The behavior of particles that are reflected in a turbo molecular pump is investigated by measuring particle trajectories and the number of particles that fall on a wafer in a plasma etching apparatus. Some scattered particles collide with the wafer at high velocity, which damage fine patterns of the photoresist on th…

Spatiotemporal correlations in start-up flows of attractive colloids are explored by numerical simulations as a function of their volume fraction and shear rate. The suspension is first allowed to flocculate during a time tw, then the stress necessary to induce its flow is computed. We find that, at low volume fractio…

Calcium phosphate (CaP) nanoparticles with particle sizes <100 nm were prepared and conjugated with lauric acid. This was achieved by first activating the phosphate group of CaP and conjugating it with lauric acid via acid chloride route incorporating chitosan as a spacer. Insulin was loaded and the nanoparticles were…

Abstract Polycarbonate–titania hybrids have been synthesized by a sol–gel reaction, starting from poly(trimethylene carbonate) (PTMC) and titanium isoproproxide in different ratios. PTMC with a given chain length was obtained by ring opening polymerization. FT‐IR spectra reveal the presence of TiOC covalent bonds be…

This letter introduces new algorithms for passivity verification and compensation of macromodels constructed from delayed rational functions in the scattering domain. For passivity verification, a frequency-dependent generalized eigenvalue is formulated, which is used to accurately determine the regions of passivity v…

The peak current amplitude and front duration of lightning stroke current waveforms have conventionally been evaluated independently, and severe waveform assumptions are usually adopted in the current of lightning insulation designs. If lightning stroke waveform conditions are optimized, lightning insulation specifica…

Biochemical and histological evaluations of the effects of the iron chelator desferrioxamine on the nephrotoxicity induced by cisplatin in normal rats were carried out. A single dose of cisplatin (7.5 mg/kg, intravenously) caused nephrotoxicity that manifested biochemically as an elevation of blood urea nitrogen, seru…
