use of sensor networks for tracking of WiFi users in outdoor urban environments. Sensors are fixed, and are capable of measuring signal power from users’ WiFi devices. ... -
A novel impedance biosensor for measurement of trans-epithelial resistance in cells cultured on nanofiber scaffolds
(MDPI AG, based in Basel, Switzerland, 2017)Nanofibrous scaffolds provide high surface area for cell attachment, and resemble the structure of the collagen fibers which naturally occur in the basement membrane and extracellular matrix. A label free and non-destructive ... -
Electromagnetic trace anomaly in a generalized linear sigma model
(American Physical Society, 2017)We build the electromagnetic trace anomaly effective term for a generalized linear sigma model with two chiral nonets, one with a quark-antiquark structure and the other one with a four-quark content. In the leading order ... -
Detection of silicide formation in nanoscale visualization of interface electrostatics
(Applied Physics Letters, 2017)The ability to detect localized silicide formation at a buried metal semiconductor Schottky interface is demonstrated via nanoscale measurements of the electrostatic barrier. This is accomplished by mapping the Schottky ... -
Scalable fabrication of coupled NV center - photonic crystal cavity systems by self-aligned N ion implantation
(2017, 2017)Towards building large-scale integrated photonic systems for quantum information processing, spatial and spectral alignment of single quantum systems to photonic nanocavities is required. Here, we demonstrate spatially ... -
Variation in Attitudes toward Being a Mother by Race/Ethnicity and Education among Women in the United States
(Sociological Perspectives, 2017)Do differences in experiences of motherhood (e.g., number of children, age at first child, and relationship type) by race/ethnicity and social class mean that attitudes toward motherhood also vary by social location? We ... -
