We
argue that this selective strengthening forms the basis of cognitive abstraction, and explain how it facilitates insight and false memory formation.”
“We report a detailed structure Linsitinib inhibitor and defect characterization study on gallium phosphide (GaP) layers integrated on silicon (Si) (001) via silicon-germanium (SiGe) buffer layers. The presented approach uses an almost fully relaxed SiGe buffer heterostructure of only 400 nm thickness whose in-plane lattice constant is matched to GaP-not at room but at GaP deposition temperature. Single crystalline, pseudomorphic 270 nm thick GaP is successfully grown by metalorganic chemical vapour deposition on a 400 nm Si0.85Ge0.15/Si(001) heterosystem, but carries a 0.08% tensile strain after cooling down to room temperature due to the bigger thermal expansion coefficient of GaP with respect to Si. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies confirm the absence of misfit dislocations in the pseudomorphic GaP film but growth defects (e.g., stacking faults, microtwins, etc.) especially at the GaP/SiGe interface region are detected. We interpret these growth defects as a residue of the initial 3D island coalescence phase of the GaP film on the SiGe buffer. TEM-energy-dispersive Autophagy pathway inhibitors x-ray spectroscopy studies reveal that these defects are often correlated with stoichiometric inhomogeneities in the GaP film. Time-of-flight Secondary
ion mass spectrometry detects sharp heterointerfaces between GaP and SiGe films with a minor level of Ga diffusion into the SiGe buffer. (C) 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.”
“Bone and joint infection complicating tuberculosis is most likely to involve vertebrae. Pott disease, or tuberculous spondylitis, represents a small proportion of tuberculosis cases, but it can be associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Our case report details Pott disease in a teenage girl, which presented with a sternal mass. We also present a review of the subject.”
“We have been developing a novel nuclear laser spectroscopy method “OROCHI” for determining spins and moments of exotic radioisotopes. In this method, we use superfluid helium as
a stopping material of energetic radioisotope beams and then stopped radioisotope atoms are Compound C research buy subjected to in situ laser spectroscopy in superfluid helium. To confirm the feasibility of this method for rare radioisotopes, we carried out a test experiment using a Rb-85 beam. In this experiment, we have successfully measured the Zeeman resonance signals from the Rb-85 atoms stopped in superfluid helium by laser-RF double resonance spectroscopy. This method is efficient for the measurement of spins and moments of more exotic nuclei. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.”
“In this paper, we formulate the face hallucination as an image decomposition problem, and propose a Morphological Component Analysis (MCA) based method for hallucinating a single face image. A novel three-step framework is presented for the proposed method.
