Electrical resistivities of heavily doped polyacetylene and polypyrrole exhibit a wide range temperature variation as function the degree disorder. Thermal activation behavior is found for strongly disordered state, while weak dependence down to mK region weakly state. In intermediate we resistivity represented by logT dependence, in manner similar amorphous metals. As cause possibility scattering via interaction with molecular configurations possessing low-energy internal degrees freedom considered.
This review-oriented paper presents a simplified model of anisotropic etching crystalline silicon for the three principal orientations (1 1 1), 0) and 0 0), including their vicinal surfaces. The combines pit nucleation step flow with micromasking diffusion phenomena in order to explain major morphologic features changes concentration. It also qualitatively explains orientation concentration dependence etch rate. We conclude that shallow round pits on elongated zigzag structures each which...
This paper reports on the results of comparing different types tensile testing methods that are used to evaluate thin-film properties. We tested same material fabricated a single wafer using techniques at five research institutions. The were in way specimen was gripped. Materials single-crystal silicon (SCS), polysilicon, nickel, and titanium films. Specimens with three shapes processed through fabrication steps. strength, fracture strain, Young's modulus films measured compared. values...
We combine spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), kinetic Monte Carlo simulations (KMC) and convex corner undercutting analysis in order to characterize explain the effect of addition small amounts surfactant alkaline aqueous solutions, such as Triton X-100 tetra methyl ammonium hydroxide (TMAH). propose that is adsorbed at silicon–etchant interface a thin layer, acting filter moderates surface reactivity by reducing amount reactant molecules reach...

Summary YM-60828 was found to potently inhibit human factor Xa following oral administration. showed high affinity for (Ki = 1.3 μM), but did not affect thrombin > 100 μM). doubled clotting time, prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin (APTT) at 0.10, 0.21, 0.24 μM, respectively. Importantly, it prolong μM. also inhibited in the prothrombinase complex with an IC50 value of 7.7 nM. In addition its anticoagulant activity, platelet aggregation induced by various agonists...
In order to overcome the limitation of cell area 4F/sup 2/ per bit in conventional NAND flash memory cells, stacked-surrounding gate transistor (S-SGT) structured is proposed. This newly achieves a 2//N bit, where N number stacked cells one silicon pillar, without using multibit technology. The S-SGT consisting two pillar less than 50% smallest reported cell. novel are fabricated by vertical self-aligned processes 0.2 /spl mu/m design rule. can be programmed and erased uniform injection...
The fabrication of micro- and nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS) is based on a wide variety growth etching technologies sequentially applied throughout process flows which may involve dozen or more steps, their realistic simulation having become an essential part the overall design. By focusing in anisotropic as complex example microfabrication, this paper, we show how to solve analytically time evolution continuous cellular automaton method, thus providing particularly suitable...
Ultrafast fluorescence quenching of flavin in flavodoxin from Megasphaera elsdenii was investigated by means a up-conversion method. Fluorescence lifetimes M. were estimated to be τ1 ∼ 165 fs (0.97%) and τ2 10 ps (0.03%). Correlation photoinduced electron-transfer rates (kET) with averaged distances (Dav) between isoalloxazine nearby tryptophan or tyrosine examined obtained an empirical equation ln kET vs Dav nonlinear least-squares method using reported data together elsdenii. The values...
We developed a novel catheter-type flow sensor for measuring the aspirated- and inspired-air characteristics trans-bronchially. An on-wall in-tube thermal is mounted inside tube, it used as measurement tool in bronchoscope. The external diameter of tube less than few mm, therefore, can evaluate small bronchial region. newly fabrication process to miniaturize 2.0 mm by using heat shrinkable tube. A film fabricated photolithography was inserted into hand. By applying shrinking process,...
In this work, the orientation-dependent adsorption of surfactant molecules on silicon surface during etching in surfactant-added tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) is investigated.

A new type of micro fingerprint sensor was proposed and the sensing principle demonstrated using heaters as elements. The arrayed elements were resistors made sputtered 200 nm thick platinum film on a 50 µm flexible polyimide substrate. temperature coefficient resistance 0.0029 (K−1) showed good linearity. Because small thermal capacity effective isolation, heater high sensitivity short response time to applied power. By applying pulsed voltage 5.4 V at ambient air, could be increased from...
