The temperature dependence of the Raman-active mode frequencies in indium sulfide was measured in the range from 10 to 300 K. The analysis of the temperature dependence of the Ag intralayer optical modes show that Raman frequency shift results from the change of harmonic frequency with volume expansion and anharmonic coupling to phonons of other branches. The pure-temperature contribution (phon...

Layers of palladium (Pd) nanoparticles on indium phosphide (InP) were prepared by electrophoretic deposition from the colloid solution of Pd nanoparticles. Layers prepared by an opposite polarity of deposition showed different physical and morphological properties. Particles in solution are separated and, after deposition onto the InP surface, they form small aggregates. The size of the aggrega...

Askin tumor is a rare disease which had previously been reported as being thallium-201 and gallium-67 avid. Varying data regarding 18F- fluorodeoxyglucose metabolism has been described with Ewing family of soft tissue tumors. In this case, we present a patient found to have an Askin tumor of the left chest wall which demonstrated indium-111 pentetreotide and technetium-99m MIBI avidity. The les...

BACKGROUND Patients with chronic aortic dissection require monitoring for indications of disease progression. In present study, inflammation adjacent to associated aortic wall was evaluated by indium-111-oxine-labeled leukocyte scintigraphy, scince inflammation of the blood vessel wall often associates with progression of chronic aortic dissection. METHODS AND RESULTS Fifteen patients with ao...

Carcinoid is a neuroendocrine neoplasm derived from primitive stem cells, occurring most frequently in the alimentary tract. Somatostatin-receptor scintigraphy with indium-111 pentetreotide is a sensitive and noninvasive technique for imaging carcinoid and its metastatic spread. However, nontumoral lesions such as sarcoidosis may also express somatostatin receptors, which may present a diagnost...

Indium nitride (InN) nanowire synthesis using indium (In) vapor transport in a dissociated ammonia environment (reactive vapor transport) is studied in detail to understand the nucleation and growth mechanisms involved with the so-called "self-catalysis" schemes. The results show that the nucleation of InN crystal occurs first on the substrate. Later, In droplets are formed on top of the InN cr...

Low cost, high efficiency photovoltaic can help accelerate the adoption of solar energy. Using tapered indium phosphide nanopillars grown on a silicon substrate, we demonstrate a single nanopillar photovoltaic exhibiting illumination angle insensitive response. The photovoltaic employs a novel regrown core-shell p-i-n junction to improve device performance by eliminating shunt current paths, re...

We report an indium triflate-catalyzed stereoselective intramolecular tandem conjugate addition of secondary amines to α,β-bisenones to afford a 1,2,3-trisubstituted six-membered ring bearing diketone substituents in good to excellent yields at room temperature. Various kinds of α,β-bisenones and amines were employed to expand the scope of this chemistry. Intramolecular trapping of indium-enola...
