Study of magnetization reversal in ultra-thin magnetic cobalt(x)((chromium(17)tantalum(5))(1-x)/platinum multilayer using in situ MOKE
(1997)
The magnetization reversal mechanism in Co/Pt and CoCrTa/Pt thin-film multilayers was investigated in situ using a Magneto-Optical Kerr Effect (MOKE) apparatus. Multilayers Nx(Co/Pt) and Nx(CoCrTa/Pt) with different amounts ...
Ferromagnetism of novel ultrathin films and multilayers: A study of Ru/C(0001) and Fe/Mn/Fe/Pd(100) using magneto-optic Kerr effect and spin-sensitive electron spectroscopies
(1997)
The possibility of the existence of ferromagnetic order in Ru monolayers on the C(0001) graphite surface is studied using electron induced spin-polarized secondary electron emission (SPSEE). Below a surface Curie temperature ...
Purification of small bandgap fullerenes
(1997)
A process for purification of the previously insoluble empty fullerenes and endohedral metallofullerenes was developed, based on sublimation from the soot and subsequent solubilization by electrochemical reduction. The ...
Laser-assisted metalorganic chemical vapor deposition of zinc sulfide
(1997)
Laser-assisted metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) was used to grow crystalline zinc sulfide at temperatures as low as 200$\sp\circ$C. The metalorganic sources, dimethylzinc and diethylsulfide, were photodissociated ...
Towards a fullerene-based nanotechnology: The (10,10) tube
(1997)
While fullerenes form in yields exceeding 30% by mass when a laser generated pure carbon vapor is allowed to condense under annealing conditions, more than 70% of all vaporized carbon assembles in the form of single-wall ...
Electrostatic adhesion testing of metallizations on silicon substrates
(1997)
A novel technique is developed to measure quantitatively the adhesion strength of metallizations deposited on substrates such as silicon. Electrostatic adhesion testing employs electrostatic forces to generate delaminating ...
Biodegradable polymer scaffold fabrication and the creation of tissue-engineered bone
(1997)
It is estimated that over one million surgeries to restore lost bone function are performed each year in the U.S. Although existing therapies generally result in adequate restoration of mechanical or aesthetic function, ...
A structural analysis of Al(3)Ti and Al(3)Ti-Nb titanium trialuminides by XRD and EXAFS
(1997)
In an effort to expand the composition range over which Al$\sb3$Ti is stable, various amounts of niobium were substituted for titanium and processed by melt-spinning. In order to characterize $\rm Al\sb3Ti\sb{x}Nb\sb{y},$ ...
Study of degradation in tunneling oxide thin films in EEPROM and FLASH EEPROM test stuctures
(1997)
Degradation of the tunneling oxide film in EEPROM and FLASH memory test structures has been studied. Two models have been used to characterize the tunneling induced degradation of the oxide thin film. They are the effective ...
Reduced exchange coupling in perpendicular multilayers
(1997)
The ideal magnetic switching mechanism for magnetic recording is isolated domain coherent rotation. However, in typical Pd/Co and Pt/Co multilayers with high coercivity, the dominant switching mechanism is domain wall ...
