We have proposed a micromachined system with the aim of controlling injection of DNA into cells. The injection system is composed of two components: hollow microcapillaries for injection and microchambers for trapping cells. The hollow microcapillary array, the most important part of the system has been fabricated. In…

Phosphorus (P) doped diamond thin films were grown by microwave plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition (CVD) using phosphine (PH3) as a dopant source. The addition of PH3 in the gas ambient significantly influenced the optimal growth condition for diamond. The {111} surface of diamond was found to be the best surfa…

The structural modifications that a highly damaged region in diamond undergoes upon thermal annealing have been studied by molecular dynamic simulations. We verified our use of the Tersoff potential and our computational methods for describing the thermally driven transition of diamond to graphite by calculating the t…

Elastic stiffness constants in a perovskite-type oxide solid-solution system are discussed on the basis of the Landau-type free energy function expressed in terms of polarization and strain components. It is found that some of the elastic stiffness constants become extremely small in the vicinity of the morphotropic p…

We present a systematic theory of polymer reaction kinetics at an interface separating two immiscible melts, A and B, in each of which a fraction of chains carry reactive end groups. We consider arbitrary values of local group reactivity, Q b, and reactive group densities in either bulk, and, with the convention . At…

Strategies for obtaining low surface energy coating materials; include those for realizing surfaces rich in CF3 groups. Of these, ones that are low in cost and environmentally friendly (for example, avoid organic solvents) have a good chance of being introduced for everyday use. It is shown that waterborne nanodispers…

That the Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) techniqueallows molecules to pack and orient in a well-defined fashion along a surface lends it suitability for preparing films of compounds with useful magnetic properties. Here is reported the synthesis of a semi-fluorinated iron complex (see Figure) that is extremely stable in the LB…

Single crystals of Fe-40 at.% Al were cold rolled to a variety of strains up to 48%, when cracking occurred. The rolled crystals were heated at 10 K min−1 to 973 K in a differential scanning calorimeter, whereupon three exothermic peaks were observed. The cold rolling also induced a transition from paramagnetism to fe…
