This work reports on a system that can determine the thermal behavior of an activated complex microelectronic device by measuring its surface temperature field with a thermoreflectance-based system. The article describes the features of the experimental setup, provides details of the calibration process used to map th…
The use of low melting alloy thermal interface materials results in exceptionally low thermal resistance between heat-generating electronic components and heat removal systems. Under certain conditions, these alloys can oxidize which may lead to degradation in thermal performance. In addition, if the alloy is used in…
Biodegradable amphiphilic graft copolymers poly-alpha,beta-[N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-L-aspartamide]-g-poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PHEA-g-PCL) with different branch lengths were synthesized through the ring-opening polymerization of epsilon-caprolactone initiated by the macroinitiator PHEA bearing hydroxyl groups. With use o…
We have studied the relationship between rheological and peeling properties for hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesives based on homopolymers or copolymers blended with tackifying resins. In this article, we particularly try to demonstrate that it is possible to define a quantitative link between rheology and adherence…
The Boeing sol-gel conversion coating (Boegel-EPII), derived from an acid-catalyzed aqueous solution of organofunctional silane and zirconium alkoxide precursors, is being used as an adhesion promoter for adhesive bonding and painting applications in the aerospace industry. A unique advantage of the sol-gel process is…
The ASTM D 54701 standard is currently being revised to cover a test method for the measurement of thermal impedance and calculation of an apparent thermal conductivity for thermal interface materials (TIM) ranging from liquid compounds to hard solids. Modifications to the procedure include the use of mechanical stops…
The synthesis of novel meso-/macroporous SiO2 monoliths by combining a nano-building-blocks-based approach with the confined geometry of a tailored air-liquid foam structure is described. The resulting macrostructure in which ordered close-packed colloidal silica nanoparticles constitute the monolith's scaffolds very…
Sisal-fiber-reinforced composites, as a class of eco-composites, have attracted much attention from materials scientists and engineers in recent years. In this article, the effects of fiber surface treatment on fiber tensile strength and fiber-matrix interface characteristics were determined by using tensile and singl…
Peptide dendrimers built by iteration of the diamino acid dendron Dap-His-Ser (His = histidine, Ser = Serine, Dap = diamino propionic acid) display a strong positive dendritic effect for the catalytic hydrolysis of 8-acyloxypyrene 1,3,6-trisulfonates, which proceeds with enzyme-like kinetics in aqueous medium (Delort,…
Localized areas of high heat flux on microprocessors produce hot spots that limit their reliability and performance. With increasingly dense circuits and the integration of high power processors with low power memory, non-uniform thermal profiles will become more dramatic and difficult to manage. Chip scale thermal so…
Highly ordered silver sulfide nanorods conjugated with the Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) protein have been successfully achieved at ambient temperature. Such a process is very simple and controllable, directly using silver nitrate and thioacetamide (TAA) as the reactants in the aqueous solution of BSA. The products have…
Poly(propylene fumarate) (PPF) is an important biodegradable and cross-linkable polymer designed for bone-tissue-engineering applications. For the first time we report the extensive characterization of this biomaterial including molecular weight dependences of physical properties such as glass transition temperature T…
We use a self-consistent method to study the current of the single molecular transistor modulated by the transverse gate-bias in the level of the first-principles calculations. The numerical results show that both the polyacene-dithiol molecules and the fused-ring oligothiophene molecules are the potential high-freque…
Translational diffusion of a fluorescein probe has been measured in iota-carrageenan edible films containing different amounts of glycerol (0, 15, 30, and 45%), using fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) experiments. The effects of this plasticizer as well as the plasticizing effect of water on the diffus…
A series of novel phenylacetylenes bearing optically active cyclodextrin (CyD) residues such as alpha-, beta-, and gamma-CyD and permethylated beta-CyD residues as the pendant groups was synthesized and polymerized with a rhodium catalyst to give highly cis-transoidal poly(phenylacetylene)s, poly-1alpha, poly-2beta, p…
The perfect lens property of a dispersive and lossy left-handed metamaterial (LHM) disk is exploited to superimpose a source of electromagnetic radiation onto its mirror image, formed as a result of reflection from a perfect electric conductor (PEC) or a perfect magnetic conductor (PMC). The superposition of a vertica…
We report the fabrication and characterization of antifouling polymer-coated magnetic nanoparticles as nanoprobes for magnetic resonance (MR) contrast agents. Magnetite superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) were coated with the protein- or cell-resistant polymer, poly(TMSMA-r-PEGMA), to generate stable, p…
The stressed liquid-crystal (SLC) electro-optic effect promises fast electro-optic response times even for design wavelengths in the infrared (IR). Here we report characteristics of SLC devices appropriate for use as liquid-crystal-onsilicon (LCOS) spatial light modulators (SLMs) in the near ( λ = 1.8-2.5 μm…
The photodissociation of manganese oxide cluster cations Mn(N)O+ (N = 2-5), into Mn(N-1)O+ (one-atom loss) and Mn(N-2)O+ (two-atom), was investigated in the photon-energy range of 1.08-2.76 eV. The bond-dissociation energies D0(Mn(N-1)O+...Mn) for N = 3, 4, and 5 were determined to be 1.84+/-0.03, 0.99+/-0.05, and 1.2…
Like Honeycomb is how the pore structures of silica‐based mesoporous organic–inorganic hybrid materials often appear. In the Review on page 3216 ff., M. Fröba and co‐workers give an overview of their preparation. The cover picture shows hybrids whose pores are functionalized with cyclam (ligand), sulforhodamine B (las…
