An alternative to the conventional dry cast and spin cast methods of forming films of nanocrystals is electrophoretic deposition. A pair of Au-on-Si electrodes was submerged in a nanocrystal solution (∼3 nm diameter CdSe/TOPO nanocrystals in hexane) and high dc voltage was appli…
The use of antisenescence compounds to precondition seedlings was studied in white pine (Pinus strobus L.). In a preliminary study, the effectiveness of eight compounds were tested by their ability to prevent desiccation-induced membrane leakage in Phaseolus vulgaris . When fed …
Magnetic Circular Dichroism (MCD) and Faraday Rotation (FR) of excimer absorption bands in gases are measured to obtain the first direct information about the angular momentum quantum numbers and the angular momentum coupling schemes of excimer molecules. So far, there has been …
The study consists of two parts: The first is a short study on heterogeneous catalytic ozonation. In this study various species that may be involved in surface catalyzed ozonation are examined. It is suggested that a surface ozonide is formed in the heterogeneous process which d…
