Ithaca area middle school students now have an exciting new way—3D, kinesthetic, and visual—to experience topography and isolines in their science classrooms, thanks to our outreach team at Xraise.

The ability to precisely control every aspect of a material, even at the nanoscale, is of critical importance in a host of applications.

When CESR first came online in 1979, the accelerator was optimized for high-energy physics (HEP), with a design based on the "FODO" concept: one unit cell was comprised of a horizontally-focusing quadrupole, a dipole, a vertically-focusing quadrupole, and another dipole.

Feedback gathered by the Xraise staff from local elementary school teachers during the past year has indicated that more educators would facilitate open-ended engineering projects in their classrooms if they were supplied with the materials needed to conduct such activities.

With continued scaling of nanostructures used in semiconductor devices at sub-10 nm technology nodes, development of new conformal deposition and annealing processes, and testing of their compatibility with high mobility transistor channel materials, such as III-V and Germanium (Ge), are required.

Thermal annealing is a standard method for bringing block copolymer films into their thermal equilibrium morphology.

On September 6th, the solenoid from the CLEO detector was removed from the area known as L-Zero at Wilson Synchrotron Laboratory, the former interaction point of electron and positron colliding beams.

It is Summer, which means school is out! Teachers are not really requesting equipment from the Lending Library, so what goes on with this program during the summer months?
