    Description: Insects have an efficient defense system against infections. Their antibacterial immune proteins have been well characterized. However, the molecular mechanisms by which insects recognize foreignness are not yet known. Data are presented showing that hemolin (previously named P4), a bacteria-inducible hemolymph protein of the giant silk moth Hyalophora cecropia, belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. Functional analyses indicate that hemolin is one of the first hemolymph components to bind to the bacterial surface, taking part in a protein complex formation that is likely to initiate the immune response.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sun, S C -- Lindstrom, I -- Boman, H G -- Faye, I -- Schmidt, O -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 21;250(4988):1729-32.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology, University of Stockholm, Sweden.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2270488" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The eukaryotic transcription factor nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) participates in many parts of the genetic program mediating T lymphocyte activation and growth. Nuclear expression of NF-kappa B occurs after its induced dissociation from its cytoplasmic inhibitor I kappa B alpha. Phorbol ester and tumor necrosis factor-alpha induction of nuclear NF-kappa B is associated with both the degradation of performed I kappa B alpha and the activation of I kappa B alpha gene expression. Transfection studies indicate that the I kappa B alpha gene is specifically induced by the 65-kilodalton transactivating subunit of NF-kappa B. Association of the newly synthesized I kappa B alpha with p65 restores intracellular inhibition of NF-kappa B DNA binding activity and prolongs the survival of this labile inhibitor. Together, these results show that NF-kappa B controls the expression of I kappa B alpha by means of an inducible autoregulatory pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sun, S C -- Ganchi, P A -- Ballard, D W -- Greene, W C -- 5T32CA09111/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Mar 26;259(5103):1912-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Gladstone Institute of Virology and Immunology, University of California, San Francisco.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8096091" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Notes: Abstract This paper presents some analysis techniques to estimate the passive damping ability of viscoelastically damped, fiber-reinforced, polymer composite materials. The potential use of passive damping treatments to further enhance the damping ability of composite structural elements is discussed. Experimental comparisons are provided wherever possible.

    Notes: In this letter we report the growth of high quality AlN epitaxial layers on sapphire substrates. The AlN grown on (00⋅1) sapphire exhibited a better crystalline quality than that grown on (01⋅2) sapphire. An x-ray rocking curve of AlN on (00⋅1) Al2O3 yielded a full width at half-maximum of 97.2 arcsec, which is the narrowest value reported to our knowledge. The AlN peak on (01⋅2) Al2O3 was about 30 times wider. The absorption edge measured by ultraviolet transmission spectroscopy for AlN grown on (00⋅1) Al2O3 was about 197 nm.

    Notes: We calculate the optical gain and threshold current density of strained-layer InGaAs/AlGaAs quantum-well lasers with the band-gap renormalization effects taken into account. It is found that the band-gap renormalization shifts the lasing wavelength as much as 30 nm which is much larger than the allowed bandwidths, ±6 nm, of 980 nm Er-doped optical fiber amplifiers. We also try to optimize the graded-index separate-confinement-heterostructure optical waveguide layer in order to maximize the optical confinement factor and to reduce its fabrication dependence. The threshold current densities are calculated for the optimized structures for which the gain peak positions are predicted to be within the allowed bandwidths of 980 nm. © 1994 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: In this article, we present a crystallographic model to describe the epitaxial growth of wurtzite-type thin films such as gallium nitride (GaN) on different orientations of sapphire (Al2O3) substrates. Through this model, we demonstrate the thin films grown on (00⋅1)Al2O3 have a better epilayer-substrate interface quality than those grown on (01⋅2)Al2O3. We also show the epilayer grown on (00⋅1)Al2O3 are gallium-terminated, and both (00⋅1) and (01⋅2) surfaces of sapphire crystals are oxygen-terminated.

    Notes: Single crystals of GaN were grown on (0001), (011¯2) Al2O3 and (0001)Si 6H-SiC substrates using an atmospheric pressure metalorganic chemical-vapor-deposition reactor. The relationship has been studied between the thermal stability of the GaN films and the substrate's surface polarity. It appeared that the N-terminated (0001) GaN surface grown on (0001)Si 6H-SiC has the most stable surface, followed by the nonpolar (112¯0) GaN surface grown on (011¯2) Al2O3, while the Ga-terminated (0001) GaN surface grown on (0001) Al2O3 has the least stable surface. This is explained with the difference in the atomic configuration of each of these surfaces which induces a difference in their thermal decomposition.

    Notes: High-quality thin aluminum nitride films were grown on different orientations of sapphire substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. (00⋅1) AlN thin film grown on (00⋅1) Al2O3 has better crystallinity than (11⋅0) AlN on (01⋅2) sapphire. Full width at half maximum of a rocking curve is 97.2 arcsec, which is the narrowest value to our knowledge. A crystallographic model between AlN thin films and sapphire substrates was proposed to explain the process of crystal growth. "Extended atomic distance mismatch'' which is the mismatch of atomic distance for a longer period was introduced. It is shown that the mismatch is relaxed by edge-type dislocations. Extended atomic distance mismatch was used to interpret the results that (00⋅1) AlN has better crystallinity than (11⋅0) AlN, but (11⋅0) GaN has better crystallinity than (00⋅1) GaN.

    Notes: We report the first investigation of femtosecond gain dynamics in InGaAs/AlGaAs strained-layer single-quantum-well diode lasers using a multiple-wavelength pump probe technique. Studies demonstrate that carrier temperature changes from free-carrier absorption and stimulated transitions strongly govern transient gain dynamics. The energy of the pump wavelength relative to the transparency point determines which processes dominate the transient response. Stimulated carrier cooling is observed for the first time in these materials.

    Notes: Photon emission spectra resulting from the impact of N2, N+2, and electron beams on magnesium fluoride in an ultrahigh vacuum environment were measured and compared for beam energies in the range of 200–2000 eV. Unexpectedly, only the ion- and electron-induced spectra exhibited broad fluorescence. The observed data suggest that the broad fluorescence arising from low-energy ion bombardment is due primarily to the transfer of electronic energy to the surface by resonance or Auger neutralization. Since molecular nitrogen is a major constituent of the atmosphere at orbital altitudes, these measurements bear directly on radiation-induced glow and erosion processes on surfaces of spacecraft in low-earth orbit.
