Multi-scale Coupled Processes Modeling of Fractures as Porous, Interfacial and Granular Systems from Rock Images with the Numerical Manifold Method

Abstract The greatest challenges of rigorously modeling coupled hydro-mechanical processes in fractured rocks at different scales are associated with computational geometry. In addition, selections of continuous or discontinuous models, physical laws, and coupling priorities at different scales based on different geometric features determine the applicability of a numerical model for a certain type of problem. In this study, we present our multi-scale modeling capabilities that have been developed based on the numerical manifold method for analyzing coupled hydro-mechanical processes in fractured rocks. Based on their geometric features, the fractures are modeled as continua—finite-thickness porous zones, and discontinua—discontinuous interfaces and microscale asperities and granular systems. Different governing equations, physical laws, coupling priorities, and approaches for addressing fracture intersections and shearing are then applied to describe these. We applied these models to simulate coupled processes in fractured rocks using realistic geometry obtained from rock images at different scales. We first calculated shearing of a single fracture with different models and demonstrated the impacts of asperities on shearing. We then applied the continuous and discontinuous models to simulate a network of rough fractures, demonstrating that contact dynamics contribute significantly to the geometric, multi-physical evolution of systems where rough fractures are not mineral filled. For a discrete fracture network, our coupled processes modeling demonstrates that shearing of the discrete fractures can have a major impact on stress and pore pressure distribution. Lastly, we applied the discontinuous granular model to simulate evolution of a complex granular system with a deformation band, demonstrating that the deformation band can dominate contact dynamics, the structural and the stress evolution of the granular system.

Optimization of edge bead removal (EBR) process to enhance defect reduction in optical lithography

Defect reduction remains a critical objective in the integrated circuit manufacturing process, particularly within the highly re-entrant lithography modules where minimizing defects is crucial. Defects at the wafer edge can contaminate lithography modules and downstream processing equipment, leading to redistribution onto the wafer surface and adversely affecting overall device yield. A persistent challenge in the resist coating process is the formation of resist edge beads, driven by the strong Van der Waals attraction of excess photoresist (PR) to itself and the underlying substrate. The edge bead removal (EBR) process is a standard cleaning step designed to eliminate these edge beads and prevent potential contamination. Here, in this study, we identify the sources of EBR induced defects and additional EBR process encroachment toward edge patterning during the EBR cleaning process. This study provides a comprehensive study aimed at optimizing the EBR cleaning process to effectively eliminate EBR-induced defects, thereby enhancing overall device yield. Specifically, we identify three primary defects induced by the EBR cleaning process: rainbow-type, finger-shaped, and teardrop-type defects. Our experimental study reveals that in addition to EBR rinse time, PR cast time is crucial parameters contributing to the formation of these defects. By properly optimizing the PR cast time and EBR rinse time, we were able to remove nearly 100 % of dense clusters of defects that were easily visible even at low magnification optical microscopy throughout the wafer edge. We observed that shorter PR casting times shows edge defects caused by inefficient EBR process because of insufficient time for PR to fully settle causing superfluous PR to continue flowing toward wafer edge during EBR clearing step, leading to partial removal of PR at the wafer edge and the formation of rainbow defects. Proper optimization of both PR casting time and EBR chemistries dispense time is essential to resolve these defects, ensuring efficient EBR cleaning process and improved overall device yield.

Getting things done onsite: Heat Source production never ramps down

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed many norms in the world and at LANL. During the rapid transition of sending many to work from home in March, some programs were deemed mission critical, with the expectation to continue driving their missions forward. One of those essential programs is Heat Source Technologies, a group within the Actinide Material Power & Processing (AMPP) Division at TA-55. Within the Associate Laboratory Directorate of Weapons Production (ALDWP), the group responsible for the Pu-238 heat sources continued their work nearly uninterrupted as many others made the mandatory transition to work remotely. This group, known as AMPP-1, Heat Source Technologies, works on the production line producing heat sources from Plutonium (Pu)-238, which is an essential mission for National Security. This group is comprised of nearly 90 employees and operates out of the TA-55 Plutonium Facility (PF-4 and PF-5) producing heat sources. Heat source production includes the operations that purify, process, and weld Pu-238 oxide into encapsulated heat sources that are essential for space and defense missions.

