Interface Velocity Transients During Melting of a-Si/c-Si Thin Films
(Materials Research Society, 1988)The authors report transient conductance measurement of liquid/solid interface velocities during pulsed laser melting of amorphous Si (a-Si) films on crystalline Si (c-Si), and a more accurate, systematic procedure for ... -
Interfacial Forces are Modified by the Growth of Surface Nanostructures
(American Chemical Society, 2008)Nanostructures formed by chemical reaction can modify the interfacial forces present in aqueous solution near a surface. This study uses force-volume microscopy to explore this phenomenon for the growth of manganese oxide ... -
Interfacial materials with special wettability
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2013)Various life forms in nature display a high level of adaptability to their environments through the use of sophisticated material interfaces. This is exemplified by numerous natural examples, such as the self-cleaning of ... -
Interfacial Roughening During Solid Phase Epitaxy: Interaction of Dopant, Stress, and Anisotropy Effects
(American Institute of Physics, 2004)The effects of externally applied stress and rate-enhancing dopants on interfacial roughness during the solid phase epitaxial growth of ion-implantation-doped Si are investigated using cross-sectional transmission electron ... -
Interfacing Microbial Styrene Production with a Biocompatible Cyclopropanation Reaction
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015)Introducing new reactivity into living organisms is a major challenge in synthetic biology. Despite an increasing interest in both developing aqueous-compatible small molecule catalysts and engineering enzymes to perform ... -
Interference Analysis for on the Move Satellite Communication Systems
(IEEE, 2009)We consider on the move satellite systems with geostationary satellites. Using the antenna pointing distribution of Weerackody and Gonzalez, we derive tight upper and lower bounds on the interference to adjacent satellites ... -
Interference Aware-Coordinated Beamforming System in a Two-Cell Environment
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2009)In this paper, we propose jointly optimized transceiver algorithms called interference aware coordinated beamforming (IA-CBF) for a two-cell system where each base station is equipped with multiple transmit antennas. The ... -
Interference between independent fluctuating condensates
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2006)We consider a problem of interference between two independent condensates that lack true long-range order. We show that their interference pattern contains information about correlation functions within each condensate. ... -
Interference-mediated synaptonemal complex formation with embedded crossover designation
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014)Biological systems exhibit complex patterns, at length scales ranging from the molecular to the organismic. Along chromosomes, events often occur stochastically at different positions in different nuclei but nonetheless ... -
Interferometric Approach to Measuring Band Topology in 2D Optical Lattices
(American Physical Society (APS), 2013)Recently, optical lattices with nonzero Berry’s phases of Bloch bands have been realized. New approaches for measuring Berry’s phases and topological properties of bands with experimental tools appropriate for ultracold ... -
Interferometric Measurement of Acceleration at Relativistic Speeds
(American Astronomical Society, 2017)We show that an interferometer moving at a relativistic speed relative to a point source of light offers a sensitive probe of acceleration. Such an accelerometer contains no moving parts, and is thus more robust than ... -
Interferometric Measurements of Variable 340 GHz Linear Polarization in Sagittarius A*
(IOP Publishing, 2006)Using the Submillimeter Array, we have made the first high angular resolution measurements of the linear polarization of Sagittarius A* at submillimeter wavelengths, and the first detection of intra-day variability in its ... -
Interferometric Observation of the Highly Polarized SiO Maser Emission from the v = 1, J = 5-4 Transition Associated with VY Canis Majoris
(IOP Publishing, 2004)We used the Submillimeter Array to image the SiO maser emission in the v = 1, J = 5−4 transition associated with the peculiar red supergiant VY Canis Majoris. We identified seven maser components and measured their relative ... -
Interferometric probe of paired states
(American Physical Society (APS), 2008)We propose a method for detecting paired states in either bosonic or fermionic systems using interference experiments with independent or weakly coupled low-dimensional systems. We demonstrate that our method can be used ... -
Interferometric Probes of Many-Body Localization
(American Physical Society (APS), 2014)We propose a method for detecting many-body localization (MBL) in disordered spin systems. The method involves pulsed coherent spin manipulations that probe the dephasing of a given spin due to its entanglement with a set ... -
Intergalactic Magnetic Fields from Quasar Outflows
(American Astronomical Society, 2001)Outflows from quasars inevitably pollute the intergalactic medium (IGM) with magnetic fields. The short-lived activity of a quasar leaves behind an expanding magnetized bubble in the IGM. We model the expansion of the ... -
Intergenerational Risk Sharing in the Spirit of Arrow, Debreu, and Rawls, with Applications to Social Security Design
(University of Chicago Press, 2007)This paper examines the optimal allocation of risk in an overlapping‐generations economy. It compares the allocation of risk the economy reaches naturally to the allocation that would be reached if generations behind a ... -
Intergenerational Risksharing and Equilibrium Asset Prices
(Elsevier, 2007)In the presence of overlapping generations, markets are incomplete because it is impossible to engage in risksharing trades with the unborn. In such an environment the government can use a social security system, with ... -
Intergroup Contact Facilitates Physiological Recovery following Stressful Intergroup Interactions
(Elsevier, 2010)A growing body of research has demonstrated the importance of intergroup contact in reducing fear, threat and anxiety in intergroup domains. Here we focus on the regulatory benefits of intergroup contact. We hypothesized ...
