Bioinspired Materials Can Take a Punch | NIST The mantis shrimp packs a powerful punch thanks partly to unique structures in its exoskeleton NIST researchers have fabricated synthetic versions of these structures and tested their impact resistance by blasting them with microprojectiles These bioinspired structures can be used to create new, impact-resistant materials for aerospace, defense, sports and more
Materials laboratories of the future for alloys, amorphous, and . . . Abstract In alignment with the Materials Genome Initiative and as the product of a workshop sponsored by the US National Science Foundation, we define a vision for materials laboratories of the future in alloys, amorphous materials, and composite materials; chart a roadmap for realizing this vision; identify technical bottlenecks and barriers to access; and propose pathways to equitable and
Standard Reference Materials | NIST NIST supports accurate and compatible measurements by certifying and providing over 1200 Standard Reference Materials® with well-characterized composition or properties, or both
Materials | NIST Plastics, carbon nanotubes, high-strength alloys, artificial bone and joint replacements are just some of the emerging materials for which NIST develops testbeds, defines benchmarks, and develops formability measurements and models
Applied Materials | NIST Applied Materials will work with university partners to provide internships and graduate research opportunities for graduate, undergraduate, and training in community colleges for students in advanced packaging, chiplet integration in fabrication facilities, and chiplet substrate design
Rare Crystal Shape Found to Increase the Strength of 3D-Printed Metal NIST researchers have found special atomic patterns called quasicrystals in 3D-printed aluminum alloys Quasicrystals increase the strength of 3D-printed aluminum, the researchers discovered, making it possible to use in lightweight, high-strength objects such as airplane parts Once thought impossible, quasicrystals were originally discovered at NIST, leading to a 2011 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
Materials Data Resources | NIST Materials Resource Registry allows for the registration of materials resources, bridging the gap between existing resources, software and repositories and end users
Nanometer-Scale Planar Reference Materials | NIST Reference materials of planar films will accelerate the adoption of new materials into production, improve the yield from current process technologies, and allow for manufacturers to better compare metrology and process monitoring results between foundries
NIST and Partners Use Quantum Mechanics to Make a Factory for Random . . . NIST and its partners at the University of Colorado Boulder built the first random number generator that uses quantum entanglement to produce verifiable random numbers Broadcast as a free public service, the Colorado University Randomness Beacon (CURBy) can be used anywhere an independent, public source of random numbers would be useful, such as selecting jury candidates or assigning
