In a previous article,[1] a theoretical analysis was developed to describe the infiltration of fiber preforms by a binary alloy, and its solution was given for unidirectional adiabatic infiltration under constant applied pressure. This article further deve ...
Restricted bioavailability of copper in certain environments can interfere with cellular respiration because copper is an essential cofactor of most terminal oxidases. The global response of the metabolically versatilebacterium and opportunistic pathogen P ...
Gold, silver and copper defects in germanium are modeled using density functional theory. The structures and electrical properties of the substitutional metals are calculated in excellent agreement with experiment. Interstitial Au, Ag and Cu are found to b ...
Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy (SECM) and copper staining are combined to achieve visualisation of proteins on surfaces. Proteins are adsorbed on a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane or on a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) surface and stained us ...
Charge-transfer (CT) salts such as copper-2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone (CuDDQ) are promising components of reversible resistive memory switching devices. In the study presented here, we report on the composition of CuDDQ layers grown from aceton ...
Maglev (>400 km/h) refer to Maglev such as the Japanese JR-Maglev MLX, the German Transrapid and the USA Inductrack. The Swissmetro Project, presenting a unique aspect of Maglev, is designed to work under partial vacuum (
Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy (SECM) is used in combination with copper labeling to visualize roteins on surfaces. Proteins are adsorbed on a poly(vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF) membrane and stained using a standard protocol involving copper salts. Th ...
Equilibrium geometries and electronic properties of neutral Cu-n (n = 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10) clusters are determined via first principles calculations which treat s and d electrons on an equal footing. Overall, we find ground state and local minimum structures ...
The low-pressure chem. vapor deposition of copper and platinum was studied on SiO2 substrates which had been locally prenucleated with ultrathin metal layers of Pt, Cu, Pd, Au, and W. These layers were between 0.1 and 30 .ANG. thick and were produced by va ...
