We have used field-effect transistor (FET) devices with semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) as the conducting channels to study interactions of aromatic compounds with SWNTs. Electronic detection occurs through charge-transfer effects, monitored as the change of the gate voltage ( V g ) dependence of…

A three-step seed-mediated growth method was used to make gold nanoparticles. Different surfactants, alkyltrimethylammonium bromides (C n TAB, n = 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18) and cetylpyridinium chloride (C 16 PC), were chosen as stabilizers. In general, it was found that as the length of the surfactant chain increased, t…

The reactivity of the cation radicals formed by oxidation of four 3,4-alkylenedioxypyrrole and 3,4-alkylenedioxythiophene monomers has been investigated by fast scan cyclic voltammetry, from the V/s to the kV/s range. The results show that all cation radicals react quickly as desired for electropolymerization and elec…

Triplet phases recorded from insulin crystals were used to measure the improvement of phases during model refinement and to quantify the contribution made by each step in the refinement. Conventional amplitude data were recorded to 1.5 A resolution from rhombohedral pig insulin crystals using 1.54 A Cu Kalpha radiatio…

A film sample of aromatic polyamide, or so-called Aramid, was subjected to grinding in air with calcium oxide (CaO) powder by using a planetary ball mill, to investigate its mechanochemical decomposition. The reaction was found to proceed with an increase in the period of grinding time, and all chlorine in the film wa…

All of the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and optical data relating to some of the basic nickel-related defects in diamond have been compared, as well as previously little considered information about the effects of spin–orbit coupling and the magnitude of the crystal field. New models are proposed for the EPR…

The perfect 60° glide dislocation in diamond serves as an example of how different aspects of dislocations can be modelled in an approach combining continuum elasticity theory with atomistic density-functional-based tight-binding calculations. After investigating the perfect 60° dislocation and its isolated Shockley p…

A method for improving crystallographic phases is presented that is based on the preferential occurrence of certain local patterns of electron density in macromolecular electron-density maps. The method focuses on the relationship between the value of electron density at a point in the map and the pattern of density s…

The effects of dispersed aerosil nanoparticles on two of the phase transitions of the thermotropic liquid-crystal material 4-n-pentylphenylthiol-4(')-n-octyloxybenzoate (8;S5) have been studied using high-resolution x-ray diffraction techniques. The aerosils hydrogen bond together to form a gel which imposes a weak qu…

A method that uses both Hartree−Fock and hybrid Hartree−Fock density functional methods at the 6-311+G(2df,p) basis set level is used to calculate the 19 F NMR chemical shifts for possible Al−F species in sodium aluminosilicate glasses. The accuracy of this method has been carefully checked by calculating 19 F NMR shi…

Calmodulin (CaM) regulates a variety of cellular processes by interacting with a large number of proteins in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. Conformational flexibility plays a key role in CaM function, although the full extent and detailed features of this flexibility are not fully characterized. Here, the 1.75 A resolutio…
