The temperature dependence of hypersonic longitudinal and transverse sound waves in ``strong'' (${\mathrm{B}}_{2}$${\mathrm{O}}_{3}$) and ``fragile'' [${\mathrm{Ca}}_{0.4}$${\mathrm{K}}_{0.6}$(${\mathrm{NO}}_{3}$${)}_{4}$] glass-forming systems have been probed using Brillouin scattering. In the latter material the tr…

The hydrogen-bonding status of His57 in the catalytic triad (Asp-His-Ser) of serine protease has important mechanistic implications for this class of enzymes. Recent nitrogen-15 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies of alpha-lytic protease find His57 and Ser195 to be strongly hydrogen-bonded, a result that conflict…

Methods for the design and synthesis of ligands intended to be specific for a metal ion have been a recent chemical development. This article describes how this process can be inverted so that the specifics of the coordination environment around the metal ion can be used as a template in large-scale ligand synthesis.…

The electronic structure of fully oxidized polyaniline, pernigraniline, is investigated in the framework of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger Hamiltonian, making use of an original renormalization technique. Among the family of polyanilines, pernigraniline is the only form to possess a degenerate ground state. It is shown to a…

Alkali-halide single crystals are shown to grow from molecular beams under conditions systematically different from those for metals and elemental semiconductors, for reasons related to ionic bonding. Heteroepitaxy, and the occurrence of epitaxially stabilized new alkali-halide alloys and compounds, are discussed.

Single-phase SnxGe1−x alloys with x up to 0.3 have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy. X-ray diffraction measurements indicate the layers to have the diamond crystal structure. The metastability of the alloys is apparent as increases in the growth temperature, layer thickness, or Sn composition cause phase separatio…

The permeation of deuterium (D) from the gas phase into solution in iron has been measured using a new method based on ion beam analysis. For bare metal surfaces the D uptake was observed to be limited by matrix diffusion through the bulk. The influence of chemisorbed oxygen on the D uptake rate was examined in detail…
