Radiation patterns of electric dipole antenna in the presence of a biisotropic sphere

Analytic expressions of the dyadic Green's function of an arbitrary electric current source embedded in a general biisotropic sphere are presented at first, and the radiation characteristics of an electric dipole antenna placed on the surface of a biisotropic sphere lens are examined. The effects of the electric-and the magnetic-coefficients ( _e and _m ) of biisotropic medium on the radiation patterns of electric dipole antenna are investigated in detail.

These results extend some results obtained by G. F. Lawler about the intersection properties of simple random walks in Z ⁴. By using similar arguments, we also get corresponding results for the intersections of Wiener sausages in four dimensions. In particular, a conjecture suggested by M. Aizenman, which describes nonintersection of independent Wiener sausages in R ⁴, is proven.Partly supported by AvH Foundation.

Large-scale synthesis of tube-like ZnS and cable-like ZnS-ZnO arrays: Preparation through the sulfuration conversion from ZnO arrays via a simple chemical solution route

Arrayed structures are desirable for many applications, but the fabrication of many material arrays remains a significant challenge. As a prominent II-VI semiconductor, large-scale arrayed ZnS structure has not been easily fabricated. Here, we introduce a simple structure conversion route for the synthesis of novel arrayed structures, and large-scale tube-like ZnS structure arrays and cable-like ZnS-ZnO composite arrays were successfully prepared through sulfuration conversion from arrayed rod-like ZnO structure based on a hydrothermal method at low temperature. XRD, EDS, SEM, TEM and PL are used to confirm the formation of the novel arrayed structure and trace the conversion process. The results show that the conversion ratio can be conveniently tailored by the reaction time, and the PL properties of the obtained materials can be adjusted through the conversion ratio. Especially, the cable-like structure holds the PL properties of both ZnO and ZnS structures. This simple solution method can be further extended to the preparation of other semiconductor sulfide and selenide, and can amplify the application field of large-scale arrays of semiconductors.     

Determination of hexamethylene-based isocyanates in spray-painting operations. Part 1. Evaluation of a polyurethane foam sponge sampler

A polyurethane foam (PUF) sponge was mounted in a cassette sampler and evaluated as a sorbent for the collection of hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) monomer and HDI-based oligomers. Recovery studies indicated 112 +/- 34% average recovery of HDI monomer and 92 +/- 9% and 97 +/- 25% average recovery of HDI-based oligomers when using impregnated PUF sponges. The PUF sponge was also evaluated during actual spray-painting operations. In a series of side-by-side sampling events, an impinger filled with 1-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazine (MOP) in toluene was compared directly with a cassette sampler containing a PUF sponge impregnated with MOP or 1-(9-anthracenylmethyl)piperazine (MAP) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). For the analysis of HDI-based oligomer, there is no significant difference (p < 0.05, n = 7) in the air concentration when sampling with either the PUF sponge cassette or the impinger. The results are significant because they indicate that a PUF sponge, which is more convenient than an impinger, may be used for the collection of HDI-based oligomer generated during spray-painting operations.     

Simulations of stochastic sensing of proteins

We have performed Langevin dynamics and Poisson-Nernst-Planck calculations to simulate detection of proteins by genetically engineered alpha-hemolysin channels. In the recent stochastic sensing experiments, one end of a flexible polymer chain is permanently anchored inside the protein channel at a specified location, and the other end undergoes complexation with an analyte. Our simulations, using coarse-grained modeling, reproduce all essential qualitative results of the electrophysiology measurements of stochastic sensing. In addition, the underlying macromolecular mechanisms behind stochastic sensing are revealed in vivid details. The entropic fluctuations of the conformations of the tethered polymer chain dictate crucially the unique signatures of the ionic current trace of the channel and provide design rules for successful stochastic sensing. The origin of strong fluctuations in the ionic current of the channel is found to arise from the obstruction of the entrance at the beta-barrel of the channel by the fluctuating segments of the tether. Silencing of the pore is due to the suppression of conformational fluctuations of the chain, and the permanent blockade of ionic current is due to the threading of the tether through the channel. The onset of silencing and permanent blockade of the channel current cannot necessarily be attributed to the capture of analytes. In order for detection events to be timed accurately, the length and anchoring location of the tether must be tuned appropriately.
