A new, facile and generally applicable synthesis of functionalized gold nanoparticles is presented. It is based on the surfactant-free generation of weakly stabilized nanoparticles by the reduction of HAuCl4 with sodium naphthalenide in diglyme. These nanoparticles were found to lack long-term stability. However, stab…
The electrospinning technique was used successfully to fabricate one-dimensional arrays of Au nanoparticles within nanofibers in which the intrinsic nature of the semicrystalline polymer poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) was employed as a template for the controlled nanoscale organization of nanoparticles. Differential scann…
An ensemble Monte Carlo method is used to study the spin injection through a ferromagnet-semiconductor junction where a Schottky barrier is formed. It is shown that the Schottky-barrier-induced electric field which is confined in the depletion region and parallel to the injection direction, is very large. This electri…
A modified model of metal-semiconductor contacts is applied to analyze the capacitance-voltage and current-voltage characteristics of metal-ferroelectric-metal structures. The ferroelectric polarization is considered as a sheet of surface charge situated at a fixed distance from the interface. The presumable high conc…
This article summarizes a roundtable discussion held at the 2005 Society of Toxicology Annual Meeting in New Orleans, LA. The purpose of the roundtable was to review the current challenges and data needs for conducting toxicological and safety evaluations for nanomaterials, with the goals of presenting the current sta…
The stereoselective annealing conditions for polylactides to crystallize as α homocrystals ( T m = 180 °C) and/or higher melting temperature ( T m = 230 °C) η stereocomplex crystals are reported in this paper. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies provide evidence of the isotherma…
PEGylated Nb2O5 surfaces were obtained by the adsorption of poly(L-lysine)-g-poly(ethylene glycol) (PLL-g-PEG) copolymers, allowing control of the PEG surface density, as well as the surface charge. PEG (MW 2 kDa) surface densities between 0 and 0.5 nm(-2) were obtained by changing the PEG to lysine-mer ratio in the P…
We numerically study the vibrations of jammed packings of particles interacting with finite-range, repulsive potentials at zero temperature. As the packing fraction $\ensuremath{\phi}$ is lowered towards the onset of unjamming at ${\ensuremath{\phi}}_{c}$, the density of vibrational states approaches a nonzero value i…
This paper reviews the extended Cauchy model and the four-parameter model for describing the wavelength and temperature effects of liquid crystal (LC) refractive indices. The refractive indices of nine commercial LCs, MLC-9200-000, MLC-9200-100, MLC-6608, MLC-6241-000, 5PCH, 5CB, TL-216, E7, and E44 are measured by th…
Density functional theory calculations have been performed to study the dissolution and migration of helium in $\ensuremath{\alpha}$-iron, and the stability of small helium-vacancy clusters ${\mathrm{He}}_{n}{V}_{m}$ ($n$,$m=0$ to 4). Substitutional and interstitial configurations of helium are found to have similar s…
accumulation is very time-consuming when using full matrix leastsquare for larger problems.
Comparing the year ends of the last three triennia, 11728 journal pages were published in 2004, compared with 9215 in 2001 and 7937 in 1998. This increase in the number of pages has been accompanied by a major reduction in publication times for all sections of Acta Cryst., J. Appl. Cryst. and J. Synchrotron Rad. In th…
With the advent of the Structural Genomics initiatives, we have seen a host of new technologies emerge for automation of the tedious crystallization process. The latest robots and nanodispensers allow us to perform a larger number of crystallization screens faster with significantly less quantities of protein. There i…
Microstructure of metals (Cu, Fe, Mg, Cu with Al 2 O 3 ) obtained by high-pressure torsion and its evolution with post annealing was studied by conventional powder diffraction in symmetric Bragg-Brentano geometry. This included evaluation of lattice parameters and texture but mainly line profile analysis in terms of b…
I. INTRODUCTION Liquid detergents make a major contribution to the overall detergent and cleaners market, due in part to their handling characteristics and their ease of use. However, in numerous cases, the formulations would lack either consumer appeal or essential physical properties if they did not include additive…
The RCSB validates PDB data while considering the evolving nature of data and nomenclature standards. In order to provide the community with high quality data, the RCSB Protein Data Bank (www.pdb.org) has developed a number of tools that support the deposition and processing of X-ray and NMR structures and that are ba…

We have prepared sodium tellurite glasses doped with europium. Emission intensity of the europium-doped glass is at least 500× more than that of the undoped glass. Fluorescence features exhibited dependence on the pump laser wavelength. Persistent spectral hole burning was observed in the F07→D05 transition of Eu3+. M…
In the vicinity of their resonance frequency, piezoelectric resonators are highly sensitive to small perturbations. The present report is focused on the magnetic field as a perturbation source. Magnetocapacitance modulation of more than 5% is achieved at room temperature on both ferroelectric single crystals and quart…
