AB At small coverages of ceria on TiO2(110), the CeOx nanoparticles have an unusual coordination mode. Scanning tunneling microscopy and density-functional calculations point to the presence of Ce2O3 dimers, which form diagonal arrays that have specific orientations of 0, 24, and 42 degrees with respect to the [1 1 0] direction of the titania substrate. At high coverages of ceria on TiO2(1 10), the surface exhibits two types of terraces. In one type, the morphology is not very different from that observed at low ceria coverage. However, in the second type of terrace, there is a compact array of ceria particles with structures that do not match the structures of CeO2(111) or CeO2(110). The titania substrate imposes on the ceria nanoparticles nontypical coordination modes, enhancing their chemical reactivity. This phenomenon leads to a larger dispersion of supported metal nanoparticles (M = Au, Cu, Pt) and makes possible the direct participation of the oxide in catalytic reactions. The M/CeOx/TiO2(110) surfaces display an extremely high catalytic activity for the water-gas shift reaction that follows the sequence Au/CeOx/TiO2(110) < Cu/CeOx/TiO2(110) < Pt/CeOx/TiO2(110). For low coverages of Cu and CeOx, Cu/CeOx/TiO2(110) is 8-12 times more active than Cu(111) or Cu/ZnO industrial catalysts. In the M/CeOx/TiO2(110) systems, there is a strong coupling of the chemical properties of the admetal and the mixed-metal oxide: The adsorption and dissociation of water probably take place on the oxide, CO adsorbs on the admetal nanoparticles, and all subsequent reaction steps occur at the oxide-admetal interface. The high catalytic activity of the M/CeOx/TiO2(110) surfaces reflects the unique properties of the mixed-metal oxide at the nanometer level.

TI Role for DNA Methylation in the Regulation of miR-200c and miR-141
Expression in Normal and Cancer Cells

AB Background: The microRNA-200 family participates in the maintenance of an epithelial phenotype and loss of its expression can result in epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). Furthermore, the loss of expression of miR-200 family members is linked to an aggressive cancer phenotype. Regulation of the miR-200 family expression in normal and cancer cells is not fully understood.
Methodology/Principal Findings: Epigenetic mechanisms participate in the control of miR-200c and miR-141 expression in both normal and cancer cells. A CpG island near the predicted mir-200c/mir-141 transcription start site shows a striking correlation between miR-200c and miR-141 expression and DNA methylation in both normal and cancer cells, as determined by MassARRAY technology. The CpG island is unmethylated in human miR-200/miR-141 expressing epithelial cells and in miR-200c/miR-141 positive tumor cells. The CpG island is heavily methylated in human miR-200c/miR-141 negative fibroblasts and miR-200c/miR-141 negative tumor cells. Mouse cells show a similar inverse correlation between DNA methylation and miR-200c expression. Enrichment of permissive histone modifications, H3 acetylation and H3K4 trimethylation, is seen in normal miR-200c/miR-141-positive epithelial cells, as determined by chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to real-time PCR. In contrast, repressive H3K9 dimethylation marks are present in normal miR-200c/miR-141-negative fibroblasts and miR-200c/miR-141 negative cancer cells and the permissive histone modifications are absent. The epigenetic modifier drug, 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine, reactivates miR-200c/miR-141 expression showing that epigenetic mechanisms play a functional role in their transcriptional control.
Conclusions/Significance: We report that DNA methylation plays a role in the normal cell type-specific expression of miR-200c and miR-141 and this role appears evolutionarily conserved, since similar results were obtained in mouse. Aberrant DNA methylation of the miR-200c/141 CpG island is closely linked to their inappropriate silencing in cancer cells. Since the miR-200c cluster plays a significant role in EMT, our results suggest an important role for DNA methylation in the control of phenotypic conversions in normal cells.

AB The magnetic properties of alpha-Cu(dca)(2)(pyz) were examined by magnetic susceptibility, magnetization, inelastic neutron scattering (INS), muon-spin relaxation (mu SR) measurements and by first-principles density functional theoretical (DFT) calculations and quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations. The chi versus T Curve shows a broad maximum at 3.5 K, and the data between 2 and 300 K is well described by an S = 1/2 Heisenberg uniform chain model with g = 2.152(1) and J/k(B) = -5.4(l) K. mu SR measurements, conducted down to 0.02 K and as a function of longitudinal magnetic field, show no oscillations in the muon asymmetry function A(t). This evidence, together with the lack of spin wave formation as gleaned from INS data, suggests that no long-range magnetic order takes place in alpha-Cu(dca)(2)(pyz) down to the lowest measured temperatures. Electronic structure Calculations further show that the spin exchange is significant only along the Cu-pyz-Cu chains, such that alpha-Cu(dca)(2)(pyz) call be described by a Heisenberg anti-ferromagnetic chain model. Further Support for this comes from the M versus B curve, which is strongly concave owing to the reduced spin dimensionality. alpha-Cu(dca)(2)(pyz) is a molecular analogue of KCuF3 owing to d(x2-y2) orbital ordering where nearest-neighbor magnetic orbital planes of the Cu2+ sites are orthogonal in the planes perpendicular to the Cu-pyz-Cu chains.

AB The detailed science and technology of crystalline oxide film growth using vacuum methods is reviewed and discussed with an eye toward gaining fundamental insights into the relationships between growth process and parameters, film and interface structure and composition, and electronic, magnetic and photochemical properties. The topic is approached first from a comparative point of view based on the most widely used growth methods, I and then on the basis of specific material systems that have generated very high levels of interest. Emphasis is placed on the wide diversity of structural, electronic, optical and magnetic properties exhibited by oxides, and the fascinating results that this diversity of properties can produce when combined with the degrees of freedom afforded by heteroepitaxy.

AB Conventional synthesis of inorganic materials relies heavily on water and organic solvents. Alternatively, the synthesis of inorganic materials using, or in the presence of, ionic liquids represents a burgeoning direction in materials chemistry. Use of ionic liquids in solvent extraction and organic catalysis has been extensively studied, but their use in inorganic synthesis has just begun. Ionic liquids are a family of non-conventional molten salts that can act as templates and precursors to inorganic materials, as well as solvents. They offer many advantages, such as negligible vapor pressures, wide liquidus ranges, good thermal stability, tunable solubility for both organic and inorganic molecules, and much synthetic flexibility. In this Review, the use of ionic liquids in the preparation of several categories of inorganic and hybrid materials (i.e., metal structures, non-metal elements, silicas, organosilicas, metal oxides, metal chalcogenides, metal salts, open-framework structures, ionic liquid-functionalized materials, and supported ionic liquids) is summarized. The status quo of the research field is assessed, and some future perspectives are furnished.

AB Despite recent progress on environmental catalysis, there exist several critical challenges in simple and readily controllable nanocatalyst synthesis including the unpredictable particle growth, deactivation of catalytic activity, cumbersome catalyst recovery and lack of in situ reaction monitoring. We demonstrate viral template-based bottom-up assembly approach for nanostructured palladium (Pd) catalyst synthesis for dichromate reduction. Specifically, genetically displayed cysteine residues on each coat protein of Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) templates provide precisely spaced thiol functionalities for readily controllable surface assembly and catalytically active Pd nanoparticle formation. Reaction kinetics studies via in situ monitoring by UV-vis spectroscopy revealed catalytic activity, stability and first-order batch reaction kinetics, and allowed rapid examination of reaction parameters (pH, reducer and temperature). Further, in-depth characterization via AFM, GISAXS and XPS show preferential Pd nanoparticle formation on TMV templates, particle size and stability that correlate well with the reaction kinetics results. We envision that our approach for simple high density surface assembly of catalytically active Pd nanoparticles under mild aqueous conditions would provide a facile route to catalyst synthesis in a wide range of applications.

AB ZnO nanowires, one of the most investigated nanostructures that promise numerous applications in nanophotonics, opto-electronics, and energy, are generally thought to be highly stable under ambient conditions because of their oxide nature. Here, we report that ZnO nanowires are actually extremely unstable even in normal ambient environment (70% RH, and similar to 350 ppm CO2) because of atmospheric corrosion. When placed on an oxide substrate (e.g., glass slide) and exposed in air, ZnO nanowires tend to react with airborne moisture and CO2 to form amorphous ZnCO3 thin films and nanowires. The factors that specially affect the corrosion of ZnO nanowires in a laboratory environment include CO2, humidity, and substrates. Our results suggest that a CO2- and/or moisture-free environment are required in order for optimal applications of ZnO nanowires.

AB We report on a joint theoretical and experimental investigation of the electronic structure of a series of bis(diphenylphosphine oxide) derivatives containing a central aromatic core with high triplet energy. Such molecules can serve as host material in the emissive layer of blue electro-phosphorescent organic devices. The aromatic cores considered in the theoretical study consist of biphenyl, fluorene, dibenzofuran, dibenzothiophene, dibenzothiophenesulfone, or carbazole, linked to the two phosphoryl groups in either para or meta positions. With respect to the isolated core molecules, it is found that addition of the diphenylphosphine oxide moieties has hardly any impact on the core geometry and only slightly reduces the energy of the lowest triplet state (by, at most, similar to 0.2 eV). However, the diphenylphosphine oxide functionalities significantly impact the ionization potential and electron affinity values, in it way that is different for para and meta Substitutions. Excellent comparison is obtained between the experimental UPS and IPES spectra of the para biphenyl and meta dibenzothiophene and dibenzothiophenesulfone compounds and the simulated spectra. In general, the phosphine oxide derivatives present triplet energies that are calculated to be at least 0.2 eV higher than those of currently widely used blue phosphorescent emitters.

AB This report shows that the size, shape, and composition of presynthesized copper nanoparticles can be nanoengineered through exploiting concurrent interparticle aggregative growth and interfacial carbon-sulfur cleavage in it thermally activated evolution route. This is demonstrated by thermally activated processing of ultrafine copper nanoclusters encapsulated with thiolate monolayer (Cu-n(SR)(m)) toward semiconducting Copper sulfide (Cu2S) nanodiscs with controllable sizes and shapes. Under controlled temperatures (120-150 degrees C), the ultrafine Cu-n(SR)(m) nanoclusters, with a size of similar to 0.5 nm evidenced by TEM, SAXS-WAXS, DCP-AES, and MALDI-TOF measurements, were shown to evolve into thiolate-capped Cu2S nanodiscs via thermally activated coalescence and copper-catalyzed interfacial C-S cleavage reactivities. The Cu2S nanodiscs, as confirmed by XPS and HRTEM analyses, exhibited controllable and monodispersed sizes depending on the thermal processing parameters, ranging from 5 to 35 nm in the disk dimension and 3-6 rim in the thickness dimension. These nanodiscs are stable and display remarkable 1D/2D ordering upon self-assembly. This process is not it simple digestive ripening of smaller particles because it involves an aggregative nucleation and growth process distinctively different from traditional ripening and a reactive carbon-sulfur bond cleavage controlled by the catalytic effect of copper under the specified temperatures. The coupling of the thermally activated coalescence and C-S bond cleavage to convert the ultrafine Cu nanoclusters toward the formation Of Cu2S nanodiscs is highly effective for tuning nanoscale size, shape, and composition, and could Find applications in nanoengineering it variety of semiconducting nanocrystals for applications in nanostructured electronic, sensing, and photochemical devices.

Pressing isotropic samples obtained by casting results in lamellae aligned ill the plane of the film, Application of electric fields and now fields oil the isotropic samples results in lamellae aligned perpendicular to the plane of the film. The alignment of lamellae, quantified by a combination of two dimensional small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), birefringence, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), was much better in the pressed samples than in the field-aligned samples. Conductivity was Measured in the plane of the film (sigma(parallel to)) and normal to the plane of the film (sigma(perpendicular to)). Only the pressed sample showed highly anisotropic proton conduction With sigma(parallel to)/sigma(perpendicular to) = 75. In this case, the value of sigma(parallel to) increased by 30% after alignment, relative to that obtained from the as-cast samples. The values of sigma(parallel to)/sigma(perpendicular to) obtained after electric Field and shear field alignment were 1.2 and 1.4, respectively, in spite of partial alignment of the domains. and the increase in sigma(perpendicular to) after alignment was less than 20%.

The average width of the copolymer interface is (4.9 +/- 0.1) nm. Comparison with mean-field theoretic predictions for the Structure of block copolymer interfaces Suggests a low-frequency variance in the copolymer interface position of 1.2 nm(2), or a low-frequency line-edge roughness of approximately 3 nm.

AB The intercalation capability of poly(styrene-b-ethylene butylene-b-styrene) (SEBS) in nanocomposites of isotactic polypropylene (PP) with 5 wt % of organically modified montmorillonite (C20A), prepared by melt blending, has been investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) Studies have shown the presence of intercalated structures in the nanocomposite. In a previous research, we studied the intercalation capability of a commercial compatibilizer.(1) Those results, with the study we present in this work, allow us a better understanding of the mechanism of compatibilization and it deeper characterization of the Structure and morphology of the nanocomposite. scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM) has been used. Because of the excellent chemical sensitivity and the high spatial resolution (similar to 40 nm) of this technique, we have proved that C20A is not in direct contact with the PP phase because the clay is always located inside the elastomer domains. The elastomer is surrounding the nanoclay, hindering the clay exfoliation and preventing its dispersion in the PP matrix. Oil the other hand, we have observed that the presence of the clay caused the SEBS particles to become elongated in shape and retarded the coalescence of the elastomer particles.

AB The mechanism of substrate translocation through the ribosome is central to the rapid and faithful translation of mRNA into proteins. The rate-limiting step in translocation is an unlocking process that includes the formation of an "unlocked" intermediate state, which requires the convergence of large-scale conformational events within the ribosome including tRNA hybrid states formation, closure of the ribosomal L1 stalk domain, and subunit ratcheting. Here, by imaging of the pretranslocation ribosome complex from multiple structural perspectives using two- and three-color single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer, we observe that tRNA hybrid states formation and L1 stalk closure, events central to the unlocking mechanism, are not tightly coupled. These findings reveal that the unlocked state is achieved through a stochastic-multistep process, where the extent of conformational coupling depends on the nature of tRNA substrates. These data suggest that cellular mechanisms affecting the coupling of conformational processes on the ribosome may regulate the process of translation elongation.

AB A method is proposed and tested which allows for the accurate determination of the carrier collection efficiency and minority carrier diffusion length in Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 solar cells using energy dependent electron beam induced current. Gallium composition gradients across the film thickness introduce quasielectric fields that are found to improve collection efficiency when they are located toward the rear of the sample. The quasielectric fields are also shown to reduce the influence of back surface recombination. The strengths and limitations of this technique are discussed and compared with external quantum efficiency measurements.

AB Cu2ZnSnS4 is one of the most promising quaternary absorber materials for thin-film solar cells. Examination of the thermodynamic stability of this quaternary compound reveals that the stable chemical potential region for the formation of stoichiometric compound is small. Under these conditions, the dominant defect will be p-type Cu-Zn antisite, which has an acceptor level deeper than the Cu vacancy. The dominant self-compensated defect pair in this quaternary compound is [Cu-Zn(-)+Zn-Cu(+)](0), which leads to the formation of various polytype structures of Cu2ZnSnS4. We propose that to maximize the solar cell performance, growth of Cu2ZnSnS4 under Cu-poor/Zn-rich conditions will be optimal, if the precipitation of ZnS can be avoided by kinetic barriers.

ID PHOTONIC CRYSTAL FIBER; GENERATION
AB In this letter we demonstrate the possibility to determine the temporal and spectral structure (spectrogram) of a complex light pulse exploiting the ultrafast switching character of a nonthermal photoinduced phase transition. As a proof, we use a VO2 multifilm, undergoing an ultrafast insulator-to-metal phase transition when excited by femtosecond near-infrared laser pulses. The abrupt variation in the multifilm optical properties, over a broad infrared/visible frequency range, is exploited to determine, in situ and in a simple way, the spectrogram of a supercontinuum pulse produced by a photonic crystal fiber. The determination of the structure of the pulse is mandatory to develop pump-probe experiments with frequency resolution over a broad spectral range (700-1100 nm).

AB Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy is used to probe the electromagnetic properties of metamaterials, which are dynamically photoexcited, using synchronized femtosecond near-infrared laser pulses. Blueshift tunability of the electric dipole metamaterial's resonance, as well as a broadband phase tunability reaching similar to pi/4, are demonstrated. Numerical simulations show the observations are due to changes in the complex index of the photoexcited semiconductor substrate.

AB Spin-pumping generates pure spin currents in normal metals at the ferromagnet (F)/normal metal (N) interface. The efficiency of spin-pumping is given by the spin mixing conductance, which depends on N and the F/N interface. We directly study the spin-pumping through an MgO tunnel-barrier using the inverse spin Hall effect, which couples spin and charge currents and provides a direct electrical detection of spin currents in the normal metal. We find that spin-pumping is suppressed by the tunnel-barrier, which is contrary to recent studies that suggest that the spin mixing conductance can be enhanced by a tunnel-barrier inserted at the interface.

AB We report on the memory effect of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) placed on a nitride-oxide layer structure designed as a charge storage medium. The conductance of the SWNT was modulated by the injected charge in the nitride-oxide interface and the polarities of injected charges were then detected. A large on/off-state current ratio (>10(4)) was obtained at a small program/erase voltage range (< 3 V). We also studied the effect of a half-selected cell on the conductance of the SWNTs to identify the issues with cross-point memory architecture.

AB Molecular dynamics simulations are performed for CuZr metallic alloys to study the structural and dynamical features for glass forming ability (GFA). Our analysis shows that in CuZr metallic system, although << 0,0,12,0 >> icosahedral clusters are important, some Zr-centered clusters such as << 0,1,10,4 >> and << 0,1,10,5 >> play a key role in slowing down the dynamics. It is found that these Zr-centered clusters are intrinsically slow and fundamentally determine the stability and slow dynamics. Due to the strong spatial correlation between << 0,0,12,0 >> and Zr-centered clusters, their relative population influences the dense packing and dynamics in metallic glasses, and further the GFA.

AB We observe that the high-temperature delta-phase of Bi2O3 is stabilized to room temperature by the epitaxial growth of nanostructures onto either (001)-oriented SrTiO3 or (001)(p)-oriented DyScO3 single crystal substrates. In addition, the morphology can be controlled by the miscut of the substrate. Synchrotron x-ray scattering observations at controlled temperatures and oxygen partial pressures reveal that the delta-Bi2O3 nanostructures are coherently strained to the substrates at room temperature. Annealing the nanostructures at 600 degrees C causes gradual conversion of the (001)-oriented delta-phase to an unidentified strain-relaxed phase.

AB Achieving stable single-digit nanometer inverted domains in ferroelectric thin films is a fundamental issue that has remained a bottleneck for the development of ultrahigh density (>1 Tbit/in.(2)) probe-based memory devices using ferroelectric media. Here, we demonstrate that such domains remain stable only if they are fully inverted through the entire ferroelectric film thickness, which is dependent on a critical ratio of electrode size to the film thickness. This understanding enables the formation of stable domains as small as 4 nm in diameter, corresponding to 10 unit cells in size. Such domain size corresponds to 40 Tbit/in.(2) data storage densities.

AB We present the largest, most homogeneous catalogue of merging galaxies in the nearby Universe obtained through the Galaxy Zoo project - an interface on the World Wide Web enabling large-scale morphological classification of galaxies through visual inspection of images from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The method converts a set of visually inspected classifications for each galaxy into a single parameter (the 'weighted-merger-vote fraction,' f(m)) which describes our confidence that the system is part of an ongoing merger. We describe how f(m) is used to create a catalogue of 3003 visually selected pairs of merging galaxies from the SDSS in the redshift range 0.005 < z < 0.1. We use our merger sample and values of f(m) applied to the SDSS Main Galaxy Spectral sample to estimate that the fraction of volume-limited (M(r) < -20.55) major mergers (1/3 < M*(1)/M*(2) < 3) in the nearby Universe is 1-3 x C per cent, where C similar to 1.5 is a correction factor for spectroscopic incompleteness. Having visually classified the morphologies of the constituent galaxies in our mergers, we find that the spiral-to-elliptical ratio of galaxies in mergers is higher by a factor of similar to 2 relative to the global population. In a companion paper, we examine the internal properties of these merging galaxies and conclude that this high spiral-to-elliptical ratio in mergers is due to a longer time-scale over which mergers with spirals are detectable compared to mergers with ellipticals.

AB LHCf is a high-energy physics experiment designed to study the forward production of neutral particles in proton-proton collisions at the LHC. The set-up consists of two small calorimetric systems symmetrically placed 140 m away on both the sides of the ATLAS interaction point. Results from the experiment will provide valuable information to the calibration of the nuclear interaction models used in the Monte Carlo codes for air-shower simulations, which are of great importance for present and future ground-based cosmic-ray experiments. In particular, since LHCf will start taking data in the first phase of operation of the LHC (during the beam commissioning phase at 5 + 5 TeV energy) and will complete its data taking at the beginning of the 7 + 7 TeV runs (laboratory equivalent collision energy 10(17) eV), it will span an energy range up to the region between the "knee" and the GZK cut-off of the cosmic-ray spectrum.

AB A heavily irradiated (3 x 10(15) 1 MeV n(eq)/cm(2)) Current Injected Detector (CID) was tested with 225 GeV muon beam at CERN H2 beam line. In the CID concept the current is limited by the space charge. The injected carriers will be trapped by the deep levels and this induces a stable electric field through the entire bulk regardless of the irradiation fluence the detector has been exposed to. The steady-state density of the trapped charge is defined by the balance between the trapping and the emission rates of charge carriers (detrapping). Thus, the amount of charge injection needed for the electric field stabilization depends on the temperature. AC-coupled 16 cm(2) detector was processed on high resistivity n-type magnetic Czochralski silicon, and it had 768 strips, 50 mu m pitch, 10 mu m strip width and 3.9 cm strip length. The beam test was carried out using a silicon beam telescope that is based on the CMS detector readout prototype components, APV25 readout chips, and eight strip sensors made by Hamamatsu having 60 mu m pitch and intermediate strips. The tested CID detector was bonded to the APV25 readout, and it was operated at temperatures ranging from -40 to -53 degrees C. The CID detector irradiated at 3 x 10(15) 1 MeV n(eq)/cm(2) fluence shows about 40% relative Charge Collection Efficiency with respect to the non-irradiated reference plane sensors.

AB Strip detectors with an area of 16 cm(2) were processed on high resistivity n-type magnetic Czochralski silicon. In addition, detectors were processed on high resistivity Float Zone wafers with the same mask set for comparison. The detectors were irradiated to several different fluences up to the fluence of 3 x 10(15) 1 MeV n(eq)/cm(2) with protons or with mixed protons and neutrons. The detectors were fully characterized with CV- and IV-measurements prior to and after the irradiation. The beam test was carried out at the CERN H2 beam line using a silicon beam telescope that determines the tracks of the incoming particles and hence provides a reference measurement for the detector characterization. The n-type MCz-Si strip detectors have an acceptable SIN at least up to the fluence of 1 x 10(15) n(eq)/cm(2) and thus, they are a feasible option for the strip detector layers in the SLHC tracking systems.

AB We undertook, at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), full 3D simulations of one-sided dual-type column 3D Si detectors (p-type substrate) after irradiation levels up to 1 x 10(16) n(eq)/cm(2). Etching does not extend all the way through the substrate, so that all electrodes arc on the front side: the backside was neither supported nor processed, covered only with a layer of silicon dioxide. Hence, BNL's one-sided dual-type column 3D detectors are true one-sided detectors. Our simulations of the electric fields at various fluences will add to our knowledge about the practicable applicability of these detectors in the high-radiation environment of future colliders.
Simulations show that the full depletion voltage, V(fd), for a dual-column 3D detector is about 1.4 times higher than that of a 2D (planar) pad detector with a thickness d, the same as the column spacing, LP, in the 3D detector. Moreover, the highest E-field is near the n(+) column, while the high E-field mainly is distributed between the n(+) and p(+) columns. The low E-field is between the two p(+) columns, with its lowest point in the center of the unit cell with two p(+) columns and two n(+) columns.
To fully deplete a dual-column 3D detector at 1 x 10(16) n(eq)/cm(2) with a reasonable bias (<= 200 V) necessitates reducing the column spacing, L(p), to 30 mu m. The volume under the columns (10% of the total volume) can be depleted with a modest bias (<= 200V); this underlying volume is not a dead volume. In addition, this depletion volume can support detection sensitivity directly under the columns, thereby lowering the effective dead volume in a 3D Si detector. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB We undertook systematic transient current technique (TCT) studies, measuring the shapes of electron- and hole-transient currents in three sets of samples irradiated by 24 GeV/c protons at fluences 1.6 x 10(14)-2.4 x 10(15) p/cm(2). We carried out these measurements after leaving the samples to anneal for 22-23 days at room temperature. The three sets comprised (1) magnetic Czochralski (MCZ) n-type Si detectors; (2) MCZ p-type Si detectors; and (3) float-zone (FZ) n-type Si detectors (control set) The. control set showed no surprises. The space charge sign inversion (SCSI) had already occurred at the lowest fluence (1.6 x 10(14) p/cm(2)), and the double junction/double peak effect was readily apparent, with the first junction, the minor one, near the p(+) contact, which changes very little with bias voltages. It is superseded by the second junction near the n(+) contact (negative space charge) at biases higher than the full-depletion voltage. For both MCZ n-type and p-type detectors, the double junction/double peak effect also was initiated at the lowest fluence, but the standard SCSI evident in FZ n-type detectors (wherein the negative space charge dominates the entire detector) was not seen in that fluence range. However, in these two groups, the double junction/peak effect persisted into subsequent higher fluences with almost equal junctions near the p(+) and n(+) contacts, regardless of bias voltages, which may be much larger than the full-depletion voltages. This new effect, termed the equal-double-junction effect, is unique for the 24 GeV/c proton-irradiated MCZ (n and p) Si detectors. It is evident by the almost identical shapes in TCT currents, before trapping corrections, for both electrons (red laser on the p(+) contact)and holes (on the n(+) contact), with the first peak always dominating a small second peak at any bias voltages. After trapping corrections, the heights of the two peaks arc about the same, suggesting the existence of nearly equal-double junctions in the detector. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The reaction of H2Re2(CO)(8) (1) with Cp*Rh(CO)(2) (2) in refluxing hexane affords tile rnixed-metal clusters H(2)RhRc(2)Cp*(CO)(9) (4, major product), HRh2ReCp*(2)(CO)(6) (5), and HRhRe3CP*(CO)(14) (6). 4 and 5 are electron-precise 48e clusters and display triangular metallic cores, while 6 contains 64 valence electronsand exhibits it spiked-triangular core having it pendant Re(CO)(5) moiety. Heating 1 with CP*Rh-2(2)(CO)(2) (3) gives 4 and 5 its the principal products, in addition to H2Rh2Re2CP*(2)(CO)(8) (7) in low yield. Cluster 7 possesses 60e and contains a tetrametallic core with two face-capping CO and hydride groups. Heating 4 Under CO leads to Cluster fragmentation and formation of Re-2(CO)(10) and 2 in essentially quantitative yield, its assessed by IR spectroscopy. The kinetics for the fragmentation of 4 in toluene under CO have been investigated over the temperature range 325-349 K. by UV- vis spectroscopy. On the basis of the first-order rate constants and tile Eyring activation parameters (Delta H-double dagger = 25.0(8) kcal/rnol; Delta(double dagger S) = -2.6(3) eu), it rate-limiting step involving a polyhedral opening of 4 is supported. 4 is thermally and photochernically sensitive, and reactions conducted in the presence of chlorinated solvents furnish the face-shared bioctahedral compound Cp*Rh(mu-Cl)(3)Re(CO)(3) (8). Heating 4 and H2S in benzene at ca. 60 degrees C furnishes the 48c triangular cluster S,Rh3CP*(CO)(4) (9), which contains two Rh(CO)(2) moieties and two face-capping sulfide groups. The reaction of 4 with p-methylbcnzenetliiol gives the sulfido-bridged dimer Cp*Rh(mu-SC6H4Me-P)(3) Re(CO)(3) (11). The dinuclear compounds Cp*Rh(mu-Cl)(mu-SC6H4Me-p))(2)Re(CO)(3) (10)and 11 are formed when 8 is allowed to react with p-methylbenzenethiol. Treatment of 8 and 10 with excess p-methylbenzenethiol yields 11 at elevated temperature in toluene. Compounds 4-11 have been isolated and fully characterized by I R and NM R spectroscopy and by X-ray crystallography. The reactivity displayed by 4 is contrasted with that of tile known indenyl-substituted cluster H2Re2Ir(eta(5)-ind)(CO)(9) prepared earlier by Shapley and co-workers.

