Bimetallic nanoparticles of silver (Ag) and gold (Au) were synthesized at room temperature using Curcumin. Reduction process of silver and gold ions with different molar ratios leads to production of different nanostructures including alloys and core-shells. Produced nanoparticles were characterized simultaneously with FTIR, UV/vis. spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDAX). UV/vis. optical absorption spectra of as synthesized nanoparticles reveals presence of surface palsmon resonance (SPR) of both silver at (425 nm) and gold at (540 nm) with small shift and broadness of gold band after mixing with resucing and capping agent in natural extract which suggest presence of bimetallic nano structure (Au/Ag). FTIR and EDAX data approve the presence of bimetallic nano structure combined with curcumin extract. TEM micrographs shows that silver and gold can be synthesized separately in the form of nano particles using curcumin extract. Synthesis of gold nano particles in presence of silver effectively enhance and control formation of bi-metallic structure.

Abstract FIB Micromachining has long been an established technique, but until recently it has been overshadowed by the more mainstream semiconductor application of the Focused Ion Beam system. Nano- Structure fabrication using the FIB system has become more popular recently due to several factors. The need for sub-micron structures have grown significantly due to a need for enhanced optical and biological applications. Another reason for the growth in micromachining is the improvement made in the ability of FIB systems to produce geometric shapes with high precision. With the latest high-end FIB systems, it is possible to produce microstructures with tens of nano-meters of precision. Optical lens, AFM tips, and nano-apertures are all part of the growing application for FIB Micromachining. This paper will discuss the ability and limitations of the FIB system and some possible application for FIB Micromachining.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of gamma sterilization and its effect on microscopic structure of deeply frozen dog skull. Subjects and methods: 50 pairs of dog skull fragments have the same size,which were taken symmetrically through the midline of the skull, were divided into two lots. Evident lot consisting of 50 pieces are just deeply frozen, not irradicated. Experimental lot which was composed of 50 pieces were deeply frozen and exposed to 25kGy of gamma radiation. Afterwards, to evaluate the effect of gamma sterilization and compare the alter of bone matrix between lot groups. Results: After gamma irradiation, all dog skull fragments were negative with bacteriological examination. In microscopic scale, no difference was found between the two lots and there was no structural change in the irradiated fragments of all dog skull. Conclusion: Gamma irradiation with 25 kGy: (i) It has the ability to kill bacteria completely in the type of bacteria commonly infected tissue. (ii) It does not alter the structure of dog skull in microstructures. Key words: dog skull, gamma, sterilize
