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 ... -
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 ... -
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, ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Modeling the copper microstructure and elastic anisotropy and studying its impact on reliability in nanoscale interconnects
(Mechanics of Advanced Materials and Modern Processes, 2017)Copper is the primary metal used in integrated circuit manufacturing of today. Even though copper is face centered cubic it has significant mechanical anisotropy depending on the crystallographic orientations. Copper metal ... -
Spectral element method for stability analysis of milling processes with discontinuous time-periodicity
(International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology, 2017)This paper presents an application of the spectral element method for the stability analysis of regenerative machine tool chatter models in milling operations. An extension of the spectral element method is introduced in ... -
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. ... -
Atomic layer deposited ultrathin metal nitride barrier layers for ruthenium interconnect applications
(Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology A: Vacuum, Surfaces, and Films, 2017)Resistance capacitance time delay in Cu interconnects is becoming a significant factor requiring further performance improvements in future nanoelectronic devices.

Enhancing Resource Sharing Access through System Integration
(Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Electronic Reserve, 2017-04-12)The application and IT ecosystem of academic libraries typically includes multiple systems, with crucial functions requiring using or sharing information between them. However, library systems are often not well integrated, ... -
Determining form and data assimilation algorithm for weakly damped and driven Korteweg-de Vries equation - Fourier modes case
(Nonlinear Analysis: Real World Applications, 2017-08)We show that the global attractor of a weakly damped and driven Korteweg–de Vries equation (KdV) is embedded in the long-time dynamics of an ordinary differential equation called a determining form. In particular, there ... -
