Semi-insulating, powder samples of Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) have been studied using ¹¹¹In Time Differential Perturbed Angular Correlation (PAC) Spectroscopy. The samples have been lightly doped (~10¹² cm⁻³) with ¹¹¹In atoms, which occupy well-defined metal (Cd) lattice sites and act as probes of the local environment. These substitutional donors form a...
Perturbed Angular Correlation Spectroscopy (PAC) is a highly sensitive local
probe technique well suited for studying defect characteristics of solids. This technique is
applied to the problem of studying the solubility of indium in cerium oxide. Through the
measurement of samples with differing levels in indium doping, the solubility of...
Perturbed Angular Correlations (PAC) spectroscopy is an effective
local probe technique often employed in the characterization of defects or
phase transitions in any of a variety of materials. This technique relies
upon the ability of probe nuclei to function as gauges of the magnetic
fields and electric field gradients local...
The Columbia River Gillnetter is the pilot of the Lower Columbia River commercial fishing industry, keeping fishermen and the public in touch with today's important issues.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Invasive species are one of the most significant threats to native ecosystems in the nation (Mooney, 2001). As defined by Federal Executive Order 13112, a species is considered invasive if it is not native to the ecosystem under consideration, and its establishment causes or is likely to cause...
The DNA repair capabilities of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri)
were studied vising the method of autoradiography. Trout were fed a
semi-purified control diet containing 0 ppm, 50 ppm, or 300 ppm
cyclopropenoid fatty acids (CPFA) for 6-9 weeks. Liver slices were
prepared and exposed in vitro to a control treatment,...
