Between June 1, 2000 and September 30, 2000, 32 precipitation events were sampled near Telluride, CO at an elevation of 3200 m. The wet deposition site was operated following protocols of the Atmospheric Integrated Research Monitoring Network (AIRMoN), a network of the National Atmospheric Deposition Network (NADP). Inorganic nitrogen deposition at the Telluride site of 1.41 kg ha(-1) during th...

Using the helicon nuclear-spin interaction we have detected NMR in the bulk of lead telluride single crystals. In p-type material, the 207Pb resonance has been studied in detail. The Knight shift of 207Pb in y-type PbTe is strong and negative, indicating a negative g11 value. The gll value at the band edge and the electron density on the Pb site are determined. The wave functions at the valence...

The single-crystalline Sb2Te3 nanobelts were successfully synthesized by a novel and convenient surfactant-assisted hydrothermal approach. The ionic surfactant AOT acted as the shape controller in the synthetic process. We believe that this synthetic route could be applied to obtain other low-dimensional semiconducting telluride nanostructures.

A coordination-responsive tellurium containing film was fabricated for controlled release. The coordination chemistry between telluride molecules and cisplatin was utilized for the loading of cisplatin, while competitive ligands were used for triggered release. This work could enrich the coordination responsive system and further tune the release kinetics of cisplatin.
