    Notes: Analogous to the localization of the wave function of an electron in a random potential (Anderson localization), in the macroscopic system of magnetoelastic waves (MEWs) propagating in a highly magnetostrictive string exhibiting the giant ΔE effect, the piling-up of MEWs into a wave-packet in a restricted small region of the string is expected. This wave-packet is subject to hopping in a discontinuous wave by applying a magnetic field due to the change in the local elastic states caused by the ΔE effect. From this expectation, a theoretical analysis was performed focusing on the derivation of localization conditions of MEWs. The analysis was carried out using a one-dimensional string model having high magnetostriction. The string is assumed to be composed of random chains with (1) alloy-type disorder (random weights of masses with equal spacings) and (2) liquid-type disorder (random spacings of masses with equal weights). For the elastic and magnetoelastic constants of the string, the value of Fe78Si10B12 amorphous wire (Unitika) were used in the calculations. No substantial changes in the localization states were not recognized in both modes. The analysis revealed that, when the change of the apparent Young's modulus with magnetic field ΔE is 28%, the localized MEWs are subject to hopping conserving their wave identities (eigenfrequencies and eigenstates). This result in considered to originate from the changes in the disorder conditions to support the localization of MEWs. To confirm the above theoretical prediction experimentally, MEW properties have been measured by using Fe78Si10B12 amorphous wires connecting weights made of leads to form the random chain structure. The localized MEWs are, indeed, observed by detecting the local vibrations of the wires. Theoretical and experimental results will be presented in detail at the conference. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Organic thin films of copper-phthalocyanine (CuPc) and aluminum tris-8-hydroxyquinline (Alq3) were fabricated via KrF laser ablation. In spite of poor crystallinity exhibited in the reconstructed organic films, the CuPc film still works as a hole-transport layer in electroluminescence cells based on the CuPc and Alq3 layers. Electroluminescence at ∼500 nm was obtained with a low initiation voltage of ∼12 V. There is no significant difference in electroluminescence performance for devices fabricated via laser ablation and thermal evaporation. Emission at ∼600 nm caused by energy transfer from Alq3 to 4-(Dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-(p-dimethylaminostyryl)-4H-pyran (DCM) is also observed from a DCM-doped Alq3 emission layer. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have developed a very controllable fabrication process of an extremely narrow (∼10 nm) quantum wire metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) on a separation-by-implanted-oxygen (SIMOX) substrate using anisotropic etching and selective oxidation technique. The drain current versus gate voltage characteristics show oscillations caused by Coulomb blockade even at room temperature. The oscillations split into several sharp peaks when the temperature is decreased, indicating that the channel is separated by several serial coupled quantum dots and that the quantum levels of these dots correspond to the observed fine peaks. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract To investigate the effect of fructose ingestion on sorbitol and fructose 3-phosphate (F3P) in erythrocytes, we administered 50 g fructose with and without treatment with an aldose reductase inhibitor, epalrestat, to seven healthy, normal-glucose-tolerant, male volunteers aged 20–43 years. The same subjects were given 50 g glucose on another day. The sorbitol and F3P contents in their erythrocytes increased significantly, reaching peak levels at 60 min and 180 min, respectively, following fructose ingestion. On the other hand, glucose ingestion did not cause any statistically significant change in sorbitol content in their erythrocytes, although it significantly elevated their F3P content. Treatment with epalrestat had no significant effect on incremental changes in erythrocyte sorbitol and F3P content following fructose ingestion. This suggests that oral fructose may be converted directly to sorbitol and F3P in erythrocytes instead of being converted via glucose. Thus, the dietary intake of fructose may affect the concentrations of sorbitol and F3P in erythrocytes in normal men.

    Notes: Abstract Carrot (Daucus carota L.) embryogenic callus (EC) loses its embryogenic competence and becomes nonembryogenic callus (NC) during long-term culture. With the loss of embryogenic competence, the cell clusters become smaller and the extent of intercellular attachments is reduced. Pectic fractions prepared from EC and NC were separated into two subfractions by gel filtration. A difference in sugar composition between EC and NC was found only in the high-molecular-mass (ca. 1300 kDa) subfraction, and the ratio of the amount of arabinose to that of galactose (Ara/Gal) was strongly and positively correlated with the size of cell clusters in several different cultures. From the results of sugar-composition and methylation analyses, and the results of treatment with exo-arabinanase, models of the neutral sugar chains of pectins from EC and NC are proposed. Both neutral sugar chains are composed of three regions. The basal region is composed of linearly linked arabinan 5-Araf〉 moieties in both types of callus. The middle galactan region is composed of 6-linked galactose, some of which branches at the 3 and 4 positions, and this region is larger and more frequently branched in NC than in EC. Finally, the terminal arabinan region is composed of 5-linked arabinose, branched at the 3 position, and the size of the terminal arabinan is larger in EC than in NC. The significance of the neutral sugar chains of pectins in the interaction of cell wall components and intercellular attachment is discussed.
