Palladium single-crystal films have been prepared by Matthews in ultra-high vacuum by evaporation onto (001) NaCl substrates cleaved in-situ, and maintained at ∼ 350° C. Murr has also produced large-grained and single-crystal Pd films by high-rate evaporation onto (001) NaCl air-cleaved substrates at 350°C. In the present work, very large (∼ 3cm2), continuous single-crystal films of Pd have been prepared by flash evaporation onto air-cleaved (001) NaCl substrates at temperatures at or below 250°C. Evaporation rates estimated to be ≧ 2000 Å/sec, were obtained by effectively short-circuiting 1 mil tungsten evaporation boats in a self-regulating system which maintained an optimum load current of approximately 90 amperes; corresponding to a current density through the boat of ∼ 4 × 104 amperes/cm2.

An crystal-growth technique for single crystal x-ray structure analysis of high-pressure forms of hydrogen-bonded crystals is proposed. We used alcohol mixture (methanol: ethanol = 4:1 in volumetric ratio), which is a widely used pressure transmitting medium, inhibiting the nucleation and growth of unwanted crystals. In this paper, two kinds of single crystals which have not been obtained using a conventional experimental technique were obtained using this technique: ice VI at 1.99 GPa and MgCl<sub>2</sub>·7H<sub>2</sub>O at 2.50 GPa at room temperature. Here we first report the crystal structure of MgCl2·7H2O. This technique simultaneously meets the requirement of hydrostaticity for high-pressure experiments and has feasibility for further in-situ measurements.

Crack Propagation Behavior

An in situ scanning electron microscope (SEM) tensile test for Ni-based single-crystal superalloy was carried out at 1000 °C. The stress displacement was obtained, and the yield strength and tensile strength of the superalloy were 699 MPa and 826 MPa, respectively. The crack propagation process, consisting of Model I crack and crystallographic shearing crack, was determined. More interestingly, the crack propagation path and rate affected by eutectics was directly observed and counted. Results show that the coalescence of the primary crack and second microcrack at the interface of a γ/γ′ matrix and eutectics would make the crack propagation rate increase from 0.3 μm/s to 0.4 μm/s. On the other hand, crack deflection decreased the rate to 0.05 μm/s. Moreover, movement of dislocations in front of the crack was also analyzed to explain the different crack propagation behavior in the superalloy.

ABSTRACTNear-single-crystal diamond films have been obtained in a number of laboratories recently. The optimization of nucleation density by using a bias-enhanced nucleation (BEN) method is believed to be a critical step. However, the condition of optimized nucleation has never been clearly delineated. In the present report, a novel quantitative technique was established to monitor the nucleation of diamond in-situ. Specifically, the induced current was measured as a function of nucleation time during BEN. The timedependence of induced current was studied under various methane concentrations as well as substrate temperatures. The optimized nucleation condition can be unambiguously determined from the current-time plot. Besides the in-situ current probe, ex-situ x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were also used to investigate the chemical and morphological evolution. Characteristic XPS and AFM features of optimized nucleation is discussed.

DNA quadruplexes (qs) are a class of “non-canonical” oligonucleotides (OGNs) composed of stacked guanine (G) quartets stabilized by specific cations. Metal porphyrins selectively bind to G-qs complexes to form what is known as DNAzyme, which can exhibit peroxidase and other catalytic activity similar to heme group metalloenzymes. In the present study we investigate the electrochemical properties and the structure of DNAzyme monolayers on single-crystal Au(111)-electrode surfaces using cyclic voltammetry and scanning tunnelling microscopy under electrochemical potential control (in situ STM). The target DNAzyme is formed from a single-strand OGN with 12 guanines and iron(iii) porphyrin IX (hemin), and assembles on Au(111) through a mercapto alkyl linker. The DNAzyme monolayers exhibit a strong pair of redox peaks at 0.0 V (NHE) at pH 7 in acetate buffer, shifted positively by about 50 mV compared to free hemin weakly physisorbed on the Au(111)-electrode surface. The voltammetric hemin signal of DNAzyme is enhanced 15 times compared with that of hemin adsorbed directly on the Au(111)-electrode surface. This is indicative of both the formation of a close to dense DNAzyme monolayer and that hemin is strongly bound to the immobilized 12G-qs in well-defined orientation favorable for interfacial ET with a rate constant of 6.0 ± 0.4 s−1. This is supported by in situ STM which discloses single-molecule G-quartet structures with a size of 1.6 ± 0.2 nm.
