Cobalt silicide characterization
Decreasing feature sizes of advanced ULSI (Ultra large-scale integrated) devices are driven by a desire for improve device performance and an increase in the number of devices on a single wafer. Small feature sizes cause increased resistance, which leads to degraded device performances. Silicides …

Characterization of Novel Pyroelectrics
The change of the spontaneous polarization due to a change of temperature is known as the pyroelectric effect and is restricted to crystalline, non-centrosymmetric and polar matter. Its main application is the utilization in infrared radiation sensors, but usage for waste heat energy harvesting or …

Nanomechanical characterization of asphalt
In this study, asphalt binder and asphalt concrete (AC) materials are characterized using laboratory nanoindentation testing and mechanical models. Traditionally, laboratory nanoindentation test data is analyzed using the Oliver-Pharr method to determine elastic modulus and hardness of materials. …

Three Studies in Characterization
<p>THE WOMEN OF BEN JONSON IN <em>EPICOENE</em> AND <em>BARTHOLOMEW</em> <em>FAIR</em>.<em> </em>This paper compares and contrasts the method variations that cause the women of <em>Epicoene</em> to be less interesting and more stereotyped than those of <em>Bartholomew Fair.</em></p> <p>Basically, …

Physicochemical Characterization of Creatine
Creatine is a naturally occurring guanidino compound. It is found in all types of muscle tissues, most of which are present in skeletal muscle and brain. Creatine in its free or phosphrylated forms plays an important role in the regulation and homeostasis of muscle energy metabolism. It appears to …

Characterization of Tumorigenic Proteins
The 17K, 84K, and 94K SV40 T antigens from SV40 permissive and transformed cells were analyzed by tryptic peptide mapping on ion exchange columns. The tryptic peptides were mapped relative to the SV40 DNA and to their known functions. The aminotermini of the 17K, 84K and 94K T antigens are …

Biofuels supply chain characterization
Ethanol can be made from agricultural residues like wheat straw and from crops dedicated to energy use, like switchgrass. We study the logistics aspects of this transformation and determine the main characteristics of the supply chain making ethanol from cellulose. Important to the final …

Characterization of anodic bonding
Anodic bonding is a common process used in MicroElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS) device fabrication and packaging. Polycrystalline chemical vapor deposited (CVD) silicon carbide (SiC) is emerging as a new MEMS device and packaging material because of its excellent material properties including high …

Characterization of optical interconnects
Interconnect has become a major issue in deep sub-micron technology. Even with copper and low-k dielectrics, parasitic effects of interconnects will eventually impede advances in integrated electronics. One technique that has the potential to provide a paradigm shift is optics. This project …

Characterization of unstructured video
… parts. First, we study features and models for characterization of video. Examples are VideoBook with its extensions and Hidden Markov Models for video analysis. Secondly, we examine clustering as an approach for characterization of unstructured video. Clustering alleviates some of the common …

Performance Characterization of USRPs
Software Defined Radios (SDRs) are systems in which components such as filters, modulators, demodulators, etc., typically implemented in hardware are instead implemented in software. Thus, SDR systems shift signal processing from analog to digital domain. The signal processing is performed in …

NMR characterization of a diiron macrocycle and structural characterization of a diketo derivative
<p>The time-dependent visible spectra and the crystal structure of [Fe<sub>2</sub>(C<sub>20</sub>H<sub>24</sub>N<sub>8</sub>O<sub>2</sub>)(CH<sub>3</sub>CN)<sub>4</sub>]·PF<sub>6</sub> (diketo-dimer) were studied. The spectra showed that the most significant chemistry occurred during the initial …

Protein Characterization by Mass Spectrometry
… to develop methods that facilitate protein characterization. This thesis utilizes matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization and electrospray ionization MS to explore protein structure. Starting at the 'primary' level of protein structure, an approach is developed to aid in the …

Characterization of fluorinated carbon nanotubes
Reaction temperatures and time are probed to get the optimal fluorination conditions in order to produce C2F carbon nanotubes. Possible fluorotube structures are optimized with molecular mechanics calculation. Results show that fluorines would like to add along the circumference of the tubes …

Metabolomic characterization of Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system with a strong autoimmune component. MS is the most common cause of non-traumatic acquired neurological disability in young adults with a particularly high incidence in Sardinia. Several aspects still represent …