Mapping Glacier Basal Sliding Applying Machine Learning

During the RESOLVE project (“High-resolution imaging in subsurface geophysics: development of a multi-instrument platform for interdisciplinary research”), continuous surface displacement and seismic array observations were obtained on Glacier d’Argentière in the French Alps for 35 days in May 2018. The data set is used to perform a detailed study of targeted processes within the highly dynamic cryospheric environment. In particular, the physical processes controlling glacial basal motion are poorly understood and remain challenging to observe directly. Especially in the Alpine region for temperate based glaciers where the ice rapidly responds to changing climatic conditions and thus, processes are strongly intermittent in time and heterogeneous in space. Spatially dense seismic and Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements are analyzed applying machine learning to gain insight into the processes controlling glacial motions of Glacier d’Argentière. Using multiple bandpass-filtered copies of the continuous seismic waveforms, we compute energy-based features, develop a matched field beamforming catalog and include meteorological observations. Features describing the data are analyzed with a gradient boosting decision tree model to directly estimate the GPS displacements from the seismic noise. We posit that features of the seismic noise provide direct access to the dominant parameters that drive displacement on the highly variable and unsteady surface of the glacier. The machine learning model infers daily fluctuations and longer term trends. The results show on-ice displacement rates are strongly modulated by activity at the base of the glacier. The techniques presented provide a new approach to study glacial basal sliding and discover its full complexity.

A new method for operating a continuous flow diffusion chamber to investigate immersion freezing: assessment and performance study

Glaciation in mixed-phase clouds predominately occurs through the immersion freezing mode where ice nucleating particles (INPs) immersed within supercooled droplets induce nucleation of ice. Currently, model representations of this process are a large source of uncertainty in simulating cloud radiative properties, and to constrain these estimates, continuous flow diffusion chamber (CFDC)-style INP devices are commonly used to assess the immersion freezing efficiencies of INPs. In this study, a new approach was explored to operating such an ice chamber that provides maximum activation of particles without droplet breakthrough and correction factor ambiguity to obtain high-quality INP measurements in a manner that has not been demonstrated as possible previously. The conditioning section of the chamber was maintained at ~ –20 °C and water relative humidity (RH w ) ~ 113 % conditions to maximize the droplet activation, and the droplets were supercooled with an independently temperature-controlled nucleation section at a steady cooling rate (0.5 °C min –1 ) to induce the freezing of droplets and evaporation of unfrozen droplets. The performance of the modified ice chamber was evaluated using four INP species: K-feldspar, illite-NX, Argentinian soil dust, and airborne arable dust that had shown ice nucleation over a wide span of supercooled temperatures. Dry dispersed and size-selected K-feldspar particles were generated in the laboratory. Illite-NX and soil dust particles were sampled during the second phase of the Fifth International Ice Nucleation Workshop (FIN-02) campaign, and airborne arable dust particles were sampled from the aerosol inlet located on the rooftop of the laboratory. The measured ice nucleation efficiencies of model aerosols with a surface active site density (n s ) metric were higher, but mostly agreed within one order of magnitude compared to literature results.

