The chip's memory access time of 26 nanoseconds made it highly competitive.
The effect on the pulsewidth was typically less than a nanosecond.
The plasma expansion was studied for a copper target with 532-nm nanosecond pulses.
This view makes the behaviour of time itself sequential - no two nanoseconds can overlap - while allowing arbitrarily independent behaviour for bits.
Fast events in protein-folding initiated by nanosecond laser photolysis.
In current practice, typical simulations are performed on nanosecond time intervals, with unusual examples stretching to a microsecond.
Ten nanoseconds later, at roughly half the final implosion time, the first plasma arrives on the axis.
The second regime is a nanosecond-picosecond one, where the laser pulse duration is of the same order or longer than the energy relaxation time.
Once the plasma production has been completed, a positive pulsed voltage is applied to the grid from a nanosecond pulse generator.
