    Notes: The AgInS2 epilayers with a chalcopyrite structure grown using a hot-wall epitaxy method have been confirmed to be a high quality crystal. From the optical absorption measurement, the temperature dependence of the energy band gap on AgInS2/GaAs was found to be Eg(T)=2.1365 eV−(9.89×10−3 eV)T2/(2930+T). After the as-grown AgInS2/GaAs was annealed in AgInS2/GaAs has been investigated by using the photoluminescence (PL) at 10 K. The native defects of VAg, VS, Agint, and Sint obtained from PL measurements were classified as a donors or acceptors type AgInS2/GaAs to an optical p type. Also, we confirmed that In in AgInS2/GaAs did not form the native defects because In in AgInS2 did exist in the form of stable bonds. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract Scanning tunneling and atomic force microscopes (STM and AFM) are used to study biological materials. These methods, often capable of achieving atomic resolutions, reveal fascinating information regarding the inner workings of these materials. However, both STM and AFM require physical contact to the specimen. In the case of STM, the specimen needs to be conducting as well. Here we introduce a new method for imaging biological materials through air or a suitable liquid using decaying or evanescent fields at the tip of a properly designed microwave resonator. This novel method involves the use of an evanescent microwave probe (EMP) and is capable of imaging a variety of non-uniformities in biological materials including conductivity, permittivity, and density variations. EMP is a non-contact and non-destructive sensor and it does not require conducting specimens. Its spatial resolution is currently around 0.4 μm at 1 GHz. We have used this probe to map non-uniformities in a variety of materials including metals, semiconductors, insulators, and biological and botanical samples. Here we discuss applications of EMP imaging in bone, teeth, botanical, and agricultural specimens.

    Notes: Abstract A cDNA, mSOD1, encoding cytosolic copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD) was cloned and characterized from cell cultures of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) which produce a high yield of SOD. mSOD1 encodes a 152-amino acid polypeptide with a pI value of 5.84. Southern analysis using an mSOD1-specific probe indicated that a single copy of the mSOD1 gene is present in the cassava genome. The mSOD1 gene is highly expressed in cultured cells, as well as in intact stems and tuberous roots. It is expressed at a low level in leaves and petioles. Transcripts of mSOD1 were not detected in nontuberous roots. Transcriptional level of mSOD1 reaches a high level at stationary phase, and then sharply decreases during further culture. In excised cassava leaves, the mSOD1 gene responded to various stresses in different ways. The stresses tested included changes in temperature and exposure to stress-inducing chemicals. Levels of mSOD1 transcript increased dramatically a few hours after heat stress at 37° C and showed a synergistic effect with wounding stress. Levels decreased in response to chilling stress at 4° C and showed an antagonistic effect with wounding stress. The gene was induced by abscisic acid, ethephon, NaCl, sucrose, and methyl viologen. These results indicate that the mSOD1 gene is involved in the response to oxidative stress induced by environmental change.
