Hydrothermal Reaction Mechanism and Pathway for the Formation of K2Ti6O13 Nanowires

Calculations and detailed first principle and thermodynamic analyses have been performed to understand the formation mechanism of K₂Ti₆O₁₃ nanowires (NWs) by a hydrothermal reaction between bulk Na₂Ti₃O₇ crystals and a KOH solution. It is found that direct ion exchange between K⁺ and Na⁺ plus H⁺ interactions with [TiO₆] octahedra in Na₂Ti₃O₇ promote the formation of an intermediate H₂K₂Ti₆O₁₄ phase. The large lattice mismatch between this intermediate phase and the bulk Na₂Ti₃O₇ structure, and the large energy reduction associated with the formation of this intermediate phase, drive the splitting of the bulk crystal into H₂K₂Ti₆O₁₄ NWs. However, these NWs are not stable because of large [TiO₆] octahedra distortion and are subject to a dehydration process, which results in uniform K₂Ti₆O₁₃ NWs with narrowly distributed diameters of around 10 nm.     

Traveling-wave piezoelectric linear motor Part I: the stator design.

A new type of piezoelectric linear motor incorporating a traveling wave has been developed. The linear motor is comprised of a stator and a carriage. The stator design, which consists of a meander-line structure and gear teeth mounted on the meander-line structure, is the focus of this article. The meander-line structure is constructed with bimorph actuators arranged in a line. These actuators are driven by two phased sets of alternating current (ac) in order to generate a traveling wave. The traveling wave is transferred to the gear teeth, by which the carriage is driven. Modeling of the stator is derived by use of a strain energy method. The performance of various materials is evaluated by analytical and experimental methods. The analytical and the experimental results are quite approximate. Modal analysis is investigated using ANSYS. Appropriate modes associated with ultrasonic levels of resonant frequency are selected to obtain desired motion and to enhance the output performance. Surface speed for various applied input voltage are studied and indicate a nearly linear relationship. The stator in combination with the carriage makes up the linear motor.     

Gastrointestinal autonomic nerve tumour presenting as small bowel volvulus: a rare disease with a rare presentation

A 78-year-old Chinese woman presented with recurrent postprandial abdominal pain. Computerised tomography revealed a small bowel tumour causing volvulus of a segment of the small bowel. Laparotomy confirmed an extraluminal ileal tumour with partial volvulus of the involved small bowel segment. Small bowel resection was done. Histological and ultrastructural studies confirmed a gastrointestinal autonomic nerve tumour. We review the medical literature on this rare tumour.     

Pass-transistor adiabatic logic with NMOS pull-down configuration

A new low power adiabatic logic family, pass-transistor adiabatic logic with NMOS pull-down configuration, is presented. For a 2:1 multiplexer, a power saving of ~800% is achieved, compared to a 2N-2N2P logic circuit at 20 MHz. Compared to pass-transistor adiabatic logic using single power-clock supply (PAL), the `tri-state' problem is solved, while power consumption is comparable. A four phase sinusoidal clock power supply is employed in the new logic family, which facilitates pipelining hence leading to higher throughput, compared to PAL     

Effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors on the progression of nondiabetic renal disease: a meta-analysis of randomized trials. Angiotensin-Converting-Enzyme Inhibition and Progressive Renal Disease Study Group

BACKGROUND: The effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors in slowing the decline in renal function in nondiabetic renal disease varies among studies. PURPOSE: To use meta-analysis to assess the effect of ACE inhibitors on the development of end-stage renal disease caused by factors other than diabetes. DATA SOURCES: The English-language medical literature, identified by a MEDLINE search and unpublished studies. STUDY SELECTION: All randomized studies that compared ACE inhibitors with other antihypertensive agents and had at least 1 year of planned follow-up were selected. Studies of diabetic renal disease and renal transplants were excluded. A total of 1594 patients in 10 studies was included. DATA EXTRACTION: Data on end-stage renal disease, death, drop out, and blood pressure were extracted. Study investigators confirmed results and provided additional data. DATA SYNTHESIS: Among 806 patients receiving ACE inhibitors, 52 (6.4%) developed end-stage renal disease and 17 (2.1%) died; in the 788 controls, the respective values were 72 (9.1%) and 12 (1.5%). The pooled relative risks were 0.70 (95% CI, 0.51 to 0.97) for end-stage renal disease and 1.24 (CI, 0.55 to 2.83) for death; the studies were not significantly heterogeneous. The decreases in weighted mean systolic and diastolic blood pressures during follow-up were 4.9 and 1.2 mm Hg greater, respectively, in the patients who received ACE inhibitors. CONCLUSIONS: Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors are more effective than other antihypertensive agents in reducing the development of end-stage nondiabetic renal disease, and they do not increase mortality. It could not be determined whether this beneficial effect is due to the greater decline in blood pressure or to other effects of ACE inhibition.

Investigation of optical losses in photoelastic and ridge waveguides in GaAs-AlGaAs heterostructures

Two approaches have been used to fabricate stable photoelastic waveguides with planarized surfaces on GaAs-AlGaAs heterostructures. The first approach uses tensile Ni/sub 3/GaAs stressors formed by metal-semiconductor reactions. The second approach uses inert, refractory and compressive stressors, such as RF sputtered W and RF co-sputtered WNi films. For comparison purposes, ridge waveguides have also been fabricated using the same heterostructure by a dry etching technique. Optical losses of photoelastic waveguides, measured by Fabry-Perot (FP) method at a wavelength of 1.53 /spl mu/m, are comparable to or better than those of the ridge waveguides. Material loss appears to be the primary loss mechanism in both photoelastic and ridge waveguides. These results indicate that the photoelastic waveguide processing technique reported in this study is a promising alternative to commonly used dry etching techniques for planarization.     

热敏电缆在拉拔减径工艺过程中的性能变化

在拉拔减径工艺的初始阶段，装填于热敏电缆中的氧化物陶瓷热敏材料粉的体积将发生收缩，随后体积不再发生变化。对于不经过热处理的样品，理论分析和实验结果表明，体积收缩停止后，其每米电阻值不随尺寸变化而改变。由于安装等因素引起的芯线电极的位置偏差不公带来样品电阻较大的变化。对于经过热处理的样品，其电阻值在热处理前后及拉拔减径过程中都有较大的变化（可达几个数量级），变化规律较为紊乱。实验分析发现，热处理后的
