Adenosine 3', 5' -cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP, cAMP) and guanosine 3', 5' -cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP, cGMP) were quantitated in the central nervous system (CNS) of the insect Manduca sexta by competitive protein binding techniques. The M. sexta CNS was found to contain a strikingly high level of cGMP, about...

The paleomagnetic history of the volcanic rocks of Easter
Island was investigated using standard paleomagnetic techniques.
The remanent magnetization of 673 specimens from the three volcanic
episodes recognized on the island were measured using a spinner
magnetometer. Inclinations, declinations and virtual geomagnetic
poles were calculated for each flow. The majority...
The objective of the work reported herein is to explore the impact of decreasing channel thickness on radio-frequency (RF) sputtered amorphous indium-gallium-zinc oxide (a-IGZO) thin-film transistors (TFTs) electrical performance through the evaluation of drain current versus gate voltage (I[subscript D] − V[subscript G]) transfer curves. For a fixed set of...
The excitation and decay probabilities for resonance scattering
of radiation from an atom with two coupled excited states and one
ground state in an external static field are calculated as a function
of time and frequency. Various oscillatory behaviors are found in all
the probabilities. These oscillations depend on the...
The objective of the research presented herein is to elucidate the effect of traps in determining amorphous oxide semiconductor thin-film transistor (AOS TFT) performance using modeling and characterization. A novel method is proposed to extract the interface state distribution from a TFT transfer curve. Analysis of zinc-indium oxide (ZIO), zinc-tin...
A class of inorganic thin-film transistor (TFT) semiconductor materials has emerged involving oxides composed of post-transitional cations with (n-1)d¹⁰ns⁰ (n≥4) electronic configurations. This thesis is devoted to the pursuit of topics involving the development of these materials for TFT applications: Deposition of zinc oxide and zinc tin oxide semiconductor
