A resistive switching memory fabricated by using an in situ current-induced oxidization process on a single crystal metallic nanowire is demonstrated Yu-Lun Chueh and co-workers article number 2000252. single-crystal Cu (NW) found to be the best material with stable behaviors including reversible up 100 cycles large ON/OFF ratio of >103 low voltages <0.5.

Co 75 Fe 25 (at. %) alloy films of 100 nm thickness are prepared on MgO(001) and (110) single-crystal substrates. A (001) bcc film is epitaxially grown the substrate, whereas a (211) bi-crystalline formed MgO(110) substrate. The out-of-plane in-plane lattice spacings in agreement with bulk values within small differences less than 1%. orientation dispersions smaller 2°. These results show that ...

The catalytic activation of CO single crystal surfaces is reviewed. Examples are provided which demonstrate the relevance of single crystal studies for modeling the behavior of high surface area supported catalysts. The coupling of an apparatus for the measurement of reaction kinetics at elevated pressures with an ultrahigh vacuum system for surface analysis allows detailed study of structure s...

A unique 4-fold interpenetrated (10,3)-b copper(II) framework exhibits reversible dehydration and rehydration in a single-crystal-to-single-crystal (SC-SC) process, and the dehydrated material can encapsulate CH(3)OH molecules, again in a SC-SC fashion, and shows selective adsorption of H(2) and CO(2) over N(2).