AB The platinum ethylene complexes (PyPyr)Pt(C(2)H(4))Cl (1) and (PyPyr)Pt(C(2)H(4))OTf (4) (PyPyr = 3,5-diphenyl-2-(2-pyidyl)pyrrolide) were treated with 1 equiv of LiN(SiMe(3))(2), LiN(i)Pr(2), and LiNH-(o-xylyl) to produce the platinum complexes (PyPyr)PtH[eta(2)-CH(2)=CHN(SiMe(3))(2)] (5), (PyPyr)Pt[k(2) C,N-(CH(2)CH(2)N(i)Pr(2))] (6), and (PyPyr)Pt{k(2)C,N-[CH(2)CH(2)NH(o-xylyl)]} (7), respectively. X-ray crystallography reveals that 7 adopts a square-planar geometry at the platinum center and the azaplatinacyclobutane ring displays I puckering of the beta-carbon out of planarity by 0.270 angstrom. Thermolysis of 5 and 7 at 60 degrees C for 16 h releases the vinylamines (CH(2)=CH)N(SiMe(3))(2) and (CH(2)=CH)NH(o-xylyl), respectively. Heating 5 and 7 under 1 atm of H(2) at 60 degrees C releases the ethylamines EtN(SiMe(3))(2) and EtNH(o-xyly]), respectively. Addition Of PiPr(3) to 7 produces (PyPyr)Pt(P(i)Pr(3))[CH(2)CH(2)NH(o-xylyl)] (8) in 95% yield, while additions of I equiv of a Lewis base (L) to I result in displacement of ethylene to give (PyPyr)Pt(L)Cl (L = NEt(3) (9), NH(2)Ph (10), P(i)Pr(3) (11)). The amido complex (PyPyr)Pt(P(i)Pr(3))[NH(o-xylyl)] (12) results from treatment of 11 with LiNH(o-xylyl), and 12 does not undergo ethylene insertion into the Pt-N bond Linder I atm of C(2)H(4) at 120 degrees C over 3 days. Addition of 1 equiv of LiNH(o-xylyl) to (PyPyr)Pt(SMe(2))Cl (2) produces the mu-amido-bridged dimer [(PyPyr)Pt(mu-NH(o-xylxyl))](2) (13), and treatment of 13 with 2 equiv Of (i)Pr(3)P produces 12. These reactivity Studies are consistent with a mechanism for the formation of 5-7 involving nucleophilic attack of ail amide onto coordinated olefin.

AB Excited states in Xe-124 have been studied via the C-12(Xe-124, Xe-124*) Coulomb excitation reaction. Their population cross-sections relative to the 2(1)(+) state have been determined from the gamma-ray yields observed with Gammasphere. More than twenty absolute E2 strengths for seven off-yrast, low-spin states of Xe-124 have been deduced for the first time. The absolute B(E2) values indicate pronounced O(5) symmetry, even for the off-yrast states with high O(5) quantum number tau, while the O(6) symmetry is substantially broken. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB We report the discovery of seven new fossil systems in the 400d cluster survey. Our search targets nearby, z <= 0.2, and X-ray bright, L(X) >= 10(43) erg s(-1), clusters of galaxies. Where available, we measure the optical luminosities from Sloan Digital Sky Survey images, thereby obtaining uniform sets of both X-ray and optical data. Our selection criteria identify 12 fossil systems, out of which five are known from previous studies. While in general agreement with earlier results, our larger sample size allows us to put tighter constraints on the number density of fossil clusters. It has been previously reported that fossil groups are more X-ray bright than other X-ray groups of galaxies for the same optical luminosity. We find, however, that the X-ray brightness of massive fossil systems is consistent with that of the general population of galaxy clusters and follows the same L(X)-L(opt) scaling relation.

AB We study rapidly accreting, gravitationally unstable disks with a series of idealized global, numerical experiments using the code ORION. Our numerical parameter study focuses on protostellar disks, showing that one can predict disk behavior and the multiplicity of the accreting star system as a function of two dimensionless parameters which compare the infall rate to the disk sound speed and orbital period. Although gravitational instabilities become strong, we find that fragmentation into binary or multiple systems occurs only when material falls in several times more rapidly than the canonical isothermal limit. The disk-to-star accretion rate is proportional to the infall rate and governed by gravitational torques generated by low-m spiral modes. We also confirm the existence of a maximum stable disk mass: disks that exceed similar to 50% of the total system mass are subject to fragmentation and the subsequent formation of binary companions.

AB We report the first detection of very high energy(83) (VHE) gamma-ray emission above 140 GeV from PKS 1424+240, a BL Lac object with an unknown redshift. The photon spectrum above 140 GeV measured by VERITAS is well described by a power law with a photon index of 3.8 +/- 0.5(stat) +/- 0.3(syst) and a flux normalization at 200 GeV of (5.1 +/- 0.9(stat) +/- 0.5(syst)) x 10(-11) TeV-1 cm(-2) s(-1), where stat and syst denote the statistical and systematical uncertainties, respectively. The VHE flux is steady over the observation period between MJD 54881 and 55003 (from 2009 February 19 to June 21). Flux variability is also not observed in contemporaneous high-energy observations with the Fermi Large Area Telescope. Contemporaneous X-ray and optical data were also obtained from the Swift XRT and MDM observatory, respectively. The broadband spectral energy distribution is well described by a one-zone synchrotron self-Compton model favoring a redshift of less than 0.1. Using the photon index measured with Fermi in combination with recent extragalactic background light absorption models it can be concluded from the VERITAS data that the redshift of PKS 1424+240 is less than 0.66.

The enhancement in flux is between 2 and 3 times greater than adjacent regions of the sky. Yet the spectral index of ENAs appears to be the same both inside and outside the ribbon. While the ribbon itself was not predicted by any models of the heliospheric interface, its geometry appears to be related to the predicted interstellar magnetic field (ISMF) outside the heliopause (HP). In this Letter, we examine a process of ENA emission from the outer heliosheath, based on a source population of non-isotropic pick-up ions that themselves originate as ENAs from inside the HP. We find that our simplistic approach yields a ribbon of enhanced ENA fluxes as viewed from the inner heliosphere with a spatial location and ENA flux similar to the IBEX measurements, with the provision that the ions retain a partial shell distribution long enough for the ions to be neutralized. As a corollary, our idealized simulation of this mechanism suggests that ISMF is likely oriented close to the center of the observed ribbon.

AB Rat astrocyte function is changed by diabetes mellitus relative to the nondiabetic state and we believe that altered function contributes to the central nervous system symptoms manifested by individuals with diabetes. We report here a comparison of astrocyte glutamate uptake and GFAP expression in streptozotocin-induced type 1 diabetic rats and insulin-treated diabetic rats at 4 and 8 weeks following diabetes onset. In glial plasmalemmal vesicle (GPV) preparations from treated rats, insulin prevented the increase observed in untreated, diabetic rats of both sodium-dependent and sodium-independent glutamate uptake. We deter-mined by immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry that insulin treatment prevented the decrease of GFAP expression detected in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum of untreated, diabetic rats. These observations indicate that insulin effects on astrocyte function are significant in managing diabetes-induced central nervous system pathology. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The generation of all-hexahedral finite element meshes has been an area of ongoing research for the past two decades and remains an open problem. Unconstrained plastering is a new method for generating all-hexahedral finite element meshes on arbitrary volumetric geometries. Starting from an unmeshed volume boundary, unconstrained plastering generates the interior mesh topology without the constraints of a pre-defined boundary mesh. Using advancing fronts, unconstrained plastering forms partially defined hexahedral dual sheets by decomposing the geometry into simple shapes, each of which can be meshed with simple meshing primitives. By breaking from the tradition of previous advancing-front algorithms, which start from pre-meshed boundary Surfaces, unconstrained plastering demonstrates that For the tested geometries, high quality, boundary aligned. orientation insensitive, all-hexahedral meshes can be generated automatically without pre-meshing the boundary. Examples are given for meshes from both solid mechanics and geotechnical applications. Copyright (C) 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

TI Ku and DNA-dependent Protein Kinase Dynamic Conformations and Assembly
Regulate DNA Binding and the Initial Non-homologous End Joining Complex

STRUCTURE; PHOSPHORYLATION SITES; IN-VIVO; AUTOPHOSPHORYLATION; PKCS;
DOMAIN; HETERODIMER
AB DNA double strand break (DSB) repair by non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) is initiated by DSB detection by Ku70/80 (Ku) and DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) recruitment, which promotes pathway progression through poorly defined mechanisms. Here, Ku and DNA-PKcs solution structures alone and in complex with DNA, defined by x-ray scattering, reveal major structural reorganizations that choreograph NHEJ initiation. The Ku80 C-terminal region forms a flexible arm that extends from the DNA-binding core to recruit and retain DNA-PKcs at DSBs. Furthermore, Ku- and DNA-promoted assembly of a DNA-PKcs dimer facilitates transautophosphorylation at the DSB. The resulting site-specific autophosphorylation induces a large conformational change that opens DNA-PKcs and promotes its release from DNA ends. These results show how protein and DNA interactions initiate large Ku and DNA-PKcs rearrangements to control DNA-PK biological functions as a macromolecular machine orchestrating assembly and disassembly of the initial NHEJ complex on DNA.

ID SHEET; MAGNETOTAIL; BOUNDARY
AB Studies of entropy provide physical insight into space plasma transport, intermittency, turbulence, and information flow in the heliosphere and magnetosphere. Nonconservation of entropy in space plasmas can result from magnetic reconfiguration as well as nonadiabatic processes such as turbulent transport, thermal energy transport due to nonadiabatic particle drifts, energizations, mixing of two or more plasma populations, etc. Examination of entropy properties may provide insight into processes leading to plasma entry across the magnetopause on the dayside and nightside and processes leading to the tail "pressure balance inconsistency'' and may provide constraints on which processes are most important in the dynamical transition related to substorms. Moreover, entropy-based information theory can be used to characterize the dynamics of the magnetosphere. This paper summarizes the special section that highlights state-of-the-art theoretical and observational studies of entropy, the pressure balance inconsistency, and other entropy-related issues such as those mentioned above.

AB We consider the propagation of extremely short pulses through a dielectric thin film containing resonant atoms (two-level atoms) with permanent dipole. Assuming that the film width is less than the field wavelength, we can solve the wave equation and reduce the problem to a system of generalized Bloch equations describing the resonant atoms. We compute the stationary solutions for a constant irradiation of the film. Superimposing a small amplitude linear wave we calculate the reflection and transmission coefficients. From these, one can then deduce the different parameters of the model. We believe that this technique could be used in experiments to obtain the medium atomic and relaxation parameters.

AB We study the dynamics of a linearly distributed line charge such as single stranded DNA (ssDNA) in a nanoscale, linear 2D Paul trap in vacuum. Using molecular dynamics simulations we show that a line charge can be trapped effectively in the trap for a well defined range of stability parameters. We investigated (i) a flexible bonded string of charged beads and (ii) a ssDNA polymer of variable length, for various trap parameters. A line charge undergoes oscillations or rotations as it moves, depending on its initial angle, the position of the center of mass and the velocity. The stability region for a strongly bonded line of charged beads is similar to that of a single ion with the same charge to mass ratio. Single stranded DNA as long as 40 nm does not fold or curl in the Paul trap, but could undergo rotations about the center of mass. However, we show that a stretching field in the axial direction can effectively prevent the rotations and increase the confinement stability.

AB We present the results of a search for supersymmetry with gauge-mediated breaking and (chi) over tilde (1)(0) -> gamma(G) over tilde in the gamma gamma + missing transverse energy final state. In 2.6 +/- 0.2 fb(-1) of p (p) over bar collisions at root s 1.96 TeV recorded by the CDF II detector we observe no candidate events, consistent with a standard model background expectation of 1.4 +/- 0.4 events. We set limits on the cross section at the 95% C.L. and place the world's best limit of 149 GeV/c(2) on the (chi) over tilde (1)(0) mass at tau((chi) over tilde 01) << 1 ns. We also exclude regions in the (chi) over tilde (1)(0) mass-lifetime plane for tau((chi) over tilde 01) less than or similar to 2 ns.

TI Strange Quark Contributions to Parity-Violating Asymmetries in the
Backward Angle G0 Electron Scattering Experiment
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID NEUTRAL-CURRENT; FORM-FACTORS; NUCLEON; PROTON
AB We have measured parity-violating asymmetries in elastic electron-proton and quasielastic electron-deuteron scattering at Q(2) = 0.22 and 0.63 GeV(2). They are sensitive to strange quark contributions to currents in the nucleon and the nucleon axial-vector current. The results indicate strange quark contributions of less than or similar to 10% of the charge and magnetic nucleon form factors at these four-momentum transfers. We also present the first measurement of anapole moment effects in the axial-vector cur-rent at these four-momentum transfers.

AB We present a measurement of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element vertical bar V-cb vertical bar and the form-factor slope rho(2) in (B) over bar -> Dl(-) (nu) over bar (l) decays based on 460 X 10(6) B (B) over bar events recorded at the Gamma(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector. (B) over bar -> Dl(-) (nu) over bar (l) decays are selected in events in which a hadronic decay of the second B meson is fully reconstructed. We measure B(B- -> D(0)l(-) (nu) over bar (l))/B(B- -> Xl(-) (nu) over bar (l)) = (0.255 +/- 0.009 +/- 0.009) and B((B) over bar (0) -> D(+)l(-) (nu) over bar (l))/B((B) over bar (0) -> Xl(-) (nu) over bar (l)) = (0.230 +/- 0.011 +/- 0.011), along with the differential decay distribution in (B) over bar -> Dl(-) (nu) over bar (l) decays. We then determine G(1)vertical bar V-cb vertical bar = 42.3 +/- 1.9 +/- 1.4) X 10(-3) and rho(2) = 1.20 +/- 0.09 +/- 0.04, where G(1) is the hadronic form factor at the point of zero recoil.

TI Lattice Distortion and Magnetic Quantum Phase Transition in CeFeAs1-xPxO
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS

DT Article
ID PAIRING SYMMETRY; SUPERCONDUCTIVITY; CRITICALITY; DIAGRAM; STATE
AB We use neutron diffraction to study the structural and magnetic phase diagram of CeFeAs1-xPxO. We find that replacing the larger arsenic with smaller phosphorus in CeFeAs1-xPxO simultaneously suppresses the AFM order and orthorhombic distortion near x = 0.4, thus suggesting the presence of a magnetic quantum critical point. Our detailed structural analysis reveals that the pnictogen height is an important controlling parameter for their electronic and magnetic properties, and may play an important role in electron pairing and superconductivity of these materials.

TI Enhancing the Thermoelectric Power Factor with Highly Mismatched
Isoelectronic Doping
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID SEMICONDUCTOR ALLOYS; SILICON NANOWIRES; BAND-STRUCTURE; STATES
AB We investigate the effect of O impurities on the thermoelectric properties of ZnSe from a combination of first-principles and analytic calculations. It is demonstrated that dilute amounts of O impurities introduce peaks in the density of states (DOS) above the conduction band minimum, and that the charge density near the DOS peaks is substantially attracted toward O atoms due to their high electronegativity. The impurity-induced peaks in the DOS result in a sharp increase of the room-temperature Seebeck coefficient and power factor from those of O-free ZnSe by a factor of 30 and 180, respectively. Furthermore, this effect is found to be absent when the impurity electronegativity well matches the host that it substitutes. The results suggest that highly electronegativity-mismatched alloys can be designed for high performance thermoelectric applications.

AB The spin-liquid candidate kappa-(BEDT-TTF)(2)Cu-2(CN)(3) has been studied by measuring the uniaxial expansion coefficients alpha(i), the specific heat, and magnetic susceptibility. Special emphasis was placed on the mysterious anomaly around 6 K-a potential spin-liquid instability. Distinct and strongly anisotropic lattice effects have been observed at 6 K, clearly identifying this feature as a second-order phase transition. Owing to the large anomalies in alpha(i), the application of Gruneisen scaling has enabled us to determine the corresponding specific heat contribution and the entropy release. Comparison of the latter with available spin models suggests that spin degrees of freedom alone cannot account for the phase transition. Scenarios involving charge degrees of freedom are discussed.

TI Spin Susceptibility of Noncentrosymmetric Heavy-Fermion Superconductor
CeIrSi3 under Pressure: Si-29 Knight-Shift Study on Single Crystal
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID INVERSION SYMMETRY
AB We report Si-29 NMR study on a single crystal of the heavy-fermion superconductor CeIrSi3 without an inversion symmetry along the c axis. The Si-29 Knight-shift measurements under pressure have revealed that the spin susceptibility for the ab plane decreases slightly below T-c, whereas along the c axis it does not change at all. The result can be accounted for by the spin susceptibility in the superconducting state being dominated by the strong antisymmetric (Rashba-type) spin-orbit interaction that originates from the absence of an inversion center along the c axis and it being much larger than superconducting condensation energy. This is the first observation which exhibits an anisotropy of the spin susceptibility below T-c in the noncentrosymmetric superconductor dominated by strong Rashba-type spin-orbit interaction.

TI Nematic Electronic Structure in the "Parent" State of the Iron-Based
Superconductor Ca(Fe1-xCox)(2)As-2
SO SCIENCE
LA English
DT Article
ID MOTT INSULATOR; PHASES
AB The mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity in the newly discovered iron-based superconductors is unresolved. We use spectroscopic imaging-scanning tunneling microscopy to study the electronic structure of a representative compound CaFe1.94Co0.06As2 in the "parent" state from which this superconductivity emerges. Static, unidirectional electronic nanostructures of dimension eight times the inter-iron-atom distance a(Fe-Fe) and aligned along the crystal a axis are observed. In contrast, the delocalized electronic states detectable by quasiparticle interference imaging are dispersive along the b axis only and are consistent with a nematic alpha(2) band with an apparent band folding having wave vector (q) over right arrow congruent to +/- 2 pi/8a(Fe-Fe) along the a axis. All these effects rotate through 90 degrees at orthorhombic twin boundaries, indicating that they are bulk properties. As none of these phenomena are expected merely due to crystal symmetry, underdoped ferropnictides may exhibit a more complex electronic nematic state than originally expected.

AB Isotherms for H-2/D-2-Pd0.8Ag0.2 systems have been measured over a low temperature range, 198-323 K. Such low temperature data for this system have not been obtained previously. The absorption kinetics was found to be fast. The isotherms at low temperatures are compared with literature values at or above 313 K, as well as those for H-2(D-2)-Pd systems. The H/D isotope effect and the separation factors in the plateau range over Pd0.8Ag0.2 are calculated at various temperatures and discussed, based on the isotherms. Enthalpies are extracted from van't Hoff plots and compared with calorimetric values and the results from the literature for both absorption and desorption processes. A method is given for using isotherm information from single isotope systems to estimate the separation factor for the mixed isotope systems and this is a helpful tool.
The challenge of measuring absorption isotherms at low temperatures and low pressures is discussed. Sample pre-treatment, non-soluble impurity accumulation in an absorption process and thermal transpiration effects are examined. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Quantum scattering calculations of the H+O-2 -> O+OH reaction are presented using two different representations of the electronically adiabatic potential energy surface of the HO2 system. The calculations have been performed using a three-dimensional time-independent quantum reactive scattering program based on hyperspherical coordinates. The effect of vibrational and rotational excitations of the O-2 molecule on the reactivity is investigated by carrying out calculations for vibrational quantum numbers v=0-8 and rotational quantum numbers j=1-9 for both potential surfaces. While the energy threshold for the reaction is lowered with increase in vibrational or rotational excitation of the molecule the overall energy dependence of the reaction probability remained largely unaffected with rovibrational excitations. Vibrational excitation was found to wash out resonances in the reaction probabilities. The sensitivity of the rate coefficients to the initial vibrational level of the O-2 molecule is investigated and it is found that the rate coefficient is a strong function of the vibrational quantum number of the O-2 molecule. The effect is more pronounced at low temperatures with the rate coefficient at 400 K increasing by about eight orders of magnitude when the vibrational level of O-2 is increased from 0 to 6. Thermal rate coefficients of the reaction calculated using cumulative reaction probabilities within a J-shifting approximation have been found to be in reasonable agreement with experimental results. Results show that vibrational excitation of the O-2 molecule needs to be considered in evaluating thermal rate coefficients of the reaction.

AB Quasichemical theory is utilized to analyze the relative roles of solute polarization and size in determining the structure and thermodynamics of bulk anion hydration for the Hofmeister series Cl-, Br-, and I-. Excellent agreement with experiment is obtained for whole salt hydration free energies using the polarizable AMOEBA force field. The total hydration free energies display a stronger dependence on ion size than on polarizability. The quasichemical approach exactly partitions the solvation free energy into inner-shell, outer-shell packing, and outer-shell long-ranged contributions by means of a hard-sphere condition. The inner-shell contribution becomes slightly more favorable with increasing ion polarizability, indicating electrostriction of the nearby waters. Small conditioning radii, even well inside the first maximum of the ion-water(oxygen) radial distribution function, result in Gaussian behavior for the long-ranged contribution that dominates the ion hydration free energy. This in turn allows for a mean-field treatment of the long-ranged contribution, leading to a natural division into first-order electrostatic, induction, and van der Waals terms. The induction piece exhibits the strongest ion polarizability dependence, while the larger-magnitude first-order electrostatic piece yields an opposing but weaker polarizability dependence. The van der Waals piece is small and positive, and it displays a small ion specificity. The sum of the inner-shell, packing, and long-ranged van der Waals contributions exhibits little variation along the anion series for the chosen conditioning radii, targeting electrostatic effects (influenced by ion size) as the largest determinant of specificity. In addition, a structural analysis is performed to examine the solvation anisotropy around the anions. As opposed to the hydration free energies, the solvation anisotropy depends more on ion polarizability than on ion size: increased polarizability leads to increased anisotropy. The water dipole moments near the ion are similar in magnitude to bulk water, while the ion dipole moments are found to be significantly larger than those observed in quantum mechanical studies. Possible impacts of the observed over-polarization of the ions on simulated anion surface segregation are discussed.

AB To examine chemically robust thin conjugated polymer films for use as optical and conductometric sensors, we graft polythiophene and two alkyl-based derivatives to optically transparent substrates. Though structurally contrasting to other film deposition techniques, grafted polythiophene films preserve their documented absorption, luminescence and electrical properties. Photoluminescence intensities are sensitive to trace amounts of iron and iodine in solution with reasonable Stern-Volmer constants and downward sloping Stern-Volmer plots characteristic to thin-film sensors. Rising conductivities indicate chemical doping is responsible for photoluminescence quenching. We vary reaction times and solvents to optimize desired properties and produce robust polythiophene films, verified by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, that are uniform across the substrate with thicknesses ranging from 20 to 200 nm and controllable levels of surface toughness. Due to steric effects, polythiophene and poly(3-methylthiophene) films exhibit the highest conductivities while poly(3-hexylthiophene) films exhibit greater photoluminescence efficiencies. These platforms show promise as thin films for in-solution sensing. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB We have developed an off-lattice hybrid discrete-continuum (OLHDC) model of tumor growth and invasion. The continuum part of the OLHDC model describes microenvironmental components such as matrix-degrading enzymes, nutrients or oxygen, and extracellular matrix (ECM) concentrations, whereas the discrete portion represents individual cell behavior such as cell cycle, cell-cell, and cell-ECM interactions and cell motility by the often-used persistent random walk, which can be depicted by the Langevin equation. Using this framework of the OLHDC model, we develop a phenomenologically realistic and bio/physically relevant model that encompasses the experimentally observed superdiffusive behavior (at short times) of mammalian cells. When systemic simulations based on the OLHDC model are performed, tumor growth and its morphology are found to be strongly affected by cell-cell adhesion and haptotaxis. There is a combination of the strength of cell-cell adhesion and haptotaxis in which fingerlike shapes, characteristic of invasive tumor, are observed.

