Sympathetic innervation of intraparenchymal blood vessels in the basal ganglia was demonstrated by transmission electron microscopy in arteries, arterioles, and capillaries of the subhuman primate brain. Small arteries (40-120 micron) and some arterioles (12-40 micron) are innervated only at branching sites. However, arterioles occasionally may be innervated at points distal to their origin. Ca...

We have demonstrated the feasibility of depth and surface temperature measurements in active areas of semiconductor devices using confocal Raman spectroscopy. Using micro heaters, we created a 3D temperature profile across micron size volume. We determined the temperature profile with sub-micron resolution and obtained good agreement with calculations. Theoretical uncertainty in temperature det...

Urchin-like NiCo2S4 sub-micron spheres integrated with nano-sized and micro-sized structures, which were synthesized via a facile one-pot method, deliver efficient electrocatalytic activities for oxygen reduction and evolution reactions. The excellent electrocatalytic property of NiCo2S4 sub-micron spheres is originated from their unique urchin-like microstructure, composition and d-electronic ...

Among the energetic mixtures, one category are thermites. Thermites highly reactive composites described as consisting of a fuel (metal) and an oxidizer (metal oxide) at micron scale. The use nano-sized reactants, with higher surface area to volume ratio than micron-sized counterparts, considerably increases properties consequently raises their interest. present work expands on this aspect by i...
