Post-Forming Extruded Profiles for Heat Transfer Applications Resulting in High Efficiency Cooling
Published Tuesday, April 14, 2009A majority of electronic devices are comprised of circuit boards with multiple heat generating chips of different height. Usually, machined high specification aluminum conduction plates or separate heat sinks are used for each chip. However, machined conduction plates are expensive and the use of separate heat sinks is complicated. Both have...

Positioning Quantum Dots in Devices by Electroosmotic Feedback Control
Published Wednesday, May 7, 2008Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are ideal candidates for storing and manipulating quantum information. To perform scalable quantum computation and long distance quantum networking requires the ability to deterministically position and fix many QDs into a single device, and ability that is currently not available. Such integration would enable one...

Frequency and Force Modulation Atomic Force Microscopy
Published Thursday, March 6, 2008Amplitude-modulation tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (AM-AFM) has developed into an important imaging tool for surface characterization. Despite its technical advances it succumbs to imaging bistability caused by the co-existence of attractive and repulsive imaging regimes, and potential sample damage in the repulsive regime....
