Silica films grown on Pd(100) were characterized by Auger electron spectroscopy, low-energy diffraction (LEED), and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). While no evidence of long-range order could be detected for below 600 K, STM images these nevertheless revealed flat surfaces through which the step-terrace structure substrate seen. Annealing in 10–6 Torr O2 above 975 K resulted crystalline bilayers that produced hexagonal LEED patterns with a periodicity twice one overlayer close-packed...
We investigate the adsorption of submicrometer bulk-synthesized polymer dumbbells to oil-water interfaces using freeze-fracture, shadow-casting (FreSCa) cryo-scanning electron microscopy. find that are amphiphilic and adsorb interface with a preferred orientation. Most particles in tilted configuration, polar apolar lobes intersecting pointing toward water oil, respectively. Some only one lobe attached interface. Moreover, we each has angle contact interface, identical all observed...
Protein adsorption and assembly at interfaces provide a potentially versatile route to create useful constructs for fluid compartmentalization. In this context, we consider the interfacial of bacterial biofilm protein, BslA, air–water oil–water interfaces. Densely packed, high modulus monolayers form interfaces, leading formation flattened sessile water drops. BslA forms elastic sheets production stable monodisperse oil-in-water microcapsules. By contrast, water-in-oil microcapsules are...
We investigate the mechanical behavior of particle-stabilized droplets using micropipette aspiration. observe that stabilized with amphiphilic dumbbell-shaped particles exhibit a two-stage response to increasing suction pressure. Droplets first drip, then wrinkle and buckle like an elastic shell. While have dramatic impact on mechanism failure, strength is only modestly increased. On other hand, coated molecular surfactant Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate are even weaker than bare droplets. In all...
The elastic response of suspended NbSe(3) nanowires is studied across the charge density wave phase transition. nanoscale dimensions resonator lead to a large resonant frequency (~10-100 MHz), bringing excited phonon in close proximity plasmon mode electronic condensate-a parameter window not accessible bulk systems. interaction between and modes strongly modifies properties at high frequencies. This manifested nanomechanics system as sharp peak temperature dependence modulus (relative...
Online shopping in the home category enables quick and convenient access to large catalog of products. In particular, users can simultaneously browse for functional requirements, such as size material, while evaluating aesthetic fit, color style, across hundreds product offerings. However, typical user flow requires navigating an e-commerce retailer's website first, setting search/filter parameters that may be generic, then landing on pages, one at a time, make decision. Upon purchase, "does...
Review imagery is crucial for helping online shoppers validate product information and garner context from unbiased reviewers. However, blind or low vision (BLV) shoppers, who routinely use screen readers, report challenges accessing review imagery, citing minimal to generic alt-text that often accompany these images. Contextual impacts the quality of a BLV shopper's browsing experience; our initial surveys additionally reveal want color features in descriptions imagery. We present AIDE, an...
Review imagery is a critical way to share products in authentic contexts. This visual method of showcasing product can help sighted people govern their purchasing decisions, as it include details not apparent the page and image. However, visually impaired are afforded same opportunity due lack image descriptions. Previous research has found that context impacts desired description; our studies have identified key features extract from review online retail context. In this paper, we present...
