VSLAM and Coplanar POSIT for Advanced Air Mobility Approach and Landing

Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) aircraft have many challenges for landing accurately and safely in urban, suburban, and rural environments. Localization in large and open rural environments could utilize GPS, but AAM aircraft in urban environments will encounter GPS degradation. Another challenge involves flight operation time, i.e., flying during the day or at night. There are different types of guidelines and landmarks at runways, heliports, and vertiports for daytime and nighttime applications. Tailoring feature detection methods for AAM approach and landing during the day and night pose different issues and challenges. It is easier to detect edges, lines, and other runway markers during the day than at night. Conversely, it is easier to detect landing light configurations and patterns at nighttime than daytime. Consequently, utilizing the same feature detector for daytime and nighttime operations may not be feasible. This paper focuses on vision-based precision approach and landing (PAL) and builds on previous work by comparing ORB SLAM, custom VSLAM, and coplanar pose from orthography and scaling with iterations (POSIT) for daytime and nighttime operations. Implementing high fidelity simulations with computer graphics and extracting video frames from flight test data provide promising results for AAM PAL applications.

Author Correction: US oil and gas system emissions from nearly one million aerial site measurements

Correction to: Naturehttps://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-024-07117-5 Published online 13 March 2024 In the version of the article initially published, several errors were present and have been corrected in the HTML and PDF versions of the article and Supplementary Information. The main results, conclusions, and our interpretations of the data remain unchanged. See the new Supplementary Information Section S15 for a more detailed description of the errors corrected and the resulting effects on the analysis. Data processing and methods corrections Overflight count correction: We previously used pre-computed source coverage data for some Carbon Mapper campaigns that was computed differently than was required for our analysis. We have re-computed Carbon Mapper source coverage based on flightline polygons and source coordinates. Transition point computation, well sites: The updated version now correctly compares the cumulative emissions distribution of simulated well site emissions with that of aerially detected sources (rather than plumes) when computing the transition point. Transition point computation, midstream: Additionally, the transition point calculation has been corrected to exclude aerially detected midstream emissions below the transition point, which was previously leading to double counting of these emissions. This error was not present for upstream (well site) emissions. Calculation errors Unit error: We corrected a specific unit conversion error affecting well site emissions in the Kairos Fort Worth dataset. Across all datasets, we also correct the conversion factor for converting from standard volume to mass for midstream emissions. Sorting error: We correct code that was applying incorrect sorting when computing correction factors to account for partial detection at well sites. Small typographical corrections were made in Fig. 1b and SI Section S4.1.

Multimodal Analysis of Reaction Pathways of Cathode Materials for Lithium Ion Batteries

Conversion mechanism in lithium ion batteries provides higher capacity than intercalation mechanism since multiple numbers of electrons and lithium ions are associated. However, poor cycling stability, large voltage hysteresis, and low energy efficiency have been great challenges of conversion reaction. To address those issues, conversion-type electrode materials have been reformed via doping or substituting other elements. For example, iron fluorides (FeF 2 , FeF 3 ) have modified as iron oxyfluorides (FeF 1-x O x ), showing enhanced long-term stability. Furthermore, co-substituted (both anion and cation substituted) Fe 0.9 Co 0.1 OF (FeCoOF) was demonstrated excellent cycling stability. (capacity of 350 mAh g -1 at a current of 500 mA g -1 for 1000 cycles). Substituting anion and cation in iron fluoride has been suggested as an effective method to achieve better reversibility but understanding of lithiation reactions in co-substituted FeCoOF is not clear. This work takes advantage of ex-situ/ in-situ synchrotron X-ray based techniques and transmission electron microscopy to elucidate structural changes with lithium ion, which may provide fundamental insights into modifying conversion-type materials. Figure 1 presents discharge-charge curves and pair distribution function patterns acquired at each potential. As lithium ions were inserted, structural changes were noticed both at short-range and long-range. However, long-range ordering was nearly maintained even at 1 V, indicating absence of conversion reaction. Figure 2 shows lithiation induced structural evolution of a single FeCoOF nanorod observed in real time. As lithiation proceeds, the width of nanorods shows a stepwise increase, particularly A in figure 2d, which may indicate multiple steps of lithiation occur. Considering that conversion reaction takes place around 2 V in FeF 3 , co-substitution Co and O into iron fluoride may change thermodynamic features of lithiation reactions by lowering the initiation potential for conversion reaction. Instead, phase transformations occur at long-range order, which may help maintaining structural integrity during operation, eventually, achieving cycling stability.

