We show that graphene chemical vapor deposition growth on copper foil using methane as a carbon source is strongly affected by hydrogen, which appears to serve a dual role: an activator of the… (More)
In this paper we discuss the effect of background pressure and synthesis temperature on the graphene crystal sizes in chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on copper catalyst. For the first time, we… (More)
In this work we explore the kinetics of single-crystal graphene growth as a function of nucleation density. In addition to the standard methods for suppressing nucleation of graphene by pretreatment… (More)
Laser interactions have traditionally been at the center of nanomaterials science, providing highly nonequilibrium growth conditions to enable the synthesis of novel new nanoparticles, nanotubes, and… (More)
The authors used the Twenty Statements Test in 2 studies to investigate gender and country differences in the spontaneous self-descriptions of 811 college students from Hong Kong, India, Nepal,… (More)
The kinetics and mechanisms of graphene growth on Ni films at 720-880 °C have been measured using fast pulses of acetylene and real-time optical diagnostics. In situ UV-Raman spectroscopy was used to… (More)

In previous projects funded by the DOE, Proportional Technologies, Inc. developed the basic design of a neutron imaging detector, based on the boron-coated straw technology, aimed to replace 3He… (More)
We have developed a large-area, low-cost, high-efficiency neutron detector for vehicle-mounted operation. The detector, which has overall dimensions 12.7 cm <inline-formula> <tex-math… (More)
