We introduce an anisotropic two-dimensional lattice gas model of metal terminated II-IV(001) seminconductor surfaces. Important properties of this class of materials are represented by effective NN and NNN interactions, which result in the competition of two vacancy structures on the surface. We demonstrate that the e…
The low field magnetotransport of ${\mathrm{La}}_{0.7}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{0.3}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ (LSMO) films grown on ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}$ substrates has been investigated. A high quality LSMO film exhibits anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) and a peak in the magnetoresistance close to the Curie temperature of LSMO. B…
The experimentally observed order-of-magnitude reduction in the thermal conductivity along the growth axis of (GaAs)n/(AlAs)n (or n×n) superlattices is investigated theoretically for (2×2), (3×3) and (6×6) structures using an accurate model of the lattice dynamics. The modification of the phonon dispersion relation du…
We compute time-dependent solutions of the sharp-interface model of dendritic solidification in two dimensions by using a level set method. The steady-state results are in agreement with solvability theory. Solutions obtained from the level set algorithm are compared with dendritic growth simulations performed using a…
▪ Abstract We review the recent progress in the study of layered magnetic manganites La 2−2x Sr 1+2x Mn 2 O 7 , which have many unique features of charge transport and magnetism inherent to the quasi-two-dimensional electronic structure. The system shows a wide variety of magnetic-field-induced phenomena due to the la…
Fermentation strategies for the production of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) from whey by recombinant Escherichia coli strain CGSC 4401 harboring the Alcaligenes latus polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) biosynthesis genes were developed. The pH-stat fed-batch cultures of E. coli CGSC 4401 harboring pJC4, a stable plasmid conta…
High-temperature superconductivity has a significant opportunity to improve the performance of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems. The low rf losses and low operating temperatures of superconducting coils allow them to improve the signal-to-noise ratio in applica…
This micro-review presents an overview of molecular materials derived from phthalocyanines which are substituted with crown ether rings. These flat disk-like molecules can self-assemble into ordered, well-defined structures with or without the aid of alkali metal ions. Highly ordered assemblies of crown ether phthaloc…
We investigate atomic mechanisms of grain boundary (GB) diffusion by combining molecular dynamics (MD), molecular statics, the harmonic approximation to atomic vibrations, and kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulations. The most important aspects of this approach are the basin-constrained implementation of MD and an automa…
Avian integument is thin, elastic, and loosely attached to the body, giving birds the freedom of movement needed for flight. Its epidermis is both keratinized and lipogenic, and the skin as a whole acts as a sebaceous secretory organ. The skin is covered by feathers over most of the body, but many birds show colored b…
Dense β‐Si 3 N 4 with various Y 2 O 3 /SiO 2 additive ratios were fabricated by hot pressing and subsequent annealing. The thermal conductivity of the sintered bodies increased as the Y 2 O 3 /SiO 2 ratio increased. The oxygen contents in the β‐Si 3 N 4 crystal lattice of these samples were determined using hot‐gas ex…
Ultrasound irradiation is proving to be an excellent method for the synthesis of mesoporous oxides. Here is reported the preparation of titania containing a framework of wormholes—a structural motif of importance for catalysis. Using ultrasonication with a long-chain organic amine as a structure-directing agent, the s…
Two series of well-defined poly(urethane urea) multiblock copolymers were synthesized to investigate the phase-separated morphology of this family of materials. Series I copolymers were synthesized from 2000 g/mol poly(tetramethylene oxide) [PTMO], 4,4‘-methylene di( p -phenyl isocyanate) [MDI], and ethylenediamine (E…
Abstract The bubble behavior and hence the pressure generated at the collapse of the cavity for hydrodynamic cavitation depends on the operating conditions and geometry of the mechanical constriction generating cavitation. The effect of operating parameters such as inlet pressure through the system's orifice, initial…
This program allows S(Q) and the pair-distribution function to be determined from a variety of time-of-flight neutron powder diffractometers. Features are a graphical user interface and permanent storage of processing parameters.
In recent years, lack of donor organs has caused many to consider tissue engineering methods as means to replace diseased or damaged organs. This newly-emerging field uses tissue-specific cells in a three-dimensional organization, provided by a scaffolding material, to return functionality of the organ. For these appl…
ABSTRACT The diffusion of acetic or propionic acids from thin (44 to 54 μm) chitosan‐based antimicrobial packaging films in which they were incorporated was measured after immersion of the films in water, and the effects of pH (5.7, 6.4, or 7.0) and temperature (4 °C, 10 °C, or 24 °C) on diffusion were investigated. T…
We have employed the semidiscrete variational generalized Peierls-Nabarro model to study the dislocation properties of aluminum. The generalized-stacking-fault (GSF) energy surface entering the model is calculated by using first-principles density functional theory (DFT) and the embedded-atom method (EAM). Various cor…
The proposed paper will review and evaluate the necessity of magnesium alloys development for expanding the current magnesium applications in Automotive. Aerospace and Electron industries. The paper will also address to the correlation between the alloy development and the production technologies of the actual compone…
▪ Abstract The transition to copper-based interconnects for sub-quarter-micron device technologies has generated significant challenges in the identification and development of the robust material and process technologies required to form reliable multilevel metallization interconnects. In particular, a critical need…
