AI Article Synopsis
- Depth resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and a 25 μm liquid jet were used to study the distribution of 3 nm SnO2 nanoparticles in a liquid suspension.
- The findings indicate there is a distinct layer at the air-water interface that is free of these nanoparticles, extending several nanometers thick.
- This technique helps quantify how nanoparticles migrate from the air-water interface into the bulk of the suspension.
Article Abstract
Depth resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) combined with a 25 μm liquid jet is used to quantify the spatial distribution of 3 nm SnO2 nanoparticles (NPs) from the air-water interface (AWI) into the suspension bulk. Results are consistent with those of a layer several nm thick at the AWI that is completely devoid of NPs.

The accurate estimation of the temperature distribution of the GaN based power devices and optimization of the device structure is of great significance to possibly solve the self-heating problem, which hinders the further enhancement of the device performances. We present here the operando temperature measurement with high spatial resolution using Raman spectroscopy of AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) with different device structures and explore the optimization of the device thermal design accordingly. The lateral and depth temperature distributions of the single-finger HEMT were characterized.

The characterization of phenotypes in cells or organisms from microscopy data largely depends on differences in the spatial distribution of image intensity. Multiple methods exist for quantifying the intensity distribution - or image texture - across objects in natural images. However, many of these texture extraction methods do not directly adapt to 3D microscopy data.

The proliferation of cyanobacteria has become a significant water management challenge due to the increasing eutrophication of water supply reservoirs. Cyanobacterial blooms thrive on elevated nutrient concentrations and form extensive green mats, disrupting the local ecosystem. Furthermore, many cyanobacterial species can produce toxins that are lethal to vertebrates called cyanotoxins.

We consider many-particle diffusion in one spatial dimension modeled as "random walks in a random environment." A shared short-range space-time random environment determines the jump distributions that drive the motion of the particles. We determine universal power laws for the environment's contribution to the variance of the extreme first passage time and extreme location.