Strategic Employee Development in The Government Sector

As with many other U.S. agencies, succession planning is becoming a critical need for NASA. The primary drivers include (a) NASA's higher-than-average aged workforce with approximately 50% of employees eligible for retirement within 5 years; and (b) employees who need better developmental conversations to increase morale and retention. This problem is particularly concerning for Safety & Mission Assurance (S&MA) organizations since they traditionally rely on more experienced engineers and specialists to perform their organizations' functions. In response to this challenge, the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) S&MA organization created the Strategic Employee Development (SED) program. The SED program's goal is to provide a proactive method to counter the primary drivers by creating a deeper "bench strength" and providing a more comprehensive developmental feedback experience for the employee. The SED is a new succession planning framework that enables customization to any organization, and in this case, specifically for an S&MA organization. This is accomplished via the identification of key positions, the corresponding critical competencies, and a process to help managers have relevant and meaningful development conversations with the workforce. As a result of the SED, several tools and products were created that allows management to make better strategic workforce decisions. Although there are opportunities for improvement for the SED program, the most important impact has been on the quality of developmental discussions for employees.

The Role of SnO2 Processing on Ionic Distribution in Double-Cation-Double Halide Perovskites

Moving toward a future of efficient, accessible, and less carbon-reliant energy devices has been at the forefront of energy research innovations for the past 30 years. Metal-halide perovskite (MHP) thin films have gained significant attention due to their flexibility of device applications and tunable capabilities for improving power conversion efficiency. Serving as a gateway to optimize device performance, consideration must be given to chemical synthesis processing techniques. Therefore, how does common substrate processing techniques influence the behavior of MHP phenomena such as ion migration and strain? Here, we demonstrate how a hybrid approach of chemical bath deposition (CBD) and nanoparticle SnO2 substrate processing significantly improves the performance of (FAPbI3)0.97(MAPbBr3)0.03 by reducing micro-strain in the SnO2 lattice, allowing distribution of K+ from K-Cl treatment of substrates to passivate defects formed at the interface and produce higher current in light and dark environments. X-ray diffraction reveals differences in lattice strain behavior with respect to SnO2 substrate processing methods. Through use of conductive atomic force microscopy (c-AFM), conductivity is measured spatially with MHP morphology, showing higher generation of current in both light and dark conditions for films with hybrid processing. Additionally, time-of-flight secondary ionization mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) observed the distribution of K+ at the perovskite/SnO2 interface, indicating K+ passivation of defects to improve the power conversion efficiency (PCE) and device stability. We show how understanding the role of ion distribution at the SnO2 and perovskite interface can help reduce the creating of defects and promote a more efficient MHP device.

Decreasing the Overpotential of Aprotic Li-CO 2 Batteries with the In-Plane Alloy Structure in Ultrathin 2D Ru-Based Nanosheets

We report the aprotic Li-CO 2 battery is emerging as a promising energy storage technology with the capability of CO 2 fixation and conversion. However, its practical applications are still impeded by the large overpotential. Herein, the general synthesis of a series of ultrathin 2D Ru-M (M = Co, Ni, and Cu) nanosheets by a facile one-pot solvothermal method is reported. As a proof-of-concept application, the representative RuCo nanosheets are used as the cathode catalysts for Li-CO 2 batteries, which demonstrate a low charge voltage of 3.74 V, a small overpotential of 0.94 V, and hence a high energy efficiency of 75%. Ex/in situ studies and density functional theory calculations reveal that the excellent catalytic performance of RuCo nanosheets originates from the enhanced adsorption toward Li and CO 2 during discharge as well as the elevated electron interaction with Li 2 CO 3 during charge by the in-plane RuCo alloy structure. This work indicates the feasibility of boosting the electrochemical performance of Li-CO 2 batteries by in-plane metal alloy sites of ultrathin 2D alloy nanomaterials.

