This work was partially supported by the Mitsubishi Chemical Center for Advanced Materials at UCSB and the Air Force Office of Scientific Research through the MURI Center (“Polymeric Smart Skins”), Charles Lee, Program Officer. Synthesis of the CF3OXD and related tetrahedrally coordinated molecules was supported by a grant to G. Bazan from DuPont Displays. The XPS results were obtained by using the MRL (Material Research Laboratory at UCSB) Central Facilities supported by the National Science Foundation under DMR 96-32716. We thank Prof. W. R. Salaneck of Linköping University (Sweden) for important comments. X. Gong is grateful to Dr. Gang Yu …

Long-chain fatty acid uptake, which provides a large part of myocardial energy, is impaired in human and murine hearts deficient in the membrane fatty acid translocase, FAT/CD36. We examined myocardial function in CD36-null mice using the working heart. Fatty acid oxidation and stores of glycogen, triglycerides, and ATP were reduced in CD36-deficient hearts and were restored to WT levels by rescue of myocyte CD36. Under normal perfusion conditions, CD36-null hearts had similar cardiac outputs and end-diastolic pressures as WT or transgenic hearts. After 6 min of ischemia, cardiac output decreased by 41% and end diastolic pressure tripled for CD36-null hearts, …

Manufacturing Interoperability, Steven Ray, Al Jones
Steven R Ray
As manufacturing and commerce become ever more global in nature, companies are increasingly dependent upon the efficient and effective exchange of information with their partners, wherever they may be. Leading manufacturers rely upon computers to perform this information exchange, which must therefore be encoded for electronic transmission. Because no single company can dictate that all its partners use the same software, standards for how the information is represented become critical for cost-effective, errorfree transmission of data. This paper discusses some interoperability issues related to current standards, and describes two projects underway at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in …

Apparatus For Illuminating The Tip-Sample Interface Of An Atomic Force Microscope, Nancy Burnham, E Thoreson
Nancy A. Burnham
An apparatus for the delivery of radiation to the tip-sample interface of an atomic force microscope(AFM) is demonstrated. The pulsed light delivery system (PLDS) was fabricated to probe photoinduced conformational changes of molecules using an AFM. The system is 67 mm long, 59 mm wide, and 21 mm high, leaving clearance to mount the PLDS and a microscope slide coated with a thin film of photoactive molecules beneath the cantilever tip of a stand-alone AFM. The PLDS is coupled into a fiber pigtailed Nd:yttrium–aluminum–garnetfrequency doubled laser, operating at a wavelength of 532 nm. The radiation delivered to a sample through …
