The fabrication of many devices in modern technology requires techniques for growing thin films. As devices miniaturize, manufacturers will need to control thin film growth at the atomic level. Because many devices have challenging morphologies, thin films must be able to coat conformally on structures with high aspect ratios. Techniques based on atomic layer deposition (ALD), a special type of...

The effect of heterogeneous aqueous reactions on the secondary formation of inorganic aerosols during haze events was investigated by analysis of comprehensive measurements of aerosol composition and concentrations [e.g., particular matters (PM2.5), nitrate (NO3), sulfate (SO4), ammonium (NH4)], gas-phase precursors [e.g., nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and ozone (O3)], and releva...

This study describes preparation and characterization of fluorine-containing organicinorganic hybrid coatings. The organic part consists of bisphenol-A glycerolate (1 glycerol/phenol) diacrylate resin and 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate reactive diluent. The inorganically rich part comprises trimethoxysilane-terminated urethane, 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane, 3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl me...

The UV-induced polymerization of multifunctional monomers has found a large number of applications in various industrial fields, mainly in the production of films, inks and coatings on a variety of substrate, including paper, metal and wood. This polymerization process has been used for fabrication of nanostructured epoxy coatings characterized by outstanding properties, pursuing two different ...

Cohen (1948a) has reported that during the multiplication of the bacteriophages T2r+ and T4r+ in Escherichia coli, strain B, the ribonucleic acid content of the host remains constant. Similar observations were made by Kozloff et al. (1951) who investigated the origin of the nitrogen of T6r+ multiplying in the same host. Cohen (1948b) also examined the possibility that the ribonucleic acid was u...

conclusions scc, lgdn, and hgdn are common associated findings and precursors of hcc in livers infected with hepatitis b. a strict follow-up and a precise and thorough sampling of livers with scc and any abnormal dysplastic nodules (dns), especially those larger than 1 cm, are highly recommended because these dns are highly associated with malignancy. results among all explanted cirrhotic liver...

Background & Aims of the Study: In some situation like rainfall seasons raw water become very turbid so it affected the water treatment plant processes and quality of produced water. Treatment of very high turbid water has some concerns like precursors for disinfection by-products and very loading rate of particle on filter's media and consequently increases in water consumptio...

Hybrid organic-inorganic materials offer a wide range of interesting applications especially in optics. Chemistry plays a major role in the elaboration and comprehension of such materials. Sol-gel process provide a method to blend, down to the molecular scale, organic and inorganic components. Examples of hybrid organic-inorganic materials for optics and optical characterizations of hybrid mate...