Fluorescence lifetime measurements using photon pair correlations generated via spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC)

We have used photon pair correlations generated via spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC) to measure the fluorescence lifetime of the organic dye rhodamine 6 G, demonstrating that fluorescence lifetime measurements can be achieved using a continuous wave (CW) laser, without pulsed or modulated lasers. Our entangled photon method, quantum fluorescence lifetime (Q-FL) measurements, uses one photon to excite fluorescence and the resulting fluorescence photon is timed and referenced to the arrival time of the other entangled photon. Thus, we can exploit the short timescale of photon pair correlations to conduct experiments that are typically carried out with pulsed lasers and we show that the inherent timing of the photons is fast enough to resolve the nanosecond scale fluorescence lifetime of the sample. This measurement paves the way towards using the time correlations of entangled photons for fluorescence imaging; capitalizing on the presence of fast, sub-100 ps correlations that have not been demonstrated classically.

Snap-Through Buckling Pressure Prediction of Spherical Caps: A Comparison of Analytical, Implicit, and Explicit Methods

Snap-through buckling is a nonlinear and dynamic instability that occurs in curved shell structures such as domes, pressure vessels, and aerospace panels. Unlike classical linear buckling, it involves a sudden transition between equilibrium states caused by geometric nonlinearity and rapid strain-to-kinetic energy conversion (Timoshenko & Gere, 1961; Budiansky & Roth, 1962). This study investigates the snap-through behavior of thin spherical caps using both implicit and explicit solvers in ANSYS Workbench. While implicit analysis accurately captures quasi-static response, it struggles with convergence near instability. In contrast, explicit LS-DYNA simulation naturally handles the nonlinear dynamic event with minimal tuning and computational cost.

Preparation of a uranium monocarbide anode and electrochemical characterization in molten LiCl-KCl-UCl 3

Porous uranium carbide (UC) pellets possessing moderate electrical conductivity were synthesized by reaction of UO 2 with graphite at temperatures up to 1550°C under rough vacuum. Conversions as high as 98% were achieved at soak times of 2-4 hours. The electrochemistry of the UC pellets in molten LiCl-KCl-6.5 wt% UCl 3 was explored using a variety of techniques including DC polarization methods, cyclic voltammetry, chronopotentiometry and bulk electrolysis. Here, the electrode reaction for anodic dissolution was found to be kinetically controlled by dissociation of UC to a transition state complex that was hypothesized to consist of a uranium atom partially complexed by chloride ions. Precise measurements of current efficiencies using chronopotentiometry indicated upper limits of 90.9 ± 3.4% and 98.3 +1.7/-3.7% for anode and cathode, respectively, when operating at anodic overpotentials near +300 mV. Bulk electrolysis of a UC pellet performed by passing 98% of the theoretical charge resulted in nearly complete recovery of its uranium content as highly pure metal at the cathode.

Low-Pressure Diffusion Bonding of Vanadium to Commercially Pure Titanium and Ti-6Al-4V

Modern technology increasingly requires components to be made from specific high-performance materials. To support complex multi-metal structures, a variety of techniques are required to join dissimilar metal parts with precise shapes. This study evaluates vacuum diffusion bonding as a method for joining titanium and vanadium, focusing on both pure titanium and the common alloy Ti-6Al-4V. We employ modest pressure provided by a weight and simple surface preparation to simulate the most commercially applicable process. Here, we show that Ti-6Al-4V alloy bonds readily to V, forming a continuous, clearly defined interdiffusion layer with predictable kinetics. Conversely, commercially pure Ti forms a crack-prone bond with V that fails to improve at higher bonding temperatures or longer times. We attribute this failure to the concentration of stress caused by the ß-to-α phase transformation in Ti. The contrasting bonding efficacy between pure Ti and the alloy provides insight into the crystallographic interactions that occur at the interface during bonding and cooling. These results provide surprising insight into a new method for bonding Ti alloys to V and possibly other metals that share the body-centered cubic crystal structure.

