96 Stringfellow, Gerald B.; Sadwick, Laurence P.Low pressure pyrolysis of alternate phosphorus precursors for chemical beam epitaxial growth of InP and related compoundsThe most widely used phosphorous source in chemical beam epitaxy (CBE) is phosphine (PH3). However, because it is highly toxic, alternatives to phosphine have been sought for the growth of phosphorous-containing compounds. We have investigated the pyrolysis rates and reaction products, in low pres...Chemical Beam Epitaxy; CBE1994
97 Couldwell, William T.Management of pituitary adenomasWe present an overview of the management of pituitary adenomas, with discussions of microanatomy, of diagnostic studies of general neuroendocrine function, and of radiologic evaluation. We discuss the diagnosis of pituitary adenoma and its treatment with sections on null cell, prolactin (PRL)-secre...Pituitary adenoma; Transsphenoidal surgery; Corticotropin; Prolactin; Growth hormone; Transcranial surgery1994
98 Johnson, Christopher R.Map3d: scientific visualization program for multichannel time series data on unstructured, three-dimensional meshes. program user's guideThere are many examples in biomedical research of recording time signals with multi-sensor arrays whose elements are arranged in irregular, three-dimensional grids [1, 2, 3, 4]. If the nodes in such arrays can be connected into "surfaces", it is possible to employ linear interpolation techniques to ...Map3D; Multi-sensor arrays; Scientific visualization; Multichannel time series data; Three-dimensional meshes1994
99 Horch, Kenneth W.Mechanical testing of metallic and polymeric intrafascicular electrodesWe are exploring alternatives to Pt/Ir wire for constructing ultra-flexible neural intrafascicular electrodes suitable for chronic implantation. In this study we measured the flexural properties of several kinds of fine metal wires and conducting polymer fibers. The fibers were made either of in...Intrafascicular electrodes; Polymer fibers1994
100 Rogers, Alan R.; Harpending, Henry C.Mismatch distributions of mtDNA reveal recent human population expansionsAlthough many genetic studies of human evolution have tried to make distinctions between the replacement and the multiregional evolution hypotheses, current methods and data have not resolved the issue. However, new advances in nucleotide divergence theory can complement these investigations with a ...1994
