    Notes: Abstract Endothelin (ET)-1 is a 21-amino acid peptide with potent vasopressor and vasocontrictive properties. Biochemical studies suggest that this peptide occurs in adrenal glands, where it influences steroid hormone production. However, we have found no report of the topographical distribution of this peptide. The localization of ET-1 immunoreactivity in non-neoplastic (37 cases) and neoplastic adrenal glands (48 cases) was investigated with a sensitive immunohistochemical technique applied to routinely processed tissue specimens. ET-1 immunoreactivity was regularly seen in the cortex, especially in the zona fasciculata and to a varying extent also in the other two zones, but not in the medulla. The immunoreactive material appeared in the cytoplasm mostly in the form of vacuolar structures but also as grains. Focally, the cell membrane also showed immunoreactive staining. In the zona reticularis the immunoreactivity appeared mainly as cytoplasmic grains. Most cortical adenomas displayed numerous immunoreactive cells. The immunoreactivity in the tumour tissue appeared in the same forms as in normal cortex, but the reactive products were generally fewer in number. No obvious differences in immunostaining were seen between the aldosterone- and cortisol-producing adenomas or the non-functioning ones. Three of the ten carcinomas contained immunoreactive cells, but they were few, appearing focally and the ET-1 immunoreactive structures were seen as ‘dust-like’ material. The difference in immunoreactivity between the benign and the malignant cortical neoplasms may be of diagnostic value. Functionally our results support a relationship between ET-1 and steroid regulation in non-neoplastic cortical tissue.

    Notes: The magnetic properties of Dy2Fe17 and Dy2Fe17C have been reported. The expansion of the lattice and increase of Curie temperature Tc and magnetization M have been found for Dy2Fe17C, and compared with Dy2Fe17. From the study of 57Fe Mossbauer spectra, we found that the average hyperfine field of Dy2Fe17C is about 5 T larger than that of Dy2Fe17. The isomer shift of the 4f site is smaller for Dy2Fe17C compared with Dy2Fe17.

    Corrosion of NdFeB permanent magnet materials : The 5th Joint MMM−Intermag Conference (1991)

    Notes: NdFeB is an important class of new magnetic materials, however corrosion resistance is a serious concern and literature on the electrochemical behavior of NdFeB is scarce. This paper reports the results of an electrochemical investigation of the corrosion behavior of sintered NdFeB magnets obtained from three manufacturers. Linear polarization (cyclic voltammetry) experiments were conducted in aqueous solutions ranging in pH from 0.7 to 13.5. A limited degree of passivation was observed in all solutions which is believed to be due to the formation of a complex Fe-Nd oxide and/or hydroxide film. The presence of a small amount of chloride ion, 10 to 100 ppm, shows only a slight effect, but higher concentrations (1000 ppm) cause a total breakdown in passivity and a dramatic increase in anodic current. The cathodic potential sweep shows an abrupt and unusual oxidation process, giving rise to an oxidation peak not commonly seen. This peak may result from dissolution of the film or preferential attack of intergranular phases.

    Interlayer segregation of Cu atoms in Ta/NiFe/Cu/NiFe/FeMn/Ta spin-valve multilayers and its influence on magnetic properties (2002)

    Notes: Experimental results show that the exchange coupling field (Hex) of NiFe/FeMn for Ta/NiFe/FeMn/Ta multilayers is higher than that for spin-valve multilayers Ta/NiFe/Cu/NiFe/FeMn/Ta. In order to find out the reason, the composition and chemical states at the surface of Ta(12 nm)/NiFe(7 nm), Ta(12 nm)/NiFe(7 nm)/Cu(4 nm), and Ta(12 nm)/NiFe(7 nm)/Cu(3 nm)/NiFe(5 nm) were studied using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results show that no elements from lower layers float out or segregate to the surface in the first and second samples. However, Cu atoms segregate to the surface of Ta(12 nm)/NiFe(7 nm)/Cu(3 nm)/NiFe(5 nm) multilayers, i.e., Cu atoms segregate to the NiFe/FeMn interface for Ta/NiFe/Cu/NiFe/FeMn/Ta multilayers. We believe that the presence of Cu atoms at the interface of NiFe/FeMn is one of the important factors which causes the exchange coupling field (Hex) of Ta/NiFe/Cu/NiFe/FeMn/Ta to be weaker than that of Ta/NiFe/FeMn/Ta. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Several versions of Mevva ion sources have been developed in our institute since 1988. It operates in a pulsed mode with a pulse length of 1.2 ms and a repetition rate of up to 50 pps. A time-averaged beam current of 10 or 50 mA has been extracted at 30–80 kV from Mevva IIA-H and Mevva IIB, respectively. In order to develop surface modification of materials by ion implantation we have constructed three kinds of Mevva ion source implantation systems. High dose (3–5×1017 cm−2) implantation with Ti, Ce, Y, and Ti+C, etc. has been carried out for improving the lifetime of metal cutting tools, relay contacts, dies, and some sophisticated components.