AB We use flow cytometry to characterize equilibrium binding of a fluorophore-labeled trivalent model antigen to bivalent IgE-Fc epsilon RI complexes on RBL cells. We find that flow cytometric measurements are consistent with an equilibrium model for ligand-receptor binding in which binding sites are assumed to be equivalent and ligand-induced receptor aggregates are assumed to be acyclic. However, this model predicts extensive receptor aggregation at antigen concentrations that yield strong cellular secretory responses, which is inconsistent with the expectation that large receptor aggregates should inhibit such responses. To investigate possible explanations for this discrepancy, we evaluate four rule-based models for interaction of a trivalent ligand with a bivalent cell-surface receptor that relax simplifying assumptions of the equilibrium model. These models are simulated using a rule-based kinetic Monte Carlo approach to investigate the kinetics of ligand-induced receptor aggregation and to study how the kinetics and equilibria of ligand-receptor interaction are affected by steric constraints on receptor aggregate configurations and by the formation of cyclic receptor aggregates. The results suggest that formation of linear chains of cyclic receptor dimers may be important for generating secretory signals. Steric effects that limit receptor aggregation and transient formation of small receptor aggregates may also be important.

AB Resonance Raman spectroscopy has been applied to two distinct temporal species of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase during catalytic turnover. We have identified two oxygen-isotopesensitive Raman modes at 569 and 798 cm(-1) for the two respective species. The (OO)-O-16-O-18 analysis of the 798 cm(-1) band indicates the existence of a ferryl-oxo herne, which is inconsistent with the previously proposed reaction mechanism. The present study thus provides a physical basis for the structures of the possible reaction intermediates.

AB Quantifying the impacts of remote sources on individual air quality exceedances remains a significant challenge for air quality forecasting. One goal of the 2006 Second Texas Air Quality Study (TexAQS II) was to assess the impact of distant sources on air quality in east Texas. From 23 to 30 August 2006, retrievals of tropospheric carbon monoxide (CO) from NASA's Atmospheric InfraRed Sounder (AIRS) reveal the transport of CO from fires in the United States Pacific Northwest to Houston, Texas. This transport occurred behind a cold front and contributed to the worst ozone exceedance period of the summer in the Houston area. We present supporting satellite observations from the NASA A-Train constellation of the vertical distribution of smoke aerosols and CO. Ground-based in situ CO measurements in Oklahoma and Texas track the CO plume as it moves south and indicate mixing of the aloft plume to the surface by turbulence in the nocturnal boundary layer and convection during the day. Ground-based aerosol speciation and lidar observations do not find appreciable smoke aerosol transport for this case. However, MODIS aerosol optical depths and model simulations indicate some smoke aerosols were transported from the Pacific Northwest through Texas to the Gulf of Mexico. Chemical transport and forward trajectory models confirm the three major observations: (1) the AIRS envisioned CO transport, (2) the satellite determined smoke plume height, and (3) the timing of the observed surface CO increases. Further, the forward trajectory simulations find two of the largest Pacific Northwest fires likely had the most significant impact.

TI Mobilization of Colloidal Particles by Low-Frequency Dynamic Stress

DT Article
ID OIL PRODUCTION; TRANSPORT
AB Naturally Occurring seismic events and artificially generated low-frequency (1 to 500 Hz) elastic waves have been observed to alter the production rates of oil and water wells, sometimes increasing and sometimes decreasing production, and to influence the turbidity Of surface and well water. The decreases in production are of particular concern, especially when artificially generated elastic waves are applied its a method for enhanced oil recovery. The exact conditions that result in it decrease in production remain unknown. Although the underlying environment is certainly complex, the observed increase in water well turbidity after natural seismic events Suggests the existence of a mechanism that can affect both the subsurface flow paths and the mobilization of in situ colloidal particles. This article explores the macroscopic and microscopic effects of low-frequency dynamic stress Stimulations on the release of colloidal particles from an analog core representing all infinitesimal section along the propagation paths of all elastic wave. Experiments oil a column packed with 1 mm borosilicate beads and loaded with polystyrene microparticles demonstrate that axial mechanical stress oscillations enhance the mobilization of captured microparticles. Increasing the amplitude of the oscillations increases the number of microparticles released and call also result in cyclical spikes in effluent microparticle concentration during stimulation. Under a prolonged period of stimulation, the cyclical effluent spikes coincided with fluctuations in the column pressure data and continued at a diminished level after stimulation. This behavior can be attributed to rearrangements of the beads in the column, resulting in possible changes in the void space and/or tortuosity of the packing. Optical microscopy observations of the beads during low-frequency oscillations reveal that individual beads rotate, thereby rubbing against each other and scraping away portions of the adsorbed microparticles. These results support the theory that mechanical interactions between porous matrix grains are important mechanisms in now path alteration and the mobilization of naturally occurring colloidal particles during elastic wave stimulation. These results also point to both continuous and discrete en masse releases of colloidal particles, perhaps because of circulation cells within the packing material.

AB The noble synthesis method for hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanoparticles wits exploited using a fairly simple reaction of Ca(OH)(2) and H(3)PO(4), which does not generate residual harmful anions and consequently does not need an additional washing process, HAp nanoparticles were Found to yield from dicalcium phosphate dehydrate (DCPD) as the only intermediate phase, which wits monitored by in Situ observation study using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), (1)H and (31)P magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR. Furthermore, we found that the phase evolution of HAp was preceded by heteronucleation of HAp onto the MID surface. The combination of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-ES) analysis gave more information on the HAp crystallization process, which was found to be retarded by the residual Ca(OH)(2) and slow diffusion process of Ca ions into the interface between HAp and DCPD. These results demonstrate that the synthesis of pure HAp nanoparticles with high throughput can be achieved by controlling the residual Ca(OH)(2) and diffusion process of Ca ions.

AB DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) are generally considered the most critical lesion induced by ionizing radiation (IR) and may initiate carcinogenesis and other disease. Using an immunofluorescence assay to simultaneously detect nuclear foci of the phosphorylated forms of histone H2AX and ATM kinase at sites of DSBs, we examined the response of 25 apparently normal and 10 DNA repair-deficient (ATM, ATR, NBN, LIG1, LIG4, and FANCG) primary fibroblast strains irradiated with low doses of (137)CS gamma-rays. Quiescent G(0)/G(1)-phase cultures were exposed to 5, 10, and 25 cGy and allowed to repair for 24 h. The maximum level of IR-induced foci (0.15 foci per cGy, at 10 or 30 min) in the normal strains showed much less inter-individual variation (CV approximate to 0.2) than the level of spontaneous foci, which ranged from 0.2-2.6 foci/cell (CV approximate to 0.6; mean +/- SD of 1.00 +/- 0.57). Significantly slower focus formation post-irradiation was observed in seven normal strains, similar to most mutant strains examined. There was variation in repair efficiency measured by the fraction of IR-induced foci remaining 24 h post-irradiation, curiously with the strains having slower focus formation showing more efficient repair after 25 cGy. Interestingly, the ranges of spontaneous and residual induced foci levels at 24 h in the normal strains were as least as large as those observed for the repair-defective mutant strains. The inter-individual variation in DSB foci parameters observed in cells exposed to low doses of ionizing radiation in this small survey of apparently normal people suggests that hypomorphic genetic variants in genomic maintenance and/or DNA damage signaling and repair genes may contribute to differential susceptibility to cancer induced by environmental mutagens.

AB In vitro observations have revealed major effects on the structure, growth, and composition of biomineral phases, including stabilization of amorphous precursors, acceleration and inhibition of kinetics, and alteration of impurity signatures. However, deciphering the mechanistic sources of these effects has been problematic due to a lack of tools to resolve molecular structures on mineral surfaces during growth. Here we report atomic force microscopy investigations using a system designed to maximize resolution while minimizing contact force. By imaging the growth of calcium-oxalate monohydrate under the influence of aspartic-rich peptides at single-molecule resolution, we reveal how the unique interactions of polypeptides with mineral surfaces lead to acceleration, inhibition, and switching of growth between two distinct states. Interaction with the positively charged face of calcium-oxalate monohydrate leads to formation of a peptide film, but the slow adsorption kinetics and gradual relaxation to a well-bound state result in time-dependent effects. These include a positive feedback between peptide adsorption and step inhibition described by a mathematical catastrophe that results in growth hysteresis, characterized by rapid switching from fast to near-zero growth rates for very small reductions in supersaturation. Interactions with the negatively charged face result in formation of peptide clusters that impede step advancement. The result is a competition between accelerated solute attachment and inhibition due to blocking of the steps by the clusters. The findings have implications for control of pathological mineralization and suggest artificial strategies for directing crystallization.

AB We present a whole-proteome phylogeny of prokaryotes constructed by comparing feature frequency profiles (FFPs) of whole proteomes. Features are l-mers of amino acids, and each organism is represented by a profile of frequencies of all features. The selection of feature length is critical in the FFP method, and we have developed a procedure for identifying the optimal feature lengths for inferring the phylogeny of prokaryotes, strictly speaking, a proteome phylogeny. Our FFP trees are constructed with whole proteomes of 884 prokaryotes, 16 unicellular eukaryotes, and 2 random sequences. To highlight the branching order of major groups, we present a simplified proteome FFP tree of monophyletic class or phylum with branch support. In our whole-proteome FFP trees (i) Archaea, Bacteria, Eukaryota, and a random sequence outgroup are clearly separated; (ii) Archaea and Bacteria form a sister groupwhen rooted with random sequences; (iii) Planctomycetes, which possesses an intracellular membrane compartment, is placed at the basal position of the Bacteria domain; (iv) almost all groups are monophyletic in prokaryotes at most taxonomic levels, but many differences in the branching order of major groups are observed between our proteome FFP tree and trees built with other methods; and (v) previously "unclassified" genomes may be assigned to the most likely taxa. We describe notable similarities and differences between our FFP trees and those based on other methods in grouping and phylogeny of prokaryotes.

AB We report a previously undescribed bacterial behavior termed electrokinesis. This behavior was initially observed as a dramatic increase in cell swimming speed during reduction of solid MnO(2) particles by the dissimilatory metal-reducing bacterium Shewanella oneidensis MR-1. The same behavioral response was observed when cells were exposed to small positive applied potentials at the working electrode of a microelectrochemical cell and could be tuned by adjusting the potential on the working electrode. Electrokinesis was found to be different from both chemotaxis and galvanotaxis but was absent in mutants defective in electron transport to solid metal oxides. Using in situ video microscopy and cell tracking algorithms, we have quantified the response for different strains of Shewanella and shown that the response correlates with current-generating capacity in microbial fuel cells. The electrokinetic response was only exhibited by a subpopulation of cells closest to the MnO2 particles or electrodes. In contrast, the addition of 1 mM 9,10-anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonic acid, a soluble electron shuttle, led to increases in motility in the entire population. Electrokinesis is defined as a behavioral response that requires functional extracellular electron transport and that is observed as an increase in cell swimming speeds and lengthened paths of motion that occur in the proximity of a redox active mineral surface or the working electrode of an electrochemical cell.

DT Article

AB Increased power densities combined with the decreased length scales of nanosystems give rise to large thermal excitations that can drastically affect the electron population near the Fermi surface. In light of such conditions, a model is developed for electron thermal boundary conductance (eTBC) that accounts for significant changes in the electron and hole populations around the Fermi level that occur at heightened temperatures. By including the contribution of subconduction band electrons to transport and evaluating the transmission coefficient based upon the total number of available states, an extension of eTBC predictions to high temperatures is made possible.

AB Nanoscale domain growth dynamics of ferroelectric poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) thin films were investigated by piezoresponse force microscopy. A 90 nm thick ferroelectric polymer thin films were fabricated on Au substrate by spin-coating method. The domain size of nanoscale dot pattern was linearly proportional to logarithmic value of the pulse width. However there was a significant asymmetry in nucleation and lateral domain growth depending on the voltage polarity, which implies the existence of the preferred polarization states. The obtained activation field indicates the nucleation-limited domain switching behaviors of ferroelectric polymer thin films.

AB Electrostatic exfoliation of patterned few-layer-graphenes was demonstrated using a method compatible with high throughput roll-to-roll manufacturing. A patterned graphite template was placed on a roller and used to exfoliate patterned graphene on a planar substrate. The exfoliated graphene features were subsequently characterized by Raman spectroscopy. In comparison with previously demonstrated planar electrostatic exfoliation approach, the roller-style method can create a narrower distribution of thickness of few-layer-graphenes, which is attributed to the combinational action of tangential rolling friction and electrostatic forces. This roller-style electrostatic printing technique could be applied for roll-to-roll manufacturing of graphene-based devices in the future.

The independently confirmed AM1.5 conversion efficiencies are 19.3% on a float-zone wafer and 18.8% on a Czochralski wafer; conversion efficiencies show no significant light-induced degradation. The best open-circuit voltage is above 700 mV. Surface cleaning and passivation play important roles in heterojunction solar cell performance.

AB Epitaxial c-axis oriented BiFeO3 (BFO) films were fabricated on (001) oriented SrTiO3 substrates by pulsed laser deposition. Nuclear resonance backscattering spectrometry was used to directly measure the oxygen concentration of as-deposited and annealed BFO films. Compared to the ideal stoichiometry of BFO, the as-deposited BFO film shows more than 10% oxygen deficiency. However, postannealing the as-deposited BFO films reduces the oxygen deficiency almost half. The reduced oxygen vacancies in annealed BFO films are believed to be responsible for the different leakage mechanisms and the two orders of magnitude drop in leakage current density.

AB Here we explore the opportunity to design and then produce tailored release of therapeutic drugs from microcapsules. By use of "building blocks," formed from well characterized microcapsule populations, an inverse design algorithm has been developed that provides an optimal (in a least squares sense) combination of building blocks to achieve a desired release history. Previously we have reported experiments and a well validated mathematical model for computing drug release histories from PLG microcapsules, and these form the backbone of the present optimization algorithm. To expand our available basis for finding useful optimal solutions, we also report work to validate the mathematical model for two different molecular weights. Thus, our building blocks comprise populations that differ by microsphere mean diameter, polydispersity, and polymer molecular weight, giving three separate parameters that effect drug release rate, and from which we build a foundation for our tailored release. Here we have taken a basis of six different microcapsule release systems, from which we build a tailored release history using constrained optimization to fit a prescribed release profile. Comparison of predicted release with measurements from the tailored microcapsule populations was found to produce excellent results, with correlation coefficients greater than 0.98. By way of demonstration, a triple pulse design is described that illustrates the power of the method. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Exclusive electroproduction of pi(+) mesons was studied by scattering 27.6 GeV positrons or electrons off a transversely polarized hydrogen target. The single-spin azimuthal asymmetry with respect to target polarization was measured as a function of the Mandelstam variable t, the Bjorken scaling variable x(B), and the virtuality Q(2) of the exchanged photon. The extracted Fourier components of the asymmetry were found to be consistent with zero, except one that was found to be large and that involves interference of contributions from longitudinal and transverse virtual photons.

AB The transverse-target single-spin asymmetry for inclusive deep-inelastic scattering with effectively un-polarized electron and positron beams off a transversely polarized hydrogen target was measured, with the goal of searching for a two-photon exchange signal in the kinematic range 0.007 < x(B) < 0.9 and 0.25 GeV2 < Q(2) < 20 GeV2. In two separate regions Q(2) > 1 GeV2 and Q(2) < 1 GeV2, and for both electron and positron beams, the asymmetries are found to be consistent with zero within statistical and systematic uncertainties, which are of order 10(-3) for the asymmetries integrated over xB.

CA DO Collaboration
TI Measurement of the t-channel single top quark production cross section
SO PHYSICS LETTERS B

ID FERMILAB-TEVATRON; PHYSICS; EVENTS; DECAY
AB The DO Collaboration reports direct evidence for electroweak production of single top quarks through the t-channel exchange of a virtual W boson. This is the first analysis to isolate an individual single top quark production channel. We select events containing an isolated electron or muon, missing transverse energy, and two, three or four jets from 2.3 fb(-1) of p (p) over bar collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. One or two of the jets are identified as containing a b hadron. We combine three multivariate techniques optimized for the t-channel process to measure the t- and s-channel cross sections simultaneously. We measure cross sections of 3.14(-0.80)(+0.94) pb for the t-channel and 1.05 +/- 0.81 pb for the s-channel. The measured t-channel result is found to have a significance of 4.8 standard deviations and is consistent with the standard model prediction. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

TI Measurement of Z/gamma* plus jet plus X angular distributions in
p(p)over-bar collisions at root s=1.96 TeV

ID CROSS-SECTIONS; PARTON DISTRIBUTIONS; TRANSVERSE-MOMENTUM
AB We present the first measurements at a hadron collider of differential cross sections for Z/gamma* + jet + X production in Delta phi(Z. jet), vertical bar Delta y(Z, jet)vertical bar and vertical bar y(boost)(Z + jet)vertical bar. Vector boson production in association with jets is an excellent probe of QCD and constitutes the main background to many small cross section processes, such as associated Higgs production. These measurements are crucial tests of the predictions of perturbative QCD and current event generators, which have varied success in describing the data. Using these measurements as inputs in tuning event generators will increase the experimental sensitivity to rare signals. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The s-wave neutron fraction of the 0(+) levels in Be-12 has been investigated for the first time through the Be-11(d, p) transfer reaction using a 5 A MeV B-11 beam at TRIUMF, Canada. The reaction populated all the known bound states of Be-12. The ground state s-wave spectroscopic factor was determined to be 0.28(-0.07)(+0.03) while that for the long-lived 0(2)(+) excited state was 0.73(-0.40)(+0.27). This observation, together with the smaller effective separation energy indicates enhanced probability for an extended density tail beyond the Be-10 core for the 0(2)(+) excited state compared to the ground state.

AB Thermal infrared (IR) spectra of materials are affected by subpixel surface roughness that increases interactions between surface facets, thereby shifting the spectra toward a blackbody. Roughness also creates directional effects due to differential solar heating and view geometry. Three types of ground-based experiments were conducted to quantify roughness effects at scales of about 10 cm or less. First, a radiosity model was implemented and validated for natural and artificial surfaces using an imaging spectrometer. Area and resolution create practical computational limits so most simulations were performed at a resolution near 1 cm over a 1 m area. Surfaces were specified using laser profilometer data but can be simulated. Second, a well-calibrated radiometer was used to measure radiance for emissivity retrievals of different sized gravels and at different solar and view geometries. Finally, a reflectance spectrometer measured spectra for soft rocks sanded to different roughnesses.
Measurements of soft rocks with single mineral features (alabaster, soapstone, and chlorite) sanded to different roughnesses show a decrease of spectral peak height with roughness when the roughness scale is significantly larger than the wavelength. Precise measurements of two types of gravel, in three size classes of gravels, with a non-imaging spectrometer show an apparent saturation of roughness effects and a probable increase of directional effects with roughness. The modelling results show that a simple radiosity model can broadly simulate the effects of roughness. The shape of the roughness elements has a significant impact. Imaging spectrometers permit observation of small-scale spatial variations, which are not observed at pixel scales of a meter or more. Spectra go to blackbody spectra in small cracks and crevices.

AB At ORNL, we are using unique radioactive beams to measure scattering, transfer, and capture reactions to help understand exploding stars such as novae, supernovae, and X-ray bursts. Recent results have been obtained with beams of (26)Al, (17)F, and (130,132)Sn, utilizing gas targets, silicon strip detectors, and recoil separators. More exciting work is planned at the future FRIB facility. We are also using synergistic nuclear data evaluations and the Computational Infrastructure for Nuclear Astrophysics to investigate the astrophysical impact of our measurements.

AB A mechanism for creating and selecting amino acid chirality is identified, and subsequent chemical replication and galactic mixing that would populate the galaxy with the predominant species are described. This involves: (1) the spin of the N-14 in the amino acids, or in precursor molecules from which amino acids might be formed, coupling to the chirality of the molecules; 2) the neutrinos emitted from the supernova, together with magnetic field from the nascent neutron star or black hole from the supernova selectively destroying one N-14 orientation, thereby selecting the chirality associated with the other N-14 orientation; (3) amplification by chemical evolution, by which the molecules replicate on a relatively short timescale; and (4) galactic mixing on a longer timescale mixing the selected molecules throughout the galaxy.

AB To better understand the energy generation and element synthesis occurring in novae and X-ray bursts, we give quantitative definitions to the concepts of "bottlenecks" and "waiting points" in the thermonuclear reaction flow. We use these criteria to search for bottlenecks and waiting points in post-processing element synthesis explosion simulations. We have incorporated these into the Computational Infrastructure for Nuclear Astrophysics, a suite of nuclear astrophysics codes available online at nucastrodata.org, so that anyone may perform custom searches for bottlenecks and waiting points.

AB The rates of proton- and alpha-capture reactions on unstable proton-rich nuclei are needed to understand the energy generation and element synthesis occurring in novae, X-ray bursts, and other explosions. Direct measurements of the cross sections of some of these reactions are now possible with radioactive beams and a recoil separator. A new device for such measurements, the Separator for CApture Reactions [SECAR], is being designed for use at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB). The specifications and preliminary conceptual design will be discussed along with plans for the first set of measurements.

AB Tb3+ doped single crystals of huntite-type YAl3(BO3)(4) (YAB) have been characterized by means of Fourier transform absorption spectroscopy in the wave number range 500-25000 cm(-1) and in the temperature range 9-300 K, and by means of 9 K linear dichroism measurements. Crystal-field splitting of the fundamental F-7(6) and of the excited F-7(5), F-7(4), F-7(3), F-7(2), F-7(1), F-7(0), and D-5(4) manifolds of Tb3+ have been analyzed and fitted within a single ion Hamiltonian model, to obtain free-ion and crystal-field parameters. The electron-phonon interaction has been put into evidence by thermally induced line shift and discussed in the framework of a single phonon coupling model.

ID MECHANICAL-PROPERTIES; MICROSTRUCTURES; SOLIDIFICATION; ALLOY
AB Directionally solidified (DS) alloys of the eutectic systems NiAl-10Mo and NiAl-34Cr (at.%) are potential candidates for high-temperature structural applications. Here, these alloys were first arc-melted and drop-cast. Thereafter, they were directionally solidified (DS) at growth rates of 20 and 80 mm/h while rotating at a fixed rotation speed of 60 revolutions per minute. Specimens of the DS alloys were tested in three-point-bending and uniaxial compression to obtain mechanical properties, including the ductile to brittle transition temperature (DBTT). For the NiAl-Cr system DBTT was found to be around 300 degrees C. Microstructural observations revealed that in the section perpendicular to the growth direction a uniform distribution of fibres was observed. The expected decrease of the fibre diameter with increasing growth rate was not observed. Instead, the fibre diameter slightly increased with increasing crystal growth rates. First compression tests were performed to get insights into the creep behaviour of these fibre-reinforced microstructures.

ID COPPER SINGLE-CRYSTALS; DEFORMATION STRUCTURES; SUBGRAINS
AB Two copper samples, pre-deformed in tension to 5% plastic strain, are subjected to an in situ tensile deformation of 1% plastic strain while X-ray peak profiles from individual bulk grains are obtained. One sample is oriented with the in situ tensile axis parallel to the pre-deformation axis, and peak profiles are obtained with the scattering vector parallel to this direction. The profiles show the expected asymmetry explained by the composite model as caused by intra-grain stresses. The other sample is oriented with the in situ tensile axis perpendicular to the pre-deformation axis, and peak profiles are obtained with the scattering vector parallel to the in situ tensile axis. In this case the profiles initially show an opposite asymmetry, but during the in situ deformation the asymmetry reverses sign as the deformation under new loading conditions leads to changes in the intra-grain stresses.

AB Gratings-based phase contrast imaging is a promising new radiographic technique providing three distinct contrast mechanisms, absorption, phase, and scatter, using a conventional x-ray tube source. We investigate the signatures available in these three contrast mechanisms with particular attention towards potential homeland security applications. We find that the scatter mode in particular is sensitive to textured materials, enabling lowered detection limits than absorption for materials such as powders. We investigate the length scales to which our imaging system is sensitive.

DE Power distribution network; silicon pixel detector module performance
AB The Electronic Systems Engineering (ESE) Department of the Computing Division at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory is carrying out R&D investigations for the upgrade of the power distribution system of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) Pixel Tracker at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). DC-DC conversion is the preferred powering scheme proposed to be integrated for the CMS tracker to deliver high input voltage levels and performing a step-down conversion nearby the detector modules. In this work, we investigate the robustness of power distribution and perform pixel performance analysis using the DC-DC conversion powering scheme. Tests are performed using the PSI46 pixel readout chips on a forward pixel panel and the AMIS2 DC-DC converters developed at CERN. Reliability studies include the voltage drop measurements on the readout chips and the noise generated from the converter on the power lines. Performance studies include pixel noise and threshold dispersion results.

AB The High Efficiency Multimode Imager, HEMI, is a combined Compton and coded aperture imager designed to detect, localize, and characterize gamma-ray sources within the energy range from tens of keV to a few MeV. HEMI consists of cubic centimeter CdZnTe detectors with good spectral resolution (similar to 2% at 662 keV) that allow for the separation and identification of discrete gamma-ray energies. This paper describes the methods being developed to analyze spectra and identify radioisotopes using measurements from a 24-detector system, a 42-detector planar array, and simulations from a large-scale HEMI system.

AB Gadolinium has long been investigated as a detector for neutrons. It has a thermal neutron capture cross-section that is unparalleled among stable elements, because of the isotopes Gd-155,Gd-157. As a replacement for He-3, gadolinium has a significant defect, it produces many gamma-rays with an energy sum of 8 MeV. It also produces conversion electrons, mostly 29 keV in energy. The key to replacing He-3 with gadolinium is using a gamma-blind electron detector to detect the conversion electrons. We suggest that coupling a layer of gadolinium to a Plasma Panel Sensor (PPS) can provide highly efficient, nearly gamma-blind detection of the conversion. The PPS is a proposed detector under development as a dense array of avalanche counters based on plasma display technology. We will present simulations of the response of prototypes of this detector and considerations of the use of gadolinium in the PPS.

AB The SuperB experiment needs large samples of Monte-Carlo simulated events in order to finalize the detector design and to estimate the data analysis performances. This work describes the system we developed to manage the production of the required simulated events in a fully distributed environment. The distributed infrastructure includes several sites in Europe and North America and is based on Grid services. The production of simulated events consists of: distribution of input data files to the remote site Storage Elements (SE), job submission to all available remote sites, output data transfer to the INFN-CNAF repository. The job workflow includes procedures for consistency checking, monitoring, data handling and bookkeeping metadata communication. A data bookkeeping system has been implemented in order to maintain the information associated to data files and keep track of the relations between executed jobs and their parameters and outputs. The distributed production system is operational since February 2010. Results from the first production cycles (Spring 2010 and Summer 2010) are reported.

