Contamination, Transportation or Transmutation in LENR Material Analyses

LENR experiments using various loading and triggering mechanisms rely on a variety of elemental and isotopic assays to determine LENR effects. These assays include optical microscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (SEM/EDX), X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). All of these methods observe the surface of a material. By dissolving or vaporizing the sample, Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Element Spectroscopy (ICP-OES) can determine elemental composition (ppb) or with mass spectroscopy, isotopes (ICP/MS). One can use a focused ion beam (FIB) to cut open a sample and observe the “cut” with either SEM/EDX, or Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectroscopy (TOF-SIMS). High Purity Gamma Ray Spectroscopy (HPGe) and alpha/ beta Liquid Scintillator spectroscopy can be used. We’ve employed these assay methods in our NASA GRC research under both the Advanced Energy Conversion and Lattice Confinement Fusion Projects. However, there are limitations associated with each of these methods ranging from handling contamination, instrumental limitations including sensitivity and field of view, and sample preparation.

Characterization of 4H <000-1> Silicon Carbide Films Grown by Solvent-Laser Heated Floating Zone

Commercially available bulk silicon carbide (SiC) has a high number (>2000/sq cm) of screw dislocations (SD) that have been linked to degradation of high-field power device electrical performance properties. Researchers at the NASA Glenn Research Center have proposed a method to mass-produce significantly higher quality bulk SiC. In order for this bulk growth method to become reality, growth of long single crystal SiC fibers must first be achieved. Therefore, a new growth method, Solvent-Laser Heated Floating Zone (Solvent-LHFZ), has been implemented. While some of the initial Solvent-LHFZ results have recently been reported, this paper focuses on further characterization of grown crystals and their growth fronts. To this end, secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) depth profiles, cross section analysis by focused ion beam (FIB) milling and mechanical polishing, and orientation and structural characterization by x-ray transmission Laue diffraction patterns and x-ray topography were used. Results paint a picture of a chaotic growth front, with Fe incorporation dependant on C concentration.

Redox Mechanism in Na-Ion Battery Cathodes Probed by Advanced Soft X-Ray Spectroscopy

A Na-ion battery (NIB) device is a promising solution for mid-/large-scale energy storage, with the advantages of material abundance, low cost, and environmental benignity. To improve the NIB capacity and retainability, extensive efforts have been put into the developments of NIB electrode materials. The redox activities of the transition metal (TM)-based NIB electrodes are critical in defining the capacity and stability. Here, we provide a comprehensive review on recent studies of the redox mechanisms of NIB cathodes through synchrotron-based soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy (sXAS) and mapping of resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (mRIXS). These soft X-ray techniques are direct and effective tools to fingerprint the TM-3d and O-p states with both bulk and surface sensitivities. Particularly, 3d TM L-edge sXAS has been used to quantify the cationic redox contributions to the electrochemical property; however, it suffers from lineshape distortion for the bulk sensitive signals in some scenarios. With the new dimension of information along the emitted photon energy, mRIXS can address the distortion issue of in TM-L sXAS; moreover, it also breaks through the limitation of conventional sXAS on detecting unconventional TM and O states, e.g., Mn(I) in NIB anode and oxidized oxygen in NIB cathodes. The mRIXS fingerprint of the oxidized oxygen state enables the detection of the reversibility of the oxygen redox reaction through the evolution of feature intensity upon electrochemical cycling and thus clarifies various misunderstandings in our conventional wisdom. We conclude that, with mRIXS established as a powerful tool, its potential and power will continue to be explored for characterizing novel chemical states in NIB electrodes.

Determination of nuclear charge radius by extreme-ultraviolet spectroscopy of Na-like ions

We report on a method for determining the absolute nuclear charge radius of high-𝑍 elements using extreme-ultraviolet spectroscopy of highly charged Na-like ions in tandem with highly accurate atomic structure calculations of transition energy differences. The application of this method has reduced the nuclear charge radius uncertainty of 191 Ir by a factor of 8 from the currently accepted literature value, with a recently reported charge radius of 5.435(12) fm. The result reduces the charge radius uncertainty along the full Ir isotopic chain when combined with prior optical isotope shift measurements. The technique utilizes only a few million ions stored in an ion trap, which should apply to measurements with small quantities of radioactive nuclei.

The fundamental mechanisms of abrasion and wear and the deformation of Si by a diamond in various fluid environments are described. The efficiency of solar cells made from EFG ribbon and Semix Inc. material is reported.

