    Notes: Studies of superconductivity and flux pinning were carried out on (Bi1.64Pb0.36)Sr2Ca1−xYxCu2O8+y (x=0, 0.05, 0.11, 0.33) single crystals grown by the self-flux method. X-ray diffraction, transport, and magnetic measurements were performed for purposes of characterization. X-ray analysis revealed that the c lattice parameter systemically decreases as the Y doping level increases. The superconducting transition temperature Tc decreases from 80 to 30 K as x increases. A strong annealing effect on Tc and superconducting volume has been observed. Resistance measurements show that x=0.33 samples are semiconductive over a wide temperature range between 4.2 and 300 K for the as-grown state, but become metallic with Tc of 65–70 K after air or oxygen annealing. Flux pinning was studied by measuring the hysteresis loop at different temperatures and different fields. A peak effect was observed in all the codoped samples. Results show that at low temperatures, the peak field is smaller than in solely Pb doped crystals and decreases as x increases (x〉0.1). However, the peak field at high temperature for the x=0.05 sample is higher than in heavily Pb doped Bi2212 crystals, indicative of a strong pinning due to the codoping. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Hole-initiated avalanche multiplication is investigated using an AlGaAs/InGaAs p-n-p heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT). Both experimental measurements and theoretical calculation are used to determine the avalanche multiplication factor. A large departure is observed at low electric field when comparison is made between the measured data and theoretical results obtained from the standard ionization model. The comparison shows that the conventional impact ionization model, based on local electric field, substantially overestimates the hole avalanche multiplication factor Mp−1 in the AlGaAs/InGaAs p-n-p HBT, where a significant dead space effect occurs in the collector space-charge region. A simple correction model for the dead space is proposed, that allows the multiplication to be accurately predicted, even in a heavily doped structure. Based on this model, multiplication characteristics for different threshold energy of the hole are calculated. A threshold energy of 2.5 eV was determined to be suitable for describing the hole-initiated impact ionization process. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Single-crystalline Bi nanowires with diameters ranging from 20 to 70 nm were prepared by electrodeposition using nanoporous aluminum oxide membranes rather than the more usual track-etched polycarbonate membranes. X-ray diffraction and selected area electron diffraction investigations revealed that the nanowires are essentially single crystalline and highly oriented. The temperature dependence of zero-field resistance of different diameter nanowires indicated that these Bi nanowires undergo a semimetal–semiconductor transition due to two-dimensional quantum confinement effects. The resistance maximum was observed at 50 K in zero magnetic field for 20 nm Bi nanowires, while the resistance minimum at 258 K for 50 nm Bi nanowires, due to the quantum size effect. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have investigated the performance of conjugated polymer light emitting diodes (LEDs) as their active areas are reduced to dimensions typical for pixellated displays. We find that by reducing the active diameter of the device from our standard size (1.5×3 mm) to 50 μm, the current density that can be sustained before LED failure increases by a factor of 9. This increase in current density is mirrored by similar increases in maximum LED brightness. We propose that such effects occur due to improved thermal management in small area devices. Using pulsed driving schemes, devices with a diameter of 50 μm sustained current densities of 5.1 MA m−2, and have emitted electroluminescence with a brightness of 6.5 Mcd m−2. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Fluorinated amorphous-carbon (a-CFx) films deposited by plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor deposition were investigated by Fourier transform infrared transmission spectroscopy and Rutherford backscattering. The proportionality constant between the fluorine concentration and the integrated absorption of C–F vibration modes is 3.52±0.3×1019 cm−2, and is constant within experimental uncertainty over a wide range of processing conditions. It is shown that the fluorine content can be accurately determined from the infrared absorption spectrum of a-CFx films. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Ordered semiconductor In2O3 nanowire arrays are uniformly assembled into hexagonally ordered nanochannels of anodic alumina membranes (AAMs) by electrodeposition and oxidizing methods. Their microstructures were characterized by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. A blue-green photoluminescence (PL) band in the wavelength range of 300–650 nm was observed in the In2O3/AAM assembly system. The PL intensity and peak position depend on the annealing temperature, which is mainly attributed to the singly ionized oxygen vacancy in the In2O3 nanowire array system. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: : Ammonia ion-selective electrode (ISE) measurements, reported as apparent ammonia, were correlated to expert sensory assessments of 6 different fish species stored on ice and at room temperature. Total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), trimethylamine nitrogen (TMA-N), and apparent ammonia showed the same development trend during storage. ISE measurements and TVB concentrations had a correlation of r2= 0.92. Sensory assessment, using a 1- to 100-mm line scale with values 〉 50 considered unacceptable, resulted in an r2between sensory scores and ISE measurements of 0.78. Regression analysis predicted 19.6 mg/100 g of apparent ammonia in fish tissue at the sensory limit of 50, regardless of storage conditions. ISE measurements could be used in predicting borderline quality and decomposition.

    Notes: Powdery mildew (caused by Erysiphe graminis) and yellow rust (caused by Puccinia striiformis) are the two most serious wheat diseases found in China. Rye chromosomes, carrying genes for resistance to these diseases, were introduced into common wheat in two generations using chromosome engineering and anther culture. The F1 hybrids from a cross involving a hexaploid triticale (×Triticosecale Wittmack) בChinese Spring’ nulli-tetrasomic N6DT6A wheat aneuploid line were anther cultured and doubled-haploid plants were regenerated. Using genomic in situ hybridization, C-banding and biochemical marker analyses, one of the anther-cultured lines (ZH-1)studied in detail, proved to be a doubled-haploid with one rye chromosome pair added (1R) and a homozygous 6R/6D substitution (2n= 44). The line was tested for expression of disease resistance and found to be highly resistant to powdery mildew and moderately resistant to yellow rust.

    Notes: Momentum profiles of the valence orbitals of methylpropane, also known as isobutane (CH3CH(CH3)CH3), have been studied by using a high resolution binary (e,2e) electron momentum spectrometer (EMS), at an impact energy of 1200 eV plus the binding energy, and using symmetric noncoplanar kinematics. The coincidence energy resolution of the EMS spectrometer is 0.95 eV full width at half-maximum. The experimental momentum profiles of the valence orbitals are compared with the theoretical momentum distributions calculated using Hartree–Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT) methods with the two basis sets of 6-31G and 6-311++G**. The B3LYP functionals are used for the DFT calculations. In general, the experimental momentum distributions are well described by the HF and DFT calculations. The pole strengths of the main ionization peaks from the orbitals in the inner valence are estimated. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen (CTLA-4) is an important downregulator of T-cell activation. In order to analyze the expression and regulation of CTLA-4 on human peripheral T cells, CTLA-4 mRNA and protein expression were determined using analysis by reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction (RT–PCR) and FACs, respectively. Intracellular CTLA-4 was constitutively expressed in unstimulated CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Interleukin (IL)-2 induced a dose-dependent increase of both intracellular and surface expression of CTLA-4 (CD152). Most of the CD4+ and CD8+ cells expressing CTLA-4 also expressed CD25. Interferon (IFN)-γ induced the upregulation of CTLA-4 expression via antigen-presenting cells (APC) activation. The CTLA-4delTM mRNA (550 bp) had a shorter half-life than the full length CTLA-4 mRNA and the expression was downregulated upon activation of the cells by treatment with IL-2. Given an inhibitory role of CTLA-4 and CD4+ CD25+ T cells in immune responses, the present findings suggest that IL-2-induced immunosuppression may result from its stimulatory effect of the CTLA-4 expression.
