Nanometer-sized particles of W are of interest in semiconductor device research, where such particles may store electrons inside heteroepitaxially defined structures. In this paper, we present results concerning W particles produced by thermal decomposition of tungsten hexacarbonyl. By the described method, it was possible to produce size-selected, single-crystalline W particles in the size range

Nanocrystals of indium phosphide, with diameters of around 10nm, have been produced via an aerosol route. The method is based on the formation of monodisperse indium droplets and the subsequent reaction with phosphine at elevated temperature. The size of the final InP nanocrystal is self-limited by the size of the introduced size-selected In droplet. This size can be tuned carefully, thus this met

Single-electron transistors (SET) rely for their functionality on extreme control of lithography and lateral positioning as well as of properties of the building blocks from which the devices are built. By an aerosol-based nanoparticle fabrication we can prepare nanocrystals down to sub-10nm dimensions with metallic or semiconducting character, as well as having a core + shell design for definitio

In this paper we present a fabrication route to produce size-selected III-V semiconductor nanocrystals via a simple, reliable, and efficient aerosol route. Since this approach includes the reaction of aerosol particles and a self-organized growth of a new compound, all in the aerosol phase, we call this process aerotaxy. Size-selected nanocrystals of different III-V compounds in a diameter range b

An investigation on the different levels of interpretation of medieval architectural iconography. The architecture and sculpture of Lund cathedral is related to function, history, politics and religion.

This research aims to encourage interdisciplinary and inter-institutionalcollaborative work through the design and manufacture of an electricvehicle. The goal is to design an experimental vehicle concept in order toimprove sustainable mobility in Bogotá.Industrial Center of Maintenance and Manufacturing CIMM, SENABoyacá, is manufacturing the prototype designed by the team ofresearchers, while priv

Laminar burning velocities of syngas/air premixed flames, varying with H2/CO ratio (from 5/95 to 75/25) and N2 or CO2 dilution rate (from 0% to 60%), were accurately measured using a Teflon coated Heat Flux burner and OH-PLIF based Bunsen flame method. Experiments were carried out at atmospheric pressure and room temperature, with fuel/air equivalence ratios ranging from fuel-lean to fuel-rich. Co

Car-sharing systems with electric vehicles are an alternativeto reduce commuting times in big cities and also to mitigateair pollution. Car-sharing exists in 1100 cities around theworld. These systems have had positive effects in the cities,replacing between 9 and 23 private vehicles for each car. Thisdocument proposes a public car-sharing system for Bogotá.The article focuses on the design and ma

A simple experiment to characterize the gating properties of X-ray area detectors using pulsed X-ray sources is presented. For a number of time-resolved experiments the gating uniformity of area detectors is important. Relative gating delays between individual modules and readout chips of PILATUS2 series area X-ray detectors have been observed. For three modules of a PILATUS300K-W unit the maximum

We investigated the intrinsic reactivity of CO on single-layer and multilayer PdO(101) grown on Pd(100) using temperature-programmed reaction spectroscopy (TPRS) and reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS) experiments, as well as density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We find that CO binds more strongly on multilayer than single-layer PdO(101) (∼119 kJ/mol vs 43 kJ/mol), and tha

Alloy nanoparticles on oxide supports are widely used as heterogeneous catalysts in reactions involving oxygen. Here we discuss the oxidation behavior of Pd-Rh alloy nanoparticles on MgAl 2 O 4 (001) supports with a particle diameter from 6-11 nm. As an In si

We have investigated the atomic structure of graphene/Ir(111) supported platinum clusters with on average fewer than 40 atoms by means of surface x-ray diffraction (SXRD), grazing incidence small angle x-ray scattering (GISAXS), and normal incidence x-ray standing waves (NIXSW) measurements, in comparison with density functional theory calculations (DFT). GISAXS revealed that the clusters with 1.3

Studies of the structural dynamics of solids can improve our understanding of atomic motion in materials, and may thus help in the manufacture of new devices or the development of materials with novel structures and properties. Ultrashort laser pulses, a few tens of femtoseconds long, can deliver high energies (mJ–kJ). This energy is absorbed by the electrons in a solid material, leading to a rapi

myo-Inositol hexaphosphate, the salt of myo-inositol hexaphosphoric acid (IP6), is a common constituent of many plant foods, such as cereals and legumes. IP6 interacts with mineral elements, influencing their bioavailability. Processed foods contain a mixture of different inositol phosphates, i.e., IP6 and its degradation products with five or less phosphate groups (IP5-IP1). The interaction of th

PURPOSE: Disruption of splicing motifs by genetic variants can affect the correct generation of mature mRNA molecules leading to aberrant transcripts. In some cases, variants may alter the physiological transcription profile composed of several transcripts, and an accurate in vitro evaluation is crucial to establish their pathogenicity. In this study, we have characterized a novel PALB2 variant c.
