X - Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy of Silicate Glasses
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is a powerful technique capable of providing unique information about the structural chemistry of glasses. However, inappropriate procedures for the preparation of sample surfaces or the lack of reliable methods to overcome electrostatic charging effects during analysis of dielectric materials can cause spurious features to be introduced or intrinsic featu...
متن کاملMagnetic Tunnel Junctions
Application of Bardeen’s tunneling theory to magnetic tunnel junctions having a general degree of atomic disorder reveals the close relationship between magneto-conduction and voltage-driven pseudo-torque, as well as the thickness dependence of tunnel-polarization factors. Among the results: 1) The torque generally varies as sin θ at constant applied voltage. 2) Whenever polarization factors ar...
متن کاملX-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy study of maleimide-activated supports for immobilization of oligodeoxyribonucleotides.
Surface-tethered nucleic acids are widely applied in solid-phase assays in which complementary strands must be detected against a complex mixture of other sequences. In response to such needs, numerous methods have been developed for immobilizing nucleic acids on solid supports. Often, detailed analysis of associated chemical transformations and of potential side reactions is difficult to obtai...

Figure 1 Schematic illustration showing the mechanism of TMR. Top: for parallel aligned magnetization as sketched at left, electrons around the Fermi level with spin up (m) and spin down (k) are allowed to tunnel from majority to majority bands, and from minority to minority bands. Bottom: when the magnetization is antiparallel, tunneling takes place from majority to minority and minority to ma...
متن کاملQuantitative characterization of DNA films by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
We describe the use of self-assembled films of thiolated (dT)25 single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) on gold as a model system for quantitative characterization of DNA films by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). We evaluate the applicability of a uniform and homogeneous overlayer-substrate model for data analysis, examine model parameters used to describe DNA films (e.g., density and electron atten...
