Structural characterization of YBa(2)Cu(3)O(7)/Y(2)O(3) composite films
Using 4-circle x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy we have studied the microstructure and in-plane orientation of the phases present in thin film composite mixtures of YBa(2)Cu(3)O(7) and Y(2)O(3).

A Different Perspective on the Solid Lubrication Performance of Black Phosphorous: Friend or Foe?
Researchers investigate black phosphorous (BP) as a standalone solid lubricant coating through ball‐on‐disc linear‐reciprocating sliding experiments in dry conditions. Testing on different metals shows BP doesn't universally reduce friction and wear. However, it achieves 33% friction reduction on rougher iron surfaces and 23% wear reduction on aluminum.

Use of electron microscopy to study platelets and thrombi
Electron microscopy has been a valuable tool for the study of platelet biology and thrombosis for more than 70 years. Early studies using conventional transmission and scanning electron microscopy (EM) provided a foundation for our initial understanding ...

Forescattered electron imaging of nanoparticles in a scanning electron microscopy [PDF]
In this study, we have used a Zr-Nb alloy containing well-defined nano-precipitates as a model material in which to study imaging contrast inversions (atomic number or diffraction contrast) observed with the forescattered electron imaging system, ARGUSTM, in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) when imaging a thin foil in a transmission geometry.

Adjustable Plasmonic Core–Shell Nanoparticles for Personalized Color Vision Correction
This study introduces a personalized solution for correcting color vision deficiency (CVD) by embedding tunable core‐shell metal nanoparticles—a common nanotechnology—into contact lenses. By customizing the nanoparticles’ optical properties to filter specific wavelengths, these lenses address individual visual impairments, enhancing color ...

Gold particle quantification in immuno-gold labelled sections for transmission electron microscopy [PDF]
We briefly outline an algorithm for accurate quantification of specific binding of gold particles to fixed biological tissue samples prepared for immuno-transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The algorithm is based on existing protocols for rational accounting of colloidal gold particles used in secondary antibodies for immuno-gold labeling.

High‐Rate Deposition and Characterization Study of CoZrO Films for On‐Chip Power Applications
This study introduces a high‐rate reactive sputtering process for CoZrO films, aimed at large‐scale production of on‐chip magnetic components compatible with complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) fabrication. Characterization of the deposited films reveals that ideal magnetic properties require chemical compositions in a narrow Co:O range and ...
