Project Overview: Exciton-polaritons form upon strong coupling between electronic excitations of a material and photonic states of a surrounding microcavity. In organic semiconductors the special nature of excited states leads to particularly strong coupling and facilitates condensation of exciton-polaritons at room temperature, which may lead to electrically pumped organic polariton lasers. It has been demonstrated [...]
The Impact of Modified High Density Polyethylene on Customer Critical-to-Quality (CTQs) Metrics
rehaas2022-05-26T15:14:36-05:00Project Overview: Amcor Flexibles North America has pledged to develop more sustainable packaging that is recyclable or reusable by 2025. The blown film process, used to produce polyolefin-based film, is the most widely used conversion technique for film applications. Originally, mono-layer dies were used, but it is now very common for blown film to be [...]
Development of Cold Spray Process to Mitigate and Repair Corrosion and Stress Corrosion Cracking Damage in Austenitic Stainless-Steel Canisters used for Used Fuel Storage
rehaas2020-05-28T10:28:12-05:00Project Overview: 304 Stainless Steel nuclear fuel storage canisters experience general corrosion and stress corrosion cracking when stored for long periods of time in warm weather environments. These cracks need to be reduced or eliminated in order to maintain the structural integrity of the spent fuel storage devices. These devices are large canisters of 304 [...]
