A hypothetical protein encoded by the gene YajQ of Haemophilus influenzae was selected, as part of a structural genomics project, for x-ray crystallographic...
The concentration of agarose in electrophoresis gels was found to have significant effects on the apparent density and release characteristics of the...
I review some of the novel methods for measuring ferromagnetic properties of thin films based on micromechanical magnetometers. Measurements rely on the...
Dark matter, according to a model of strong, weak, and electromagnetic interactions of elementary particles called the SWEEP model, is composed of beauty...

Photomask dimensional metrology in the scanning electron microscope (SEM) has not evolved as rapidly as the metrology of resists and integrated circuit features...
The scanning electron microscope (SEM) produces images with signals generated through the interaction of the primary electrons and the sample material. The...

Subsolidus phase relations have been determined for the BaO: TiO 2Ta 2O 5 system. Approximately 100 specimens were prepared in air at temperatures near but...
In this abstract, we report the first measurements of the friction between a fluorocarbon monolayer and a hydrocarbon monolayer. Because the fluorocarbon and...
The atomic force microscope is used to measure the tan delta (loss modulus/storate modulus) of a thin film of poly(n-butylacrylate) as a function of frequency...

Combinatorial and high-throughput (C&HT) approaches accelerate research by addressing multiple experimental parameters in a parallel highly efficient fashion...
Polymer brushes have potential as end-tethered lubricants. Brush layers immersed in a good solvent must be compressed to ~16% of their equilibrium height before...

Kinetic parameters from studies of deposition on planar deposits are used to predict superconformal filling of fine features during iodine-catalyzed chemical...
Understanding suppression mechanisms of different fire-suppressing agents including CF 3Br (Halon 1301) and inert gases is useful for their efficient use and...
Carbon dioxide extinguishes flames through dilution process. The extinction characteristics of CO2 were previously studied using a cup-burner flame under normal...

In this approach, a coated polymer film was exposed to UV-ozone treatment through a variable density filter, producing a surface energy gradient with a...
The present study demonstrates the feasibility of the h 5-cyclopentadienylcobalt ion (CpCo +) as a suitable cationization reagent for saturated hydrocarbons...