ID P-N JUNCTIONS; MICROCHANNEL PLATE; IONIZATION RATES
AB Microchannel plates (MCPs) are widely used in photodetectors with a picosecond resolution. Two main characteristics of MCPs, gain and timing resolution, strongly depend on the materials parameters, as well as on the history of electron avalanche evolution. The most important effect that can significantly change the efficiency of an MCP is the effect of saturation of the electronic current, which occurs at high-level input signals. In this paper, the saturation effects are studied numerically, as they are applicable to analysis of large-area, fast photodetectors. It is shown that the saturation effect for short pulses can be reduced by introducing a thin, resistive layer between the bulk material and the emissive coating. The gain and time resolution dependencies on the pore size and voltage are studied numerically. The results are compared with the simulations of other authors and available experimental data.

DE Variance estimation; radiation analysis; multi-sensor fusion
AB Variance estimates that are used in the analysis of radiation measurements must represent all of the measurement and computational uncertainties in order to obtain accurate parameter and uncertainty estimates. This report describes an approach for estimating components of the variance associated with both statistical and computational uncertainties. A multi-sensor fusion method is presented that renders parameter estimates for one-dimensional source models based on input from different types of sensors. Data obtained with multiple types of sensors improve the accuracy of the parameter estimates, and inconsistencies in measurements are also reflected in the uncertainties for the estimated parameter. Specific analysis examples are presented that incorporate a single gross neutron measurement with gamma-ray spectra that contain thousands of channels. The parameter estimation approach is tolerant of computational errors associated with detector response functions and source model approximations.

DE tracking; position-sensitive detectors; Kalman filtering;
multi-hypothesis tracking
AB We report on the application of techniques from the target tracking literature to the experimental study of the distribution of charged particles. In the experiment we have multiple planes of position-sensitive detectors able to detect locations of particle hits in each sensitive plane. The problem we address here is determining how to combine a series of particular hits into a particle trajectory. This simple task is complicated by the specifics of the measurements, missed hits and background. In the target tracking literature, the challenge of associating hits in different images is called the association problem, and current best practice is Multi-Hypothesis Tracking or MHT. Recent work has investigated the possibility of using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods for addressing the multi-hypothesis challenge. In our study we report on results from both approaches and on the trade off between computational budget and accuracy. We extend the usual MHT formalism to select tracks with certain qualities and set quality flags as required by the experiment. In our presentation we describe in more detail our approach and preliminary results of its application to the experimental data.

AB PHENIX [1] is one of two large experiments at Brookhaven National Laboratory's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The summer shutdown of 2010 marked the begin of the installation of the PHENIX upgrade detectors, the first of which being commissioned for the upcoming Run 11. In order to accommodate the new detectors in the PHENIX data acquisition, we will start to implement significant changes to the system, such as the switch to a new generation of readout electronics, and the move to 10 Gigabit Ethernet for the components with the highest data volume. Once fully installed, the new detectors will about triple the current maximum data rate from about 600MB/s to 1.8 GB/s.

AB A card which does the signal processing for four SQUID amplifiers and two charge sensitive channels is described. The card performs the same functions as is presently done with two custom 9U x 280 mm Eurocard modules, a commercial multi-channel VME digitizer, a PCI to GPIB interface, a PCI to VME interface and a custom built linear power supply. By integrating these functions onto a single card and using the power over Ethernet standard, the infrastructure requirements for instrumenting a Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS) detector test stand are significantly reduced.

AB We report on the design of the VIPIC IC (Vertically Integrated Pixel Imaging Chip) designed for X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy (XPCS) experiments by FNAL in collaboration with AGH-UST. The VIPIC chip is a prototype matrix with 64 x 64 pixels with 80 mu m x 80 mu m pixel size and consists of two layers: analog and digital. The single analog pixel cell consists of a charge sensitive amplifier, a shaper, a single current discriminator and trim DACs. The simulated gain is 52 mu V/e(-), the noise ENC < 150 e(-) rms (with C-det = 100 fF) and the peaking time t(p) < 250 ns. The power consumption is 25 mu W/pixel in the analog part. The digital layer of the VIPIC integrated circuit is divided into 16 readout groups of pixels read out in parallel via separate serial ports with nominal frequency of the 100 MHz clock using the LVDS standard. The readout within each group is zero-suppressed. The sparsification scheme (addresses of hit pixels only) allows a dead-time free readout.

ID DETECTORS
AB Monolithic Active Matrix with Binary Counters (MAMBO) is a counting ASIC designed for detecting and measuring low energy X-rays from 6-12keV. Each pixel contains analogue functionality implemented with a charge preamplifier, CR-RC2 shaper and a baseline restorer. It also contains a window comparator which can be trimmed by 4 bit DACs to remove systematic offsets. The hits are registered by a 12 bit ripple counter which is reconfigured as a shift register to serially output the data from the entire ASIC. Each pixel can be tested individually. Two diverse approaches have been used to prevent coupling between the detector and electronics in MAMBO III and MAMBO IV. MAMBO III is a 3D ASIC, the bottom ASIC consists of diodes which are connected to the top ASIC using mu-bump bonds. The detector is decoupled from the electronics by physically separating them on two tiers and using several metal layers as a shield. MAMBO IV is a monolithic structure which uses a nested well approach to isolate the detector from the electronics. The ASICs are being fabricated using the SOI 0.2 mu m OKI process, MAMBO III is 3D bonded at T-Micro and MAMBO IV nested well structure was developed in collaboration between OKI and Fermilab.

ID INTEGRATED-CIRCUITS
AB Vertex detectors for High Energy Physics experiments require pixel detectors featuring high spatial resolution, very good signal to noise ratio and radiation hardness. A way to face new challenges of ATLAS/SLHC future hybrid pixel vertex detectors is to use the emerging 3-D Integrated Technologies. However, commercial offers of such technologies are only very few and the 3-D designer's choice is then hardly constrained. Moreover, as radiation hardness and specially SEU tolerance of configuration registers is a crucial issue for SLHC vertex detectors and, as commercial data on this point are always missing, a reliable qualification program is to be developed for any candidate technology. We will present the design and test (including radiation tests with 70 kV, 60W X-Ray source and 24 GeV protons) of Chartered, 130nm Low Power 2-D chips realized for this qualification.

ID LIGHT COLLECTION
AB There is an ever increasing demand for gamma-ray detectors which can achieve good energy resolution, high detection efficiency, and room-temperature operation. We are working to address each of these requirements through the development of large volume SrI2(Eu) scintillator detectors. In this work, we have evaluated a variety of SrI2 crystals with volumes > 10 cm(3). The goal of this research was to examine the causes of energy resolution degradation for larger detectors and to determine what can be done to mitigate these effects. Testing both packaged and unpackaged detectors, we have consistently achieved better resolution with the packaged detectors. Using a collimated gamma-ray source, it was determined that better energy resolution for the packaged detectors is correlated with better light collection uniformity. A number of packaged detectors were fabricated and tested and the best spectroscopic performance was achieved for a 3% Eu doped crystal with an energy resolution of 2.93% FWHM at 662keV. Simulations of SrI2(Eu) crystals were also performed to better understand the light transport physics in scintillators and are reported. This study has important implications for the development of SrI2(Eu) detectors for national security purposes.

AB Because of their penetrating power, energetic neutrons and gamma rays (similar to 1 MeV) offer the best possibility of detecting highly shielded or distant special nuclear material (SNM). Of these, fast neutrons offer the greatest advantage due to their very low and well understood natural background. We are investigating a new approach to fast-neutron imaging-a coded aperture neutron imaging system (CANIS). Coded aperture neutron imaging should offer a highly efficient solution for improved detection speed, range, and sensitivity. We have demonstrated fast neutron and gamma ray imaging with several different configurations of coded masks patterns and detectors including an "active" mask that is composed of neutron detectors. Here we describe our prototype detector and present some initial results from laboratory tests and demonstrations.

ID DIRECTIONAL ANISOTROPY
AB An anisotropy in a scintillator's response to neutron elastic scattering interactions can in principle be used to gather directional information about a neutron source using interactions in a single detector. In crystalline organic scintillators, such as anthracene, both the amplitude and the time structure of the scintillation light pulse vary with the direction of the proton recoil with respect to the crystalline axes. Therefore, we have investigated the exploitation of this effect to enable compact, high-efficiency fast neutron detectors that have directional sensitivity via a precise measurement of the pulse shape. We report measurements of the pulse height and shape dependence on proton recoil angle in anthracene, stilbene, p-terphenyl, diphenyl anthracene (DPA), and tetraphenyl butadiene (TPB). Image reconstruction for simulated neutron sources is demonstrated using maximum likelihood methods for optimal directional sensitivity.

AB We introduce a front-end application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) for a wire based Time-Projection-Chamber (TPC) operating in liquid Argon (LAr). The LAr TPC will be used for long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments. The ASIC must provide low-noise readout of the signals induced on the TPC wires, digitization of those signals at 2 MS/s, compression, buffering and multiplexing. A resolution better than 1000 rms electrons at 200 pF input capacitance for an input range of 300 fC is required, along with low power and operation in LAr (at 87 K). We present the characterization of a commercial technology for operation in cryogenic environment and the first experimental results on the analog front-end. The results demonstrate that CMOS transistors have lower noise and much improved dc characteristics at LAr temperature. Finally, we introduce the concept of "1/f equivalent" to model the low-frequency component of the noise spectral density, for use in the input MOSFET optimization.

ID SYSTEM
AB The (CO2)-C-11 tracer is used to facilitate plant biology research towards optimization of plant productivity, biofuel development and carbon sequestration in biomass. Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging has been used to study carbon transport in live plants using (CO2)-C-11. Plants typically have very thin leaves resulting in little medium for the emitted positrons to undergo an annihilation event. For the emitted positron from C-11 decay approximately 1mm of water equivalent material is needed for positron annihilation. Thus most of the positrons do not annihilate inside the leaf, resulting in limited sensitivity for PET imaging. To address this problem we have developed a compact beta-positive beta-minus particle (BPBM) imager for (CO2)-C-11 leaf imaging. The detector is based on a Hamamatsu H8500 position sensitive photomultiplier tube optically coupled via optical grease and a 3mm thick glass plate to a 0.5mm thick Eljin EJ-212 plastic scintillator. The detector is equipped with a flexible arm to allow its placement and orientation on the leaf of the plant of interest while maintaining the leaf's original orientation. We are planning to utilize the imaging device at the Duke University Phytotron to investigate dynamic carbon transport differences between invasive and native species.

ID CRYSTALLOGRAPHY
AB Modern day research in a variety of disciplines requires sensitive neutron detectors having a high spatial resolution that are able to discriminate against unwanted gamma ray events. A novel detector concept comprising cylindrical plastic scintillators embedded in a fiber optic array was designed and developed to determine if the desired performance can be attained. Monte-Carlo design studies were performed to optimize detector geometry and calculate the anticipated neutron detection efficiency. Prototype detectors were characterized by measuring detection efficiency and pulse height spectra using isotopic neutron and gamma-ray sources. Images of neutron absorbing phantoms were acquired with a lens-coupled EMCCD viewing the sample during neutron irradiation via a surface coated 45 degrees mirror.
Specimens with areas up to 6 x 6 cm(2) were fabricated by submerging fiberoptic arrays with a capillary diameter of 100 mu m and a relative open area of 83% in a polymer of the desired mixture and curing slowly. Increasing the concentration of boron was observed to reduce light output by as much as 28% for the highest boron concentrations tested. Pulse height spectra from the samples exhibited a peak characteristic of neutron capture in boron at an energy (electron equivalent) of approximately 90 keV and the detection efficiency for a 5.7 mm thick scintillator containing 5% o-carborane was 40%, which agrees with calculations. The spatial resolution of these detectors is 250 mu m as determined from the modulation transfer function at 10% modulation.

AB Lithium glass scintillator made from Li-6-enriched substrate is a well known for its neutron detection capability. In spite of neutron interaction, cross section of Li-6 happens to be lower than that of He-3. However, the neutron detection efficiency could be higher due to higher volume content of Li-6 nuclear in the solid scintillator vs. gas filled proportional counter. At the same time, as lithium glass is sensitive to gamma and charge particle radiation, non-neutron radiation discrimination is required. Our detector is composed of two equal-size cylindrical Li(Ce) glass scintillators. The first one is high-sensitive to thermal neutrons GS-20 (Li-6 doped), the second one is GS-30 (Li-7 doped) type Scint-Gobain made lithium glass scintillator. Each of scintillators is coupled with R7400U Hamamatsu subminiature photomultiplier tube, and all assembly is fitted into NP100H He-3 tube size. Li-6 absorbs thermal neutrons releasing alpha particles and triton with 4.8 MeV total energy deposit inside the scintillator (equivalent to about similar to 1.3 MeV gamma energy depositions). Because Li-7 isotope does not absorb thermal neutrons, and the physical properties of the two scintillators are virtually identical, the difference between these two scintillators could be used to provide neutron dose rate information. Results of study of neutron detector assembled of two Li(Ce) scintillators and NP100H moderator are presented.

DE supernovae; He-3 neutron detectors; SNOLAB; ORCA
AB The Helium and Lead Observatory (HALO) is a dedicated supernova detector constructed in the underground facilities at SNOLAB in Sudbury, Canada. It is designed to detect neutrinos from a supernova within the Milky Way galaxy using lead blocks and He-3 neutron detectors. Analysis of supernova neutrino events can produce new discoveries in astrophysics and fundamental particle physics. HALO will be a participant in the Supernova Early Warning System (SNEWS), which will rely on the time delay between neutrino emission and visible light emission to provide notification to astronomers of an imminent observable supernova. This article discusses the data acquisition system of HALO, including the software ORCA, electronics components, data flow, and the design of the high-voltage and signal connections for the He-3 neutron detectors.

AB This paper reports on a SOI detector with drift field induced by the flow of majority carriers. It is proposed as an alternative method of detector biasing compared to standard depletion. N-drift rings in n-substrate are used at the front side of the detector to provide charge collecting field in depth as well as to improve the lateral charge collection. The concept was verified on a 2.5 x 2.5 mm(2) large detector array with 20 mu m and 40 mu m pixel pitch fabricated in August 2009 using the OKI semiconductor process. First results, obtained with a radioactive source to demonstrate spatial resolution and spectroscopic performance of the detector for the two different pixel sizes, will be shown and compared to results obtained with a standard depletion scheme. Two different diode designs, one using a standard p-implantation and one surrounded by an additional BPW implant will be compared as well.

ID DETECTOR
AB A second-generation monolithic silicon radiation sensor has been built and characterized. This pixel detector has CMOS circuitry fabricated directly in the high-resistivity float-zone substrate. The bulk is fully depleted from bias applied to the backside diode. Within the array, PMOS pixel circuitry forms the first stage amplifiers. Full CMOS circuitry implementing further amplification as well as column and row logic is located in the periphery of the pixel array. This allows a sparse-field readout scheme where only pixels with signals above a certain threshold are readout. We describe the fabrication process, circuit design, system performance, and results of gamma-ray radiation tests.

AB For the successful operation of the Hadron Blind Detector (HBD) of the PHENIX Experiment at RHIC, it is essential that the radiator gas quality be continuously monitored. This is accomplished through the use of a gas transmission monitor, which is based on a customized McPherson 234/302 VUV spectrometer. After studying the performance characteristics of the spectrometer at the completion of RHIC Run9, a number of improvements were implemented to greatly improve its performance during Run10, including the replacement of all of the system optics. Following this upgrade, the transmission monitor was successfully used to monitor the gas quality of the HBD for the most recent Au+Au run at RHIC. With the aid of the transmission monitor, the absolute integrated transmittance of the detector was used to determine an absolute measure of the HBD detector efficiency throughout the run.

AB Certain experimental questions in molecular imaging can be answered with projection imaging systems rather than tomographs. Accordingly, we have designed, assembled and are now testing a projection imaging system able to visualize the whole-body distribution of positron-emitting compounds in mouse-size animals. When completed, this positron projection imager (PPI) will plug into the MONICA portable dual gamma camera system to provide the user with a positron projection imaging capability and all of the data acquisition and analysis features available with MONICA for single photon projection imaging.

AB This work is concerned with applying iterative image reconstruction, based on constrained total-variation minimization, to low-intensity X-ray CT systems that have a high sampling rate. Such systems pose a challenge for iterative image reconstruction, because a very fine image grid is needed to realize the resolution inherent in such scanners. These image arrays lead to under-determined imaging models whose inversion is unstable and can result in undesirable artifacts and noise patterns. There are many possibilities to stabilize the imaging model, and this work proposes a method which may have an advantage in terms of algorithm efficiency. The proposed method introduces additional constraints in the optimization problem; these constraints set to zero high spatial frequency components which are beyond the sensing capability of the detector. The method is demonstrated with an actual CT data set and compared with another method based on projection up-sampling.

AB Development has continued with intrinsic feature optical motion tracking for awake animal imaging to measure 3D position and orientation (pose) for motion compensated reconstruction. Prior imaging results have been directed towards head motion measurement for SPECT brain studies in awake unrestrained mice. This work improves on those results in extracting and tracking intrinsic features from multiple camera images and computing pose changes from the tracked features over time. Previously, most motion tracking for 3D imaging has been limited to measuring extrinsic features such as retro-reflective markers applied to an animal's head. While this approach has been proven to be accurate, the use of external markers is undesirable for several reasons. The intrinsic feature approach has been further developed from previous work to provide full pose measurements for a live mouse scan. Surface feature extraction, matching, and pose change calculation with point tracking and accuracy results are described. Experimental pose calculation and 3D reconstruction results from live images are presented.

AB This paper presents imaging and modeling aspects of an interdisciplinary study of subsurface pollution and environmental remediation. F18 -FDG PET and Tc99m - NaTcO4 SPECT studie s were performed to follow dynamic changes in the radiotracer distribution in model systems. Radioisotope solution was pumped through the test columns filled with sand or sediment in order to reproduce subsurface conditions of groundwater flow through satu rated sediment layers. Dynamic sequences of the radiotracer distribution were acquired and analyzed. The ultimate goal was to measure porosity and parameters of the sediment and, in the future, to study radiotracer immobilization in the column through reductive precipitation. In order to extract the relevant information from the dynamic images, computational fluid dynamics model of the liquid flow in porous medium were designed and implemented. Qualitative similarities between the imaged and simulated radio tracer distributions were achieved with appropriate values of the computational mesh, the local medium permeability, and other model parameters.

ID SCINTILLATION CAMERA
AB Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) has essentially remained an unchanged technology since the introduction of parallel-hole collimation in 1964 and stands to gain significantly from sensitivity improvements. Benefits from improved sensitivity include shorter acquisition times and smaller dose requirements. An order of magnitude increase in sensitivity over conventional technology is possible with the use of multipinhole collimators on conventional SPECT cameras. Here we present MGEANT Monte Carlo simulation results of a dual-isotope myocardial perfusion imaging study performed with a pair of focusing 20-pinhole collimators with tungsten apertures demonstrating that a complete rest/stress study is possible in 10 minutes with a reduced Tc-99m dose. Two radionuclides were simulated, Tc-99m (500 mu Ci, rest) and Tl-201 (200 mu Ci, stress), with 20% and 30% window sizes, respectively. Full isotropic emission was simulated for 8 gamma-ray lines. The imaging protocol consisted of 2 views per head with 300 s per view. The activity distributions were derived from the mathematical cardiac and torso (MCAT) phantom. Attenuation was modeled using a water phantom. Images were reconstructed using 75 iterations of pixel-based ordered subsets expectation maximization and post-filtered with an 12.5 mm (FWHM) 3D Gaussian filter. Scatter corrections were performed using the triple energy window method. Scatter comprises 37% and 61% of the total counts in the Tc-99m and Tl-201 energy windows, respectively. Tc-99m downscatter contributes 52% of the scatter component in the Tl-201 window, though tungsten fluorescence is negligible (0.2%).

AB The current 3D XCAT phantom allows users to manually define the regional myocardial perfusion defect (MPD) as a simple pie-shaped wedge region with reduced activity level in the myocardium of left ventricle. To more accurately and realistically model the MPD, we have developed a new regional MPD model for the 3D XCAT phantom for myocardial perfusion SPECT (MP-SPECT) studies based on the location and the severity of the stenosis in a computer generated coronary arterial tree. First, we generated a detailed coronary arterial tree by extending the large proximal branches segmented from patient CT images to cover the whole heart using an iterative rule-based algorithm. Second, we determined the affected downstream vascular segments of a given stenosis. Third, we computed the activity of each myocardial region as a function of the inverse-distance-weighted average of the flow of the neighboring vascular segments. Fourth, we generated a series of bull's-eye maps of MP-SPECT images of different coronary artery stenosis scenarios. Fifth, we had expert physician readers to qualitatively assess the bull's-eye maps based on their similarity to typical clinical cases in terms of the shape, the extent, and the severity of the MPDs. Their input was used to iteratively revise the coronary artery tree model so that the MPDs were closely matched to those found in bull's-eye maps from patient studies. Finally, from our simulated MP-SPECT images, we observed that (1) the locations of the MPDs caused by stenoses at different main arteries were different largely according to their vascular territories, (2) a stenosis at a proximal branch produced a larger MPD than the one at a distal branch, and (3) a more severe stenosis produced a larger MPD than the less severe one. These observations were consistent to those found in clinical cases. Therefore, this new regional MPD model has enhanced the generation of realistic pathological MP-SPECT images using the XCAT phantom. When combining with the mechanical model of the myocardium, the new model can be extended for the simulation of 4D gated MP-SPECT simulation of a pathological heart with both perfusion and motion defects.

AB Modern Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are capable of performing complex discrete signal processing algorithms with clock rates above 100MHz. This combined with FPGA's low expense, ease of use, and selected dedicated hardware make them an ideal technology for a data acquisition system for a positron emission tomography (PET) scanner. The University of Washington is producing a high-resolution, small-animal PET scanner that utilizes FPGAs as the core of the front-end electronics. For this next generation scanner, functions that are typically performed in dedicated circuits, or offline, are being migrated to the FPGA. This will not only simplify the electronics, but the features of modern FPGAs can be utilizes to add significant signal processing power to produce higher resolution images. In this paper we report on an all-digital pulse pileup correction algorithm that is being developed for the FPGA. The pileup mitigation algorithm will allow the scanner to run at higher count rates without incurring large data losses due to the overlapping of scintillation signals. This correction technique utilizes a reference pulse to extract timing and energy information for most pileup events. Using pulses were acquired from a Zecotech Photonics MAPDN with an LFS-3 scintillator, we show that good timing and energy information can be achieved in the presence of pileup.

AB A brain single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imager is simulated for obtaining high resolution brain scans for diagnosing brain ischemia. In this simulation the camera consists of one large field of view detector with parallel-hole collimation and a smaller field of view high resolution detector with pinhole collimation. The parallel-hole collimated detector images the whole brain and acquires data without truncation. It localizes areas of particular diagnostic interest, and also provides support information for the reconstruction of data acquired by the pinhole collimated detectors. The pinhole collimated detector images small regions of the brain. It provides high resolution truncated projections, from which a high resolution region of interest (ROI) is obtained. The reconstruction is performed using a maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate with total variation regularization within the ROI. The low resolution image from the parallel-hole collimated detector is used as prior information. This improves the quantitation for the interior problem. The combination of a large field of view parallel-hole collimated detector and a smaller field of view high resolution pinhole detector improves the quantitation in the simulated brain imaging study. It makes use of the high sensitivity of the pinhole collimator while compensates for the degradation in the reconstructed image due to interior problem caused by the small field of view of the pinhole collimator. Our simulations show potential for clinical application, where the quantitation of cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral vascular reactivity (CVR) are valuable in diagnosis of ischemia, and the quantitation of benzodiazepine receptor density is important in evaluating neuronal damage due to ischemic effects.

AB The photon counting detectors such as cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) and cadmium telluride (CdTe) have powerful advantages compared to energy integrating detectors. CZT or CdTe can detect individual gamma-ray or x-ray photon with energy discrimination. In recent years, energy-resolving and material decomposition x-ray imaging based on photon counting detectors has attracted attention from biomedical imaging researchers. We evaluated a large-area (20 cm x 20 cm) CZT detector originally built as a radionuclide detector for a small animal SPECT/CT system in combination of a microfocus x-ray source with a general goal of developing a material-decomposition imaging method. In this paper, we present experimental results from a feasibility study of multi-material decomposition imaging using the developed small animal SPECT/CT system.
Our small animal SPECT/CT system has the unique capability to arrange detectors and sources flexibly. For the multi-material decomposition scan, the CZT detector and the x-ray tube were re-arranged in line. List-mode data of a phantom containing 7 different materials, with a range of densities and atomic numbers, illuminated by x-ray were acquired. The x-ray exposure conditions were: 50 kVp and 0.5 mA with 1.5-mm Al filtration. The acquired image was corrected for bad and hot pixels, gain, and offset. The attenuation profiles of each material were calculated against the x-ray energy.
Measured attenuation profiles of each material were in a good agreement with the reference data of the NIST physics laboratory. In this study, we demonstrated that multi-material decomposition imaging is experimentally feasible using the photon-counting CZT detector and polychromatic x-ray. Since our system allows rotation and a large active area of CZT, we will acquire material-decomposition data tomographically in the near future.

AB We have built and evaluated a gamma-ray imaging detector for PET and simultaneous PET-MRI with the goal of providing sub-mm spatial resolution in all 3 dimensions. It consists of a solid slab of LYSO coupled to arrays of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) on both sides. The design is relatively cost-effective because it requires minimal mechanical processing of the scintillator, and because the photosensors are relatively large resulting in a small number of readout channels. Positioning algorithms employed include simple Anger centroid and a unique maximum likelihood approach with a measured system model which was developed for a previous generation APD-based detector. The design and construction of the detector, front-end electronics, data acquisition, and data processing methods are presented. The SiPM arrays are characterized and preliminary measures of energy, timing, and spatial resolution have been obtained, indicating promising performance.

