Growth Habits and Defects in ZnO Nanowires Grown on GaN/Sapphire Substrates

August 31, 2005
Author(s)
Igor Levin, Albert Davydov, Babak Nikoobakht, Norman A. Sanford, Pavel Mogilevsky
Growth habits and defects in epitaxial ZnO nanowires grown from Au catalyst on (0001) GaN/sapphire substrate using Vapor-Liquid-Solid (VLS) technique were studied using electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The results revealed presence of both

Microfluidic Platform for Combinatorial Measurements of Polymer Particles

August 28, 2005
Author(s)
Zuzanna T. Cygan, Susan E. Barnes, Kathryn L. Beers, Eric J. Amis
Organic-stable microfluidic devices are used for combinatorial measurements of polymerization reactions on chip. Formulation, processing, and measurement are combined on one chip device for the generation of combinatorial polymer libraries. A monomer /

Boundary Lubricated Wear

July 15, 2005
Author(s)
Stephen M. Hsu, R G. Munro, M C. Shen, Richard S. Gates
This chapter reviews the fundamental nature of wear under lubricated conditions and presents a comprehensive view of our current understanding of the wear processes under boundary lubrication conditions. Wear under lubricated conditions can be classified

Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry Interlaboratory Comparison of Mixtures of Polystyrene With Different End Groups: Statistical Analysis of Mass Fractions and Mass Moments

July 1, 2005
Author(s)
Charles M. Guttman, S Wetzel, Kathleen M. Flynn, B M. Fanconi, David L. VanderHart, William E. Wallace
A matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) interlaboratory comparison was conducted on mixtures of synthetic polymers having the same repeat unit and closely matching molecular mass distributions but with

Rapid Formation of Soft Hydrophilic Silicone Elastomer Surfaces

June 16, 2005
Author(s)
K Efimenko, J A. Crowe, E Manias, D W. Schwark, Daniel A. Fischer, Jan Genzer
We report on the rapid formation of hydrophilic silicone elastomer surfaces by ultraviolet/zone (UVO) irradiation of poly(vinylmethyl siloxane) (PVMS) network films. Our results reveal that the PVMS network surfaces render hydrophilic upon only a short UVO

A Novel Test Method for Measuring Mechanical Properties at the Small-Scale: The Theta Specimen

June 9, 2005
Author(s)
George D. Quinn, Lin-Sien H. Lum, Dan Xiang, Ajitkumar Jillavenkatesa, Li Ma, Douglas T. Smith
A test method has been developed for measuring mechanical properties of material structures at the small-scale. Round or hexagonal rings are compressed vertically on their ends thereby creating a uniform tension stress in a horizontal crossbar that serves

Combinatorial and High-Throughput Measurement of the Modulus of Thin Polymer Films

June 1, 2005
Author(s)
Christopher M. Stafford, Shu Guo, Martin Y. Chiang, C Harrison
Considerable attention has been devoted to developing fabrication strategies for constructing combinatorial material libraries as well as tools for characterizing the chemical and physical properties of such libraries. Less attention has been dedicated to