The core-shell-structured NaYF4:Er3+,Yb3+@NaYF4:Eu3+ nanocrystals as dual-mode and multifunctional luminescent mechanism for high-performance dye-sensitized solar cells

Highlights: • NaYF{sub 4}:Er{sup 3+},Yb{sup 3+}@NaYF{sub 4}:Eu{sup 3+} nanocrystals have been successfully prepared. • Higher quality NYFEY@NYFE with dual-mode emission was demonstrated. • The conversion efficiency of the DSSCs with NYFEY@NYFE reaches 7.37%. • Up-conversion luminescence was completed by Er{sup 3+} ions from infrared to visible light. • Down-conversion luminescence was fulfilled by Eu{sup 3+} ions from ultraviolet to visible light. - Abstract: The core-shell-structured NaYF{sub 4}:Er{sup 3+},Yb{sup 3+}@NaYF{sub 4}:Eu{sup 3+} (NYFEY@NYFE) nanocrystals with dual-mode emission have been satisfactorily prepared through a solvothermal method utilizing oleic acid and octadecene. From the emission spectra of dual-mode luminescent nanocrystals, it could be seen that nanocrystals consisted of two disparate units, one supplying up-converting luminescence excited with the 980 nm laser and the other providing down-converting luminescence by means of ultraviolet excitation, which are assigned to {sup 4}S{sub (3/2)} → {sup 4}I{sub (15/2)} transitions of Er{sup 3+} and {sup 5}D{sub 0} → {sup 7}F{sub 2} transitions of Eu{sup 3+}, separately. And then, a novel photoelectrode structure via introducing dual-mode luminescent materials was proposed. The photoelectric conversion efficiency of DSSCs with NYFEY@NYFE photoelectrode attains 7.37%, raised by a factor of 1.37 in comparison to that of the DSSCs without Eu{sup 3+} and Er{sup 3+} doping. The preparation of dual-mode NYFEY@NYFE not only has great significance to the study of material itself but its application in DSSCs, and can be also applied to other types of solar cells.

Seed‐Assisted Growth for Scalable and Efficient Perovskite Solar Modules

Perovskite solar modules (PSMs) have shown remarkable photovoltaic potentials, but they still suffer from large power conversion efficiency (PCE) loss on scale‐up and instability due to inferior uniformity and crystallization over large areas. Herein, the scalable production of efficient and stable PSMs using a suite of all‐scalable fabrication methods featuring a two‐step blade/dip‐coating approach to deposit the perovskite absorber layer is demonstrated. Rubidium chloride is introduced to embed (PbI 2 ) 2 RbCl complex seeds in the first‐deposited PbI 2 precursor, which assists in uniform crystallization of the perovskite layer with high crystallinity and reduced defect density over large areas. Following the optimization of RbCl additives, a champion PSM with 17.9% PCE on a 7.6 × 7.6 cm 2 substrate with a 37 cm 2 aperture area is achieved. Moreover, the RbCl‐incorporated PSMs demonstrate excellent reproducibility and stability under continuous 1 sun illumination. This work shows that the two‐step blade/dip coating is a promising method for producing high‐efficiency and stable PSMs on an industrially relevant scale.

Toward computing bounds for Ramsey numbers using quantum annealing

Quantum annealing is a powerful tool for solving and approximating combinatorial optimization problems, such as graph partitioning, community detection, centrality, routing problems, and more. In this paper we explore the use of quantum annealing as a tool for use in exploring combinatorial mathematics research problems. We consider the monochromatic triangle problem and the Ramsey number problem, both examples of graph coloring. Conversion to quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) form is required to run on quantum hardware. While the monochromatic triangle problem is quadratic by nature, the Ramsey number problem requires the use of order reduction methods for a quadratic formulation. The goal is to provide a method for producing special colorings of graphs which if successful would provide lower bounds for certain Ramsey numbers. We discuss implementations, limitations, and results when running on the D-Wave Advantage quantum annealer.