AB Multimodality imaging has an increasingly important role in the diagnosis and treatment of a large number of diseases, particularly if both functional and structural information are acquired and accurately registered. Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) imaging is currently an integral part of prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment procedures, providing high-resolution anatomical detail of the prostate region. PET imaging with C-11-choline is a sensitive functional imaging technique that can identify biochemical states associated with prostate cancer. We believe that merging these prostate imaging technologies will help identify the location and aggressiveness of prostate cancer. We envision using dual PET-TRUS prostate imaging to guide biopsy, guide treatment procedures, and detect local recurrence earlier than is currently possible. Hence, we have developed a dual PET-TRUS prostate imaging system and protocol designed to allow accurate 3-D image registration. We have evaluated this PET-TRUS system by performing dual PET-TRUS imaging of custom phantoms. We describe here our dual-modality system, custom phantoms and phantom study results. We also discuss our investigation of the PET-TRUS registration accuracy. We currently have a PET-TRUS registration error of 1 mm axially and 1-5 mm transaxially (depending on the image study, image slice, and line source measured), which is sufficient for clinical applications such as biopsy guidance and early detection of recurrence.

AB Dynamic cardiac single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) offers an effective way for observing fundamental physiological functions of organs and could aid in the early diagnosis of cardiovascular disease, in particular, for those patients with minimal disease. This would improve the chances of recovery by initiating appropriate therapy and an altered life style. To make dynamic cardiac SPECT viable with present clinical scanners methods need to be developed that reconstruct time activity curves from dynamically moving organs representing the change of tracer concentration as a function of time from projection data acquired from slowly rotating gamma cameras. This type of data analysis faces the challenge of modeling both rigid and non-rigid body deformation as well as modeling of a time varying tracer concentration. In the work presented here, we develop methods for segmenting the beating heart using an approach based upon level sets, which can deal naturally with topological changes. A variational formulation of the level set method was implemented. This allowed the inclusion of a priori information and was computationally efficient. The algorithm was first evaluated with simulated dynamic cardiac image data. The MCAT phantom was used to generate data containing 32 time frames over one cardiac cycle. Each frame had a matrix size of 64x64x32 voxels with a resolution of 6.25 mm. Starting with an initial estimate of the boundary, the algorithm then converged to an accurate segmentation of the deforming heart. The initial estimate was not important and we could segment simultaneously both interior and exterior boundaries. This algorithm forms the foundation for the segmentation of the boundary of the deforming myocardium directly from projection data.

AB Cadmium Zinc Telluride (CZT) is one of the most exploited materials for x-ray and gamma ray radiation detection. Nevertheless CZT ingots are still affected by many defects, the most common features are Te inclusions, dislocations and grain boundaries. In this work the results of many investigation techniques are put together and compared in order to have a better understanding of the role of each defect in the degradation of the detector performances. A CZT ingot grown by low pressure Bridgman technique in IMEM Institute, Parma, was analyzed. The material was studied by means of the IR microscopy, for the identification of Te inclusions and then studied with the use of the synchrotron light source (NSLS National Synchrotron Light Source) for the analysis of the crystalline structure and uniformity of the x-ray response.

AB Planar detectors have been fabricated on 0.5 mm thick TlBr crystals grown by Radiation Monitoring Devices (RMD). The crystals have been characterized by microhardness measurements. A surface damage layer resulting from mechanical polishing has been measured to be approximately 3.7 mu m thick. We have removed this layer with H2O2 chemical etching and compared device performance with and without the presence of the surface damage layer and found significant differences in the initial and long term current-voltage behavior and radiation response. Detectors treated with H2O2 to remove this layer have been shown to display superior performance as compared to unetched detectors followed a period of "field annealing".

AB We present a novel concept of the SNM imaging system based on cosmic-ray muon tracking in coincidence with neutron/gamma detection. The cosmic-ray flux at sea level is about 1 muon/sq.cm/minute. It is composed of nearly equal numbers of mu+ and mu-. In previous work, we have demonstrated that these muons can be used to image nuclear threats in relatively short times by measuring their multiple scattering through objects. Here we propose to image nuclear objects by combining tracking of the muons into a scene with measurements of the secondary particles produced when the muons stop in dense potentially fissile materials. We use multiple drift tube planes to trace incoming cosmic rays. Plastic scintillator serves as a detector of outgoing neutrons and gamma-rays. Additionally, the same plastic scintillator is used to estimate the energy of incoming cosmic-rays. We use a coincidence of n/gamma detection with the initial cosmic-ray trigger to suppress the background. The fissions produced by the stopped mu- generate fission chains that die away after several (similar to 5) fissions. Each fission produces similar to 10 energetic gamma rays and similar to 2.5 neutrons. Although a self-shielding needs to be considered, it is likely that tens of neutrons and gamma rays will escape from the object of typical configuration. The efficiency of detecting at least one of the products within similar to 100 ns could be close to 100% for a detector of reasonably large solid angle (similar to 2 ster). Ten minutes of data should produce 50 trajectories from mu- stopped in 20 kg of U. These numbers can be scaled for other size objects. Our approach has no active source, and therefore it is safe for humans and has no effect on the object under inspection. The detectors are scalable and portable. The drift tubes of the detectors are sealed and do not need the gas replenishment. Detection and localization of SNM is achieved with automatic reconstruction algorithm, which can be run at a standard computer.

AB Mercuric iodide single crystals have been used successfully as gamma radiation detectors for many years. Recently a different growth method called 'seeded homoepitaxy' has been studied. This method has the advantage of growing detector-sized volumes with a thickness of about 10mm in a highly accelerated timeframe. The electronic transport properties of a mercuric iodide detector have been shown to depend primarily upon two factors. The first is material quality, which is predominantly determined by the levels of organic and inorganic impurities and the compound stoichiometry. The second is the integrity of the crystalline structure (type and density of defects), which depends mostly upon the thermal growth profile, conditions inside the growth chamber, and seed preparation.
Recent improvements made to the epitaxial process have resulted in a detector performance for both planar and pixelated devices that rivals that of traditional ampoule-grown crystals. This increases the usefulness of devices in field applications. Changes in the seed attachment and preparation methods have been successful at reducing crystalline defects by about 90%. This has been substantiated using a method of measuring and recording defect density that combines laser backscatter with digital photography. Improvements in the mercuric iodide growth process, bulk material impurity reduction, and the laser backscatter digital photography will be described and the results discussed.

AB Renewable energy sources and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are becoming very popular in research areas, as well as in the market. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate how a solar powered building interacts with energy storage and how it can be used to power a PHEV and to support the grid with peak shaving, load shifting, and reducing annual energy usage. A net zero energy house (ZEH5) is selected as the base house for this experiment. Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is developing simulation models and energy management scenarios using the actual solar production and residential energy usage data, and a PHEV. The system interaction with the grid is evaluated after getting all the data from PHEV charging, photovoltaic (PV) power production, and residential load.

AB As renewable resources start providing an increasingly larger percentage of our energy needs, we need to improve our understanding of these intermittent resources so we can manage them better. In the case of wind resources, large unscheduled changes in the energy output, called ramp events, make it challenging to keep the load and the generation balanced. In this paper, we show that simple statistical analysis of the wind energy generation can provide quantitative insights into these ramp events. In particular, this analysis can help answer questions such as the time period during the day when these events are likely to occur, the relative severity of positive and negative ramps, and the frequency of their occurrence.

AB This paper presents a methodology for the prediction of power system balancing requirement and the probability of tail event (large imbalance between generation and load). Maintaining sufficient balancing reserves to match the difference between hourly generation schedule and real-time variable load and intermittent resources becomes more and more challenging with the increasing penetration of intermittent energy sources. The presented methodology uses yearly distributions and hourly distributions of balancing requirement and tail events to provide a high level look at the issue and warn system operators of those hours when problems are most likely to occur. For real-time prediction, a Bayes net model is constructed to model the statistical relationships between system imbalance and forecast errors, generation schedule control errors and other influential factors. The methodology will be able to provide reference information to system operators in determining the sufficiency of system balancing reserve and taking appropriate control actions.

AB This paper presents a new method to improve the accuracy of the DC power flow results while maintaining its computation efficiency and linear formulation. The proposed method uses empirical knowledge of the system, including observed voltage magnitudes and angles from historical data, to formulate correction terms. The correction terms are applied to bus power injections and line admittance matrix when DC power flow is calculated. Tests on the IEEE 30 bus and 118 bus systems, using either randomly varied bus loading or an IEEE standard load profile, showed that the average error in power flow calculation is reduced from about 5% to less than 1%, an average improvement of 80% in comparison with the traditional DC method. The improved DC method can be very useful when a large number of system power flow calculations under different generation/loading conditions are needed. It can also be used in representing the system constraints in power market programs where empirical knowledge of the system is usually available and accuracy is of great importance.

AB Detection of abnormal supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) data is critically important for safe and secure operation of modern power systems. In this paper, a methodology of abnormal SCADA data detection based on state estimation residuals is presented. Preceded with a brief overview of outlier detection methods and bad SCADA data detection for state estimation, the framework of the proposed methodology is described. Instead of using original SCADA measurements as the bad data sources, the residuals calculated based on the results of the state estimator are used as the input for the outlier detection algorithm. The BACON algorithm is applied to the outlier detection task. The IEEE 118-bus system is used as a test base to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology. The accuracy of the BACON method is compared with that of the 3-sigma method for the simulated SCADA measurements and residuals.

AB In this paper, a new approach to evaluate the uncertainty ranges for the required generation performance envelope, including the balancing capacity, ramping capability and ramp duration is presented. The approach includes three stages: statistical and actual data acquisition, statistical analysis of retrospective information, and prediction of future grid balancing requirements for specified time horizons and confidence intervals. Assessment of the capacity and ramping requirements is performed using a specially developed probabilistic algorithm based on a histogram analysis incorporating all sources of uncertainty and parameters of a continuous (wind forecast and load forecast errors) and discrete (forced generator outages and failures to start up) nature. Preliminary simulation using California Independent System Operator (CAISO) real life data has shown the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach.

AB The current electric power grid is a result of incremental growth over the past 100 years under assumptions that a grid provides reliable and controllable generation of energy cheaply and with limited environmental impact. Moving into the twenty-first century, many of these assumptions will no longer hold; the existing grid is ill-equipped to handle the new requirements that it is being subjected to. This paper presents a novel hybridization algorithm to upgrade the existing electric power network to feasibly achieve future renewable energy generation goals. The algorithm was integrated with state-of-the-art electric power analysis approaches to produce feasible transmission networks to accommodate 20% wind power by 2030 goals.

AB Power consumption and demand continues to grow around the world. As the electric power grid continues to be put under more stress, the conditions of instability are more likely to occur. One cause of such instabilities is intearea oscillations, such as the oscillation that resulted in the August 10, 1996 blackout of the WECC. This paper explores different potential operations of different devices on the power system to improve the damping of these interarea oscillations using two different simulation models.

Programming (LP)
AB The area control error (ACE) determines how much a balancing authority (BA) needs to move its regulating units to meet mandatory control performance standard requirements. Regulation is an expensive resource that could cost several hundred million dollars a year for a BA. The amount of regulation needed in a system is increasing with more intermittent generation resources added to the system. The ACE diversity interchange (ADI) program provides a tool for reducing the regulation requirement by combining ACEs from several participating BAs followed by sharing the total ACE among all participating balancing areas. The effect is achieved as a result of the low statistical correlation between the original ACEs of participating BAs. A rule-based ADI approach has already been put into practice in the US Western Interconnection. The degree of actual ACE sharing is artificially limited because of the unknown redistribution of power flows and possible system congestion (these factors are not monitored in the existing ADI). This paper proposes a two-step linear programming (LP) ADI approach that incorporates congestion constraints. In the first step of the proposed LP ADI, the line transmission limits are enforced by setting up corresponding constraints. In the second step, the business fairness is pursued. Simulation is performed to compare the properties of the proposed LP ADI and the existing rule-based ADI. Favorable features, such as avoiding line limit violations and increasing the degree of possible ACE sharing, are observed for the proposed LP ADI.

AB High-performance Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) requires high fidelity motion measurement, both translational motion for the synthetic aperture and angular motion for antenna pointing. In particular, gyro drift about the vertical (yaw) axis is particularly problematic to keep aligned adequately, especially for tactical-grade instruments. A method has been developed to measure antenna a pointing error accurately from general SAR images, with the error fed back to the motion measurement Kalman filter to correct for gyro drift errors.

AB The detection of liquid or vapor hydrofluoric acid (HF), a toxic industrial chemical, is an important area for sensor research. The approach presented here uses a conjugated silicon polymer specifically designed to react with the fluoride anion of HF, resulting in a change of the polymer conductivity. The conductivity response of polymer based coatings prepared with and without titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) to aqueous HF exposure are compared, as is the response of the silicon polymer composite to HF vapor. Coatings were directly compared to the same concentration of hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric acid, and deionized water. While many chemiresistor-based sensors depend on the physical swelling of the polymer coating in the presence of an analyte, and are therefore reversible, these sensors were designed with a polymeric coating that reacts with the analyte, thereby effecting a permanent change in properties. A permanent change in impedance of 30% in less than 600 sec. with a selectivity of 20: 1 towards fluorine was observed. The lower limit of detection has not been established yet, but an impedance change of 6% occurs when the sensor is exposed to 1 ppm HF. While an impedance change greater than 100% in vapor phase hydrofluoric acid has been shown, the mechanism to explain the enhanced selectivity toward fluorine when TiO(2) is added to the sensor coating formulation is currently unknown.

AB We demonstrate a temperature sensor consisting of a 2-dimensional, Silicon (Si), Photonic Crystal (PC) attached to the facet of a standard single-mode optical fiber. The 2-D PC sensors are fabricated on standard Si wafers, using a single mask and a combination of isotropic and anisotropic etching, and micro-assembled onto the facets of the optical fibers by Si-welding. The temperature of the Si-PC sensor is monitored by measuring its reflectance spectrum in the 1250 nm to 1650 nm wavelength range. The measured reflectivity peak shifts from 100 degrees C to 700 degrees C is 0.1036 nm/degrees C. The observed spectral shift and temperature sensitivity are significantly higher than other high-temperature fiber Bragg grating sensors, and comparable to long-period fiber gratings sensors. The high sensitivity along with the compactness and robustness gives these sensors the strong potential for use in harsh environments.

A prototype sensor has been fabricated on alumina substrates using screen printing. The sensor consists of an RLC resonant circuit where the oxygen-sensitive ZnO resistor varies the quality factor. Changes in the quality factor are measured using an admittance bridge coupled to the RLC circuit by a probe coil. We report here on optimization of the sensor design and we contrast the measured and predicted performance of the prototype sensor.

AB This paper presents an integrated microfluidic system for selectively interrogating parallel biosensors at programmed time intervals. Specifically, the microfluidic system is used for delivering a volume of sample from a single source to a surface-based arrayed biosensor. In this case the biosensors were an array of electrochemical electrodes modified with sample specific capture probes. In addition, the sample was required to be captured, stored and removed for additional laboratory analysis. This was accomplished by a plastic laminate stack in which each thin laminate was patterned by CO2 laser ablation to form microchannels and two novel valves. The first valve was a normally closed type opened by heat via an electrically resistive wire. The second valve was a check type integrated into a removable storage chamber. This setup allows for remote and leave-behind sensing applications and also containment of sensed sample for further laboratory analysis.

ID MASS SENSITIVITY; FINITE-ELEMENT; LIQUID-MEDIA; MICROBALANCE
AB The mass sensitivity (>1 micrograms) of current commercial analytical instruments, such as thermal gravimetric analyzers, severely limits their utility for measurement of valuable but poorly soluble materials such as synthetic proteins or DNA fragments. A quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), based on a transverse shear mode piezoelectric crystal operating at high frequencies, is gaining popularity in chemical and bio-sensing applications due to higher mass sensitivities as compared to the traditional analyzers and lesser sensitivity to vibrations. However, these devices suffer from non-uniformity of sensitivity distribution along the sensor surface thereby limiting their use for the determination of mass. Overcoming this limitation would lead to the development of a robust sensor with improved mass sensitivities and reduced sensitivity to vibrations, as compared to the currently available microbalances. The sensitivity profile can be influenced by a number of factors the electrode design and surface properties of the crystal. In the current work, we develop a finite element (FE) model of the QCM to investigate the mass sensitivity and its radial distribution on the sensor surface for various electrode designs. Such a model will aid in the development of versatile nano-balances with a uniform sensitivity distribution.

AB Nanocone structures were fabricated by a unique etching-passivation process as the substrates for Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS). This novel nanostructured SERS substrate allowed reaching unprecedented detection limits (fM of Rhodamin6G; pM of crude peptides), and supported the detection of subtle changes in peptide probe sequences, such as single amino acid phosphosphorylation or mutation. Thus, surface-conjugated peptides could be used as highly potent biological nano-sensors for sensitive profiling of specific protein-mediated chemical changes on nano-sensing probes. We hope such kinase-enzyme activity screening array device and technology will advance all aspects of Life Sciences, and potentially be applied to environment monitoring.

AB We propose a steepest descent method to compute optimal control parameters for balancing between multiple performance objectives in stateless stochastic scheduling, wherein the scheduling decision is effected by a simple constant-time coin toss operation only. We apply our method to the scheduling of a mobile sensor's coverage time among a set of points of interest (PoIs). The coverage algorithm is guided by a Markov chain wherein the sensor at PoI i decides to go to the next PoI j with transition probability pij. We use steepest descent to compute the transition probabilities for optimal tradeoff between two performance goals concerning the distributions of per-PoI coverage times and exposure times, respectively. We also discuss how other important goals such as energy efficiency and entropy of the coverage schedule can be addressed. For computational efficiency, we show how to optimally adapt the step size in steepest descent to achieve fast convergence. However, we found that the structure of our problem is complex in that there may exist surprisingly many local optima in the solution space, causing basic steepest descent to get stuck easily at a local optimum. To solve the problem, we show how proper incorporation of noise in the search process can get us out of the local optima with high probability. We provide simulation results to verify the accuracy of our analysis, and show that our method can converge to the globally optimal control parameters under different assigned weights to the performance goals and different initial parameters.

AB Stream processing is widely used by today's applications such as financial data analysis and disaster response. In distributed stream processing systems, machine fail-stop events are handled by either active standby or passive standby. However, existing high availability (HA) schemes have not sufficiently addressed the situation when a machine becomes temporarily unavailable due to data rate spikes, intensive analysis or job sharing, which happens frequently but lasts for short time. It is not clear how well active and passive standby fare against such transient unavailability. In this paper, we first critically examine the suitability of active and passive standby against transient unavailability in a real testbed environment. We find that both approaches have advantages and drawbacks, but neither is ideal to provide fast recovery at low overhead as required to handle transient unavailability. Based on the insights gained, we propose a novel hybrid HA method that switches between active and passive standby modes depending on the occurrence of failure events. It presents a desirable tradeoff that is different from existing HA approaches: low overhead during normal conditions and fast recovery upon transient or permanent failure events. We have implemented our hybrid method and compared it with existing HA designs with comprehensive evaluation. The results show that our hybrid method can reduce two-thirds of the recovery time compared to passive standby and 80% message overhead compared to active standby, allowing applications to enjoy uninterrupted processing without paying a high premium.

AB InxGa1-xSb channel materials have the highest hole and electron mobility among all III-V semiconductors, high conduction and valence band offsets (CBO/VBO) with lattice matched AlxIn1-xSb for heterostructure MOSFET design [1] and allow low thermal budget MOSFET fabrication (Figure 1). While buried channel HEMT-like devices with excellent electron and hole transport [3-5] have been demonstrated, realization of an Sb-channel MOSFET has remained elusive due to the highly reactive nature of the Sb-surface (Figure 2). In this paper we overcome these challenges (Figure 1) and fabricate an InxGa1-xSb pMOSFET with high hole mobility (mu(h)) : a bottleneck for III-V complimentary logic. Synchrotron Radiation Photoemission Spectroscopy (SRPES) is used to aid the development of ALD Al2O3 on GaSb with a mid bandgap Dit of 3x10(11)/cm(2)eV(-1). A p(+)/n diode with ideality factor of 1.4 and I-ON/I-OFF > 5x10(4) is developed. pMOSFETs with various channel configurations to optimize the hole transport are fabricated using a sub 350 degrees C gate-first process. Surface (buried) channel pMOSFETs with peak mu(h) of 620 (910) cm(2)/Vs and having more than 50 (100) % higher mobility than Germanium over the entire sheet charge (N-s) range are demonstrated and analyzed.

AB This paper discusses a new approach to making hybrid power electronic circuits by combining a low-temperature (850 degrees C to 950 degrees C) co-fired ceramic (LTCC) substrate, planar LTCC ferrite transformers/inductors and integrated passive components into a multilayer monolithic package using a ferrite-based LTCC material system. A ferrite tape functions as the base material for this LTCC system. The material system includes physically and chemically compatible dielectric paste, dielectric tape and conductor materials which can be co-fired with the base ferrite LTCC tape to create sintered devices with excellent magnetic coupling, high permeability (similar to 400), high resistivity (> 10(12) Omega.cm) and good saturation (similar to 0.3 T). The co-fired ferrite and dielectric materials can be used as a substrate for attaching or housing semiconductor components and other discrete devices that are part of the power electronics system. Furthermore, the ability to co-fire the ferrite with dielectric and conductor materials allows for the incorporation of embedded passives in the multilayer structure to create hybrid power electronic circuits. Overall this thick film material set offers a unique approach to making hybrid power electronics and could potentially allow a size reduction for many commercial dc-dc converter and other power electronic circuits.

AB Assemblies produced by 3D Integration, whether fabricated at die or wafer level, involve a large number of post fab processing steps. Performing the prove-in of these operations on high value product has many limitations. This work uses simple surrogate process characterization vehicles, which workaround limitations of cost, timeliness of piecparts, ability to consider multiple processing options, and insufficient volumes for adequately exercising flows to collect specific process data for characterization.
The test structures easily adapt to specific product in terms of die dimensions, aspect ratios, pitch and number of interconnects, and etc. This results in good fidelity in exercising product-specific processing. The discussed Cyclops vehicle implements a mirrored layout suitable for stacking to itself by wafer-to-wafer, die-to-wafer, or die-to-die. A standardized 2x10 pad test interface allows characterization of any of the integration methods with a single simple setup. This design offers the utility of comparison study of the various methods all using the same basis.

ID DAMAGE
AB There is a significant need for next-generation, high-performance power electronic packages and systems with wide band gap devices that operate at high temperatures in automotive and electric grid applications. Sn-3.5Ag solder is a candidate for use in such packages with potential operating temperatures up to 200 degrees C. However, there is a need to understand thermal cycling reliability of Sn-3.5Ag solders. The results of a study on the damage evolution occurring in large area Sn-3.5Ag solder joints between silicon dies and Direct Bonded Copper (DBC) substrates subject to thermal cycling between 200 degrees C and 5 degrees C is presented in this paper. Damage accumulation was followed using high resolution X-ray radiography techniques, and nonlinear finite element models were developed based on the mechanical property data available in literature to understand the relationship between the stress state within the solder joint and the damage occurring under thermal cycling conditions. It was observed that regions of damage observed in the experiments do not correspond to the finite element predictions of the location of regions of maximum plastic work.

AB 3D Integration approaches exist for wafer-to-wafer, die-to-wafer, and die-to-die assembly, each with distinct merits. Creation of "seamless" wafer scale focal plane arrays on the order of 6-8" in diameter drives very demanding yield requirements and understanding. This work established a Monte Carlo model of our exploratory architecture in order to assess the trades of the various assembly methods. The model results suggested an optimum die size, number of die stacks per assembly, number of layers per stack, and quantified the value of sorting for optimizing the assembly process.

AB The domain name system (DNS) is critical to Internet functionality. The availability of a domain name refers to its ability to be resolved correctly. We develop a model for server dependencies that is used as a basis for measuring availability. We introduce the minimum number of servers queried (MSQ) and redundancy as availability metrics and show how common DNS misconfigurations impact the availability of domain names. We apply the availability model to domain names from production DNS and observe that 6.7% of names exhibit sub-optimal MSQ, and 14% experience false redundancy. The MSQ and redundancy values can be optimized by proper maintenance of delegation records for zones.

AB We address the following questions. Is there link homophily in the application layer traffic? If so, can it be used to accurately classify traffic in network trace data without relying on payloads or properties at the flow level? Our research shows that the answers to both of these questions are affirmative in real network trace data. Specifically, we define link homophily to be the tendency for flows with common IP hosts to have the same application (P2P, Web, etc.) compared to randomly selected flows. The presence of link homophily in trace data provides us with statistical dependencies between flows that share common IP hosts. We utilize these dependencies to classify application layer traffic without relying on payloads or properties at the flow level. In particular, we introduce a new statistical relational learning algorithm, called Neighboring Link Classifier with Relaxation Labeling (NLC+RL). Our algorithm has no training phase and does not require features to be constructed. All that it needs to start the classification process is traffic information on a small portion of the initial flows, which we refer to as seeds. In all our traces, NLC+RL achieves above 90% accuracy with less than 5% seed size; it is robust to errors in the seeds and various seed-selection biases; and it is able to accurately classify challenging traffic such as P2P with over 90% Precision and Recall.

AB While many attacks are distributed across botnets, investigators and network operators have recently targeted malicious networks through high profile autonomous system (AS) de-peerings and network shut-downs. In this paper, we explore whether some ASes indeed are safe havens for malicious activity. We look for ISPs and ASes that exhibit disproportionately high malicious behavior using 12 popular blacklists. We find that some ASes have over 80% of their routable IP address space blacklisted and others account for large fractions of blacklisted IPs. Overall, we conclude that examining malicious activity at the AS granularity can unearth networks with lax security or those that harbor cybercrime.

AB In a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), the Access Point (AP) selection of a client heavily influences the performance of its own and others. Through theoretical analysis, we reveal that previously proposed association protocols are not effective in maximizing the minimal throughput among all clients. Accordingly, we propose an online AP association strategy that not only achieves a minimal throughput (among all clients) that is provably close to the optimum, but also works effectively in practice with a reasonable computational overhead. The association protocol applying this strategy is implemented on the commercial hardware and compatible with legacy APs without any modification. We demonstrate its feasibility and performance through real experiments.

AB There is an increasing demand both by legislation and the public for a more secured, reliable and efficient power system using dispatchable and non-dispatchable renewable resources. However, the existing design and operational practice of the electrical power grid does not lend itself easily to the incorporation of non-dispatchable renewable energy resources. Distributive Electrical Energy Storage (DESS) is a key to the development and future of all non-dispatchable renewable energy resources in the electrical power grid. This paper provides an overview, discusses the state-of-the-art status and will introduce how DESS can be used to incorporate non-dispatchable renewable resources into the power grid and also provide additional benefits to the power system.

