AbstractDuring his extensive travels in search of materials for the Śatapitaka, Prof. Dr. Raghu Vira undertook a journey to the Mongolian People's Republic (M.P.R.) at the invitation of the Committee of Sciences, Ulanbator. Inter alia, he discovered a hitherto unkown edition of the Tibetan Kanjur which was revised and printed in Urga during the sway of the eighth and last Jibcundampa (rje-btsun-dam-pa). Prof. Raghu Vira was told that only two copies were printed. The xylographic blocks are no longer extant. One copy is in the State Library at Ulanbator, and the other is now on the shelves of the International Academy of Indian Culture, New Delhi. It was presented to Prof. Dr. Raghu Vira in December 1955, by His Excellency Mr. U. Tsedenbal, the Prime Minister of the M.P.R.

ABSTRACTWe have studied the surface morphology of free standing single crystals of thermochromic polydiacetylenes (PDAs), namely, ETCD and IPUDO (respectively, the ethyl and isopropyl urethanes of 5,7-dodecadiyn-1,12-diol), by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) under ambient conditions. Micron scale as well as molecularly resolved images were obtained. The micron scale images indicate a variable surface, and the molecularly resolved images show a well defined 2-D lattice that is interpreted in terms of molecular models and known crystallographic data. Thereby information about surface morphology, which is crucial to potential optical device or chromic sensor performance is available. We also report the observation of a “macroscopic shattering” of the IPUDO monomer crystal during in-situ UV polymerization studies.

A 2 in.-diameter free-standing m-plane GaN wafer was fabricated through in situ self-separation from m-plane sapphire using HCl chemical reaction etching (HCRE) in hydride vapor-phase epitaxy (HVPE).

AbstractRetention of the enhanced properties reported for nanograined metallic systems requires that the nanostructure be insensitive to temperature and deformation. In situ transmission electron microscopy annealing experiments were employed to investigate the structural changes associated with the formation of micron-sized grains in nanograined evaporated gold thin films. This abnormal grain growth occurs randomly throughout the film. Twinning but not dislocation slip occurs in the growing grains until the grain size is in the hundreds of nanometer range. The twins appear to hinder growth and for grain growth to continue the twins must either be annihilated or be able to grow with the grain concurrently.
