Perpendicular shape anisotropy (PSA) offers a practical solution to downscale spin-transfer torque magnetoresistive random-access memory (STT-MRAM) beyond the sub-20 nm technology node while retaining thermal stability. However, our understanding of the thermomagnetic behavior of PSA-STT-MRAM is often indirect, relying on magnetoresistance measurements and micromagnetic modeling. Here, the magnetism of a NiFe PSA-STT-MRAM nanopillar is investigated using off-axis electron holography, providing spatially resolved magnetic information as a function of temperature. Magnetic induction maps reveal the micromagnetic configuration of the NiFe storage layer (∼60 nm high, ≤20 nm diameter), confirming the PSA induced by its 3:1 aspect ratio. heating demonstrates that the PSA of the storage layer is maintained up to at least 250 °C, and direct quantitative measurements reveal a moderate decrease of magnetic induction. Hence, this study shows explicitly that PSA provides significant stability in STT-MRAM applications that require reliable performance over a range of operating temperatures.

Molecular Drillers for 2 nm Resolution Nanochannel Perforation of 2D Nanoplates.

Perpendicular nanochannel creation of two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures requires highly controlled anisotropic drilling processes of the entire structure via void formation. However, chemical approaches for the creation of porosity and defects of 2D nanostructures have been challenging due to the strong basal plane chemical stability and the use of harsh reactants, tending to give randomly corroded 2D structures. In this study, we introduce Lewis acid-base conjugates (LABCs) as molecular drillers with attenuated chemical reactivity which results in the well-defined perpendicular nanochannel formation of 2D TiS nanoplates.

Objective: To study the biomechanical changes induced by differences in perioral force in patients with missing anterior maxillary teeth at rest via finite element analysis (FEA).
Methods: Using conical beam CT (CBCT) images of a healthy person, models of the complete maxillary anterior dental region (Model A) and maxillary anterior dental region with a missing left maxillary central incisor (Model B) were constructed. The labial and palatine alveolar bone and tooth surface of the bilateral incisor and cusp regions were selected as the application sites, the resting perioral force was applied perpendicular to the tissue surface, and the changes in maxillary stress and displacement after the perioral force was simulated were analyzed.

Statement Of The Problem: Root canal preparation with rotary files causes dentinal cracks in root canals of primary teeth affecting their longevity.
Purpose: Nickel-titanium rotary files have been widely used for root canal preparation in primary teeth. The present study compared occurrence of dentinal microcracks in root canals of extracted primary molar teeth prepared using Hedstrom (H) files, ProTaper Universal rotary files, and ProTaper Next rotary file systems.
Radiographic Inspection of Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites (Laminates) with Epoxy and PEEK Binders After Impact and Subsequent Compression Loading.

An approach to detecting discontinuities in carbon fiber-reinforced polymers, caused by impact loading followed by compression testing, was developed. An X-ray sensor-based installation was used, while some algorithms were developed to improve the quality of the obtained low-contrast radiographic images with negligible signal-to-noise ratios. For epoxy/AF (#1) composite subjected to a "high-velocity" steel-ball impact with subsequent compression loading, it was not possible to detect discontinuities since the orientation of the extended zone of interlayer delamination was perpendicular to the irradiation axis.