State space analysis is first carried out to achieve the relationship between the voltage unbalance, load conditions and the control duty cycle. With the implementation of an optimum zero-sequence component, a simplified average model for the dc output stage with unbalanced load is obtained. Based on the developed model, a new control approach and the criteria of control parameter selection are presented. The simulation and experiment results validate the proposed control scheme.

AB Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) potentially have the capability to fulfill the energy storage needs of the electric grid by supplying ancillary services such as reactive power compensation, voltage regulation, and peak shaving. However, in order to allow bidirectional power transfer, the PHEV battery charger should be designed to manage such capability. While many different battery chargers have been available since the inception of the first electric vehicles (EVs), on-board, conductive chargers with bidirectional power transfer capability have recently drawn attention due to their inherent advantages in charging accessibility, ease of use, and efficiency. In this paper, a reactive power compensation case study using just the inverter dc-link capacitor is evaluated when a PHEV battery is under charging operation. Finally, the impact of providing these services on the batteries is also explained.

AB The use of an onboard electrical propulsion system in a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) to provide plug-in charging, mobile power generation, and vehicle-to-grid support capabilities is discussed. Pulse width modulation (PWM) control methods are examined for operating such a plug-in HEV in mobile power generation and vehicle-to-grid support applications to assess their impacts on the power conversion efficiency. A novel unipolar/interleaved PWM switching scheme is proposed, which can significantly reduce the switching losses and substantially increase the efficiency. A dual inverter drive prototype was assembled to test the PWM control schemes and test results are included to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

AB Common mode (CM) choke saturation is a practical problem in common-mode filter applications. It's generally believed that the leakage inductance of common-mode chokes makes the core saturated. This paper analyzes two new mechanisms for common-mode choke saturation due to common-mode voltage, and these mechanisms are verified in experiment. Common-mode choke saturation is particularly important for motor drive systems, which have a high common-mode voltage and comparably higher stray grounding capacitance. A model is established to describe the relationship between the common-mode voltage and the volume of the common-mode magnetic components. According to the analysis, LISNs (line impedance stabilization networks) play an important role in the design of CM magnetic components.

AB It is well known that there exist second-order harmonic current and corresponding ripple voltage on dc bus for single phase PWM rectifiers. The low frequency harmonic current is normally filtered using a bulk capacitor in the bus which results in low power density. This paper proposed an active ripple energy storage method that can effectively reduce the energy storage capacitance. The feed-forward control method and design considerations are provided.

AB Ethane is a prominent contributor to the spectrum of Titan, particularly in the region of the v(9) band at 12 mu m. A multispectrum nonlinear least squares fitting program was applied to laboratory spectra of ethane to measure accurate positions, absolute intensities, N-2- and self-broadened half-width coefficients and their temperature dependences for a large number transitions. These measurements include several (p)Q and (r)Q sub-bands (and other sub-bands such as P-p, R-r) in the v(9) fundamental band of (C2H6)-C-12 centered near 822 cm(-1). Positions and intensities were measured for 3771 transitions. N-2- and self-broadened half-width coefficients were determined for over 1700 transitions while temperature dependence exponents were retrieved for over 1350 of those transitions. Of these, many measurements (mostly line positions and intensities) belong to the (C2H6)-C-12 v(9)+v(4)-v(4) and the v(9)+2v(4)-2v(4) hot bands, (CCH6)-C-13-C-12 v(9) band and unidentified transitions. Forty-three high resolution (0.0016-0.005 cm(-1)) infrared laboratory absorption spectra recorded at temperatures between similar to 150 and 298 K were fitted simultaneously to retrieve these parameters.

AB Medium-duty vehicles are used in a broad array of fleet applications, including parcel delivery. These vehicles are excellent candidates for electric drive applications due to their transient-intensive duty cycles, operation in densely populated areas, and relatively high fuel consumption and emissions. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) conducted a robust assessment of parcel delivery routes and completed a model-based techno-economic analysis of hybrid electric vehicle (HEY) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) configurations. First, NREL characterized parcel delivery vehicle usage patterns, most notably daily distance driven and drive-cycle intensity. Second, drive-cycle analysis results framed the selection of drive cycles used to test a parcel delivery HEV on a chassis dynamometer. Next, measured fuel consumption results were used to validate simulated fuel consumption values derived from a dynamic model of the parcel delivery vehicle. Finally, NREL swept a matrix of 120 component size, usage, and cost combinations to assess impacts on fuel consumption and vehicle cost. The results illustrated the dependency of component sizing on drive-cycle intensity and daily distance driven and may allow parcel delivery fleets to match the most appropriate electric drive vehicle (EDV) to their fleet usage profile.

AB Electrification of the transportation sector, which accounts for 70% of U.S. petroleum consumption, offers the opportunity to significantly reduce petroleum consumption. The transition to electricity as a transportation fuel will create a new load for electricity generation. In support of a recent U.S. Department of Energy-funded activity that analyzed a future generation scenario with high renewable energy technology contributions, a set of regional hourly load profiles for electrified vehicles was developed for the 2010 to 2050 timeframe. These load profiles with their underlying assumptions will be presented in this paper. The transportation electrical energy was determined using regional population forecast data, historical vehicle per capita data, and market penetration growth functions to determine the number of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) in each analysis region. Market saturation scenarios of 30% of sales and 50% of sales of PEVs consuming on average similar to 6 kWh per day were considered. Results were generated for 3109 counties and were consolidated to 134 Power Control Areas (PCA) for use in the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's (NREL's) regional generation planning analysis tool, ReEDS. PEV aggregate load profiles from previous work were combined with vehicle population data to generate hourly loads on a regional basis. A transition from consumer controlled charging toward utility-controlled charging was assumed such that by 2050 approximately 45% of the transportation energy demands could be delivered across four daily time slices under optimal control from the utility's perspective. No other literature has addressed the potential flexibility in energy delivery to electric vehicles in connection with a regional power generation study. This electrified transportation analysis resulted in an estimate for both the flexible load and fixed load shapes on a regional basis that may evolve under two PEV market penetration scenarios.

AB Over the past couple of years, several advanced powertrain technologies, including electric vehicles (EVs), hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), hybrid hydraulic vehicles (HHVs), and alternative-fuel vehicles, have been implemented in medium-and heavy-duty applications. In this study, several advanced powertrain configurations were selected and implemented on different vehicle applications (e.g., parcel and delivery, bus, line haul) over different time frames and were then modeled in PSAT (Powertrain Systems Analysis Toolkit), Argonne National Laboratory's vehicle modeling and simulation tool. The study was sponsored by the U.S. National Academy of Science to support the "Technologies and Approaches to Reducing the Fuel Consumption of Medium-and Heavy-Duty Vehicles" study. This paper analyses the energy balances of different applications for several vehicle speeds. Specific technologies are then selected to minimize the largest losses. Finally, their fuel consumption benefit is assessed on several drive cycles.

AB Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) is a proven pathway, especially in automotive industry, to improve performance by resolving relevant physics in complex systems; shorten product development design cycle and thus reduce cost; provide an efficient manner for evaluating parameters for robust designs. Most battery CAE models could be enhanced. Academic model's include relevant physics details, but neglect engineering complexities. Industry models include relevant macroscopic geometry and system conditions, but use too much simplification in fundamental physics. Most of the Battery CAE tools for in-house use are custom model codes and require expert-users. There is a need to make these battery modeling and design tools more accessible to end users such as battery developers, pack integrators, and vehicle makers. Developing integrated and physics-based battery CAE tools could reduce process of design, build, test, break, re-design, re-build, re-test, etc. and bring the cost down. NREL has been involved in developing various models to predict the thermal and electrochemical performance of large format cells. We have also used commercials 3 dimensional fmite-element analysis (FEA) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to study the thermal issues of battery packs. These NREL cell and pack design tools could be integrated for supporting the industry to accelerating the design of batteries. In this paper, we will provide the approach and results for our modeling.

AB The widespread introduction of electrically-propelled vehicles is currently part of many political strategies and introduction plans. These new vehicles, ranging from limited (mild) hybrid to plug-in hybrid to fully-battery powered, will rely on a new class of advanced storage batteries, such as those based on lithium, to meet different technical and economical targets. The testing of these batteries to determine the performance and life in the various applications is a time-consuming and costly process that is not yet well developed. There are many examples of parallel testing activities that are poorly coordinated, for example, those in Europe, Japan and the US. These costs and efforts may be better leveraged through international collaboration, such as that possible within the framework of the International Energy Agency. Here, a new effort is under development that will establish standardized, accelerated testing procedures and will allow battery testing organizations to cooperate in the analysis of the resulting data. This paper reviews the present state-of-the-art in accelerated life testing in Europe, Japan and the US. The existing test procedures will be collected, compared and analyzed with the goal of international collaboration. EVS25 Copyright.

AB During the past couple of years, numerous powertrain configurations for hybrid electric vehicles have been introduced into the market-place. The current dominant architecture is the power-split configuration with the input split (one-mode) from Toyota and Ford. General Motors recently introduced a two-mode power-split configuration for applications in sport utility vehicles. Also, several car manufacturers have obtained patents for various additional options. The objective of this paper is to assess the benefits to fuel consumption as a result of added powertrain complexity (i.e., one-, two-, three-, and four-mode power splits), as demonstrated through several drive cycles. By using validated powertrain models and vehicle controls for the input and two-mode systems, the three-mode and four-mode vehicles were developed in Argonne's Autonomie - a forward-looking powertrain simulation toolkit with dynamic plant models. This paper provides a detailed review of the benefits and drawbacks of each option.

AB The lack of refueling stations is one of the biggest barriers to the transition to hydrogen-powered transportation. Stationary fuel cells, when deployed and operated to co-generate heat, hydrogen and power, could serve as distributed sources of hydrogen for motor vehicles. This study uses a hydrogen transition market simulation model to analyze the potential for stationary fuel cells to augment hydrogen availability during the early stage of a hydrogen transition. The analysis contributes to understanding potential synergies between stationary and mobile hydrogen fuel cell applications.

AB A recent experiment was performed at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (UK) to study fast electron propagation in cylindrically compressed targets, a subject of interest for fast ignition. This experiment was performed in the framework of the experimental road map of the Hiper project (the European High Power laser Energy Research facility Project). In this experiment, protons accelerated by a pecosecond laser pulse have been used to radiograph a 220 mu m-diameter, 20 mu m-wall cylinder filled with 0.1 g/cc foam, imploded with similar to 200 J of green laser light in 4 symmetrically incident beams of pulse length 1 ns. Point projection proton backlighting was used to measure the compression degree as well as the stagnation time. Results were compared to those from hard X-ray radiography. Finally, Monte Carlo simulations of proton propagation in the cold and in the compressed targets allowed a detailed comparison with 2D numerical hydro simulations

AB In this work we report on a recent experiment where an energetic, well-collimated electron beam has been observed in the laser direction following the short pulse (600 fs) high-intensity laser interaction with ultra-thin solid foils. These results are in contrast to the typical low-energy divergent electrons accompanying ions in the target normal direction usually seen in solid targets. We observe the foils being preheated and expanded by ASE prior to the main pulse which makes them transparent for the laser. The experimental evidence as well as 2D particle-in-cell simulations suggest the excitation of a wakefield that can accelerate electrons to energies of tens of MeV.

ID LOCK-IN THERMOGRAPHY; SOLAR-CELLS
AB Several camera imaging techniques have been applied to the characterization of Cu(In, Ga)Se-2 (CIGS) solar cells having a range of efficiencies. Photoluminescence (PL) imaging shows brightness variations after the deposition of the CIGS layer that persist through CdS deposition and subsequent processing steps to finish the devices. PL and electroluminescence imaging on finished cells show a correlation to the devices' corresponding efficiency and open-circuit voltage (V-OC), and dark defect-related spots correspond to bright spots on images from illuminated lock-in thermography (LIT) and forward-bias dark LIT. These image-detected defect areas are weak diodes and shunts. Imaging provides locations of defects detrimental to solar cell performance. Some of these defects are analyzed in more detail by scanning electron microscopy techniques using top and cross-sectional views.

AB The Photovoltaic (PV) Technology Incubator project facilitates a company's transition from developing a PV module or cell prototype to pilot and full-scale manufacturing. The PV Technology Incubator project receives funds from the U. S. Department of Energy (DOE), through the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). The PV Incubator project targets small businesses that have demonstrated a proof-ofconcept/ process in a lab, but still need to overcome significant barriers before they can achieve commercialization. After 18 months of funding, a successful project is expected to have a commercially viable product and be capable of approximately 2-3 MW/year pilot production. It is anticipated that these companies will begin entry into the market by 2011.

ID AMORPHOUS-SILICON; HYDROGEN
AB The creation efficiency of Staebler_Wronski (SW) defects, their thermal stability, and their effect on degradation of a-Si:H solar cells is discussed with emphasis on hydrogen bonding configurations. In device-quality a-Si: H films prepared by different methods, creation efficiency of SW defects is remarkably similar. The increased stability against SW degradation in hydrogen-diluted material is mainly due to low thermal stability of SW defects. The SW defect creation is, however, reduced in films with lower hydrogen content prepared by annealing to elevated temperatures. While defect thermal stability strongly affects electron mobility-lifetime product in a-Si: H films, it has little effect on extent of the degradation in cells. This suggests that carrier capture coefficient into defects are governed by their charge state. Thermal stability of SW defects is likely governed by numerous, pre-existing, paired hydrogen configurations nearby the defects that serve as an annealing source for the defects, as suggested by tritiated a-Si:H experiments

AB Optics for high concentration photovoltaics often delivers a non-uniform irradiance to the cell. This can be a problem for tunnel-junction interconnected (TJIC) IIIV multijunction solar cells if the resulting local photocurrent exceeds the peak tunneling current density. Current spreading in the vicinity of the tunnel junction can mitigate this effect. We use commercial software to simulate current spreading in a simple GaInP/GaInAs cell with a thin GaAs TJIC. We show that for the narrow light beams, the current spreading is fit reasonably well by a Lorentzian with a spreading length on the order of 10 mu m. Below some critical irradiance that depends on the width of the light beam, current spreading increases with the local irradiance. At the critical irradiance where the tunnel diode switches to the thermal current state, the current spreading abruptly decreases. Above the critical irradiance the current spreading continues to decrease with increasing irradiance. The effects of other device parameters on current spreading are discussed.

AB The presence of local junction breakdown in silicon solar cells can be examined by electroluminescence (EL) imaging under reverse bias. This luminescence-extending from the near infrared into the visible spectrum-is primarily consistent with bremsstrahlung radiation resulting from the acceleration of both electrons and holes across the breakdown site. In this contribution, we introduce the application of near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) to resolve the physics of the local junction breakdown in solar cells at the micro - and nano-scale.
The superior resolution of NSOM reveals aspects of the local junction breakdown not seen before, providing a better description of the processes involved in the junction breakdown. Assuming that this luminescence is primarily bremsstrahlung, the photon energy distribution of the emission spectrum can be used as a local measurement of the local field at breakdown. Thus, not only does NSOM provide the precise location where the breakdown initiates, but the distribution of the field at breakdown is also accessible within the micron scale. Because of the practical significance of junction breakdown at low reverse bias in upgraded metallurgical (UMG) multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si) solar cells, this contribution is dedicated to the application of NSOM spectrum imaging to different breakdown mechanisms found in these solar cells.

AB The behavior of charge trapping and detrapping by deep levels depends on both temperature and the rate at which the measurement (e. g., admittance spectroscopy) is conducted. We report recent advances in admittance spectroscopy based on the temperature-rate duality: the temperature derivative technique, and the 2D Arrhenius plot method. The first technique-temperature derivative admittance spectroscopy-can be used to directly determine the defect density of states just as the existing frequency derivative method, but it possesses certain key advantages. Within practical experimental limits, it allows a wider observation window of defect energies, avoiding possible detection failure, and facilitating simultaneous observation of multiple defects. For defect energies of most interest, it also yields more Arrhenius plot data points and therefore enables more accurate parameter extraction. In practice, the temperature derivative method can avoid system noise at low frequency and is more immune to baseline effects due to parasitic circuit effects. The second technique-the 2D Arrhenius plot method-can accurately and unambiguously solve the activation energy E-a, the pre-exponential factor v(0), and their temperature dependence, especially if the trapping/detrapping process is non-Arrhenius. The 2D Arrhenius plot method measures E-a and v(0) at any temperature from matching the first and second moments of the data calculated with respect to temperature and rate in the 2D temperature-rate plane. Defects in GaAsN and Cu(In, Ga)Se-2 solar cells are used as case studies for the above techniques. The latter exhibits a temperature-dependent behavior of E-a and V-0 obeying the Meyer-Neldel's rule.

ID PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULES
AB Accelerated lifetime testing of five crystalline silicon module designs was carried out according to the Terrestrial Photovoltaic Module Accelerated Test-to-Failure Protocol. This protocol compares the reliability of various module constructions on a quantitative basis. The modules under test are subdivided into three accelerated lifetime testing paths: 85 degrees C/85% relative humidity with system bias, thermal cycling between -40 degrees C and 85 degrees C, and a path that alternates between damp heat and thermal cycling. The most severe stressor is damp heat with system bias applied to simulate the voltages that modules experience when connected in an array. Positive 600 V applied to the active layer with respect to the grounded module frame accelerates corrosion of the silver grid fingers and degrades the silicon nitride antireflective coating on the cells. Dark I-V curve fitting indicates increased series resistance and saturation current around the maximum power point; however, an improvement in junction recombination characteristics is obtained. Severe shunt paths and cell-metallization interface failures are seen developing in the silicon cells as determined by electroluminescence, thermal imaging, and I-V curves in the case of negative 600 V bias applied to the active layer. Ability to withstand electrolytic corrosion, moisture ingress, and ion drift under system voltage bias are differentiated according to module design. The results are discussed in light of relevance to field failures.

AB Because of the sensitivity of some photovoltaic devices to moisture-induced corrosion, they are packaged using impermeable front-and back-sheets along with an edge seal to prevent moisture ingress. Evaluation of edge seal materials can be difficult because of the low permeation rates involved and/or non-Fickian behavior. Here, using a Ca film deposited on a glass substrate, we demonstrate the evaluation of edge seal materials in a manner that effectively duplicates their use in a photovoltaic application and compare the results with standard methods for measuring water vapor transport. We demonstrate how moisture permeation data from polymer films can be used to estimate moisture ingress rates and compare the results of these two methods. Encapsulant materials were also evaluated for comparison and to highlight the need for edge seals. Of the materials studied, desiccant filled polyisobutylene materials demonstrate by far the best potential to keep moisture out for a 20 to 30 y lifetime.

AB Interest in renewable energy has motivated the implementation of new polymeric materials in photovoltaic modules. Some of these are non-cross-linked thermoplastics, in which there is a potential for new behaviors to occur, including phase transformation and visco-elastic flow. Differential scanning calorimetry and rheometry data were obtained and then combined with existing site-specific time-temperature information in a theoretical analysis to estimate the displacement expected to occur during module service life. The analysis identified that, depending on the installation location, module configuration and/or mounting configuration, some of the thermoplastics are expected to undergo unacceptable physical displacement. While the examples here focus on encapsulation materials, the concerns apply equally to the frame, junction-box, and mounting-adhesive technologies.

AB Sandia National Laboratories (Sandia) and SunPower Corporation (SunPower) have completed design and deployment of an autonomous irradiance monitoring system based on wireless mesh communications and a battery operated data acquisition system. The Lanai High-Density Irradiance Sensor Network is comprised of 24 LI-COR (R) irradiance sensors (silicon pyranometers) polled by 19 RF Radios. The system was implemented with commercially available hardware and custom developed LabVIEW applications. The network of solar irradiance sensors was installed in January 2010 around the periphery and within the 1.2 MW ac La Ola PV plant on the island of Lanai, Hawaii. Data acquired at 1 second intervals is transmitted over wireless links to be time stamped and recorded on SunPower data servers at the site for later analysis. The intent is to study power and solar resource data sets to correlate the movement of cloud shadows across the PV array and its effect on power output of the PV plant. The irradiance data sets recorded will be used to study the shape, size and velocity of cloud shadows. This data, along with time-correlated PV array output data, will support the development and validation of a PV performance model that can predict the short-term output characteristics (ramp rates) of PV systems of different sizes and designs. This analysis could also be used by the La Ola system operator to predict power ramp events and support the function of the future battery system. This experience could be used to validate short-term output forecasting methodologies.

AB Superstrate and substrate CdS/CdTe devices have been fabricated with a ZnTe:Cu contact. The main variable probed is the effect of Cu diffusion from the ZnTe:Cu contact interface layer. A combination of electrical and composition analysis indicates that, for the substrate devices produced for this study, the amount of Cu in the CdTe layer is too high for optimum device operation. Admittance spectroscopy analysis suggests that superstrate devices with excessive Cu have similar defect functionality as the substrate devices with a ZnTe:Cu contact interface. Temperature-dependant, current-voltage analysis further suggests that it may be possible to ascribe subtle differences in I-V rollover to either a back-contact barrier or an artifact of Cu in the CdS.

AB In this paper, we present our work on devices fabricated using CdTe films deposited by close-spaced sublimation using substrate temperatures in the range of 450 to 620 C. We studied devices prepared on Saint-Gobain soda lime SGG Diamant and Corning 7059 borosilicate glass substrates. We used four types of contact: SnO2:F, ITO, CTO, and Saint-Gobain AZO with and without high-resistivity buffer layers. We used a variety of buffer layers: undoped SnO2, zinc tin oxide (ZTO), and proprietary Saint-Gobain buffer layers. A buffer layer is crucial for devices using CTO and AZO as the front contact. For AZO layers developed by Saint-Gobain, we achieved 9% efficiency without a buffer layer and over 12% efficiency using buffer layers when CdTe films are deposited below 500 degrees C. We used standard current density-voltage and quantum efficiency analysis to determine the device parameters.

AB Nanostructures of semiconductor materials exhibit quantization effects when the electronic particles of these materials are confined by potential barriers to small regions of space. The confinement can be in one dimension (producing quantum films, also termed quantum wells in the early 1980s as the first examples of quantization in nanoscale materials, in two dimensions (producing quantum wires or rods), or in three dimensions (producing quantum dots (QDs))(1). Some authors refer to these three regimes as 0D, 1D, or 2D, respectively, although these terms are not as precise. Nanostructures of other classes of materials, such as metals and organic materials, are also possible. Here, we will focus on semiconductor nanostructures and their potential applications to photovoltaics (PV). Nanostructures of crystalline materials are also referred to as nanocrystals; and this term includes a variety of shapes with the three types of spatial confinement, including spheres, cubes, rods, wires, tubes, tetrapods, ribbons, disks, and platelets.(1) The first six shapes are being intensively studied for PV applications.

AB New shade mitigation technologies are available claiming improved performance under shaded conditions. A typical multi-string photovoltaic (PV) system was operated under partial shading conditions with and without these DC-DC converters. Power loss was attributed to low irradiance on shaded modules, current mismatch within shaded PV strings, and voltage mismatch between parallel strings. Indirect loss from voltage mismatch contributed up to 40% of the total power loss from shading. A representative residential solar installation was evaluated for potential benefit from DC-DC equipment. Detailed shading site survey information was collected and used to modify a PV production model. Using various assumptions on the severity of shade in this PV model, the application of DC-DC converters improved annual modeled power production by 5%-10% and recovered 24%-48% of the power lost due to shading.

AB This paper provides an overview of the activities of and progress made in the US DOE Solar Energy Grid Integration Systems (SEGIS) program. The work has now progressed from the "Conceptual Designs and Market Analysis" Stage 1 through the "Prototype Development" Stage 2. Twelve contractors completed the Stage 1 conceptual designs and market analysis. Best value competition resulted follow on work with control methodologies and hardware prototypes developed and completed by five contractors. The prototypes span system sizes from micro-inverters (200W) to commercial sizes through 100kW. Modularity of the designs enables larger applications. This SEGIS R&D is opening pathways for connecting PV systems to emerging intelligent utility grids and micro-grids. In addition to new grid-interconnection capabilities and "value added" features, the new hardware designs result in smaller, less material-intensive, and higher reliability products. The solutions and "value added" enabled by SEGIS systems will help drive the "advanced integrated system" concepts and "smart grid" evolutionary processes forward in a faster and more focused manner.[1,2,3]

AB High-penetration photovoltaic (PV) system deployment is becoming a reality in several regions of the United States and the trend toward high penetration levels will continue to rise due to decreasing PV system costs in concert with increasing electric utility rates and societal deliberations. New standards and codes for high-penetration PV deployment must be developed, while some existing standards and codes will need to be revised to accommodate increasing levels of PV deployment.
According to a recent industry report, cumulative grid-tied PV capacity in the U. S. grew to 792 MW by the end of year 2008, with a growth rate of 81% for new grid-tied PV installations in 2008 over 2007 and 53% in 2007 over 2006 [1]. These rapid growth rates are expected to continue and will be further spurred by the President's energy plan to double renewable capacity in the next three years to help the U. S. concurrently meet its economic, energy security, and environmental challenges.
On May 20, 2010, in Denver, Colorado, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, in conjunction with the U. S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), held a workshop to examine the key technical issues and barriers associated with high PV penetration levels. Addressing these standards and codes was a major finding of the High Penetration of PV Systems into the Distribution Grid Workshop held in Ontario, California, in February 2009 [2].

AB We report on studies related to the synthesis of thin-film Cu2ZnSnS4 via sulfurization of metal-precursor thin films. Combinatorially graded thin-film Cu-Zn-Sn library samples spanning various regions of the ternary Cu-Zn-Sn phase diagram were deposited at temperatures below 375 K and subsequently sulfurized in a high-vacuum system equipped with a sulfur valved-cracking source at temperatures from 600 K to 675 K. Comparisons of x-ray fluorescence and x-ray diffraction data from pre- and post-sulfurization films have revealed correlations between processing conditions, film composition, and the crystalline phases present. We have also performed cathodoluminescence and photoluminescence measurements and identified emission features consistent with the formation of the Cu2ZnSnS4.

