BspA is a basic surface-exposed protein from Lactobacillus fermentum BR11. Sequence comparisons have shown that it is a member of family III of the solute binding proteins. It is 89% identical to the collagen binding protein, Cnb, from Lactobacillus reuteri. Compared with the database of Escherichia coli proteins, Bsp…

Change of electronic and lattice structures upon the orbital and charge-ordering (OO-CO) transition has been investigated for a single-layer manganite crystal of ${\mathrm{La}}_{1/2}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{3/2}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{4}.$ The optical birefringence signal probes the orbital-ordering-induced anisotropy in the originally…

An electromigration model is developed to simulate the reliability of Al and Al–Cu interconnects. A polynomial expression for the free energy of solution by Murray [Int. Met. Rev. 30, 211 (1985)] was used to calculate the chemical potential for Al and Cu while the diffusivities were defined based on a Cu-trapping mode…

The (001) surface of natural pure margarite was chemically characterized by angle-resolved Xray photoelectron spectroscopy (ARXPS). The extreme surface sensitivity of ARXPS permits concluding that the chemical composition of the near-surface region differs from the bulk because of the strong anisotropy of the margarit…

We report x-ray photoemission spectra for a CaCO3 filled poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) polymer with dioctyl pthalate plasticizer. XPS spectra were acquired with a SSI model SSX-100 instrument using monochromated Al Kα x-rays. We present the survey spectrum (binding energy 0–1000 eV) and a narrow spectrum of the C 1s, O 1…

Formation of lead niobate pyrochlores by the reaction of PbO with Nb 2 O 5 in various molar ratios and at various temperatures has been investigated. It has been shown that for a PbO/Nb 2 O 5 molar ratio between 1.5 and 3.0, a pyrochlore solid solution having cubic symmetry is formed at low temperatures (∼500‐600°C).…

A theory of the central peak line shape in Raman scattering in ferroelectrics above ${T}_{c}$ is developed. Off-center ions are considered as a possible source of the local symmetry breaking. We argue that in order to properly describe the features of the central peak line shape above ${T}_{c}$ one should take into ac…

Growth of calcareous deposits on stainless steels (SS) exposed to seawater under cathodic protection (CP) conditions was examined. CP was performed by galvanic coupling with iron, zinc, or magnesium anodes. The influence of the galvanic coupling period on the temporal evolution of localized corrosion susceptibility wa…

The expansion behavior of bubbles in silica glass concerning Czochralski silicon crystal growth has been investigated. It is found that most of the bubbles expand considerably under an Ar atmosphere of 20 Torr and 1500°C. The bubble expansion can be classified into three groups. The first group shows huge expansion wh…
