The use of thin magnetic film memories for high speed computers has been well established. More recently, efforts have been made to adapt thin-film memory elements for operation in a phase script mode by using drive fields at two different frequencies to switch and read the state of the memory element. The resulting memory system is uniquely suited for operation in a parametron computer where i...

A kinematic theory of reflection high energy electron diffraction ~RHEED! is presented for textured polycrystalline thin films. RHEED patterns are calculated for arbitrary texture situations and for any general crystallographic orientation that may be encountered in thin-film growth. It is shown that the RHEED pattern can be used as a fast and convenient tool for in situ texture characterizatio...

In lock-in thermography the thermal diffusivity can be obtained from the slope of the linear relation between the phase of the surface temperature and the distance to the heating spot. However, in the case of thin samples, the linearity is not found. In this work we identify heat conduction to the surrounding gas as the mechanism responsible for the lost of linearity. Accordingly accurate measu...

Objective(s): The aim of present study is to formulate mefenamic acid transdermal gel based on vesicular drug delivery approaches.Materials and Methods: For the preparation of mefenamic acid transdermal gel, transfersomes were selected as colloidal carriers. Transfersomes were prepared by hand shaking and thin film hydration techniques. The obtained transfersomes were characterized for vesicula...

Recently, it has been shown that the size quantization of itinerant electrons in an ultra thin metal film plays an important role in the early formation stages and kinetic stabiliy of thin films. This Quantum Size Effect(QSE) also brings about a lot of new interesting physical and chemical properties of thin film. In this paper, I will give a brief introduction to the mechanism of QSE and talk ...

A curvilinear thin film model is used to simulate the motion of droplets on a virtual leaf surface, with a view to better understand the retention of agricultural sprays on plants. The governing model, adapted from Roy et al. (2002 J. Fluid Mech. 454, 235-261 (doi:10.1017/S0022112001007133)) with the addition of a disjoining pressure term, describes the gravity- and curvature-driven flow of a s...

a novel zr,ce-tio2/sio2 nanocomposite thin film was successfully prepared with various amounts of zr4+ and ce4+ as codopant ions for self-cleaning applications. a thin film was coated on a tile substrate by dip-coating and porous zr,ce-tio2/sio2 was obtained after heat treatment for 2 hours at 500 °c. the sem images and xrd pattern showed that the optimum amount of doping ions in relation to ti...

Large-area and aligned copper oxide nanowires have been synthesized by thermal annealing of copper thin films deposited onto silicon substrate. The effects of the film deposition method, annealing temperature, film thickness, annealing gas, and patterning by photolithography are systematically investigated. Long and aligned nanowires can only be formed within a narrow temperature range from 400...
