The regional flux density in laminations of soft magnetic materials is usually determined by means of a single-winding coil inserted through drilled holes. An alternative method is to use needle contacts arranged at lamination surface points through the surface coating. This method is simple and nondestructive. Howeve…

Plasma damage to methylsilsequioxane (MSQ) based low-k dielectrics degrades the material’s resistance to subsequent wet etch processes. In addition, the loss of methyl species during plasma exposure increases their susceptibility to water absorption leading to increased dielectric permittivities. In this article, we i…

Abstract A fluorene derivative having two diarylethene units at the 9,9′-positions was synthesized, and the photochromic behavior was examined in a single-crystalline phase as well as in solution. Upon irradiation with ultraviolet light (λ = 313 nm), a hexane solution of the diarylethene dimer (1a) turned blue. The bl…