    Notes: Summary Psoriasis is a disease characterized by inflammation and increased population of hyperproliferative keratinocytes. It is well known that chemokines and chemokine receptors, such as interleukin-8 and its receptors (CXCR1 and CXCR2), play important roles in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. So far, examination of CXCR2 expression in psoriatic lesional keratinocytes by FACS calibur has not been reported and whether VitD3 inhibits psoriatic lesional keratinocyte proliferation through down-regulation of CXCR2 expression has not been elucidated. In the present study, CXCR2 expression in psoriatic lesional keratinocytes and HACAT treated with VitD3 was detected by flow cytometry. The proliferative capacity of HACAT treated with VitD3 was assayed by MTT assay. The results showed that CXCR2 expression in psoriatic lesional keratinocytes was higher than that in normal human keratinocytes. At the correct concentration VitD3 could inhibit human keratinocyte proliferation and down-regulate CXCR2 expression in HACAT. The data demonstrate that the inhibitory effect of VitD3 on keratinocyte proliferation might be mediated by down-regulation of CXCR2 expression.

    Giant magnetoresistive memory effect in Nd0.7Sr0.3MnOz (abstract) : The 40th annual conference on magnetism and magnetic materials (1996)

    Notes: A novel giant magnetoresistance memory effect has been observed in epitaxial Nd0.7Sr0.3MnOz thin films which have previously been found to exhibit a linear increase in conductivity on first application of a magnetic field (B). Here we reported that the conductivity of the films depends not only on the applied field but also on the magnetic history. At T well below the temperature Tp where the zero-field resistivity has a peak, the film enters a high conductivity state [(ΔR/RB)(approximately-greater-than)103] upon application of a magnetic field which persists even when B is reduced to zero. The original "zero'' field state is not recovered until the sample is warmed to T∼Tp. Surprisingly, the dc magnetization exhibits only a weak irreversibility while the magnetoconductivity is markedly hysteretic. That is, while the remanent magnetization is small the remanent magnetic resistivity is 10−3 times the initial zero-field-cooled resistivity. A possible explanation based on a two-component model of semiconducting matrix with embedded shunting paths of ferromagnetic material will be presented. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Critical current densities (Jc) in YBa2Cu3O7−x films made at deposition rates from 0.1 to 14.5 nm/s (∼50 μm/h) were measured using a direct transport method. As the deposition rate was increased by two orders of magnitude, the films exhibited no marked degradation in current carrying capability with Jc of ∼4×106 A/cm2 at 77 K and zero field. Jc for all the films showed similar behavior under a magnetic field up to 8 T, although extra structural defects were found in the films deposited at the higher rates. The results from this experiment indicate the feasibility for coating wires, tapes, and other macroscopic shapes with high Tc superconductors using proper vapor deposition techniques.

    Strain tolerant microfilamentary conductors of Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2O8−δ (1991)
    Woodbury, NY : American Institute of Physics (AIP)
    Applied Physics Letters 58 (1991), S. 2159-2161

    ISSN: 1077-3118

    Topics: Physics
    Notes: A highly strain tolerant family of conductors has been developed for the high-temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2O8−δ by fabricating a microfilamentary composite in which discontinuous filaments of the superconductors are separated from one another by very thin layers of Ag. The Ag provides a region of plastic flow and the strain tolerance. The Ag also provides barriers to supercurrent flow and to overcome these barriers, long slender filaments of Bi(2212) are arranged to have enormous overlap areas perpendicular to the direction of average current flow. This requires filament length to diameter ratios of about 10 000 to 1 and Ag barrier thicknesses on the order of 20 nm. This permits high Jc values even though the sample has a dense array of barriers. At 4.2 K and 0.3 T, critical current densities typically fall smoothly from 1000 to 800 A/cm2 as the strain increases from 0 to 1.6%.

    Recovery of original superconducting properties in ion-irradiated Y1Ba2Cu3O7−x thin films (1990)

    Topics: Physics
    Notes: The changes in the superconducting properties of in situ pulsed laser deposited Y1Ba2Cu3O7−x thin films caused by irradiation with 200 keV He+ ions are due to both oxygen loss as well as oxygen and cationic displacements induced by the irradiation. This is demonstrated by a study of the recovery of these defects by plasma oxidation and relatively low temperature (∼600 °C) annealing in oxygen. Plasma oxidation of films irradiated to low fluences enables the replacement of oxygen atoms in the lattice, leading to a substantial recovery of Tc0, Jc, and normal state resistivity. Irradiation-induced oxygen and cationic displacements and other microscopic defects can be further annealed out at relatively low temperatures leading to an almost full recovery of Tc0, Jc, and normal state resistivity. A transmission electron microscope study of irradiated films shows evidence that they are structurally disordered.
