  • Finkelstein, Amy (MIT Press, 2009-08)
    This paper examines whether the salience of a tax system affects equilibrium tax rates. I analyze how tolls change after toll facilities adopt electronic toll collection (ETC); drivers are substantially less aware of tolls ...
  • Dextras, Philip; Payer, Kristofor Robert; Burg, Thomas P.; Shen, Wenjiang; Wang, Ying-Chih; Han, Jongyoon; Manalis, Scott R. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2011-02)
    We report on a fabrication and packaging process for a microsystem consisting of a mass-based protein detector and a fully integrated preconcentrator. Preconcentration of protein is achieved by means of a nanofluidic ...
  • Ross, Caroline A.; Kimerling, Lionel C.; Hu, Juejun; Bi, Lei (Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2010-01)
    We report two novel strategies to integrate magneto-optical oxides on oxidized silicon and SOI platforms based on strip-loaded waveguide structures. By using conventional waveguide fabrication and thin film deposition ...
  • del Alamo, Jesus A.; Wu, Joyce H. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2010-05)
    We developed a through-substrate copper-damascene interconnect technology in silicon with minimal impedance. Via impedance was extracted using parameter measurements at 50 GHz that were matched to simple circuit models. ...
  • Daniilidis, N.; Narayanan, S.; Moller, S. A.; Clark, R.; Lee, T. E.; Leek, P. J.; Wallraff, A.; Schulz, Stephan Alf; Schmidt-Kaler, F.; Haffner, H. (Institute of Physics Publishing, 2011-01)
    We report heating rate measurements in a microfabricated gold-on-sapphire surface electrode ion trap with a trapping height of approximately 240 μm. Using the Doppler recooling method, we characterize the trap heating rates ...
  • Schattenburg, Mark Lee; Ahn, Minseung; Heilmann, Ralf K. (The International Society for Optical Engineering, 2008-07)
    We have developed a new type of soft x-ray diffraction grating. This critical-angle transmission (CAT) grating combines the advantages of traditional transmission gratings (low mass, extremely relaxed alignment and flatness ...
  • Herrault, Florian; Yen, Bernard C.; Ji, Chang-Hyeon; Spakovszky, Zoltan S.; Lang, Jeffrey H.; Allen, Mark G. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2010-02)
    This paper focuses on the design, fabrication, and characterization of silicon-packaged permanent-magnet (PM) microgenerators. The use of silicon packaging favors fine control on shape and dimensions in batch fabrication ...
  • Bright, V. M.; Anderson, D. Z.; Salim, E. A.; Chuang, H. C.; Vuletic, Vladan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-10)
    This paper describes the design and fabrication of an atom chip for atom tunneling experiments. A fabrication process was developed that uses a combination of UV-optical and Electron-Beam lithography to pattern micrometer ...
  • Perreault, David J.; Neugebauer, Timothy C.; Pierquet, Brandon J. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-03)
    This paper outlines a fabrication method for integrated filter elements. An integrated filter element is a three- (or more) terminal device comprising a capacitor and coupled air-core magnetic windings, in which the magnetic ...
  • Mescher, Mark J.; Swan, Erin Leary; Fiering, Jason; Holmboe, Maria E.; Sewell, William F.; Kujawa, Sharon G.; McKenna, Michael J.; Borenstein, Jeffrey T. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-06)
    In this paper, we describe low-permeability components of a microfluidic drug delivery system fabricated with versatile micromilling and lamination techniques. The fabrication process uses laminate sheets which are machined ...
  • Bick, Alexander G.; Shin, H.; Brigham, M.; Khademhosseini, Ali; Vu, M.; Gomez, E. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-05)
    Culturing cells in a vascularized three-dimensional (3D) hydrogel scaffold has significant applications ranging from tissue engineering to drug discovery. In many large 3D scaffolds, mass transport and nutrient exchange ...
  • Miller, John R.; Hatfield, Daniel R.; Martovetsky, Nicolai N.; Schultz, Joel H.; Gung, Chen-yu; Kim, Ji-Hyun (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-07)
    A pair of 3.5 m long ITER TF size straight conductors has been fabricated into a conductor short sample and submitted to the SULTAN facility at CRPP for cold test. The sample used a triplet-based cabling pattern in one leg ...
  • McKinley, Gareth H.; Choi, Wonjae; Cohen, Robert E.; Tuteja, Anish; Chhatre, Shreerang S.; Mabry, Joseph M. (Wiley-VCH, 2009-03)
    A simple “dip-coating” process that imbues oleophobicity to various surfaces that inherently possess re-entrant texture, such as commercially available fabrics, is reported. These dip-coated fabric surfaces exhibit reversible, ...
  • Seah, Boon-Siew; Bhowmick, Sourav S.; Dewey, C. Forbes (Oxford University Press, 2012-08)
    Motivation: The availability of large-scale curated protein interaction datasets has given rise to the opportunity to investigate higher level organization and modularity within the protein–protein interaction (PPI) network ...
  • Bauer, Christian W.; Tackmann, Frank; Walsh, Jonathan R.; Zuberi, Saba (American Physical Society, 2012-04)
    Multijet cross sections at the LHC and Tevatron are sensitive to several distinct kinematic energy scales. When measuring the dijet invariant mass mjj between two signal jets produced in association with other jets or weak ...
  • Tackmann, Frank; Waalewijn, Wouter Jonathan; Stewart, Iain (American Physical Society, 2010-05)
    We study proton-(anti)proton collisions at the LHC or Tevatron in the presence of experimental restrictions on the hadronic final state and for generic parton momentum fractions. At the scale Q of the hard interaction, ...
  • Pridgen, Eric; Molnar, Linda K.; Farokhzad, Omid C.; Alexis, Frank (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2008-08)
    Nanoparticle (NP) drug delivery systems (5−250 nm) have the potential to improve current disease therapies because of their ability to overcome multiple biological barriers and releasing a therapeutic load in the optimal ...
  • Gilbertson, Eric W.; Hover, Franz S.; Colina, Ed (American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2010-06)
    Gas-lifted oil wells are susceptible to failure through malfunction of gas lift valves. This is a growing concern as offshore wells are drilled thousands of meters below the ocean floor in extreme temperature and pressure ...
  • Evans, David S.; Schmalensee, Richard (Walter de Gruyter, 2010-12)
    Platform businesses add value by facilitating interactions between customers who are attracted in part by network externalities. Two-sided platform businesses with low costs of reversing participation status have become ...
  • Jagabathula, Srikanth; Shah, Devavrat (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011-03)
    We consider the problem of designing a fair scheduling algorithm for discrete-time constrained queuing networks. Each queue has dedicated exogenous packet arrivals. There are constraints on which queues can be served ...
