Electronic Structure and Chemistry of Iron-Based Metal Oxide Nanostructured Materials: A NEXAFS Investigation of BiFeO3, Bi2Fe4O9, a-Fe2O3, g-Fe2O3, and Fe/Fe3O4

November 6, 2008
Author(s)
Tae-Jin Park, S Sambasivan, Daniel A. Fischer, R Ramesh, J A. Misewich, S S. Wong
We present a systematic and detailed Near Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (NEXAFS) experimental investigation of the electronic structure and chemistry of iron-based metal oxide nanostructured (FeMONS) materials including BiFeO3, Bi2Fe4O9, a-Fe2O3, ?-

Gradient Nanofiber Scaffold Libraries for Tissue Regeneration by Electrospinning

October 15, 2008
Author(s)
Carl G. Simon Jr., Murugan Ramalingam, Marian F. Young, Vinoy Thomas
Functional tissue engineering is a rapidly emerging biomedical field that holds great potential for healthcare in addressing the gap between need and availability of donor tissues and organs. The dogma in the field of tissue engineering is to harvest a

Impact of Sucrose Level on Storage Stability of Proteins in Freeze-Dried Solids: II. Correlation of Aggregation Rate with Protein Structure and Molecular Mobility

October 13, 2008
Author(s)
Bingquan S. Wang, Serguei Tchessalov, Marcus T. Cicerone, Nicholas W. Warne, Michael Pikal
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of sucrose level on storage stability of dried proteins and thus better understand the mechanism of protein stabilization by disaccharides in lyophilized products. Three IgG1 fusion proteins and two

Multi-sample micro-slit rheometry

September 17, 2008
Author(s)
Doyoung Moon, Anthony J. Bur, Kalman D. Migler
We have developed a multi-sample micro-slit rheometer MMR which is capable of measurements over a broad range of temperatures, viscosities and shear rates. The instrument is mechanically simple as the flow is generated by external gas pressure and the

Characterization of Laminin on Silanized Polydimethylsiloxane

August 21, 2008
Author(s)
Joy P. Dunkers, Lisa M. Hughes, Hae-Jeong Lee, Marvi Matos, Marcus T. Cicerone
In this work, we characterize a protein surface on a flexible polydimethylsiloxane substrate (PDMS) capable of undergoing strain. We compare the results from two different surface treatments: physically adsorbed laminin on PDMS and laminin deposited on

Characterization of Monolayer Formation on Aluminum-Doped Zinc Oxide Thin Films

August 21, 2008
Author(s)
C Rhodes, S E. Lappi, Daniel A. Fischer, S Sambasivan, Jan Genzer, S Franzen
The optical and electronic properties of aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films on a glass substrate have been investigated experimentally and theoretically. Optical studies with coupling in the Kretschmann configuration reveal an angle-dependent

Magnetic Resonance Microscopy of Collagen Mineralization

August 1, 2008
Author(s)
Ingrid E. Chesnick, Jeffrey T. Mason, Anthony A. Giuseppetti, Naomi Eidelman, Kimberlee Potter
A model mineralizing system was subjected to magnetic resonance microscopy (MRM), to investigate how water proton transverse (T2) relaxation times and magnetization transfer ratios (MTRs) can be applied to monitor collagen mineralization. In our model

Nature of Transition Layers at the SiO 2 /SiC Interface

July 14, 2008
Author(s)
T Zheleva, Aivars Lelis, G Duscher, F Liu, Igor Levin, M Das
Electrical performance of SiC-based microelectronic devices is strongly affected by the densities of interfacial traps introduced by the chemical and structural changes at the SiO2/SiC interfaces during processing. We analyzed the structure and chemistry

Roughness-Induced Superhydrophobicity: A Way to Design Non-Adhesive Surfaces

July 4, 2008
Author(s)
Michael Nosonovsky, Bharat Bhushan
Non-adhesive and water-repellent surfaces are required for many tribological applications. Roughness-induced superhydrophobicty has been suggested as a way to reduce adhesion and stiction. In this paper, the theory of roughness-induced superhydrophobicity
