copper sulphide (cu 2 s) thin films at different thicknesses and annealing temperatures were deposited onto glass substrate by vacuum evaporation method. xrd study reveals the phase transformation of cu     2 s film at higher thickness. optical and resistivity study show the phase transformation of the film from cu     2 s to cus when they are annealed at higher temperature. sem st...

Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep has been postulated to facilitate emotional processing of negative stimuli. However, empirical evidence is mixed and primarily based on self-report data and picture-viewing studies. This study used a full-length aversive film to elicit intense emotion on one evening, and an emotionally neutral control film on another evening while psychophysiological and experient...

This review article summarizes recent progress in investigation of nano-rheology and thin film lubrication, as well as their contributions to conventional tribology. As the thickness of a lubricating film becomes comparable to molecular dimensions, a lubricant confined between solid walls undergoes a dramatic transition in its rheological properties and physical state, including the formation o...

Experimental and numerical studies of the fluid dynamics of thin liquid film wall protection systems have been conducted in support of the ARIES-IFE study. Both the porous “wetted wall” concept, involving low-speed injection through a porous wall normal to the surface, and the “forced film” concept, involving high-speed injection through slots tangential to the surface, have been examined. Thes...

Introduction: Radiation therapy is one of the methods of cancer treatment. In this method, it is necessary to avoid harming the healthy tissues of the patient which is in the vicinity of the target, as much as possible. Treatment verification is one of the most important steps of radiation therapy which has two usual methods, using Port film and EPID. The accuracy and precision of treatment in ...

The current methods for treatment of cancers are inadequate and more specific methods such as gene therapy are in progress. Among different vehicles, cationic liposomes are frequently used for delivery of genetic material. This investigation aims to prepare and optimize DOTAP cationic liposomes containing an antisense oligonuclotide (AsODN) against protein kinase C alpha in non-small cells lung...

a simple method for fabrication of highly ordered gold nanorod film is introduced in this article. the procedure is based on thermal evaporation of gold into a porous anodic alumina film (paa). the ppa film was fabricated by combining the hard and mild anodization. this combination effectively decreases the processing time of fabrication of highly ordered porous anodic alumina film with control...

introduction: bite wing radiographs are indicated in children with closed posterior contacts. given the fact that nowadays bitewing radiographs are taken using both paper loop and film holder, the aim of this study is the evaluation of acceptance and diagnostic quality of two methods. materials and methods: this study is a sort of diagnostic accuracy test that was performed on 20 6-8 year old c...

INTRODUCTION In recent years there has been a steep increase in the number of orthopedic patients for many reasons. One major reason is osteomyelitis, caused by pyrogenic bacteria, with progressive infection of the bone or bone marrow and surrounding tissues. So antibiotics must be introduced during bone implantation to avoid prolonged infection. AIM The objective of the study reported here w...