Solid Phase Gradient Alloying Method via ShAPE

Alloying has been used to confer desirable properties to various metallic systems since the bronze age. For example, Ni, Mn, and Cr are alloyed into an Fe matrix to make steel, which has improved strength and corrosion resistance (as displayed in Fig. 1). In addition to the type of alloying elements, the amount of alloying elements added into a matrix is also very critical for a material’s mechanical property, physical property, machinability, and cost. Conventionally, new alloys are discovered by combining alloy precursors and elemental constituents into a mixture and melting them together. The solidified product or ingot represents a usually non-homogeneous combination of the chemistry with a microstructure dictated by the physics of solidification. It is time and energy intensive to optimize the alloying amounts via the casting process and hence, economically not conducive to rapid alloy discovery. In addition, the cast microstructure seen in the as-cast ingot is often not the ideal, nor even desired structure for optimized performance. Cast materials often need further processing such as homogenization, annealing, and deformation work put in through rolling, forging, extruding, etc. to have favorable microstructures and properties. A faster method to discover new alloy combinations and evaluate them in their worked or processed form is needed. Recently, Laser Engineered Net Shaping was applied to fabricate gradient compositional material for alloy designing. However, the mechanical properties of this gradient alloy were poor due to the existence of impurities, oxidation and cracks that are inherent in the melt-solidification process. Because of these limitations, we propose to use a solid-phase process (ShAPE) to create bulk materials (extrudates) that vary in composition from one end of the extruded solid to the other. Various manufacturing methods for alloy design including conventional casting method, laser based combinatorial method and current solid phase gradient alloying method are displayed and compared in Fig. 2. ShAPE machine and a schematic of ShAPE process are displayed in Fig. 3. Starting material is processed by a rotating and plunging die to form an extrudate. We are proposing through this methodology to invent a new, bulk-scale combinatorial technique. With this novel technique, alloying element can be dissolved into the matrix with a continued gradient without bulk melting. Formation of inter-metallics and defects originating from melt processing can be avoided. In addition, the ShAPE process creates the mixed alloy chemistry, and meanwhile subjects the material to severe plastic strain, which induces the favorable “worked” microstructure. Products from the ShAPE process can be tested in hardness directly providing a path to rapid evaluation of mechanical properties. The ability to create graded structures using friction stir processing (FSP) has been demonstrated, however using the ShAPE process we believe will lead to much faster and higher fidelity results. When combined with high throughput screening methods of physical, mechanical and microstructural property characterization, efficiency and accuracy of alloy design can be significantly improved.

An additively manufactured near-eutectic Al-Ce-Ni-Mn-Zr alloy with high creep resistance

A new additively manufactured (AM) Al-7.5Ce-4.5Ni-0.4Mn-0.7Zr (wt.%) near-eutectic alloy is reported, which shows unprecedented creep resistance up to 400 °C (a homologous temperature of 0.72). The eutectic solidification microstructure comprises ~ 27 vol% of coarsening-resistant second phase network with an ultrafine (<100 nm) inter-phase spacing. Both Mn and Zr contribute to creep resistance of the alloy. Small amount of Mn addition promotes selection of coarsening resistant phases without compromising the alloy processability. Zr not only improves hot-tearing resistance, but further enhances the second phase coarsening resistance resulting in improved creep resistance. Neutron diffraction performed during creep deformation reveals that the underlying mechanism for creep resistance in this alloy is impedance to dislocation motion stemming from the ultrafine eutectic solidification microstructure, whereas load transfer strengthening becomes less effective as the creep temperature increases. The second phase forms a continuous network in the as-fabricated condition, which is maintained during long-term creep at 300 °C. However, this network is fragmented into fine dispersoids at higher temperatures. It is proposed that the rate-limiting deformation mechanism at 300–400 °C is (i) dislocation climb for the alloy with fragmented second phase dispersoids and (ii) Orowan looping for the alloy with a continuous second phase network. In conclusion, the present design of an AM-processable multicomponent eutectic alloy with high creep resistance can be applied to other metallic systems exhibiting eutectic reactions, with expected extreme creep resistance.

FPGA-Based Spill Regulation System for the Muon Delivery Ring at Fermilab

The Muon to Electron Experiment (Mu2e) requires a uniform beam profile from the Muon Delivery Ring to meet their experimental needs. A specialized Spill Regulation System (SRS) has been developed to help achieve consistent spill uniformity. The system is based on a custom-designed carrier board featuring an Arria 10 SoC, capable of executing real-time feedback control. The FPGA processes beam pulses of approximately 200 ns every 1.695 $μ$s, allowing for continuous monitoring of the extracted spill intensity through fast bunch integration. The system directly controls three quadrupole magnets, which work in conjunction with sextupole magnets to achieve third-order resonant extraction. Furthermore, the board interfaces with Fermilab's Accelerator Control Network (ACNET), enabling operators to modify spill regulation settings in real-time via the control network while providing diagnostic waveforms. These waveforms help operators monitor the process and fine-tune the feedback mechanisms. This paper presents an overview of the board's architecture and its initial progress toward regulating beam extraction. This initial version of the regulation system aims to evaluate baseline performance to inform future system improvements.

