Background —Tissue engineering using in vitro–cultivated autologous vascular wall cells is a new approach to biological heart valve replacement. In the present study, we analyzed a new concept to process allogenic acellular matrix scaffolds of pulmonary heart valves after in vitro seeding with the use of autologous ce…

A water-soluble self-doped conducting polypyrrole-based copolymer was synthesized via the grafting of pyrrole onto the p-aminodiphenylamine moieties of a water-soluble copolymer. The conductive copolymer exhibited a conductivity as large as 3.4 S/cm. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 79: 86–89, 2001
Background —Tissue engineering is a new approach in which techniques are being developed to transplant autologous cells onto biodegradable scaffolds to ultimately form new functional autologous tissue. Workers at our laboratory have focused on tissue engineering of heart valves. The present study was designed to evalu…
Background —Previous tissue engineering approaches to create heart valves have been limited by the structural immaturity and mechanical properties of the valve constructs. This study used an in vitro pulse duplicator system to provide a biomimetic environment during tissue formation to yield more mature implantable he…
It is shown that, in submonolayer growth at off-normal incidence, even much less than one percent of transfer from the condensation energy of the deposited atoms into adatom motion is sufficient to induce a net adatom current from the illuminated edge of a two-dimensional island to the other edges, thereby breaking th…
We use the dynamical mean-field method to calculate the charge density wave transition temperature of the half-filled Holstein model as function of typical phonon frequency in the physically relevant adiabatic limit of phonon frequency Omega much less than electron bandwidth t. Our work is the first systematic expansi…
The quantum mechanical ground state of electrons is described by Density Functional Theory, which leads to large minimization problems. An efficient minimization method uses a selfconsistent field (SCF) solution of large eigenvalue problems. The iterative Davidson algorithm is often used, and we propose a new algorith…
A review is given of the phonon anomalies, which have been termed ``waterfalls,'' that were recently discovered through a series of neutron inelastic scattering measurements on the lead-oxide relaxor systems PZN-xPT, PMN, and PZN. We discuss a simple coupled-mode model that has been used successfully to describe the b…

High-resolution transmission electron microscopy observations and magnetic ac susceptibility measurements have been carried out to study the changes in the magnetic properties of La 1- x Sr x CoO 3 samples ( x ⩽0.3) processed at different annealing temperatures, ranging from 1273 to 1573 K. Although neutron diffractio…
Fabry–Pérot hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H)/amorphous-SiOx:H microcavities with an erbium-doped a-Si:H active region are fabricated by a plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor deposition technique in a single technological cycle without exposure to air between the intermediate operations. A metalorganic compound is us…
Variations of the photoionization cross section of valence states as a function of interatomic distance are studied by means of atomic and solid-state density functional approaches and compared with photoemission data. In contrast to the free atom case, a series of Cooper minima is found for 4d, 5d, and 5f states in P…
The fabrication of three-dimensional networks of carbon nanotubes with controlled orientation will be essential for building large-scale functional devices integrated with microelectronics circuits. We describe here our recent work on the controlled synthesis of vertically aligned carbon-nanotube patterns, grown under…
We report a multicomponent theory for the coexistence of charge ordering (CO), and antiferromagnetic (AFM) and ferromagnetic (FM) spin ordering. This kind of state is invoked for manganites by Moreo et al., Science 283, 2034 (1999) and observed in recent experiments. We show that doping an AFM or CO state always gener…
The tuning properties of epitaxial Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 (BST) thin films were investigated by a scanning microwave microscope (SMM) and an LCR meter. Although the BST films on LaAlO3 and MgO substrates showed similar tuning behavior when measured by the LCR meter at 1 MHz, remarkably different tuning properties were observe…
The thermal stability of faceted self-assembled PbSe quantum dots during annealing is investigated. With increasing annealing time, the dot density is found to decrease rapidly with a simultaneous increase of the average island volumes. In addition, a shape transition from pyramidal islands to truncated pyramids is ob…
Epitaxial SrBi2Nb2O9 thin films have been grown on (110) SrTiO3 substrates by pulsed laser deposition. Four-circle x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy reveal nearly phase pure epitaxial films with the c axis of the films at 45° with respect to the substrate normal. Electrical characterization is pre…
