Applications of omnidirectional ultraviolet (UV) detectors are numerous and promising. There is an increasing demand for flexible UV toward the realization intelligent weavable systems. Carbon fibers (CFs) used in due to their linear structure unique flexibility. In this work, a photoanode photoelectrochemical (PEC)-type photodetectors (PDs) based on wurtzite hexagonal-phase ZnO nanowires grown...

A methyl methanesulfonate sensitive mutant of Bacillus subtilis appears to lack the enzyme DNA polymerase I. The absence of polymerase I permits the detection of a second DNA polymerizing enzyme in the mutant. This second polymerase is inhibitable by sulfhydryl antagonists, and shows maximal activity on double-stranded DNA substrates with many single strand breaks. Poly[d(A-T)] is less efficien...

The use of liquid helium and neon as scintillators for neutrino detection is investigated. Several unique properties of these cryogens make them promising candidates for real-time solar neutrino spectroscopy: large ultraviolet scintillation yields from ionizing radiation, transparency to their own scintillation light, and low levels of radioactive impurities. When neutrinos scatter from electro...