Embedding of Optical Fibers with Electric Field Assisted Sintering

The Electric Field Assisted Sintering (EFAS) technique was used for embedding the fibers, involving rapid heating via an electric current and pressure, reducing fiber exposure to high temperatures. Stainless steel guide tubes were inserted at the fiber-matrix junctions to prevent fiber breakage during the sintering process. The study varied key EFAS parameters—temperature (800°C to 980°C), pressure (40-50 MPa), and hold time (5-10 minutes)—to assess how they influenced fiber embedding. After embedding, the fibers were inspected using optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) to evaluate optical losses and strain along the fiber length. The OFDR scans confirmed that the fibers remained intact, and subsequent transmission tests demonstrated no macroscopic fractures. The embedded samples were also analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray computed tomography (CT) scans. These tests confirmed good bonding between the fiber and matrix with no cracking, though some porosity was present in samples fabricated at lower temperatures. At higher temperatures (980°C), the fiber-matrix bonding was continuous and defect-free, with metal coatings aiding in the bonding process. Elemental analysis showed interdiffusion between the fiber coatings and matrix materials, particularly between the gold coating and stainless steel. Helium leak tests revealed that lower sintering temperatures resulted in matrix porosity, causing leaks, but samples fabricated at 980°C were leak-tight.

Energy and Power Evolution Over the Lifetime of a Battery

Li-ion batteries currently are dominant energy storage devices for electric vehicles. Rechargeable batteries with lower cost, longer lifetime, and higher safety are desired in support of building of a green grid infrastructure. The continued investment in new battery materials, novel battery structures, advanced manufacturing processes, and accelerated testing/validation of battery performance has led to significant progress in battery development and deployment. Battery safety/reliability, which is essential to the success of a battery technology in the real world, naturally becomes the next big topic in battery research. Recently, the increasing interest in long-duration storage, fast charging, battery secondary use, and material recycling to build a circular industry and sustainable material supply chain has compelled further attention to understand the energy/power evolution and safety over the lifetime of a battery. Here, in this short Viewpoint, we discuss some high-level analyses on the energy/power evolution of rechargeable batteries over their life cycles aiming to inspire more discussion on the safety and sustainability of some representative and emerging battery technologies.

Desalination for a circular water economy

Today's water systems are enabled by ample fresh water sources, low-cost centralized treatment, and facile wastewater disposal. Climatic change, aging infrastructure, and source water contamination have exposed the vulnerabilities of this linear water paradigm. While seawater desalination enables coastal communities to augment their supply, more broadly securing water systems for municipal, industrial, and agricultural water users will require distributed desalination and fit-for-purpose reuse of nontraditional water sources. Our linear water economy must evolve into a resilient circular water economy, where water is continuously reused and “contaminants” become the feedstocks for other economically valuable processes. Additionally, technology innovation is needed to deliver autonomous, precise, resilient, intensified, modular, and electrified desalination systems that reduce the cost, improve the performance, and enhance the resilience of nontraditional water reuse systems. Meanwhile, strong federal leadership and coordination is needed to accelerate desalination research, promote information gathering efforts to direct technology development, and create an expanded role for non-profit organizations in knowledge dissemination.

Defect characterization and charge transport measurements in high-resolution Ni/n-4H-SiC Schottky barrier radiation detectors fabricated on 250 μ m epitaxial layers

Advances in the growth processes of 4H-SiC epitaxial layers have led to the continued expansion of epilayer thickness, allowing for the detection of more penetrative radioactive particles. In this work, we report the fabrication and characterization of high-resolution Schottky barrier radiation detectors on 250 μm thick n-type 4H-SiC epitaxial layers, the highest reported thickness to date. Several 8 × 8 mm 2 detectors were fabricated from a diced 100 mm diameter 4H-SiC epitaxial wafer grown on a conductive 4H-SiC substrate with a mean micropipe density of 0.11 cm -2 From the Mott–Schottky plots, the effective doping concentration was found to be in the range (0.95–1.85) × 10 14 cm -3 , implying that full depletion could be achieved at ~5.7 kV (0.5 MV/cm at the interface). The current-voltage characteristics demonstrated consistently low leakage current densities of 1–3 nA/cm 2 at a reverse bias of -800 V. This resulted in the pulse-height spectra generated using a 241Am alpha source (5486 keV) manifesting an energy resolution of less than 0.5% full width at half maximum (FWHM) for all the detectors at -200 V. The charge collection efficiencies (CCEs) were measured to be 98–99% with no discernable correlation to the energy resolution. A drift-diffusion model fit to the variation of CCE as a function of bias voltage, revealed a minority carrier diffusion length of ~10 μm. Deep level transient spectroscopy measurements on the best resolution detector revealed that the excellent performance was the result of having ultralow concentrations of the order of 1011 cm-3 lifetime limiting defects—Z 1/2 and EH 6/7 .

