    Notes: We discuss the elastic coherent resistances of small contacts or constrictions between reservoirs. These resistances show an oscillatory behavior versus contact size, increase when the size of the contact decreases, and are dominant over the inelastic or residual resistances for realistic values of resistivities, temperature, and purity.

    Notes: We present a new way to observe the surface domain distribution of a magnetic sample at a submicrometer scale. This magnetic microscopy is based on the idea of measuring magnetic forces with the recently developed atomic force microscope (AFM). We study the magnetic forces involved in the interaction between a single-domain microtip and the sample surface magnetic domains. The influence of the experimental conditions on the performance of the AFM as a magnetic profiling device is also discussed. Preliminary experimental results are reported.

    Notes: Recently, we have proposed1 a new method to obtain information about local surface magnetic properties, based on the idea of measuring magnetic forces with an STM force microscope.2 In this work, we present a theoretical analysis of the magnetic topography as despicted by this magnetic force microscope (MFM). In order to study the resolution and practical limits of this new technique, we simulate MFM results for different magnetic configurations. The influence of surface roughness on the magnetic resolution is also discussed. We show that lateral resolutions of 0.01 μm can be achieved with this technique. Recent MFM experiments are also analyzed.

    Notes: We have studied the physical properties of high Tc Y-Ba-Cu-Ox superconducting materials with levitation, ac susceptibility, macroscopic resistivity, resistivity as measured by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and Hall effect. Levitation experiments show that the powder of the as-prepared material does not levitate at liquid nitrogen while pellets and powders that have been heated above 450 °C do levitate (are superconducting). These experiments seem to indicate that clustering and intimate contact of fine grains are necessary for levitating. The ac susceptibility experiments show that diamagnetism is extremely sensitive to pellet density. The higher the density and the smaller the field amplitude the less diamagnetic is the system. This is interpreted as evidence for a surface, not a bulk effect. Resistivity at 17 °C measured with macroscopic contacts is of the order of 10 Ω cm. When measured with microscopic STM contacts, a clear semiconducting behavior is observed. This observation does not preclude grain boundary regions with metallic conductivity. We conjecture that the bulk of the grain is semiconducting with a conducting percolative network of grain boundaries that is the source of the superconductivity. We propose a model of a superconductor-metal-superconductor percolative network based on the excitonic model of Allender, Bray, and Bardeen to explain the high values of Tc. Hall measurements show large effective masses in agreement with an excitonic model.

    Notes: The aim of the study was to characterize and assess the maturation process of the barrier function in a reconstituted human epidermis (REp) cultivated in a chemically defined medium. For this purpose histo-morphological analysis, percutaneous absorption studies and non-invasive measurements were performed. In order to understand the time course of the barrier development, REp cultivated from the same pool of normal human keratinocytes were harvested and measured after several increasing periods of exposure at the air–liquid interface. From these results we concluded that a maturation period of at least 16 days at the air–liquid interface was required for an optimal barrier function development of REp. At this time point, the permeability of the skin cultures for caffeine (CAF) was 20–25-fold higher than that of normal human skin (NHS) biopsies. Non-invasive measurements of skin water content, transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and pH were achieved after the same period of time. Results showed that the stratum corneum (SC) of REp was slightly more hydrated than that of ex vivo and in vivo, human skin. TEWL was slightly higher through REp than through NHS, and the pH of the REp models was very close to that of in vivo, normal human skin. In the latter part, assuming that this type of model could be routinely used, we quantified over a 1-year period the barrier function variability of this skin culture model between batches. The satisfactory results obtained with a 20% coefficient of variation indicated that this REp model has a consistent and reproducible barrier function. This leads us to suggest that the skin model might be considered an alternative membrane to normal human skin for permeation screening tests.

    Notes: The aim of this study was to compare the characteristics of an O/W emulsion and a W/O/W emulsion, formulated with similar ingredients. The physical properties of these two types of vehicles were characterized first. Using three types of in vitro models, human skin biopsies, nitrate acetate cellulose membranes and human reconstituted epidermis, the delivery potential of each vehicle for one hydrophilic drug, caffeine, was compared. The assessment of physical parameters, such as particle size, conductivity and rheological behavior enabled the nature of the test emulsions to be clearly identified. Clear differences were observed in the ability of each type of emulsion to deliver caffeine. Whatever the nature of the membrane used for the pharmacokinetic study, the absorption of caffeine was roughly two-fold lower (2.6 for human skin) when the W/O/W multiple emulsion was used as the vehicle. The concomitant determination of physical and kinetic properties of these two test emulsions allowed the W/O/W multiple emulsion and a simple O/W emulsion to be clearly differentiated.

    Notes: We present a theory that should explain the operation of the apertureless near-field optical microscope in the limit of smooth variations of both the refractive index and the corrugation of the object. Special emphasis is made on ultimate resolution and the recent experiments by F. Zenhausern, M. P. O'Boyle, and K.H. Wickramasinghe [Appl. Phys. Lett. 65, 1623 (1994)]. We show that, in order to obtain resolution better than 7 nm, the variation of the object refractive index has to satisfy severe conditions. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: This paper shows that by using nanotips as nanosources of electrons, Fresnel diffraction by nano-objects is observed in a low-energy-electron projection microscope without any magnetic field shielding. The results shown are consistent with the Aharonov-Bohm effect and Lorentz force deviation due to the magnetic stray fields. © 1994 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: In this letter, we report on the extremely narrow energy distributions that can be obtained in field emission from W and Pt nanotips. For example, the measured full width at half-maximum for a Pt nanotip can be as low as 64 meV at 80 K and 100 meV at room temperature. Moreover, these emitted beams are autocollimated to a 4° opening and have hours of stability for a current of ∼1 nA due to the fact that the emission comes from one atom. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
