Peptides are the most promising molecules for nanotechnologies. Stable derivatives suitable for supramolecular design can be synthesized even from the simplest amino acid, glycine. Oligoglycines are able to form an unusual (noncanonical) structure, so-called polyglycine II, where peptide helices 3 1 (ϕ = −76.9°, ψ = 1…

Using direct glass imprinting with glassy carbon molds, one-dimensional surface-relief gratings with 500 nm pitch were fabricated on phosphate glasses. The maximum grating height attained in this study was 730 nm, which was formed by pressing at the softening temperature of the glass at a constant pressure of 0.4 kN/c…

Abstract Desorption experiments performed on four Cu-adsorbed palygorskites suggest that the leached Cu 2+ ion originates at the surface and/or net-like interstice of the palygorskite fibres. The leached fraction, calculated from the quantities of adsorbed Cu 2+ before and after desorption, is <1%. This may indicat…

We demonstrate the growth of ZnO nanorods on a Si(100) substrate through a two-step process, annealing and off-axis pulsed laser deposition (PLD), without a catalyst. ZnO powder was first dispersed on the Si substrate, and annealed to form seeds for ZnO nanorod growth for 2.5 h. In the second step, ZnO was deposited o…

The electrical conduction in insulating materials is a complex process and several theories have been suggested in the literature. Many phenomenological empirical models are in use in the DC cable literature. However, the impact of using different models for cable insulation has not been investigated until now, but fo…

Electromigration in short Cu interconnects was studied under a number of conditions in Cu/Low-K technologies. Observed failure distributions displayed increasing dispersion of the failure times, characterized by the lognormal σ, as the Blech critical threshold, (jL)c, was approached. Simulations show that the apparent…

The magnetic properties and the magnetic entropy change Δ S have been investigated for Gd 6 Co 1.67 Si 3 compounds with a second-order phase transition. The saturation moment at 5 K and the Curie temperature T C are 38.1 μ B and 298 K, respectively. The Δ S originates from a reversible second-order magnetic transition…

A novel transient technique is developed to measure the thermal diffusivity of one-dimensional microscale wires. In this technique, a pulsed nanosecond laser is used to quickly heat the wire. After laser heating, the wire temperature decays slowly. Such temperature decay is sensed and used to determine the thermal dif…

ZnO tetrapods uniformly distributed over the surface of zinc foils were synthesized in situ at 900 °C in air. Control experiments indicate that ZnO tetrapods are evolved from ZnO microspheres and their clustered complexes, which act as the centers advancing to further one-dimensional (1D) growth and branching structur…