Extended families of critical and stationary droplets for nonequilibrium phase transitions in spatially discrete bistable systems

Bistable nonequilibrium systems are realized in catalytic reaction-diffusion processes, biological transport and regulation, spatial epidemics, etc. Behavior in spatially continuous formulations, described at the mean-field level by reaction-diffusion type equations (RDEs), often mimics that of classic equilibrium van der Waals type systems. When accounting for noise, similarities include a discontinuous phase transition at some value, p eq , of a control parameter, p , with metastability and hysteresis around p eq . For each p , there is a unique critical droplet of the more stable phase embedded in the less stable or metastable phase which is stationary (neither shrinking nor growing), and with size diverging as p → p eq . Spatially discrete analogs of these mean-field formulations, described by lattice differential equations (LDEs), are more appropriate for some applications, but have received less attention. It is recognized that LDEs can exhibit richer behavior than RDEs, specifically propagation failure for planar interphases separating distinct phases. Herein, we show that this feature, together with an orientation dependence of planar interface propagation also deriving from spatial discreteness, results in the occurrence of entire families of stationary droplets. The extent of these families increases approaching the transition and can be infinite if propagation failure is realized. In addition, there can exist a regime of generic two-phase coexistence where arbitrarily large droplets of either phase always shrink. Such rich behavior is qualitatively distinct from that for classic nucleation in equilibrium and spatially continuous nonequilibrium systems.

DIVA/DeviceEditor v6.1.2

DIVA is an end-to-end DNA design and construction management platform that streamlines how researchers design, build, and receive sequence-verified DNA constructs. Through a web-based BioCAD interface (DeviceEditor), researchers independently design DNA constructs and submit them to a centralized queue with a single action. Designs progress transparently through standardized states which allow researchers to track status and access finished constructs via a central DNA repository. Submitted designs are reviewed by dedicated staff for feasibility and optimization, reducing costly failures and improving downstream execution. Automated DNA assembly software optimizes construction strategies by reusing existing parts where possible and sourcing synthetic DNA only when needed. Standardized, sequence-agnostic assembly methods enable many independent constructs to be built in parallel using lab automation, dramatically increasing throughput. High-throughput next-generation sequencing is used to verify construct accuracy, with flexible platforms selected based on task requirements. Throughout the process, detailed success and failure data are captured and analyzed, enabling continuous improvement of assembly protocols. Compared to traditional, manual DNA construction workflows, DIVA offers higher scalability, transparency, reproducibility, and data-driven optimization.

Investigation of modified uni-traveling carrier photodiode for cryogenic microwave photonic links

Quantum devices present the potential for unparalleled computing and communications capabilities; however, the cryogenic temperatures required to successfully control and read out many qubit platforms can prove to be very challenging to scale. Recently, there has emerged an interest in using microwave photonics to deliver control signals down to ultracold stages via optical fiber, thereby reducing thermal load and facilitating dense wavelength multiplexing. Photodetectors can then convert this optical energy to electrical signals for qubit control. The fidelity of the quantum operations of interest therefore depend heavily upon the characteristics of the photodiode, yet experimental demonstrations of fiber-coupled photodetection systems at low temperatures are relatively few in number, leaving important open questions regarding how specific detectors may perform in real-world cryogenic settings. In this work, we examine a highly linear modified uni-traveling carrier photodiode (MUTC-PD) under C-band illumination (1530–1565 nm) at three temperature regimes (300 K, 80 K, and ∼4 K) and multiple bias conditions. Our findings of reduced responsivity but preserved bandwidth are consistent with previous studies, while our saturation tests suggest a variety of potential applications for MUTC-PDs in cryogenic microwave photonics with and without electrical bias. Overall, our results should provide a valuable foundation for the continued and expanding use of this detector technology in quantum information processing.
