126 Miller, Joel StevenOptical control of magnetization in a room-temperature magnet: V-Cr Prussian blue analogWe report reversible photoinduced magnetic phenomena for a V-Cr Prussian blue analog (Tc~350 K). This molecule-based magnet exhibits a decrease in magnetization upon illumination with UV light (λ~350 nm) and reaches a metastable state that has a long lifetime at low temperatures (>106 s at 10 K). ...2010-09
127 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineOptical studies of the charge transfer complex in polytiophene/fullerene blends for organic photovoltaic applicationsWe studied the photophysics of regioregular polythiophene/C61 (RR-P3HT/PCBM) blend films utilized for organic photovoltaic applications using the femtosecond transient and steady-state photomodulation techniques with above-gap and below-gap pump excitations and electroabsorption spectroscopy. We pro...2010-08
128 Hansen, Charles D.Physically-based interactive schlieren flow visualizationUnderstanding fluid flow is a difficult problem and of increasing importance as computational fluid dynamics produces an abundance of simulation data. Experimental flow analysis has employed techniques such as shadowgraph and schlieren imaging for centuries which allow empirical observation of inho...2010-03
129 Goller, FranzPhysiologically driven avian vocal synthesizerIn this work, we build an electronic syrinx, i.e., a programmable electronic device capable of integrating biomechanical model equations for the avian vocal organ in order to synthesize song. This vocal prosthesis is controlled by the bird's neural instructions to respiratory and the syringeal mot...2010-03

131 Miller, Joel StevenPressure-induced phase transition in a molecule-based magnet with interpenetrating sublatticesThe molecule-based magnet [Ru2(O2CMe)4]3[Cr(CN)6] contains two interpenetrating sublattices with sublattice moments confined to the cubic diagonals. At ambient pressure, a field of about 850 Oe rotates the antiferromagnetically coupled sublattice moments toward the field direction, producing a wasp...2010-05
132 Scarpulla, MichaelProbing semiconductor band structures and heterojunction interface properties with ballistic carrier emission: GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs as a model systemUtilizing three-terminal tunnel emission of ballistic electrons and holes in a planar tunnel transistor with a Mott-barrier collector, we have developed a method to self-consistently determine the energy gap of a semiconductor and band discontinuities at a semiconductor heterojunction without using...2010-06
133 Farmer, Colleen G.The provenance of alveolar and parabronchial lungs: insights from paleoecology and the discovery of cardiogenic, unidirectional airflow in the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis)Birds and mammals evolved greater aerobic abilities than their common ancestor had. This required expansion of the cardiopulmonary system's capacity for gas exchange, but while directional selection for his expanded capacity resulted in extremely similar avian and mammalian hearts, strikingly differ...2010-07
134 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineRecent advances in organic spin-valve devicesOrganic Spintronics has been considered to be the physics and applications of spin polarized electron injection, transport, manipulation and detection in organic diodes by the application of an external magnetic field. The prototype device is the organic spin-valve (OSV), which is based on an organi...Spin-valve devices; Organic Spintronics; Spin polarized carrier injection; OSV2010-02
135 Crowe, Benjamin D.Religion and the 'sensitive branch' of human natureAbstract: While the theses that (1) human beings are primarily passional creatures and that (2) religion is fundamentally a product of our sensible nature are both closely linked to David Hume, Hume's contemporary Henry Home, Lord Kames (1696-1782), also defended them and explored their implication...2010-06
136 Voth, Gregory Alan; Ayton, Gary S.Role of protein interactions in defining HIV-1 viral capsid shape and stability: a coarse-grained analysisCoarse-grained models of the HIV-1 CA dimer are constructed based on all-atom molecular dynamics simulations. Coarse-grained representations of the capsid shell, which is composed of approximately 1,500 copies of CA proteins, are constructed and their stability is examined. A key interaction between...Virus capsid; HIV-1; Viral capsid shape; Coarse-graining; CA dimer2010-01
137 Wei, Y. H. DennisSpatial-temporal hierarchy of regional inequality of ChinaThis paper advances the multi-scale and multi-mechanism framework of regional inequality in China by using the most recent statistical data. We analyze the multi-scalar patterns of China's regional inequality with GIS and statistical techniques, and demonstrate the significance of the municipality e...Regional inequality; Spatial hierarchy; GIS2010-07
138 Khan, Faisal HabibStart-up and dynamic modeling of the multilevel modular capacitor-clamped converterThis paper will present the analytical proof of concept of the multilevelmodular capacitor-clamped converter (MMCCC). The quantitative analysis of the charge transfer mechanism among the capacitors of the MMCCC explains the start-up and steadystate voltage balancing. Once these capacitor voltages a...2010-02
139 Stringfellow, Gerald B.Strain-enhanced doping in semiconductors: effects of dopant size and charge stateWhen a semiconductor host is doped by a foreign element, it is inevitable that a volume change will occur in the doped system. This volume change depends on both the size and charge state difference between the dopant and the host element. Unlike the ‘‘common expectation'' that if the host is de...2010-11
140 Armentrout, Peter B.Threshold collision-induced dissociation of hydrated cadmium (II): experimental and theoretical investigation of the binding energies for Cd2+(H2O)n complexes (n = 4-11)The first experimentally determined hydration energies of Cd2+(H2O)n complexes, n = 4 - 11, are measured using threshold collision-induced dissociation in a guided-ion-beam tandem mass spectrometer coupled with an electrospray-ionization source. Kinetic-energy-dependent cross-sections are obtained a...Hydrated cadmium; Collision-induced dissociation; Hydration energies; Cadmium complexes2010-02
