    Notes: Atom probe field ion microscopy was employed to investigate the distribution of Al in a nanocrystalline Fe88Zr7B3Al2 soft magnet with optimal magnetic performance. The atom probe concentration depth profiles show that the Al atoms preferentially partition into the residual amorphous phase, and the partitioning factor of Al is approximately five times larger in the amorphous phase than in the bcc Fe phase. Based on the experimental results, the beneficial effect of the addition of Al on the soft magnetic properties is attributed to the change of the inherent magnetostriction constant of the residual amorphous phase induced by Al partitioning. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Atom probe field ion microscopy was employed to investigate the distribution of the alloying elements in a nanocrystalline Fe76.5Nd8Co8B6Nb1.5 (at. %) alloy consisting of soft magnetic α-Fe and hard magnetic Nd2Fe14B. It was found that Co atoms prefer to partition into Nd2Fe14B phase. The partitioning factor of Co in the hard magnetic phase is approximately 2 with respect to the soft magnetic phase, α-Fe. Atom probe concentration and integrated depth profiles showed that the Nb atoms segregate at the interfaces between the soft and the hard magnetic phases. Based on the atom probe results, the beneficial effects of Nb and Co on the microstructure and the hard magnetic properties of the nanocomposite are discussed. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Summary One of the critical challenges for cellular genetic studies in primary human skin cells is lack of a gene delivery system that provides efficient transduction and sustained expression of the transgenes. Due to the limited time of survival in culture, the processes of drug selection and clonal expansion for establishing gene stably expressing cell lines are not a realistic option for primary skin cells. We have examined various gene transduction techniques in primary dermal fibroblasts and epidermal keratinocytes of human skin. We report here that vectors based on the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV, lentivirus) offer more than 90% gene transduction efficiency and sustained expression of transgenes in both human skin cell types. In contrast, most of the commonly used techniques have at best 30% transduction efficiency in these cells. Using two previously reported migration control genes, protein kinase Cδ and p38α-MAPK, as examples, we provide evidence that the unprecedented efficiency of the lentiviral system enables a clear detection of the genes' dominant negative effects, which are otherwise greatly compromised by ordinary transfection techniques. We believe that a wide application of this gene transduction system will greatly benefit studies of gene function in human skin cells.

    Kinetic foundation of extended irreversible thermodynamics (2000)

    Notes: In this paper we investigate the kinetic foundation of extended irreversible thermodynamics via the moment method. First we consider the construct of the 1-particle distribution function f in terms of its moments by maximizing the entropy density function. We then project f from its L2 space onto the local thermodynamic variables z=(z1,...,zN) in the thermodynamic base space B(circumflex)N. Thus instead of the Boltzmann equation we consider a set of evolution equations of z in B(circumflex)N. Second, we formulate the laws of thermodynamics governing the variable z in B(circumflex)N. These laws exhibit an intrinsic geometric structure of thermodynamics in the setting of contact geometry. Finally, as an illustration, we discuss the evolution equations for the bulk pressure Pb, heat flux Q, and the symmetric traceless tensor π(two down arrows) corresponding to the viscous and heat conduction irreversible processes. These equations can be formulated as an abstract inhomogeneous hyperbolic evolution equation. By employing the C0 semigroup technique, we discuss the solution of the evolution equation and its asymptotic behavior. We show that thermodynamic stability condition of the system implies asymptotic dynamical stability of the solution and vice versa. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Kinetic evidence for the structural similarity between a supercooled liquid and an icosahedral phase in Zr65Al7.5Ni10Cu12.5Ag5 bulk metallic glass (2001)

    Notes: By differential scanning calorimetric measurement, the kinetics of the phase transformation present in Zr65Al7.5Ni10Cu12.5Ag5 bulk metallic glass during continuous heating was investigated. It was found that the effective activation energy from a supercooled liquid to an icosahedral quasicrystalline phase is much lower than that from the supercooled liquid to eutectic crystalline phases. In addition, the activation energy from the icosahedral phase to the crystalline phases is almost the same as that from the supercooled liquid to the crystalline phases. Both of them support that the local atomic structure is similar for the supercooled liquid and the icosahedral phase in the bulk metallic glass. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Atomic force microscopy study of plastic deformation and interfacial sliding in Al thin film: Si substrate systems due to thermal cycling (2000)

    Notes: A method is proposed to measure the plastic deformation of thin metallic films on Si substrates induced by thermal cycling. The cross-sectional profiles of pattern-grown square Al films with a thickness of ∼250 nm and a size of ∼6 μm×6 μm were measured before and after thermal cycling by employing an atomic force microscope. With the assistance of statistical analysis, the change in the size and shape of the thin films were determined. Based on theoretical considerations, the thermal cycling deformation of thin films is attributed to creep and plasticity effects, accommodated by diffusion-controlled interfacial sliding. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We report the development of an imaging layer technology for 50 kV electron-beam lithography based upon the displacement of noncovalently bound amine ligands from a siloxane host film. The patterned films were used as templates for the selective deposition of an electroless nickel film resulting in a positive tone imaging mechanism. The deposited nickel was sufficiently robust to function as an etch mask for pattern transfer by reactive ion etching. Metallized and etched patterns with linewidths to approximately 40 nm are demonstrated using an exposure dose of 500 μC/cm2. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Ductile quasicrystalline alloys (2000)

    Notes: An icosahedral (I) quasicrystalline phase with a grain size below 40 nm was formed as a metastable phase in crystallization of the bulk glassy Zr65Al7.5Cu17.5−xNi10Mx (M=Ag, Pd, Au, or Pt; x=5 and 10 at %) alloys. The volume fraction (Vf) of the I phase is about 85% for the 5% M alloy and nearly 100% for the 10% M alloy. The I phase changes to Zr2Cu+Zr2Ni+Zr2Al3 in a fully annealed state. Compressive fracture strength (σc,f) and fracture elongation (εc,f) of the 10% Pd cylinder with a diameter of 2 mm are respectively 1640 MPa and 2.2% for the glassy phase and increase to 1830 MPa and 3.1% for the I phase. The increase in σc,f is due to the suppression effect of the I particles against the shear deformation of the intergranular glassy phase, and the increase in εc,f results from the localization effect of deformation into the glassy layer. The precipitation of the I phase implies that the glassy alloys include randomly oriented I configurations. The present work shows promise for the new class of high-strength nanoquasicrystalline materials. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: : The purpose of this research was to evaluate the effects of various concentrations of glucono-δ-lactone (GDL) and skim milk powder, as well as the addition of prebiotics, on the rheology and probiotic viabilities of dairy tofu. Additionally, modern optimization techniques were applied to attempt to determine the optimal processing conditions and growth rate for the selected probiotics (Lactobacillus. acidophilus, L. casei, Bifidobacteria bifidum, and B. longum). There were 2 stages in this research to accomplish the goal. The 1st stage was to derive surface models using response surface methodology (RSM); the 2nd stage performed optimization on the models using sequential quadratic programming (SQP) techniques. The results were demonstrated to be effective. The most favorable production conditions of dairy tofu were 1% GDL, 0% peptides, 3% isomaltooligosaccharides (IMO), and 18% milk, as confirmed by subsequent verification experiments. Analysis of the sensory evaluation results revealed no significant difference between the probiotic dairy tofu and the GDL analog in terms of texture and appearance (P 〈 0.05). The viable numbers of probiotics were well above the recommended limit of 106 CFU/g for the probiotic dairy tofu throughout the tested storage period.
