We have studied the effect of deposition pressure on the magnetization reversal, domains, anisotropy and Gilbert damping constant in the ferromagnetic (CoFeB and Co) single and bilayer samples. Hysteresis measured by magneto-optic Kerr microscopy for the single layer films prepared at higher deposition pressure indicate no change of loop shape i.e. isotropic behaviour. An enhancement of anisotropy has been observed in the bilayer samples than the single layer samples prepared at a particular deposition condition. However, increasing the deposition pressure to 50 sccm for the bilayer samples, anisotropy gets reduced. For single layer Co film deposited at 10 sccm exhibits branch and patch like domains for different angle between the easy axis and the external magnetic field. However, the Co film deposited at 50 sccm exhibits ripple like domains. In the case of single layer CoFeB, branch and patch like domains are observed deposited at 10 sccm. Patch like domains are found for the CoFeB films deposited at 50 sccm. Pinned labyrinth and ripple kind of magnetic domains along with the big branch domains are found in the bilayer samples. The pinned domains may be due to the interfacial exchange coupling. Similar values of damping constants have been observed for different thin films prepared at different deposition pressure.

Ge Epitaxy at Ultralow Growth Temperatures Enabled by a Pristine Growth Environment.

Germanium (Ge), the next-in-line group-IV material, bears great potential to add functionality and performance to next-generation nanoelectronics and solid-state quantum transport based on silicon (Si) technology. Here, we investigate the direct epitaxial growth of two-dimensional high-quality crystalline Ge layers on Si deposited at ultralow growth temperatures ( = 100-350 °C) and pristine growth pressures (≲10 mbar). First, we show that a decreasing does not degrade the crystal quality of homoepitaxial Ge/Ge(001) by comparing the point defect density using positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy.

Regulating the production distribution in Ni-Cu nanoparticle mediated nitrile hydrogenation.

Electronic address:

The selective hydrogenation of nitrile compounds represents a pivotal area of research within both industrial and academic catalysis. In this study, we prepared Ni-Cu bimetallic catalysts through a co-deposition-crystallization sequence, aimed at the efficient production of primary and secondary amines. The enhanced selectivity for primary amines is attributed to the downshift of the d-band center of NiCu, which weakens the adsorption of key imine intermediates.

Department of Otorhinolaryngology/Head and Neck, Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, No.3 East Qingchun Road, Hangzhou, 310020, Zhejiang, China.

Background: Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) is associated with hypertension and vascular remodeling. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and the Hippo-YAP pathway are implicated in these processes, but their specific roles remain unclear. This study investigated the HIF-1α/Hippo-YAP pathway in SAS-related hypertension.

Amyloid beta Aβ activates Piezo1 channels in brain capillary endothelial cells.

Amyloid-beta (Aβ) peptide accumulation on blood vessels in the brain is a hallmark of neurodegeneration. While Aβ peptides constrict cerebral arteries and arterioles, their impact on capillaries is less understood. Aβ was recently shown to constrict brain capillaries through pericyte contraction, but whether-and if so how-Aβ affects endothelial cells (ECs) remains unknown.
