Techniques have been developed to produce ohmic contacts to naturally occurring boron doped semiconducting diamond. Thin films of Mo, Mo/Au, and Mo/Ni/Au deposited on diamond produced adherent ohmic contacts after annealing at 950 °C. A thermally activated solid state reaction which produces a refractory carbide preci…

Starburst dendrimers, spherical polymers constructed from methyl acrylate and ethylenediamine, were successfully used to covalently couple synthetic porphyrins to antibody molecules. The dendrimers, as linker molecules, have great potential for increasing the specific activity of radiolabeled antibodies for tumor ther…

The size and surface effects on the nematic-isotropic phase transition of a liquid crystal are analyzed using a functional form of the surface energy proportional to the square of the scalar order parameter. The evaluated temperature shift agrees with the published experimental observations. This form seems confirmed…

A phenomenological theory of polar structures in chiral biaxial liquid crystals is constructed exploiting the properties of a symmetric and traceless tensor order parameter field ${\mathit{Q}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\alpha}}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\beta}}}$(r) and of a polar field ${\mathit{P}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\alpha}}…

Abstract Calcareous sodic soils having high sodicity and high pH often maintain high solution P concentration. The effect of high exchangeable Na, high pH, and alkali anions and carbonates on the release of inorganic P was investigated in soils representing the three major benchmark sodic soil series found in the Indo…

Electric fields can cause structural changes of the blue phases (BP) that appears in chiral liquid crystals. In BP I and BP II, electrostrictive effects cause a shift of the Bragg reflection wavelengths with little intensity change. In BP III, for systems with negative dielectric anisotropy, there is a strong increase…

Many strains of the genus Ustilago were found to be good producers of organic acids, that is, itaconic, l-itatartaric, l-2-hydroxyparaconic, and l-malic acids. Itatartaric and 2-hydroxyparaconic acids were invariably produced together with itaconic acid. From these findings and the results of the experiments with perm…

Abstract The interaction between in situ evaporated aluminum and plyvinyl alcohol (PVA) polymer at 300 K was studied by XPS. The aluminum condenses on the PVA surface by a Volmer–Weber (clustering) mechanism; it takes about a 3.7 monolayer deposition to nucleate clusters sufficiently large to exhibit core binding ener…

A systematic study of the photoluminescence (PL) of Se-doped n-type GaAs grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition is reported. A new method is presented to determine the electron effective mass of n+-direct-gap semiconductors from the PL spectrum. GaAs samples with electron densities from 1015 to 8×1018 cm−3 we…

Carbon disulfide has long been recognized as a potent inhibitor of nitrification, and it is the likely active component in several nitrification inhibitors suitable for field use. The effects of this compound on Nitrosomonas europaea have been investigated, and the site of action has been determined. Low concentration…

The proposed mechanism of the anomaly is associated with the second-sound modes occurring in a locally lamellar structure…