AB Transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) with qualitatively better resistance to humidity than ZnO, the traditional Cu(In, Ga)Se-2 (CIGS) TCO, are needed to reduce the water-induced degradation of CIGS photovoltaics (PV). Amorphous In-Zn-O (a-IZO) is found both to act as a water vapor transport barrier and to be essentially inert in damp heat testing at 85 C, 85% RH (85/85). In particular, no significant reduction in conductivity or transparency was observed after 40 days at 85/85. In initial PV application testing, a-IZO-finished CIGS solar cells have demonstrated 16.4% efficiency, essentially equal to equivalent CIGS cells finished with Al-doped ZnO.

AB In this study, we use three common types of back contacts to CdTe-a ZnTe:Cu back-contact interface layer, a Cu/Au bilayer, and HgTe:Cu-doped graphite paste-to enable us to gain greater understanding of how back-contact processing affects the entire CdTe/CdS device. Current density-voltage (J-V) and quantum efficiency (QE) measurements are used to examine device performance and carrier collection. Variations in the CdTe net acceptor density are examined using capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements. Temperature-dependent current density-voltage (JVT) characterization is used to investigate the back-contact barrier height. These methods enhance our understanding of contacts to CdTe and the effects of these contacts on CdTe photovoltaic devices.

ID ZNO/AG/ZNO MULTILAYER FILMS
AB NREL has leveraged its expertise in multifunctional thin-film technologies to develop enabling and inexpensive transparent conductive coatings for energy applications (Figure 1). The design of these films provides an unique complement of performance characteristics including enhanced durability, flexibility, and impermeable and self-healing barriers to environmental contaminants (e. g., water and oxygen). This is especially needed for environmentally sensitive thin-film and organic photovoltaic technologies. In general, the majority of transparent conducting films used in industry today involves 0.5 to 2 micrometers of relatively expensive indium tin oxide (ITO) and/or doped zinc oxide coatings that have 60%-80% transmission in the visible region and resistances from 10 to 500 ohms/sq. However, to reduce materials/processing costs and maintain a high level of conductivity/transparency while enhancing barrier and durability performance, we have developed nanoscale film composites of ultra-thin TCOs (focusing on lower-cost materials that will include doped ZnO) and atomic layer-deposited materials. These composite structures will be a disruptive technology providing the transparency, conductivity, structural integrity (adhesion and fracture toughness), and impermeability needed for the most demanding applications, with processing that is scalable and adaptable for inexpensive, low-temperature manufacturing. Specifically, NREL has demonstrated transparent conducting films with the potential to reduce water/oxygen vapor transport rates by more than five orders of magnitude compared to typical organic materials. In addition, these films have resistances of similar to 5 ohms/sq. and transmissions over 90%. These transparent conducting barrier films also have significantly enhanced cyclic loading durability and strain tolerance. Finally, despite these substantial improvements, NREL's transparent conducting barrier layers can be integrated with PV devices for two orders of magnitude less cost than ITO. NREL's ultimate goal is to improve the technology and provide water vapor transport rates (WVTRs) lower than 10(-6) g/m(2)-day-the barrier protection needed to enable organic, some thin-film, and 3rd generation photovoltaics.

AB Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) are realizing power conversion efficiencies that are of interest for commercial production. Consequently, understanding device lifetime and mitigating degradation pathways have become vital to the success of a new industry. Historically, the active organic components are considered vulnerable to photo-oxidation and represent the primary degradation channel. We present several (shelf life and light soaking) studies pointing to the relative stability of the active layers and instabilities in commonly used electrode materials. We show that engineering of the metal electrode and hole/electron injection layer can lead to environmentally stable devices without encapsulation.

AB PV performance models are used to predict how much energy a PV system will produce at a given location and subject to prescribed weather conditions. These models are commonly used by project developers to choose between module technologies and array designs (e.g., fixed tilt vs. tracking) for a given site or to choose between different geographic locations, and are used by the financial community to establish project viability. Available models can differ significantly in their underlying mathematical formulations and assumptions and in the options available to the analyst for setting up a simulation. Some models lack complete documentation and transparency, which can result in confusion on how to properly set up, run, and document a simulation. Furthermore, the quality and associated uncertainty of the available data upon which these models rely (e.g., irradiance, module parameters, etc.) is often quite variable and frequently undefined. For these reasons, many project developers and other industry users of these simulation tools have expressed concerns related to the confidence they place in PV performance model results. To address this problem, we propose a standardized method for the validation of PV system-level performance models and a set of guidelines for setting up these models and reporting results. This paper describes the basic elements for a standardized model validation process adapted especially for PV performance models, suggests a framework to implement the process, and presents an example of its application to a number of available PV performance models.

AB The correlation of stress-induced changes in the performance of laboratory-made CdTe solar cells with various 2(nd) and 3(rd) level metrics is discussed. The overall behavior of aggregated data showing how cell efficiency changes as a function of open-circuit voltage (V-oc), short-circuit current density (J(sc)), and fill factor (FF) is explained using a two-diode, PSpice model in which degradation is simulated by systematically changing model parameters. FF shows the highest correlation with performance during stress, and is subsequently shown to be most affected by shunt resistance, recombination and in some cases voltage-dependent collection. Large decreases in Jsc as well as increasing rates of V-oc degradation are related to voltage-dependent collection effects and catastrophic shunting respectively. Large decreases in V-oc in the absence of catastrophic shunting are attributed to increased recombination. The relevance of capacitance-derived data correlated with both Voc and FF is discussed.

AB From our investigation of damp heat (DH)-induced degradation of the main component materials and complete CIGS devices in recent years, this paper summarizes the results on the (1) DH stability of several transparent conducting oxides deposited on glass substrates, including ZnO-based thin films, Sn-doped In2O3 (ITO), and InZnO, and (2) effectiveness of physical and chemical mitigations for ZnO. The electrical results showed that the DH-induced degradation rates of i-ZnO, AZO, their bilayer (BZO), and AI-doped Zn1-xMgxO are significantly greater than those of ITO and InZnO. Thicker AZO films are more stable than thinner ones. Structurally, upon DH exposures, the hexagonal ZnO-based thin films are transformed into highly resistive Zn(OH)(2) and/or cubic ZnO with increased transmittance and substantial morphological changes. In the physical mitigation approach, plasma-enhanced chemical vapor-deposited SiOxNy and sputter-deposited InZnO are employed separately as moisture barriers to protect the underlying i-ZnO, AZO, and/or BZO with good results. However, the SiOxNy films required working with chemical treatments to improve adhesion to the BZO surfaces. In the chemical mitigation method, simple wet-solution treatments using special formulations are found effective to protect BZO from DH attack.

AB Thin and small form factor cells have been researched lately by several research groups around the world due to possible lower assembly costs and reduced material consumption with higher efficiencies. Given the popularity of these devices, it is important to have detailed information about the behavior of these devices. Simulation of fabrication processes and device performance reveals some of the advantages and behavior of solar cells that are thin and small. Three main effects were studied: the effect of surface recombination on the optimum thickness, efficiency, and current density, the effect of contact distance on the efficiency for thin cells, and lastly the effect of surface recombination on the grams per Watt-peak. Results show that high efficiency can be obtained in thin devices if they are well-passivated and the distance between contacts is short. Furthermore, the ratio of grams per Watt-peak is greatly reduced as the device is thinned.

ID HETEROJUNCTION SOLAR-CELLS; SYSTEMS
AB A new family of soluble low-bandgap star-shaped molecules based upon triphenylamine (TPA) and containing benzothiadiazole (BTD) acceptor moieties have been designed and synthesized for organic photovoltaic (OPV) applications. The design results in the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) being spatially distributed on the periphery of the molecule, allowing facile photo-induced electron transfer to the fullerene phenyl C-61 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM). Photoluminescence quenching studies indicate efficient quenching of excitons, while time-resolved microwave conductivity experiments demonstrate effective separation of charges. Adjunct electron-withdrawing moieties allow tuning of the LUMO level. Theoretical calculations indicate three derivatives with LUMO levels in varying proximity to that of PCBM, which allows empirical testing of the theorized need for a 0.3 eV LUMO offset to ensure efficient charge transfer to PCBM. Design, characterization and bulk heterojunction device results for the new materials will be presented.

AB High-resolution, spatially-resolved x-ray Laue patterns and high-resolution light beam induced current (LBIC) measurements are combined to study two multicrystalline solar cells made from the Heat Exchanger Method (HEM) and the Sting Ribbon Growth technique. The LBIC measurements were made at 4 different wavelengths (488, 633, 780, and 980 nm), resulting in penetration depths ranging from < 1 mu m to > 100 mu m. There is a strong correlation between the x-ray and LBIC measurements, showing that some twins and grain boundaries are effective in the reduction of local quantum efficiency, while others are benign.

ID SCANNING CAPACITANCE MICROSCOPY
AB We report on a characterization study of laser edge isolation in multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si) solar cells using microscopic electrical, structural, and morphological tools of scanning capacitance microscopy (SCM), conductive atomic force microscopy (C-AFM), electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), as well as a macroscopic electrical characterization of lock-in thermography (LIT). SCM and C-AFM measurements revealed that the emitter was not completely removed by the laser ablation, and considerable amounts of emitter dopant were driven into the material. A portion of the ablated or molten material was redeposited or recrystallized on top of the laser groove, forming either single- or polycrystalline stripes. Si particles with either polycrystalline or amorphous structures were also formed on the grooves. LIT measurement on a shunted device exhibits a high-temperature region centered on the groove line, indicating inadequate isolation. SEM observations show a significant different morphological/structural surface of the groove from that of the isolated devices. These techniques provide useful characterizations for failure analysis of the laser edge isolation.

ID LOCK-IN THERMOGRAPHY; MULTICRYSTALLINE SILICON; EMISSION
AB Characterization by imaging has been performed on various sets of Si, Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 (CIGS), and CdTe solar cell samples. The imaging techniques include photoluminescence (PL) imaging, electroluminescence (EL) imaging, reverse-bias EL imaging (ReBEL), illuminated lock-in thermography (ILIT), and forward- and reverse-bias dark lock-in thermography (DLIT). PL imaging of Si has shown that the image intensity correlates to minority-carrier lifetime. PL imaging of CIGS shows brightness variations after the deposition of the CIGS that persist through the CdS deposition and subsequent processing steps to finish the devices. The PL and EL intensities on both Si and CIGS finished cells correlate to efficiency and open-circuit voltage. Also, for all materials, PL and EL imaging show dark areas due to carrier recombination induced by defects. These same areas often appear in ILIT, DLIT, and ReBEL as heated areas or breakdown sites where currents flow through weak diodes, shunts, and defects. For Si cells, we have correlated the cells' fill factors to the amount of shunting detected by DLIT. For CIGS cells, we have identified these detrimental weak diodes and shunts by imaging and show an example of a defect analyzed in more detail by scanning electron microscopy techniques using top view and cross-sectional imaging.

ID SOLAR-CELLS; SPECTROSCOPY; CAPACITANCE
AB We report the development of a coordinated electrical characterization station integrating the data collection and analysis of a wide variety of DC, AC, and transient measurements. The DC current-voltage measurements consider the overall carrier-transport characteristics and cell performance. The AC measurements (e. g., capacitance-voltage, admittance spectroscopy, drive-level capacitance profiling) provide information regarding the spatial distribution and exchange of charge carriers with traps. The transient measurements (e. g., open-circuit voltage decay) investigate the lifetime and recombination of non-equilibrium carriers in a cell. We demonstrate that a coordinated characterization including the DC, AC, and transient measurements may generate new insight and unique understanding of the photovoltaic device. Using the equivalent-circuit parameters determined from the coordinated characterization set, we simulated the decay behavior of the open-circuit voltage in a crystalline silicon solar cell and found good agreement with experiment. The coordinated electrical characterization of CdTe thin-film solar cells not only avoided a misinterpretation of the admittance spectroscopy data, but also provided information to estimate the electrically active thickness, photoconductivity, and mobility of the CdTe absorber.

We report necessary synthesis conditions in order to control size, size distribution, and crystallinity of Si-QDs. This is important for applications of Si-QDs in photovoltaics [1,2], where they excite interest due to their size-tunable bandgap [3], potentially cheap fabrication, and possible enhancement of solar energy conversion efficiency through mechanisms such as multiple exciton generation [4].

ID ARRAYS
AB Vertically aligned ZnO nanocones were synthesized as cores by utilizing the growth rate difference between terrace and edge sites of nucleation domain during thermal vapor deposition. The p-n junctions were formed by subsequent growth of ZnTe as shells on the nanocone surface using PLD. The polycrystalline structures were observed for ZnTe shells, while the wurzite structure was shown for ZnO cores. Typical I-V characteristics of p-n junction were obtained for the nanocone core-shell structure, but not for the nanorod structure. These structural and electric characteristics indicate that ZnO nanocones are more feasible than ZnO nanorods as practical heterojunctions because the sloping facets of the nanocones facilitate deposition of ZnTe by PLD without the deleterious effects of shadowing. Furthermore, based on theoretical modeling of nanostructure heterojunctions, the nanocone-based junction exhibits an electrostatic potential profile that is much more effective for carrier transport than the electrostatic potential for the nanorod-based junction.

Different decomposition temperatures of Sn and Cd metal-organic precursors were used to achieve the composition variation. The structural properties varied with the composition along the gas flow direction, cubic CdO, spinel Cd2SnO4, amorphous, and finally the tetragonal SnO2 structure was observed with the optical bandgap of the films increasing from similar to 2.7 to 3.65 eV. The highest electron mobility was achieved within the amorphous phase, at a composition range of Cd-to-Sn of 2-to-1 similar to 1-to-1.

AB We measured the distribution of the electric potential and electric field on cross sections of working CdTe/CdS solar cells using SKPM. We analyzed the cells biased at different voltages (reverse and forward bias) and were able to identify different regions inside the devices. On standard cells, the main potential drop was around the CdTe/CdS junction and there was some drop inside the CdTe. As we increased the reverse bias, the region of the CdTe with the potential drop became wider, showing the expansion of the depletion region. The maximum of the electric field, which locates the p-n junction, occurred at the apparent CdTe/CdS interface. However, there was a sharp peak in the electric field at this location, which was correlated to an interdiffusion layer between CdTe and CdS. Results for cells without the CdS film were similar, but the strong electric field at the junction was not present. In this case, the maximum of the electric field was located at the CdTe/SnO2 junction.

AB AlInP commonly serves as the window layer in high bandgap III-V solar cells where it is responsible for reducing surface recombination by reflecting minority carriers. It must be optically transparent and conductive to majority carriers, and so is typically thin, 25 nm, and doped. It is the semiconductor layer most exposed to the environment during operation, which consists of high temperature and concentrated light in a terrestrial concentrating system. In this paper, the oxidation of AlInP was studied as it relates to III-V terrestrial solar cells. The effects of heat, humidity, and light were investigated. Undoped AlInP samples in a light-soaked, damp heat condition grew more than 20 nm of oxide in 2400 hours, as compared to 3 nm of oxide when in the same damp heat condition without light. Under the light-soaked, damp heat condition, n-type material oxidized faster than p-type material. These effects are indicative of a photoelectrochemical oxidation reaction between the semiconductor and an electrolyte, which is provided by the humidity in this case. The removal of UV light by the use of UV absorbing glass reduced much of this additional oxidation. The removal of humidity and UV limited oxide growth to 1.2 nm after 700 hours exposure. Although direct exposure of AlInP caused oxidation, GaInP solar cells utilizing n-AlInP windows were directly exposed to light and damp heat for over 2800 hours and found stable, an effect attributed to differences between n-AlInP window layers and n-AlInP epilayers.

AB Concentrator solar cells are almost always characterized near room temperature (RT) conditions, but are operated at system-dependent elevated temperatures in the field. Cell designs that are optimized for RT can quickly lose their advantage at higher temperatures. Cell designers have traditionally considered thermal management to be the problem of system designers, but some initial consideration of these issues at the cell level can reduce the thermal resistances and heat-load that must be removed by system level active or passive cooling. We consider the location of heat generation within multijunction solar cells and its flow through thermal resistances caused by the substrates and mixed III-V alloy layers. We show advantages of inverted designs by rejection of much of the unused light below 1 eV, which makes up about 16% of the power flux. A 40% efficient IMM solar cell with a 1 eV bottom cell will therefore have about a 20% lower heat flux than a comparable 40% efficient Ge-based solar cell.

AB We have modeled a Ga0.5In0.5P/GaAs/Ge triple junction solar cell, including two Esaki diodes, to analyze how performance changes with illumination intensity. As has been observed experimentally, fill factor (FF) is the primary aspect of performance that limits efficiency at high concentration levels. The FF decreases because of series resistance and barriers created by the GaAs/GaInP back surface field. By adjusting carrier concentration or the material associated with the back surface field (BSF) and the carrier concentration in the absorber, FF losses can be reduced and efficiency enhanced at high concentration levels.

AB A high quality solar cell with a bandgap in the range of 2.0-2.1 eV may enable the development of four-and five-junction solar cells for terrestrial and space applications. In this paper we describe a set of 2.0-2.1 eV n(+)/p solar cells fabricated from GaxIn1-xP and grown on compositional step-grades of GaAs1-yPy, on GaAs substrates. Cells were grown by atmospheric pressure organometallic vapor phase epitaxy. The tensile grades were designed to achieve nearly complete relaxation of the active layers, and the in-situ stress as monitored during growth showed a residual tensile stress of <10 MPa in the best samples. We have fabricated 1.98 eV cells with 1-sun and 70-sun efficiencies of 14.4% and 15.9%, respectively, under the direct spectrum, and 2.07 eV cells with 1-sun efficiencies of 10.7%. Improvements in the grade design that reduce the threading dislocation density below 10(6) cm(-2) are expected to lead to efficiency increases. Matching the lattice constants of the confinement and contact layers to the junction layers is critical to achieving low interface recombination velocities, and can be a challenge in lattice-mismatched structures if the graded layers are not sufficiently relaxed.

AB We describe results of our theoretical and experimental studies performed to investigate the influence of defects and defect distributions in multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si) wafers on the solar cell's performance. Dislocation distributions were measured on wafers from various bricks of a mc-Si ingot. Solar cells were fabricated on sister wafers and characterized by a variety of methods. Cell performance can be accurately predicted from dislocation distribution of a mc-Si wafer using local N/P junction characteristics in a distributed network model. This analysis is applied to investigate changes in cell performance caused by dislocation propagation within a brick of mc-Si ingot. The theoretical results agree well with the measured performance of cells fabricated on wafers taken from different places in a brick.

ID SOLAR-CELLS
AB We study amorphous/crystalline silicon heterojunctions (Si HJ) in both p-type and n-type c-Si solar cells under high level of photon injection using concentrated light up to 55 suns. The performance of the cells under intensive light is similar to other types of crystalline Si solar cells. The open circuit voltage (V-oc) increases logarithmically with light intensity for both n-type and p-type base cells and best 760 mV at 48 suns. The best cell efficiency peaks around 10 suns at 19.6% on an untextured p-type Si HJ cell. It represents an 11% increase of the efficiency relative to the one at 1 sun. The decrease of cell efficiency at a higher light intensity is mainly due to the decrease of fill factor (FF). We also found that the FF decreases much quickly in the cell with an n-type wafer compared to a p-type wafer. After more experiments with controlled front finger space, wafer bulk resistivity, and the area of the cells, we conclude that there is a difference in carrier collection for the heterojunction emitters of the n-type and of the p-type c-Si solar cells under intensive illumination.

AB We report our detailed investigation of the microstructure and surface chemistry of nanoporous black Si layers using transmission electron microscopy techniques. We find that the one-step nanoparticle-catalyzed liquid etch creates deep conical nanovoids. The cones provide the density-graded surface that suppresses reflection. The surface of the as-etched nanoporous black Si is an amorphous Si suboxide (SiOx) produced by the strongly oxidizing nanocatalyzed etch. The oxygen concentration decreases monotonically away from the nanovoid surface. This suboxide tends to be thinner near the cone tip than nearer to the wafer surface. The c-Si/suboxide interface is rough at the nanometer scale. Diffraction contrast reveals a high density of point defects in the c-Si near the c-Si/suboxide interface. These features account for the poor blue response of as-etched black Si solar cells. The passivation treatment is seen to convert the Si suboxide quite completely into SiO2 with a smooth c-Si/SiO2 interface. These changes are essential to achieve our 16.8%-efficient solar cells.

AB New York City has set a goal to increase its installed photovoltaic (PV) capacity from 1.1 MW in 2005 to 8.1 MW by 2015. A key barrier to reaching this goal, however, is the complexity of the interconnection process on secondary network distribution systems (network).
Although most areas of the country use simpler radial distribution systems to distribute electricity, many larger metropolitan areas like New York City use networks to serve their customers, increasing reliability and better utilizing utility assets. Unlike a radial distribution system, where each customer receives power through a single distribution feeder, a network utilizes a grid of interconnected distribution feeders, transformers, and special devices, to deliver power to each customer through two or more parallel circuits. This redundancy improves reliability, but it also requires more complicated coordination and protection schemes that can be disrupted by exported energy from distributed PV systems.
To assess ways to improve the interconnection process, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) conducted a review of concerns and solutions to PV interconnection in New York City-summarizing common concerns of utility engineers and network experts regarding interconnecting PV systems to networks [1]. This paper contains detailed descriptions of nine such concerns along with proven or potential solutions, and their potential impacts. There are also detailed descriptions of four methods used to insure non-exportation of power and energy which is typically the most common approach to interconnecting PV onto networks.

AB Predicting reliability and availability is a data driven capability of interest to the entire photovoltaic community, from material suppliers to system owners. Sandia National Laboratories is developing a predictive model and a host of methodologies needed for creating accurate predictions. Operational and maintenance (O&M) data from operating systems is only one piece of a broader data set required to make accurate predictions. Estimating reliability and availability of fielded photovoltaic systems requires times-to-failure or times-to-suspension and downtime data for each of the major components of each system. This paper addresses the collection (data set) and organization (standardized format) of data necessary for reliability and availability analyses.
Typically, for a large photovoltaic system the data are censored. The data sets are composed of a mixture of components with failure and components without failure. The data sets must be organized into times to failure, or suspension time in use without failure, for each component that is being analyzed. To accurately estimate availability the various contributors to system downtime, such as corrective or preventative maintenance and grid perturbations, must also be identified and modeled.
Preparation of the data for analysis usually consumes a significant percentage of the time required to generate a system reliability or availability estimate. A case study with data from a five year period of a fielded photovoltaic system is used to illustrate how a commercially available software tool for failure reporting and corrective action, XFRACAS (TM), was adapted to efficiently organize field data and transfer data into a suite of software tools. The software tool Weibull++(TM) was used to fit life distributions or growth models and to estimate parameters of the distributions. Another software tool, BlockSim 7 (TM) was used for Reliability Block Diagram (RBD) development and simulation of system reliability and availability.
XFRACAS (TM) is a web-based application that provides the capability for point of source data entry into a centralized data base. With some slight modifications, XFRACAS (TM) is capable of exporting data from the database that is properly organized and formatted for analysis by the life data analysis or reliability growth analysis tools.

AB Cadmium telluride (CdTe) and copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS) thin-film photovoltaic (PV) modules can exhibit substantial variation in measured performance depending on prior exposure history. We studied the metastable performance changes in these PV modules with the goal of establishing standard preconditioning or stabilization exposure procedures to mitigate measured variations prior to current-voltage (IV) measurements. We present the results of our case studies of module performance vs. exposure: light-soaked at 65 degrees C, exposed in the dark under forward bias at 65 degrees C; and finally longer-term outdoor exposure. We find that stabilization can be achieved using either light or dark bias methods. Additionally, we performed and present capacitance-voltage profile measurements on the modules to examine the changes in depletion widths or its hysteresis plus electronic carrier concentrations as a function of exposure.

AB In this work, we investigate the use of RF, DC, and mixed RF/DC magnetron sputtering and its effect on the optoelectronic properties of amorphous Indium Zinc Oxide (IZO) films sputtered from an 87/13 wt% ceramic target. The effect of oxygen concentration in the sputter gas is examined at several RF/DC power ratios and a variety of total powers to help optimize conductivity. We find that higher conductivities can be achieved at 50% of the typical DC sputtering oxygen concentration when duplicated via mixed RF/DC sputtering. By combining the two, mixed RF/DC sputtering allows for the high deposition rates of typical DC sputter deposition, while obtaining the greater conductivities and transparencies assisted by RF sputtering.

AB The impact of humidity and temperature on a zinc oxide based transparent conducting oxide (TCO) was assessed under accelerated aging conditions. An in situ electroanalytical method was used to monitor the electrical properties for a conducting zinc oxide under controlled atmospheric (humidity, temperature and irradiation) conditions. A review of thin film photovoltaic (PV) literature has shown one major failure mode of cells/modules is associated with the ingress of water into modules in the field. Water contamination has been shown to degrade the performance of the TCO in addition to corroding interconnects and other conductive metals/materials associated with the module. Water ingress is particularly problematic in flexible thin film PV modules since traditional encapsulates such as poly(ethyl vinyl acetate) (EVA) have high water vapor transmission rates. The accelerated aging studies of the zinc oxide based TCOs will allow acceleration factors and kinetic parameters to be determined for reliability purposes.

AB We demonstrate the use of multivariate analysis and high-dimensional visualization to uncover and exploit non-obvious quantitative structure-property relationships or processing-property-performance relationships in vast arrays of multidimensional photovoltaic (PV) datasets. Under the research framework of PV informatics, the critical role of these mapping techniques, for design of transparent conducting oxides in particular, is discussed in the context of combinatorially generated Co-doped ZnO thin films. Multidimensional maps are generated using principal component analysis, a dimensional reduction technique in data mining. We present high-dimensional information visualization techniques such as parallel coordinates for mapping relationships that exist in the huge amounts of heterogeneous high-throughput data of thin films.

AB We investigated glass cleaning and its effects on the adhesion of molybdneum (Mo) in this study. The soda-lime glass (SLG) used to fabricate the CIGS device was subjected to different cleaning methods. The cleaning solution's pH, temperature of the ultasonication bath, the solution, and method of cleaning all showed significant influences on the cleanliness of the glass. The Mo films sputter-coated on differently cleaned glass substrates were subjected to testing in damp heat at 85 degrees C and 85% relative humidity. The results, although not conclusive, show preliminary data supporting the hypothesis that the interfacial chemistry between the Mo and SLG glass due to the differences in cleaning methods significantly affects the Mo cracking and peeling mechanism.