Review of model sensor studies on Pd/SnO2(110) surfaces

Studies performed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology on the model gas sensor system, Pd/SnO2(110), are reviewed. Adsorption and interfacial effects play a primary role in the gas sensing process, as they do in catalysis. For this reason, researchers have used a variety of surface sensitive techniques in the research, including x ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopies (XPS and UPS), low energy electron diffraction (LEED), and ion scattering spectroscopy (ISS). By combining these complementary techniques with in situ gas response (conductance) measurements, researchers were able to correlate directly sensor activity with the composition and structure of the Pd/SnO2 interface. Although the intent of this work is to develop an understanding of gas sensing mechanisms, its relevance to Pt/SnO2 catalytic systems is obvious.

Infrared, Submillimeter, and RadioAstronomy Program Astophysics Division

The object of my research for the NASA grant NAGW-4769 was to observe infrared spectra of molecular ions with special astrophysical interest in plasmas both in the laboratory and in space. Progress made during the period from September 1995 to September 1996 is summarized in the following: 1. Detection of Interstellar H3(+) The discovery of interstellar H3(+) through its mid-infrared absorption spectrum was by far the most inspiring development during this fiscal year. H3(+), the simplest stable polyatomic system, has been postulated to play the central role in the ion-neutral reaction scheme of interstellar chemistry, but its presence had not been directly observed in spite of intensive searches by several groups. 2. Observation of High Revibrational States of H3(+). The initial discovery of H3(+) in the Jovian aurora region was made through the identification of the 2(nu)(sub 2)(sup 2) approaches O overtone band indicating the population of H3(+) in high revibration state. 3. Observation of Ortho-Para H3(+) selection rules in plasma chemistry. Celection rules that relate quantum states before and ufter various processes are fascinating subject based on the symmetry argument. 4. Spectroscopy of other ions. Spectroscopy of carbocations ch3(+), CH2(+), C2H3(+) and C2H2(+) has been continued.

Indigenous Carbonaceous Matter in the Nakhla Mars Meteorite

Detailed microanalysis of the Martian meteorite Nakhla has shown there are morphologically distinct carbonaceous features spatially associated with low-T aqueous alteration phases including salts and id-dingsite. A comprehensive suite of analytical instrumentation including optical microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, focused ion beam (FIB) microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), two-step laser mass spectrometry (mu-L(sup 2)MS), laser mu-Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS) are being used to characterize the carbonaceous matter and host mineralogy. The search for carbonaceous matter on Mars has proved challenging. Viking Landers failed to unambiguously detect simple organics at either of the two landing sites although the Martian surface is estimated to have acquired at least 10(exp15) kg of C as a consequence of meteoritic accretion over the last several Ga. The dearth of organics at the Martian surface has been attributed to various oxidative processes including UV photolysis and peroxide activity. Consequently, investigations of Martian organics need to be focused on the sub-surface regolith where such surface processes are either severely attenuated or absent. Fortuitously since Martian meteorites are derived from buried regolith materials they provide a unique opportunity to study Martian organic geochemistry.

Copper Reductase Activity and Free Radical Chemistry by Cataract-Associated Human Lens γ-Crystallins

Cataracts are caused by high-molecular weight aggregates of human eye lens proteins that scatter light, causing lens opacity. Metal ions have emerged as important potential players in the etiology of cataract disease, as human lens γ-crystallins are susceptible to metal-induced aggregation. Here, the interaction of Cu 2+ ions with γD-, γC-, and γS- crystallins, the three most abundant γ-crystallins in the lens, has been evaluated. Cu 2+ ions induced non-amyloid aggregation in all three proteins. Solution turbidimetry, SDS-PAGE, circular dichroism and differential scanning calorimetry showed that the mechanism for Cu-induced aggregation involves: i) loss of beta-sheet structure in the N-terminal domain; ii) decreased thermal and kinetic stability; iii) formation of metal-bridged species; and iv) formation of disulfide-bridged dimers. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) revealed two distinct Cu 2+ binding sites in each protein. Spin quantitation demonstrated reduction of γ-crystallin-bound Cu 2+ ions to Cu + under aerobic conditions, while X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) confirmed the presence of linear or trigonal Cu + binding sites in γ-crystallins. Our EPR and XAS studies revealed that γ-crystallins’ Cu 2+ reductase activity yields a protein-based free radical that is likely a Tyr-based species in human γD-crystallin. This unique free radical chemistry carried out by distinct redox-active Cu sites in human lens γ-crystallins likely contributes to the mechanism of copper-induced aggregation. Finally, in the context of an aging human lens, γ-crystallins could be acting, not only as structural proteins, but also as key players for metal and redox homeostasis.

