The electronic structure of Si-doped InyGa1-yAs1-xNx films on GaAs substrates, grown by nitrogen-plasma-assisted MBE, was examined by photoreflectance (PR) spectroscopy at temperatures between20 K and 300 K. The measured critical-point energies were

There has been great interest in recent years in using solution processible conjugated organic polymers as the active layers in semiconducting devices including field-effect transistors (FETs), light emitting diodes (LEDs), and photovoltaics (PVs). The

The self-adhesion behavior of an optically smooth poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) thin film (ca.. 100 nm) on different evaporated metal substrates has been investigated using a combinatorial method approach. In this investigation through high-throughput

Probing order in nanotube systems is of fundamental importance in devising applications of these tubes in field emission applications as well as components of composite materials. We demonstrate near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS)
A method is presented for generating approximate lattice Wannier functions (LWF) for lattice dynamics problems, using the dynamical matrix for a supercell as input. The lattice Wannier functions fit selected phonon frequencies and eigenvectors exactly, are

The assembly of terphenyldithiol (TPDT) and quaterphenyldithiol (QPDT) on gold and gallium arsenide from ethanol (EtOH), tetrahydrofuran (THF), and solutions consisting of both solvents was characterized by near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure

In situ hard X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at metal K-edges and soft XAS at O K-edge and metal L-edges have been carried out during the first charging process for the layered Li1-2Co1/3Ni1/3Mn1/3O2 cathode material. The metal K-edge XANES results
Incorporating discrete cell adhesion motifs onto substrates in a defined orientation with variable spacing and increasing concentration offers a robust strategy for measuring ligand dependent cell-material interactions and encouraging specific cell

Mechanical properties of ultra-thin (submicrometer) films coated on a substrate are paramount in many applications. One question arises as to whether the physical and mechanical properties of supported thin films in applications can be significantly

We recently reported on a new buckling-based metrology for probing the elastic modulus of thin polymer films. In this experimental geometry, a thin film of interest is transferred to a relatively thick elastic substrate, and buckling is induced by

Facile synthesis and detailed characterization of photo-polymerizable and biocompatible poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylates (PEGDM) and their hydrogels are described. Combined analyses of 1H NMR and MALDI-TOF MS confirmed the formation of prepolymers of
