A total of 73 peridotitic mantle xenoliths and a set of garnet and clinopyroxene xenocrysts from the recently discovered Jurassic Monk Hill kimberlite (UCO-H77A) in South Australia were used to constrain the thermal and compositional structure of the lithospheric mantle beneath the Adelaide Fold Belt, which is located at the southeastern margin of the Australian craton. The xenoliths contain mo...

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with a Ba-doped tris(8-quinolinolato)aluminum(III) (Alq3) layer were fabricated to reduce the barrier height for electron injection and to improve the electron conductivity. In the OLED consisting of glass/ITO/4,4',4"-tris[2-naphthylphenyl-1-phenylamino]triphenylamine (2-TNATA, 30 nm)/4,4'-bis[N-(1-napthyl)-N-phenyl-amino]-biphenyl (NPB, 18 nm)/Alq3 (42 nm)...

introduction: ablative and nonablative lasers have been used to treat melasma. we aimed to assess and compare the combining q-switched nd:yag laser (qsnyl) and fractional erbium:yag laser (feyl) with qsnyl alone in treatment of melasma. methods: this randomized controlled clinical trial was performed in our research center during 2013-2014. women with melasma and without a history of keloid for...

Rocks from the Valhalla metamorphic core complex, British Columbia, Canada, have experienced granulite Jades metamorphism at conditions of 820±30°C, 8±1 kbar. Peak metamorphism was accompanied by dehydration melting of muscovite, but not biotite, followed by minor back reaction of garnet + K-feldspar + H20sillimanite + biotite+plagio close.' At conditions very near those of the peak, extensive ...

We explore Fe/Mn and Nb/Ta ratios of basalts as potential tracers for differentiating melts of recycled mafic crustal lithologies from peridotitic melts. Trace elements and Fe/Mn ratios of the Mesozoic and Cenozoic basalts from East China were analyzed by ICP-MS. Low Nb/Ta ratios (15.4 ± 0.3 (2r, n = 45)), high Nb and Ta contents (60.1 and 4.01 ppm) and high Fe/ Mn ratios (64.7 ± 1.5 (2r, n = 4...
