Several new, more highly corrosion resistant titanium alloys containing a nominal 0.1 weight per cent of ruthenium have been developed and evaluated for industrial service in corrosive environments. These improved ruthenium-enhanced α, α-β and β titanium alloys are lower in cost than the corresponding palladium-contai…

Ammonium and borate substituents polarize π-electron systems, which then exhibit internal CT bands in the UV/Vis spectrum. These systems (for example 1) are distinctly more transparent than analogous push–pull-substituted compounds. Since their first-order hyperpolarizabilities are nevertheless similar to push–pull co…

The mean square displacement of protein hydration water has been found to increase nonlinearly in time, as observed for long times, by molecular dynamics simulations at low hydration levels and in proximity of the protein surface at full hydration. While such an anomalous diffusion is traced back to the more general p…

The crystal structure of FeAlO 3 has been determined at T = 298 K by neutron diffraction, using polycrystalline samples prepared in a high state of purity. The space group is Pna 2 1 , Z = 8; a = 4.9839 (1), b = 8.5544 (2), c = 9.2413 (2) Å. The structure, which is isomorphous to that of FeGaO 3 , can be described as…

The concentration dependence of optical phonons in the ${\mathrm{TiO}}_{2}$-${\mathrm{SnO}}_{2}$ system whose phase diagram exhibits a miscibility gap, has been studied by Raman scattering and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction confirmed that the mixed oxides ${\mathrm{Ti}}_{1\mathrm{\ensuremat…

The wettability of glassy carbon by liquid silicon has been investigated at 1430°C in argon by using techniques of both in situ formation and capillary formation of sessile drops. Analyses of the results showed that there are three distinct contributions of reaction to wetting: (a) dissolution of solid substrate carbo…

Recently, a peroxidase-mediated amplification system has been described for immunofluorescence and fluorescence in situ hybridization studies. It is based on the deposition of hapten- or fluorochrome-labeled tyramide molecules. Although providing a significantly increased detection sensitivity compared to conventional…

Localized excitations (tunneling modes, soft harmonic vibrations) are believed to play a dominant role in the thermodynamics and transport properties of glasses at low temperature. Using instantaneous normal-mode (INM) analysis, we explore the role that such localization plays in determining the behavior of such syste…

A new type of restraint for the B factors of atoms in low- to-moderate resolution models of proteins is proposed. This restraint incorporates the knowledge that the B factors of two atoms bonded to each other may be systemically different. In addition, some bonded pairs of atoms will be more consistent from structure…

Oxygen self-diffusion in ‘undoped’ (i.e. unintentionally doped) alumina (Al2O3) single crystals was investigated using the gas-solid isotope exchange technique. After diffusion annealing, profiles of 18O were determined by secondary ion mass spectrometry. These showed two parts: close to the initial surface, the first…

Despite the huge amount of data on so-called electrical aging of extruded HV cables, the fundamental phenomena responsible for it or evolving with aging time, are still far from well understood. It is therefore not surprising why it is so difficult to predict reliable cable lifetimes in service from accelerated aging…

Conventional ramp‐and‐hold sintering with a wide range of heating rates was conducted on submicrometer and nanocrystalline ZrO 2 –3 mol% Y 2 O 3 powder compacts. Although rapid heating rates have been reported to produce high density/fine grain size products for many submicrometer and smaller starting powders, the app…

Titanium dioxide and zinc oxide films were fabricated by spin‐on and dip‐coating methods. Both types of films exhibited columnar grains when the single coating was thin, ∼10 nm. The columnar TiO 2 films were dense, as confirmed by their density values calculated from the refractive index and TEM results. The addition…

Poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) was molded into films and rods, and drawn in the longitudinal direction to endow them with piezoelectricity. The piezoelectric constants of PLLA films increased with the draw ratio and, after passing a maximum at a draw ratio around 5, decreased. PLLA samples with a draw ratio 5 underwent fibril…
