This paper presents an approach of “film separation” and “transfer” to fabricating functional films or devices on polymeric substrates. For either a ferroelectric La-doped Pb(Zr,Ti)O3, PLZT thin film or a ZnO thin film, using laser lift-off (LLO), film separation from the transparent rigid substrate (sapphire or glass…
The present paper reports the results of a systematic rheological study of the dynamic moduli of 1-butyl 3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Bmim][BF(4)]), 1-butyl 3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([Bmim][PF(6)]), and 1-ethyl 3-methylimidazolium ethylsulfate ([Emim][EtSO(4)]) in the vicinity of their respec…
Biosensors typically operate in liquid media for detection of biomarkers and suffer from fouling resulting from nonspecific binding of protein molecules to the device surface. In the current work, using a coupled field finite element fluid-structure interaction simulation, we have identified that fluid motion induced…
We have measured the polarizabilities of four families of molecules adsorbed to Au{111} surfaces, with structures ranging from fully saturated to fully conjugated, including single-molecule switches. Measured polarizabilities increase with increasing length and conjugation in the adsorbed molecules and are consistent…
We report an extensive study of strained $\text{Ge}/{\text{Si}}_{0.2}{\text{Ge}}_{0.8}$ multiquantum wells grown by ultrahigh-vacuum chemical-vapor deposition. The microstructural properties of the samples were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Their electronic properties have b…
Based on all-electron density functional theory calculations, we systematically investigate the electronic structure of (0001)-oriented wurtzite (wz) and (111)-, (100)-, and (110)-oriented zinc-blende (zb) GaN/AlN superlattices, where the band gap, strength of the electric field and their correlation with biaxial stai…
We have applied pulse-shaped biasing to the expanding thermal plasma deposition of hydrogenated amorphous silicon at substrate temperatures ∼200 °C and growth rates around 1 nm/s. Substrate voltage measurements and measurements with a retarding field energy analyzer demonstrate the achieved control over the ion energy…
We demonstrate an enhancement in the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of p-i-n type organic solar cells consisting of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and fullerene (C60) using a p-layer of palladium phthalocyanine (PdPc). Solar cells employing three different device structures such as ZnPc/ZnPc:C60/C60, PdPc/PdPc:C60/C60,…
We have investigated the feasibility of using FePdB alloy layers for perpendicular magnetic tunnel junctions (p-MTJs). The perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) of FePdB films is obtained by depositing amorphous Fe40Pd40B20 layers on proper templates and by postannealing. An FePdB film on a thick Pt (001) underlayer…
A series of Mo-doped TiO2 films are prepared on quartz substrate by the layer-by-layer assembly method. The films are characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scan electron microscopy (SEM), UV-vis spectrophotometry and fluorescence spectrophotometry. The results show that T…
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was used as the scaffold material to support the proliferation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). The cells were cultured either statically in multi-wells or in a spinner flask agitated at 80 rpm for up to 20 days. To optimize the cell expansion condition, effects of the initial…
Rarely-observed polycrystalline twinned Pt nanoparticles (NPs) and length-controlled Pt nanorods (NRs) with exposed high index facets were prepared through an unexpectedly catalytic growth approach from low-cost Mn(3)O(4) NPs. The as-prepared Pt NRs exhibit higher catalytic activity and better stability for the oxidiz…
In a previous publication [P. A. T. Olsson, J. Appl. Phys. 108, 034318 (2010)], molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed to study the resonant properties of gold nanowires. It has been documented in the aforementioned publication that the eigenfrequencies of the fundamental mode follows the continuum me…
Bromeliothrix metopoides was discovered in tank bromeliads from Central and South America. Pure cultures could be established in various media stimulating growth of its food, i.e. bacteria and heterotrophic flagellates of the genus Polytomella. The new ciliate was investigated in the light- and scanning electron micro…
Co/ZnO films were deposited on glass substrates by magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The structure of the as-deposited films is studied by means of x-ray diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and the zero-field-cooled and field-cooled magnetization curves. It is shown that the as-deposited samples con…
Adipose tissue-derived stromal cells (ASCs) are promising tools for the new therapeutic field of regenerative medicine. Many research teams are intent on producing these cells for therapeutic purposes. The cell production must follow strict rules for safety and for constant quality of the cell product to ensure a reli…
The introduction of a low band-gap oligomer, oligo(benzo[1,2,5]thiadiazole-alt-3,3'''-dihexylquaterthiophene) (BT4T) improved the performance of P3HT:PCBM bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaic cells due to improved UV-vis absorption and increased P3HT crystallinity.
A fusion plant designed to demonstrate electricity production, known as DEMO, is likely to be very different from existing fusion devices and even from ITER. These differences will be found not only in the technology employed but also in physics areas including, but not confined to, the plasma behaviour. Here, some of…
Abstract The model [FeFe]‐hydrogenase subsite Fe2(μ‐odt)(CO)4(PMe3)2 (odt = 2‐oxapropane‐1,3‐dithiolate) has been crystallized for the first time, revealing an apical–basal arrangement of the two phosphane groups. Protonation of this species has been studied by a combination of stopped‐flow ultraviolet and infrared te…
Incorporating a variable capacitance diode into a radio-frequency (rf) matching circuit allows us to in situ tune the resonance frequency of a rf quantum point contact, increasing the versatility of the latter as a fast charge sensor of a proximal quantum circuit. The performance of this method is compared in detail t…
