Chiral Phase Change Nanomaterials
This work demonstrates reversible, non‐volatile phase transitions in chiral Ge2${\rm Ge}_2$Sb2${\rm Sb}_2$Te5${\rm Te}_5$ (GST) nanohelices for high‐speed optical modulation of chirality and dynamic control of the state of polarization (SOP). The chiral nanostructures are fabricated using a highly directional, wafer‐scale physical vapor deposition ...

Testing of some Ballistic Experiments [PDF]
WHEN the Council of Military Education directed my attention to the science of ballistics in 1864, I came to the conclusion that a thoroughly good chronograph would solve all practical difficulties. The newly-invented instrument was first tried in 1865 with ten screens 120 feet apart, by the ue of a 12-pr. Armstrong B.L.
