Growth and morphology of 6H-SiC epitaxial layers by CVD

Single crystals of 6H-SiC were epitaxially grown on 6H-SiC substrates in the temperature range of 1500 to 1750°C with gas composition: H₂ ≈ 1 l/min, SiCl₄ ≈ 1 ml/min, C₃H₈ ≈ 0.05 ml/min. The grown layers were transparent and mirror-like. The morphology of the grown layer was strongly influenced by the polarity of the substrate surface. Aggregates of trapezoidal crystals were observed on the (000$\text{1}$)C surface and a mosaic pattern was observed on the (0001)Si surface. By observing the initial stage of the crystal growth, the growth mechanism of 6H-SiC is discussed. On (000$\text{1}$)C surfaces the vertical growth dominates, while on (0001)Si surfaces the lateral growth dominates.     

Single-molecule fluorescence imaging of the remote TiO2 photocatalytic oxidation

The remote TiO2 photocatalytic oxidation reaction of single dyes has been investigated by the single-molecule fluorescent imaging technique. The present results suggest that the active oxygen species (Ox) is most probably the .OH radical, which is generated from the photodecomposition of H2O2 by UV light. The analyses of the number, intensity, and spectrum of individual fluorescence spots at the single-molecule level also indicate that unoxidized and oxidized dyes exist during the bleaching processes of single dyes.     

Fluorescence properties of 2-aminopurine-cytidine-7-deazaguanine (5'-ApCdzG-3') trimer in B- and Z-DNA

The electron transfer quenching of 2-aminopurine by guanine and 7-deazaguanine was investigated in B- and Z-DNA, and an increase in the fluorescence intensity of 2-aminopurine upon B- to Z-DNA transition was demonstrated.     

Photochemical regulation of the activity of an endonuclease BamHI using an azobenzene moiety incorporated site-selectively into the dimer interface

Endonuclease BamHI mutants having an azophenylalanine residue in the dimer interface (azoAla-BamHI) were synthesized; while the activity was almost suppressed using trans-azoAla-BamHI, the cis-isomer generated with photoirradiation recovered its intrinsic activity.     

Beam-polarization asymmetries for the p(gamma-->, K+)Lambda and p(gamma-->, K+)Sigma(0) reactions for E(gamma)=1.5-2.4 GeV

Beam polarization asymmetries for the p(gamma-->,K+)Lambda and p(gamma-->,K+)Sigma(0) reactions are measured for the first time for E(gamma)=1.5-2.4 GeV and 0.6相似文献   

Selective ligation to sterically isolated metallophthalocyanines

A new class of sterically hindered phthalocyanine has been synthesized and characterized. Pentaphenylbenzene units were introduced at the periphery of each phthalocyanine to yield a sterically protected metal center. The attachment of the bulky oligophenylbenzene units resulted in the complete isolation of individual MPc molecules. The pockets around a cobalt center affect selectivity in the ligation of pyridines that have different sizes and shapes.     

Long-lived charge-separated state leading to DNA damage through hole transfer

The hole transfer causes the long-lived charge-separated state in DNA during the photosensitized one-electron oxidation of DNA. The combination of the transient absorption measurement and DNA damage quantification by HPLC clearly demonstrated that the yield of the DNA damage correlates well with the lifetime of the charge-separated state.     

On <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">1</Emphasis></Superscript>-summability and asymptotic profiles for smooth solutions to Navier–Stokes equations in a 3D exterior domain

The exterior nonstationary problem is studied for the 3D Navier-Stokes equations. The L ¹ -summability is proved for smooth solutions which correspond to initial data satisfying certain symmetry and moment conditions. The result is then applied to show that such solutions decay in time more rapidly than observed in general. Furthermore, an asymptotic expansion is deduced and a lower bound estimate is given for the rates of decay in time.