TI SiO2 AS BARRIER LAYER FOR Na OUT-DIFFUSION FROM SODA-LIME GLASS

AB To reduce the manufacturing cost, soda-lime glass (SLG) is often used as the substrate for thin-film solar cells. It is known that SLG contains about 16 wt% Na in the form of Na2O. During the growth of thin films, Na ions may diffuse out from SLG and diffuse into the grown thin films and affect the optoelectronic properties of the thin films. The widely used commercial F-doped Sn2O (FTO) glass (Teck 15) has the structure SLG/FTO/SiO2/FTO. The first FTO layer and the SiO2 layer are very thin. The SiO2 layer is often expected to be a barrier layer for Na out-diffusion from SLG. However, our transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study indicates that there is a significant amount of Na existing in the second FTO layer, further indicating that SiO2 may not be a good barrier layer for Na out-diffusion. Therefore, we have investigated the possibility of a SiO2 layer as a barrier layer for Na out-diffusion from SLG. We have deposited two types of samples, SLG/SiO2/FTO and SLG/FTO, at 550 degrees C. For comparison, these samples were also annealed at temperatures between 550 degrees and 650 degrees C. The as-deposited and annealed samples were examined by TEM, X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and secondary-ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). We found that SiO2 is indeed an effective barrier layer for Na out-diffusion. Thermal annealing can enhance Na diffusion. It should be pointed out that our deposited SiO2 layer may behave differently from the SiO2 layer seen in the commercial FTO-coated glass.

AB As photovoltaic (PV) penetration of the power grid increases, it becomes vital to know how decreased power output may affect cost over time. In order to predict power delivery, the decline or degradation rates must be determined accurately. For non-spectrally corrected data several complete seasonal cycles (typically 3-5 years) are required to obtain reasonably accurate degradation rates. In a rapidly evolving industry such a time span is often unacceptable and the need exists to determine degradation rates accurately in a shorter period of time. Occurrence of outliers and data shifts are two examples of analytical problems leading to greater uncertainty and therefore to longer observation times. In this paper we compare three methodologies of data analysis for robustness in the presence of outliers, data shifts and shorter measurement time periods.

AB As photovoltaic (PV) penetration of the power grid increases, it becomes vital to know how decreased power output may affect cost over time. In order to predict power delivery, the decline or degradation rates must be determined accurately. At the Performance and Energy Rating Testbed (PERT) at the Outdoor Test Facility (OTF) at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) more than 40 modules from more than 10 different manufacturers were compared for their long-term outdoor stability. Because it can accommodate a large variety of modules in a limited footprint the PERT system is ideally suited to compare modules side-by-side under the same conditions.

AB Predicting photovoltaic array performance is an important part of system design and monitoring, so it's important to quantify the uncertainty associated with the predictions. The Sandia Array Performance Model [1] is one of many tools used to predict annual energy production, but the effect of the uncertainty in model coefficients has not been fully investigated. This paper quantifies the relative importance of voltage and current temperature coefficients, as well as the coefficients relating voltage and current to solar irradiance, for crystalline silicon modules. Using the coefficient variation observed in the Sandia module database and computer simulation, the effect of the uncertainty was quantified in terms of the range in predicted annual energy production relative to actual energy production by three small grid-connected PV systems. The relative importance of each coefficient by month of the year was also determined in order to understand the seasonal behavior of the performance model.

AB Grid-tied PV energy smoothing was implemented by using a valve regulated lead-acid (VRLA) battery as a temporary energy storage device to both charge and discharge as required to smooth the inverter energy output from the PV array. Inverter output was controlled by the average solar irradiance over the previous 1 h time interval. On a clear day the solar irradiance power curve is offset by about 1 h, while on a variable cloudy day the inverter output power curve will be smoothed based on the average solar irradiance. Test results demonstrate that this smoothing algorithm works very well. Battery state of charge was more difficult to manage because of the variable system inefficiencies. Testing continued for 30-days and established consistent operational performance for extended periods of time under a wide variety of resource conditions. Both battery technologies from Exide (Absolyte) and East Penn (Advanced Valve Regulated Lead-Acid) proved to cycle well at a partial state of charge over the time interval tested.

AB The ability to harvest all available energy from a photovoltaic (PV) array is essential if new system developments are to meet levelized cost of energy targets and achieve grid parity with conventional centralized utility power. Therefore, exercising maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms, dynamic irradiance condition operation and startup and shutdown routines and evaluating inverter performance with various PV module fill-factor characteristics must be performed with a repeatable, reliable PV source. Sandia National Laboratories is collaborating with Ametek Programmable Power to develop and demonstrate a multi-port TerraSAS PV array simulator.

AB CuxBiySez thin films with copper concentration x up to 29 mol. % are synthesized on glass substrates by chemical-bath deposition. Films with thickness in the range of 550-597 nm are fabricated by a multiple-dip process. Deposition parameters for a single-coating run are optimized to avoid re-dissolution of the particles, and to obtain large-area composition homogeneity in the films. Routine film composition Cu:Bi:Se and thickness are analyzed by X-ray fluorescence. To evaluate the doped Bi-Se thin films for potential use in photovoltaic devices, systematic investigations of the films' structural, morphological, optical, and electrical properties are performed. The physical properties of as-deposited and annealed films are analyzed by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, UV-Vis-IR photospectroscopy, and Hall effect and Seebeck effect measurements.

AB We describe the fabrication of ZnTe1-xOx intermediate band solar cell (IBSC) using the combination of oxygen ion implantation and pulsed laser melting. Also, we report the first demonstration of homojunction ZnTe solar cells in which n-ZnTe layer is fabricated by thermal diffusion of Al into p-ZnTe. The preliminary results of the ZnTe1-xOx IBSC are compared with the ZnTe cell. The homojunction ZnTe solar cells exhibited photovoltaic activity with an open circuit voltage of approximately 0.9 V and a maximum short circuit current (J(SC)) of 1.75 mA/cm(2). J(SC) was found to depend strongly on the location of pn-junction, with shallower pn-junction depth, corresponding to higher J(SC). Photo-modulated reflectance spectra of ZnTe1-xOx, show two optical transitions from the valence band to the conduction subband E+ (similar to 2.5 eV) and from the valence band to the intermediate band E- (similar to 1.7 eV). The external quantum efficiency of ZnTe1-xOx solar cell clearly shows PV responses due to the transition from valence band to the two conduction subbands (E- and E+) demonstrating the photovoltaic action through the intermediate band in this highly mismatched alloy.

AB Microsystems enabled photovoltaics (MEPV) is a recently developed concept that promises benefits in efficiency, functionality, and cost compared to traditional PV approaches. MEPV modules consist of heterogeneously integrated arrays of ultra-thin (similar to 2 to 20 mu m), small (similar to 100 mu m to a few millimeters laterally) cells with either one-sun or micro-optics concentration configurations, flexible electrical configurations of individual cells, and potential integration with electronic circuits. Cells may be heterogeneously stacked and separated by dielectric layers to realize multi-junction designs without the constraints of lattice matching or series connections between different cell types. With cell lateral dimensions of a few millimeters or less, a module has tens to hundreds of thousands of cells, in contrast to today's PV modules with less than 100. Hence, MEPV modules can operate at high voltages without module DC to DC converters, reducing resistive losses, improving shading performance, and improving robustness to individual cell failures.
Because these 'multi-junction' cells are integrated heterogeneously versus monolithically, different cell types need not be directly connected in series, improving the efficiency under conditions where different cell outputs are not ideally matched, for example with high incident angles in late afternoon. Instead, different numbers of same cell types are first connected in series, producing an intermediate common voltage, and then these 'microstrings' of different cell types are connected in parallel. Further series and parallel connections enable module voltages of a few hundred volts in small areas (similar to 18 x 20 cm) and allow nearly ideal linear degradation with shading across an installation of multiple modules.
We present details of these cell interconnection designs and performance under spectral and shading variations of the incident solar radiation for MEPV modules designed with heterogeneously stacked cells and single cell designs, and simulations of the relative efficiency of MEPV modules versus the probability of open and shorted cells.

Our results indicate an increase in conductivity of GZO films up to 3800 S/cm when grown in a pure argon atmosphere at an RF/DC power ratio of 1:1. Optical transmittance for all films is similar to 90% in the visible range. We find our high-conductivity samples to be highly textured wurtzite ZnO with the c-axis oriented perpendicular to the substrate. The films are relatively smooth with root-mean-square surface roughness of 2.0 nm. This high-performance GZO material deposited using this approach can pave the way to development of high-conductivity TCOs at low cost from Earth-abundant materials to enable cost-effective solar conversion technologies.

ID AREA CIGS MODULES
AB This paper describes the results from collaborative efforts in establishing an all-laser scribing technological capability for fabricating monolithically integrated CuInGaSe2 (CIGS) mini-modules. The scribing parameters required for each of the three scribing steps (P1, P2, P3) were determined and optimized by using three specific samples fabricated at NREL. A fiber laser system using a single wavelength at 1064 nm was employed for the scribing, which allowed fine control of programmable pulse shape and pulse train. In general, the three scribe lines were clean and smooth. For the first time, two mini-modules, with an effective area of similar to 7-cm x 7-cm having 10 cell strips in series connection, were fabricated by the "all-laser-scribing" technology. Small-beam localized quantum efficiency (QE) analysis showed large non-uniformity across the cell arrays. Performance-degrading factors were investigated by photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) analysis. By increasing the ZnO:Al (AZO) thickness and re-scribing with P3, the two reworked mini-modules showed substantial improvements in efficiency (best at 8.3%) with a decrease in series resistance and an increase in shunt resistance and fill factor.

ID BACK-SURFACE-FIELD
AB High-performing screen printed, fire-through Si solar cells require a uniform, about 10-mu m-thick, back surface field (BSF), with a peak Al concentration of about 10(18) cm(-3). This entails forming an similar to 30-mu m-thick Si-Al melt, which initiates sporadically and tends to agglomerate and ball up, thus producing a non-uniform BSF. We have developed a method to stabilize the Si-Al melt by deploying Si injection (at about 550 degrees C for 2-5 s) during ramp-up, which initiates a thin, uniform melt along the entire Si-Al interface. This promotes adhesion between the Si surface and the growing Al-Si melt. We have previously shown that this process produces an excellent back contact, but the quality of the front contact and overall cell efficiency were not evaluated. The primary concern was whether molten glass frit would rapidly react with SiN:H and etch away a significant thickness of N+ silicon. Here, we report that high-efficiency cells with a uniform BSF, an open-circuit voltage > 620 mV, and short-circuit current density > 32 mA/cm(2) can be produced by a T-t firing profile that includes Si injection.

AB Atmospheric solution processing can help toward a significant cost reduction of photovoltaics. We investigate the use of direct write deposition approaches for deposition of metallization for a variety of solar cell materials. We are studying inkjet printing and aerosol spraying of metal contacts for Si, CIS/CIGS and organic photovoltaics. We have developed metal organic decomposition inks for metals such as: silver, nickel, copper and aluminum. All of these can be deposited in lines with 30-40 mu m width and conductivities close to that of bulk metals. For silicon photovoltaics materials have been developed to facilitate Ohmic contact formation through an anti reflection coating. Initial research has been focusing on small cells, but in order to transfer the technology to production it has to be demonstrated on large area cells as well. For this the Atmospheric Processing Platform (APP) was developed at NREL. This platform allows us to scale the deposition of the developed inks and processing to large area (Up to 157 mm x 157 mm) and prototype contact patterns. The APP consists of several deposition, processing and characterization units, most located in a controlled environment. The atmospheric deposition tools in the APP are: inkjet printing, aerosol spraying and ultrasonic spraying. A rapid thermal processing unit is integrated for thermal processing. XRF and XRD can be accessed without leaving the controlled environment to determine the composition and structure of the deposited material. Sputter deposition and evaporation are also part of the APP, even though these techniques are not atmospheric. Details of the individual platforms in the APP will be given together with results of direct write contacts on large area cells.

AB We report data on the relative EBSD grain sizes for HWCVD a-Si:H films which have been sub-threshold laser illuminated prior to thermal annealing compared to films which have undergone no prior laser processing. For laser processed and thermally annealed films which exhibit a reduced incubation period tau(o), the EBSD grain sizes are not changed compared to those for the same film which is annealed directly from its as grown state. However, when comparing different films with similar (short) tau S-o, the laser processed film exhibiting a reduced tau(o) has much larger grains. The trends in EBSD grain size with in situ XRD crystallization time tau(c) are consistent with theoretical predictions obtained from the classical model of nucleation and grain growth. Predictions on the final grain size versus tau(c) for samples which have not yet been measured by EBSD are reported.

AB InAs quantum dots (QDs) embedded in GaAsSb barriers with various Sb compositions was investigated by photoluminescence (PL). The peak position of 8% and 13% Sb sample does not shift while that of 15% Sb sample was blue-shifted with increasing the excitation power. In addition, time-resolved PL (TRPL) data also show that 15% Sb sample has a much longer PL decay time compared to that of 8% and 13% Sb sample, implying that the transformation from type I to II occurs between 13% and 15% Sb composition. It is noted that the improvement of QD uniformity was achieved by an increase of a Sb composition in the GaAsSb barrier due to a Sb surfactant effect.

AB Compound semiconductor multi-junction solar cells are limited to small sizes (4-inch diameters) and are expensive due to starting wafer costs such as Ge and GaAs. High-quality GaAs films grown on Si substrates addresses many of these challenges. GaAs growth on high aspect ratio Si nanostructures has been investigated. High aspect ratio nanostructures can serve as templates for defect reduction as well as sacrificial layers. Thin (similar to 5 mu m) films of GaAs have been grown on a wide range of Si nanostructures using MBE and MOCVD methods. Both methods demonstrate effectiveness of defect density reduction with nanostructured surfaces. With MBE method, a high density of whisker growth is observed. With MOCVD growth, whisker-free relatively smooth surfaces have been produced. PL signal is also stronger with lower full width at half maximum from the MOCVD grown films. Spectral transmission measurements exhibit GaAs band edge consistent with crystalline GaAs substrates. A systematic effort aimed at growth optimization on nanostructured Si surfaces is expected to lead to defect density reduction in 10(3)/cm(2) range.

AB Polycrystalline CuInSe2 (CIS) thin films similar to 100 nm thick were deposited using the co-evaporation method onto fused quartz substrates held at three different substrate temperatures (T-s): 450 degrees C, 525 degrees C, and 600 degrees C. The films were characterized with spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) both from the film side and through the glass. These SE data with both measurement geometries were analyzed together, based on an optical model containing a bulk CIS layer and a thin surface over-layer. The resulting optical properties of the CIS films were analyzed with the critical point (CP) parabolic band approximation. CP parameters indicate that CIS grain size increases significantly from 450 degrees C to 525 degrees C, but the difference between 525 degrees C and 600 degrees C is small. This is consistent with the scanning electron microscopy measurements. A steady blue shift in CP energies with increasing T-s was also observed, possibly due to the tensile strain in the CIS films, which was confirmed by the X-ray diffraction characterizations.

AB We describe recent progress in developing epitaxial film crystal silicon (c-Si) solar cells that can be grown at low temperature (< 760 degrees C) on seed-on-glass substrates. This low-cost approach is enabled by rapid epitaxy (up to 300 nm/min) of Si films with low dislocation density (< 1x10(5) cm(-2)) at glass-compatible temperatures by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD). Epitaxial test cells on heavily-doped 'dead' Si wafers provide insight into the quality of the Si absorber and the physics that limit device performance. Our best 2-3 mu m thick, film silicon heterojunction (c-Si/a-Si) solar cells have reached similar to 6.7% efficiency (Voc similar to 570 mV, Jsc similar to 18 mA/cm(-2)) without rapid thermal anneal, defect passivation or light trapping. Unpassivated dislocations are strong recombination centers and limit effective minority carrier diffusion lengths to less than 15-20 mu m (roughly half the distance between dislocations). We also report devices without light-trapping on layer-transfer Si seed layers bonded to display-glass; these seed layers template growth of high-quality HWCVD cSi. Our initial devices have Voc = 460 mV, Jsc = 16.2 mA/cm(2), Eff. = 4.8 %, but will benefit from post-growth anneals, hydrogenation and new surface treatments before epitaxy. We discuss junction transport physics in the devices and explore the role of post-growth H-passivation and rapid thermal annealing treatments on device performance.

AB Using a sample of 471 million B (B) over bar events collected with the BaBar detector, we study the sum of seven exclusive final states B -> X-s(d)gamma, where X-s(d) is a strange (non-strange) hadronic system with a mass of up to 2.0 Gev/c(2). After correcting for unobserved decay modes, we obtain a branching fraction for b -> d gamma of (9.2 +/- 2.0(stat.) +/- 2.3(syst.)) x 10(-6) in this mass range, and a branching fraction for b -> s gamma of (23.0 +/- 0.8(stat.) +/- 3.0(syst.)) x10(-5) in the same mass range. We find BF(bd -> d gamma)/BF(bd -> s gamma) = 0.040 +/- 0.009(stat.) +/- 0.010(syst.), from which we determine |V-td/V-ts| = 0.199 +/- 0.022(stat.) +/- 0.024(syst.) +/- 0.002(th.).

AB Recent years have seen rapid developments in our knowledge and understanding of meson spectroscopy, especially in the charm quark sectors. In my invited overview I discussed some of these recent new developments, including theoretical developments, new production mechanisms such as B decays and double charmonium production, and the discovery of several of the many new candidates for excited charmonia, charm meson molecules, and hybrid (excited glue) mesons, in both charmonium and light quark sectors. In this writeup, due to length constraints I will restrict my discussion to a few examples of these new states, some of their broader theoretical implications, and future prospects.

We use a dataset, consisting of similar to 454 fb (1), collected at center-of-mass energies near 10.58 GeV by the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetricenergy collider. We observe, for the first time, candidates for the radial excitations of the D-0, D*(0), and D*(+), as well as the L = 2 excited states of the D-0 and D+, where L is the orbital angular momentum of the quarks.

AB The possible production of beyond-the-standard-model charge 4/3 color-sextet mesons is explored at the Large Hadron Collider. They could be observed through their decay into a pair of same-sign top quarks. Final states are examined in which both top quarks decay semi-leptonically. The energy of the charged lepton from the top quark semi-leptonic decay serves as a good measure of the top quark polarization, which, in turn determines the quantum numbers of the mesons and distinguishes vectors from scalars.

AB The total B -> X-s gamma decay rate and the CKM-matrix element vertical bar Vub vertical bar play an important role in finding indirect evidence for new physics affecting the flavor sector of the Standard Model, complementary to direct searches at the LHC and Tevatron. Their determination from inclusive B-meson decays requires the precise knowledge of the parton distribution function of the b quark in the B meson, called the shape function. We implement a new model-independent framework for the shape function with reliable uncertainties based on an expansion in a suitable set of basis functions. We present the current status of a global fit to BABAR and Belle data to extract the shape function and the B -> X-s gamma decay rate.

ID PHI-PHOTOPRODUCTION; NUCLEI
AB The theory of the strong interaction, Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), has been remarkably successful in describing high-energy and short-distance-scale experiments involving quarks and gluons. However, applying QCD to low energy and large-distance scale experiments has been a major challenge. Various QCD-inspired models predict a partial restoration of chiral symmetry in nuclear matter with modifications of the properties of hadrons from their free-space values. Measurable changes such as a shift in mass and/or a change of width are predicted at normal nuclear density. Photoproduction of vector mesons off nuclei have been performed at different laboratories. The properties of the rho, omega and phi mesons are investigated either directly by measuring their mass spectra or indirectly through transparency ratios. The latest results regarding medium modifications of the vector mesons in the nuclear medium will be discussed.

These e(+/-) come mainly from the decay of W-+/- and Z(0) bosons, and their asymmetries directly demonstrate parity violation in the couplings of the W-+/- to the light quarks. The observed electron and positron yields were used to estimate W+ boson production cross sections for the e(+) decays of the W-perpendicular to.

AB We present combined CDF and D0 searches for the Standard Model (SM) and Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) Higgs boson using up to 6.7 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity from 1.96 TeV proton-antiproton collisions at the Tevatron. Specialized searches for Higgs bosons produced via gluon fusion, associated boson production, and vector boson fusion, decaying to b (b) over bar, W+ W-, tau(+)tau(-), and gamma gamma are combined to produce 95% CL upper limits on SM Higgs production as a function of mass. Current Tevatron limits are shown, including a new exclusion for SM Higgs masses between 158 and 175 GeV/c(2). We also present prospects for future sensitivity.

AB Starting early 2010 the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been colliding protons on protons at a center of mass energy of 7 TeV. These first 7 TeV collisions have been recorded by the ATLAS experiment, which is currently rediscovering the Standard Model processes. Among the particles produced are well known di-muon resonances like the J/psi, the psi(2S) and the (sic) family, which are standard candles that play an important role in detector commissioning and calibration. The observation of these resonances with the ATLAS experiment and first results on the performance of the ATLAS detector are reported here. The results indicate, that ATLAS is performing well. Within the available statistics no significant deviations of the reconstructed mass positions have been found and the observed resolutions are within expectations and well modeled by the detector simulation.

AB A search for new Physics is performed with inclusive dijet final states in pp collisions, using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 120 +/- 13 nb(-1) collected by the CMS experiment at LHC. Generic upper limits at the 95% confidence level (CL) are presented on the product of the resonance cross section, branching fraction into dijets, and acceptance, separately for decays into quark-quark, quark-gluon, or gluon-gluon pairs. The data exclude new particles predicted in the following models at the 95% CL: string resonances, with mass less than 1.67 TeV, excited quarks, with mass less than 0.59 TeV and axigluons and colorons with mass less than 0.52 TeV. A search for quark compositeness in the form of quark contact interactions is conducted using the dijet centrality ratio, which quantifies the angular distribution of the dijets. The measurement is found to agree with the predictions of the Standard Model and the statistical analysis of the data provides a lower limit on the energy scale of quark contact interactions of 1.9 TeV at the 95% confidence level. The above results extend previously published limits on these models.

AB Deeply virtual exclusive reactions offer an unique opportunity to study the structure of the nucleon at the parton level as one has access to Bjorken xB and momentum transfer to the nucleon t at the same time. Such processes can reveal much more information about the structure of the nucleon than either inclusive electroproduction or elastic form factors alone. Dedicated experiments to study Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) and Deeply VirtualMeson Production ( DVMP) have been carried out in Hall B at Jefferson Lab. DVCS helicity-dependent and helicity-independent cross sections and beam spin asymmetries have been measured with CLAS, as well as cross sections and asymmetries for the pi(0), eta, rho(0), rho+, omega and phi for exclusive electroproduction. The data were taken in a wide kinematic range in Q(2)= 1-4.5 GeV2, x(B)=0.1-0.5, and | t| up to 2 GeV2. We will discuss the interpretation of these data in terms of traditional Regge and Generalized Parton Distributions models. We view the work presented in this report as leading into the program of the Jefferson Lab 12 GeV upgrade. The increased energy and luminosity will allow us to acquire data at much higher Q(2) and x(B), and perform Rosenbluth L/T separations of the cross sections.

AB We investigate new physics that could be discovered with very little LHC data, beyond the expected sensitivity of the Tevatron. We construct "supermodels", for which the LHC sensitivity with 10 pb(-1) luminosity is already greater than that of the Tevatron with 10 fb(-1). The simplest supermodels involve s-channel resonances in the quark-antiquark and especially in the quark-quark channels. In the latter case, the LHC sensitivity with 0.1 pb(-1) can already be greater than that of the Tevatron with 10 fb(-1). We concentrate on easily visible final states with small standard model backgrounds, and find that there are simple searches, besides those for Z' states, which could discover new physics in early LHC data. Many of these are well-suited to test searches for "conventional" models, often discussed for larger data sets.

AB The last unknown neutrino mixing angle theta(13) is one of the fundamental parameters of nature; it is also a crucial parameter for determining the sensitivity of future long-baseline experiments aimed to study CP violation in the neutrino sector. Daya Bay is a reactor neutrino oscillation experiment designed to achieve a sensitivity on the value of sin(2)(2 theta(13)) to better than 0.01 at 90% CL. The experiment consists of multiple identical detectors placed underground at different baselines to minimize systematic errors and suppress cosmogenic backgrounds. With the baseline design, the expected anti-neutrino signal at the far site is about 360 events per day and at each of the near sites is about 1500 events per day. An overview and current status of the experiment will be presented.

AB The MiniBooNE experiment has operated at Fermilab since 2002. It has collected 6.46x10(20) pot in neutrino mode and 5.66x10(20) pot in antineutrino mode. This paper discusses the most recent results of analyzing this data for oscillation like phenomena. An unexplained excess of 20.9 +/- 14.0 events is observed in the latest electron-like antineutrino data. When a likelihood fit to a naive 2-neutrino-oscillation appearance hypothesis is performed, it prefers an oscillation hypothesis, over the background-only hypothesis, with a significance probability of 99.5% (2.7 sigma). The analysis of the data is still limited by low statistical precision, and the MiniBooNE experiment is foreseen to continue operating in antineutrino mode. The oscillation data is compared directly to the old result from LSND as a function of L/E, of relevance to neutrino oscillations.

Such data are in demand now, because they, most likely, may explain the dramatic disagreement of proton electromagnetic form factors measurements in the polarization transfer experiments at TJNAF with previous unpolarized measurements using a Rosenbluth separation technique. Experiment was performed recently at VEPP-3 storage ring at the energy of positron/electron beams of 1.6 GeV and at e(+)/e(-) scattering angles around 20 degrees and 65 degrees.

AB Jets from heavy ion collisions provide a measurement of the medium-induced parton energy loss and the in-medium fragmentation properties. The medium modification effects are determined by comparing to a p+p baseline measurement, but the high multiplicity background in a heavy ion collision inhibits the direct application of traditional jet reconstruction techniques and novel approaches are needed to deal with this environment. Alternatively, angular correlations between the hadronic fragments of energetic partons can be used to understand the hot dense matter produced in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The yield and shape modifications of the away side peaks as function of transverse momentum compared to p+p has been interpreted as a medium response to parton energy loss. Direct photon-hadron correlations are another excellent channel to study jets from heavy ion collisions. Photons do not interact strongly with the medium and thus the photon approximately balances the momentum of the opposing jet, allowing the measurement of the effective modification to the fragmentation function through jet energy loss in the medium.