Uncovering the binding nature of thiocyanate in contact ion pairs with lithium ions

Ion pair formation is a fundamental molecular process that occurs in a wide variety of systems, including electrolytes, biological systems, and materials. In solution, the thiocyanate (SCN–) anion interacts with cations to form contact ion pairs (CIPs). Due to its ambidentate nature, thiocyanate can bind through either its sulfur or nitrogen atoms, depending on the solvent. This study focuses on the binding nature of thiocyanate with lithium ions as a function of the solvents using FTIR, 2D infrared spectroscopy (2DIR) spectroscopies, and theoretical calculations. The study reveals that the SCN– binding mode (S or N end) in CIPs can be identified through 2DIR spectroscopy but not by linear IR spectroscopy. Linear IR spectroscopy shows that the CN stretch frequencies are too close to one another to separate N- and S-bound CIPs. Moreover, the IR spectrum shows that the S–C stretch presents different frequencies for the salt in different solvents, but it is related to the anion speciation rather than to its binding mode. A similar trend is observed for the anion bend. 2DIR spectra show different dynamics for N-bound and S-bound thiocyanate. In particular, the frequency–frequency correlation function (FFCF) dynamics extracted from the 2DIR spectra have a single picosecond exponential decay for N-bound thiocyanate and a biexponential decay for S-bound thiocyanate, consistent with the binding mode of the anion. Lastly, it is also observed that the binding mode also affects the line shape parameters, probably due to the different molecular mechanisms of the FFCF for N- and S-bound CIPs.

Synthesis, Electronic Properties and Reactivity of [B 12 X 11 (NO 2 )] 2– (X=F–I) Dianions

Nitro-functionalized undecahalogenated closo-dodecaborates [B 12 X 11 (NO 2 )] 2– were synthesized in high purities and characterized by NMR, IR, and Raman spectroscopy, single crystal X-diffraction, mass spectrometry, and gas-phase ion vibrational spectroscopy. The NO 2 substituent leads to an enhanced electronic and electrochemical stability compared to the parent perhalogenated [B 12 X 12 ] 2– (X=F–I) dianions evidenced by photoelectron spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and quantum-chemical calculations. The stabilizing effect decreases from X=F to X=I. Thermogravimetric measurements of the salts indicate the loss of the nitric oxide radical (NO . ). The homolytic NO . elimination from the dianion under very soft collisional excitation in gas-phase ion experiments results in the formation of the radical [B 12 X 11 O] 2–. . Theoretical investigations suggest that the loss of NO . proceeds via the rearrangement product [B 12 X 11 (ONO)] 2– . The O-bonded nitrosooxy structure is thermodynamically more stable than the N-bonded nitro structure and its formation by radical recombination of [B 12 X 11 O] 2–. and NO . is demonstrated.

Infrared spectroscopy of the syn -methyl-substituted Criegee intermediate: A combined experimental and theoretical study

An IR–vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) ion-dip spectroscopy method is utilized to examine the IR spectrum of acetaldehyde oxide (CH3CHOO) in the overtone CH stretch (2νCH) spectral region. IR activation creates a depletion of the ground state population that reduces the VUV photoionization signal on the parent mass channel. IR activation of the more stable and populated syn-CH3CHOO conformer results in rapid unimolecular decay to OH + vinoxy products and makes the most significant contribution to the observed spectrum. The resultant IR–VUV ion-dip spectrum of CH3CHOO is similar to that obtained previously for syn-CH3CHOO using IR action spectroscopy with UV laser-induced fluorescence detection of OH products. The prominent IR features at 5984 and 6081 cm−1 are also observed using UV + VUV photoionization of OH products. Complementary theoretical calculations utilizing a general implementation of second-order vibrational perturbation theory provide new insights on the vibrational transitions that give rise to the experimental spectrum in the overtone CH stretch region. The introduction of physically motivated small shifts of the harmonic frequencies yields remarkably improved agreement between experiment and theory in the overtone CH stretch region. The prominent features are assigned as highly mixed states with contributions from two quanta of CH stretch and/or a combination of CH stretch with an overtone in mode 4. The generality of this approach is demonstrated by applying it to three different levels of electronic structure theory/basis sets, all of which provide spectra that are virtually indistinguishable despite showing large deviations prior to introducing the shifts to the harmonic frequencies.

