The manufacture of smaller, faster, more efficient microelectronic components is a major scientific and technological challenge, driven in part by a constant need for smaller lithographically defined features and patterns. Traditional self-assembling approaches based on block copolymer lithography spontaneously yield nanometer-sized hexagonal structures, but these features are not consistent wi...

Micron-sized hexagonal single-crystalline Sc(3)N@C(80) rods have been successfully prepared for the first time by a liquid-liquid interfacial precipitation (LLIP) method with the first utilization of p-xylene as the solvent dissolving Sc(3)N@C(80). The effect of the concentration of the Sc(3)N@C(80) solution on the size and length of the Sc(3)N@C(80) rods has been studied, indicating that the l...

Vertical misfit of implant-abutment interface can affect the success of implant treatment; however, currently available modalities have limitations to detect these gaps. This study aimed to evaluate implant-abutment gaps in vitro using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Vertical misfit gaps sized 50, 100, 150, or 200 μm were created between external hexagonal implants and titanium abutments (N...

In this work, the photocatalytic activity and sorption capacity of heterogeneous structures AgCl/h-BN obtained by polyol method were studied in comparison with initial micron-sized h-BN powder. The chemical phase composition, as well surface microstructure, analyzed scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray analysis, photoelectron spectroscopy. High ability AgCl/BN rea...

conclusions hexagonal water has no significant effect(s) on total cholesterol, hdl, and ldl; however, more experiments are needed to clarify all aspects of hexagonal water consumption on diabetes. background diabetes is one of the most prevalent abnormalities in all over the world. nowadays, there are lots of attempts to reduce its disturbances and defects by changing life style to access some ...

Effects of surface roughness on the optical scattering properties of ice crystals are investigated using a randomwave superposition model of roughness that is a simplification of models used in studies of scattering by surface water waves. Unlike previous work with models of rough surfaces applicable only in limited size ranges, such as surface perturbation methods in the small particle regime ...
