Possible Indications of Electronic Inhomogeneities in Superconducting Nanowire Detectors
, 2012 The voltage-carrying state of superconducting NbTiN nanowires, used for single-photon detectors, is analyzed. Upon lowering the current, the wire returns to the superconducting state in a steplike pattern, which differs from sample to sample. Elimination

Friction as Contrast Mechanism in Heterodyne Force Microscopy [PDF]
, 2016 The nondestructive imaging of subsurface structures on the nanometer scale has been a long-standing desire in both science and industry. A few impressive images were published so far that demonstrate the general feasibility by combining ultrasound with ...

Methods of determining loads and fiber orientations in anisotropic non-crystalline materials using energy flux deviation [PDF]
, 1993 An ultrasonic wave is applied to an anisotropic sample material in an initial direction and an angle of flux deviation of the ultrasonic wave front is measured from this initial direction. This flux deviation angle is induced by the unknown applied load.
