Electrophoretic drawing of continuous fibers of single-walled carbon nanotubes
Control over the current during electrophoretic drawing of continuous fibers of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is shown to be critical in producing long fibers with specific diameters. In the...

Enhancement of flux pinning and critical currents in YBa2Cu3O7–delta films by nanoscale iridium pretreatment of substrate surfaces
We have acquired positive results in a controlled study to investigate the effects of substrate surface modification on the growth-induced flux-pinning nanostructures in YBa2Cu3O7– (YBCO) films. ...

The orientation dependence of thin-crystal lattice fringes can be gracefully quantified using fringe-visibility maps, a direct-space analog of Kikuchi maps [Nishikawa and Kikuchi, Nature (London) 121, 1019 (1928)]. As in navigation of reciprocal space with the aid of Kikuchi lines, fringe-visibility maps facilitate acquisition of crystallographic information from lattice images. In particular, these maps can help researchers to determine the three-dimensional lattice of individual nanocrystals, to "fringe-fingerprint" collections of randomly oriented particles, and to measure local specimen thickness with only a modest tilt. Since the number of fringes in an image increases with maximum spatial-frequency squared, these strategies (with help from more precise goniometers) will be more useful as aberration correction moves resolutions into the subangstrom range. ©2005 American Institute of Physics