Redox Couples Control Band Bending, Photovoltage, and Quasi-Fermi Levels in Tungsten Oxide (WO 3 ) Photoanodes

Tungsten oxide (WO 3 ) is a well-known photoanode and photocatalyst for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water oxidation. Because the compound has a deep valence band, it can facilitate the oxygen evolution reaction without added cocatalysts, and it can drive the oxidation of species with much higher electrochemical potentials, including the conversion of water to hydrogen peroxide, sulfate to persulfate, and iodate to meta-periodate. Here, we use the liquid vibrating Kelvin probe surface photovoltage (liquid VK-SPV) technique in combination with open circuit potential (OCP) and photoelectrochemical (PEC) scans to assess the possibility of reaching such oxidizing potentials in aqueous electrolytes and at open circuit. Here, this is done by mapping the quasi-Fermi levels of electrons and holes at the interfaces as a function of the light intensity. Nanostructured WO 3 photoelectrodes for this purpose were fabricated by thermal annealing of a tungstic acid solution on fluorine-doped tin oxide. Electrochemical measurements are conducted at open circuit and 400 nm LED light illumination in electrolytes containing fast (O 2 /H 2 O 2 ), slow (O 2 /H 2 O), and very oxidizing (NaIO 4 /NaIO 3 ) redox couples. Photovoltage values scale with the light intensity and with the built-in potential for each redox couple and reach values up to 0.61 V under 20 mW cm –2 illumination for the NaIO 4 electrolyte. This shows that the photoelectrodes behave like Schottky-type diodes whose maximum possible energy output is determined mainly by the built-in voltage of each junction. For slow redox couples, the quasi-Fermi level of the holes increases with light intensity due to hole accumulation at the WO 3 –liquid interface. For example, for the O 2 /H 2 O electrolyte, interfacial hole accumulation and removal occur on the 90–300 s time scale. For the fast hole acceptor H 2 O 2 , on the other hand, the quasi-Fermi level of the photoholes is pinned to the electrochemical potential of the O 2 /H 2 O 2 couple. This limits the energy conversion efficiency of the electrode. Overall, these results reveal the influence of charge transfer thermodynamics and kinetics on the photovoltage of WO 3 . Furthermore, the work further establishes VK-SPV as a contactless method to observe the photovoltage, carrier dynamics, and quasi-Fermi levels of semiconductor-liquid junctions.

Dry electrodes with a printed cellulose–graphene ink for low-profile strain sensors in electromyography

Dihydrolevoglucosenone, commonly known as Cyrene, is a renewable and fully biodegradable cellulose-waste derived, environmentally friendly solvent, presenting a non-toxic alternative to N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP). Currently, solution-based processing of graphene and other similar van der Waals solids favor toxic solvents such as NMP, limiting their use for biosensing. However, with the use of Cyrene, bio-compatible printable devices are possible, and studies have already demonstrated its use in temperature and other biosensing methods through screen-printing. Screen-printing unfortunately often requires masks that constrain the minimum acquirable feature size to be above hundreds of centimeters and wastes material, adding to process complexity and cost. Conversely, inkjet-printing is an attractive alternative for the maskless patterning of hierarchically assembled structures, with micron length scales attainable. Graphene's high conductivity positions it ideally for long-wear sensors such as dry electrodes or respiration monitors. Here, we demonstrate the potential of Cyrene-based graphene inks through few-layer inkjet printing on flexible substrates for the first time, to produce non-toxic conductors toward a strain-mediated mechanism for biosensing, used to detect bodily motion for wearable electronics. The challenges overcome in this study include engineering ink chemistry and printing parameters such that Cyrene's relatively high viscosity compared to typical inkjet solvents, still allows for droplet ejection in a conventional material printer, yielding well-resolved clean line-edges in contrast to other solvents that exhibit diffuse line-edges possibly from stray droplets and ink-splashing. Temperature-dependent transport measurements on the inkjet-printed Cyrene-based graphene films showed the conductivity to be largely temperature-invariant but at lower temperatures below 100 K, conductivity decreased, likely as a result of increased inter-membrane separation arising from thermal contraction. Additionally, temperature-dependent Raman spectroscopy showed the red-shift in the G-band, 2D-band and D-band peaks, as temperature increased. As a result, by validating flexion motion detection of the proximal interphalangeal joint demonstrated in this study, our work is the first of its kind to successfully additively manufacture inkjet-printed Cyrene-based graphene strain sensors on flexible substrates for bio-sensing and wearables.