Exploring the relationship between deposition method, microstructure, and performance of Nb/Si-based superconducting coplanar waveguide resonators

Superconducting quantum circuits (SQC) are one of the most promising hardware platforms for quantum computing, yet their performance is currently limited by the presence of various structural defects inside the circuit's structure. Despite impressive progress in the past decade, a precise understanding of the origin of these defects from various fabrication processes and their impact on coherence is still lacking. Here, in this study, we performed a comprehensive investigation on the microstructure, superconductivity, and resonator quality factor of Nb films deposited by high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) and direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering. A suite of characterization techniques, including electron microscopy with spectroscopy, secondary ion mass spectrometry, magneto-optical microscopy, and pump-probe reflectivity spectroscopy is used. We reveal that niobium (Nb) resonators fabricated using HiPIMS exhibit a smaller average grain size, thicker surface oxide with larger thickness variations (rougher surface), and a thicker amorphous Nb/Si interface layer compared to samples deposited by DC sputtering. We identified that the amorphous Nb oxides (mainly located at the Nb surface and along the grain boundaries) and Nb-Si amorphous layers (at the Nb/Si interface) are major and potential sources of two-level system (TLS), while off-stochiometric oxides and suboxides of Nb close to the surface, crystalline defects (i.e., dislocations at grain boundary, point defects introduced during deposition) are main contributors of non-TLS sources. Our findings clarify the relationship between different defects and coherence loss mechanisms, highlighting the importance of material microstructure control on performance optimization in SQC.

Influence of Surface Ligands on Energetics at FASnI 3 /C 60 Interfaces and Their Impact on Photovoltaic Performance

Interfacial chemistry and energetics significantly impact the performance of photovoltaic devices. In the case of Pb-containing organic metal halide perovskites, photoelectron spectroscopy has been used to determine the energetic alignment of frontier electronic energy levels at various interfaces present in the photovoltaic device. For the Sn-containing analogues, which are less toxic, no such measurements have been made. Through a combination of ultraviolet, inverse, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS, IPES, and XPS, respectively) measurements taken at varying thickness increments during stepwise deposition of C 60 on FASnI 3 , we present the first direct measurements of the frontier electronic energy levels across the FASnI 3 /C 60 interface. The results show band bending in both materials and transport gap widening in FASnI 3 at the interface with C 60 . The XPS results show that iodide diffuses into C 60 and results in n-doping of C 60 . This iodide diffusion out of FASnI 3 impacts the valence and conduction band energies of FASnI 3 more than the core levels, with the core level shifts displaying a different trend than the valence and conduction bands. Surface treatment of FASnI 3 with carboxylic acids and bulky ammonium substituted surface ligands results in slight alterations in the interfacial energetics, and all surface ligands result in similar or improved PV performance relative to the untreated devices. Finally, the greatest PV stability results from treatment with a fluorinated carboxylic acid derivative; however, iodide diffusion is still observed to occur with this surface ligand.

Low-Energy Sputtering Research

An experimental study is described to measure low-energy (less than 600 eV) sputtering yields of molybdenum with xenon ions using Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS) and secondary neutral mass spectroscopy (SNMS). An ion gun was used to generate the ion beam. The ion current density at the target surface was approximately 30 (micro)A/sq cm. For RBS measurements, the sputtered material was collected on a thin aluminum strip which was mounted on a semi-circular collector plate. The target was bombarded with 200 and 500 eV xenon ions at normal incidence. The differential sputtering yields were measured using the RBS method with 1 MeV helium ions. The differential yields were fitted with a cosine fitting function and integrated with respect to the solid angle to provide the total sputtering yields. The sputtering yields obtained using the RBS method are in reasonable agreement with those measured by other researchers using different techniques. For the SNMS measurements, 150 to 600 eV xenon ions were used at 50deg angle of incidence. The SNMS spectra were converted to sputtering yields for perpendicular incidence by normalizing SNMS spectral data at 500 eV with the yield measured by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry. Sputtering yields as well as the shape of the yield-energy curve obtained in this manner are in reasonable agreement with those measured by other researchers using different techniques. Sputtering yields calculated by using two semi-spherical formulations agree reasonably well with measured data. The isotopic composition of secondary ions were measured by bombarding copper with xenon ions at energies ranging from 100 eV to 1.5 keV. The secondary ion flux was found to be enriched in heavy isotopes at low incident ion energies. The heavy isotope enrichment was observed to decrease with increasing impact energy. Beyond 700 eV, light isotopes were sputtered preferentially with the enrichment remaining nearly constant.

