Developments in biotechnology have seen the growing use of macromolecules containing proteins, peptides, vaccines, antigens, genes, and growth factors as therapeutic agents. Because these macromolecules are easily denatured and metabolized rapidly in vivo, their protection and controlled release are required. Biodegra…

Sputtered Co is investigated as a suitable contact metal for bulk , and the results are compared to sputtered Ni. The coefficient of thermal expansion of Co matches that of bulk used in our study, and the compatible interface favors the selection of Co as a contact metal. Significant Ni diffusion into was observed. In…

We have investigated oxygen non-stoichiometric BiMnO3±δ samples. It was found that the oxygen deficient samples could not be prepared by the direct high-pressure high-temperature method and other methods should be developed for the preparation of BiMnO3−δ. It was confirmed that stoichiometric BiMnO3 adopts the monocli…