Pt: Ti Diffusion Barrier, Interconnect, and Simultaneous Ohmic Contacts to n- and p-type 4H-SiC

We report the initial results of using co-sputtered Pt:Ti 80:20 at. % composition ratio metallization as a diffusion barrier against gold (Au) and oxygen (O), as an interconnect layer, as well as forming simultaneous ohmic contacts to n-and p-type 4H-SiC. Having a single conductor with such combined multi-functional attributes would appreciably reduce the fabrication costs, processing time and complexity that are inherent in the production of SiC based devices. Auger Electron Spectroscopy, Focused Ion Beam-assisted Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy analyses revealed no Au and O migration to the SiC contact surface and minimal diffusion through the Pt:Ti barrier layer after 15 minutes of exposure at 800 °C in atmosphere, thus offering potential long term stability of the ohmic contacts. Specific contact resistance values of 7 x 10(exp -5) and 7.4 x 10(exp -4) Ω-sq.cm were obtained on the n (N(sub d)=7 x 10(exp 18) per cu.cm and p (N(sub a)=2 x 10(exp 20) per cu. cm) -type 4H-SiC, respectively. The resistivity of 75 μΩ-cm was obtained for the Pt:Ti layer that was sandwiched between two SiO2 layers and annealed in pure O ambient up to 900 °C, which offers promise as a high temperature interconnect metallization.

How generic is iodide-tagging photoelectron spectroscopy: An extended investigation on the Gly· X - (Gly = glycine, X = Cl or Br) complexes

We report a joint negative ion photoelectron spectroscopy (NIPES) and quantum chemical computational study on glycine-chloride/bromide complexes (denoted Gly·X - , X = Cl/Br) in close comparison to the previously studied Gly·I - cluster ion. Combining experimental NIPE spectra and theoretical calculations, various Gly·X - complexes were found to adopt the same types of low-lying isomers, albeit with different relative energies. Despite more congested spectral profiles for Gly·Cl - and Gly·Br - , spectral assignments were accomplished with the guidance of the knowledge learned from Gly·I - , where a larger spin–orbit splitting of iodine afforded well-resolved, recognizable spectral peaks. Three canonical plus one zwitterionic isomer for Gly·Cl - and four canonical conformers for Gly·Br - were experimentally identified and characterized in contrast to the five canonical ones observed for Gly·I - under similar experimental conditions. Taken together, this study investigates both genericity and variations in binding patterns for the complexes composed of glycine and various halides, demonstrating that iodide-tagging is an effective spectroscopic means to unravel diverse ion-molecule binding motifs for cluster anions with congested spectral bands by substituting the respective ion with iodide.

Networks of electrochemical oxidation of common lithium-ion Battery solvents revealed by NMR spectroscopy

Raising the upper cutoff voltage of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) to increase energy density often exceeds the electrolyte’s anodic stability limit, accelerating degradation and creating a major durability tradeoff. Designing electrolytes that can sustain long-term high-voltage cycling requires a clearer understanding of the fundamental mechanisms occurring when commercial carbonate solvents oxidize. Here, to this end, simplified single-salt, single-solvent formulations of LiClO 4 and LiPF 6 in dimethyl carbonate (DMC), ethylene carbonate (EC), or ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) were anodically electrolyzed on inert electrodes and monitored for extended periods of time using 1 H, 13 C, 19 F, and 35 Cl nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The controlled environment of the experiments, coupled to the unique sensitivity of NMR, unveiled novel metastable intermediates and the formation of branching networks of products with temporal evolution. Oxidation of the pristine solvent primarily proceeds through a radical pathway that also produces highly reactive protons but faces competition from a second pathway involving a radical carbocation intermediate. In all cases, the intermediates follow a variety of downstream pathways that can intersect with each other. The concomitant network of reactions represents a significant increase in complexity compared to common descriptions in the literature, yet, critically, it helps explain the wide range of products typically identified in electrolyte oxidation in complete cells. The results highlight the need for refocusing fundamental research on anodic stability to analysis of the hierarchy of reaction networks to better inform efforts to mitigate the detrimental effects on battery performance, including prevention and harvesting of proton and radical products.
