A study was conducted to investigate the formation of compositional modulation and atomic ordering in InGaP films. The results indicate that the surface diffusion is the main driving mechanism for compositional modulation on InGaP films grown by CBE and surface reconstruction shows a strong effect on both compositional modulation and the Cu[Pt.sub.[beta]] atomic ordering phenomena.

Results of a systematic high-resolution transmission electron microscopy study of the thermal evolution of bundled single-walled carbon nanotubers ( SWNTs) subjected to -4-h high -temperature heat treatment (HTT) in a vacuum at high temperatures up to 2200 degrees Celsius. Tightly packed SWNTs with a more homogenous diameter distribution (ARC) were found to exhibit a more organized thermal transformation.

Amides -- Research ,Carbon compounds -- Research ,Chemistry - Abstract
The results from a systematic study, on the effects of chemical processing of arc-derived bundles of carbon nanotubes to generate solutions containing individual single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), are presented. The study involves several steps like an initial dry oxidation step, a metal removal step followed by a debundling/dispersion step.

A careful study on the final shape of the InAs nanostructures cooled fewer than three different conditions with P(sub 2), As(sub 2), and no Group V overpressure, using reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results show that morphological studies considering the grown surface that do not take into account post growth processes can be misleading to understand the growth mechanism governing the self-assembling process.

Ferromagnetic clusters were incorporated into GaAs samples by Mn implantation and subsequent annealing. The composition and structural properties of the Mn-based nanoclusters formed at the surface and buried into the GaAs sample were analyzed by x-ray and microscopic techniques. Our measurements indicate the presence of buried MnAs nanoclusters with a structural phase transition around 40 °C, in accord with the first-order magneto-structural phase transition of bulk MnAs. We discuss the structural behavior of these nanoclusters during their formation and phase transition, which is an important point for technological applications.

High blood pressure, blood glucose, serum cholesterol, and BMI are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and some of these factors also increase the risk of chronic kidney disease and diabetes. We estimated mortality from cardiovascular diseases, chronic kidney disease, and diabetes that was attributable to these four cardiometabolic risk factors for all countries and regions from 1980 to 2010., 0, info:eu-repo/semantics/published

Summary Background Excess bodyweight is a major public health concern. However, few worldwide comparative analyses of long-term trends of body-mass index (BMI) have been done, and none have used recent national health examination surveys. We estimated worldwide trends in population mean BMI. Methods We estimated trends and their uncertainties of mean BMI for adults 20 years and older in 199 countries and territories. We obtained data from published and unpublished health examination surveys and epidemiological studies (960 country-years and 9·1 million participants). For each sex, we used a Bayesian hierarchical model to estimate mean BMI by age, country, and year, accounting for whether a study was nationally representative. Findings Between 1980 and 2008, mean BMI worldwide increased by 0·4 kg/m 2 per decade (95% uncertainty interval 0·2–0·6, posterior probability of being a true increase >0·999) for men and 0·5 kg/m 2 per decade (0·3–0·7, posterior probability >0·999) for women. National BMI change for women ranged from non-significant decreases in 19 countries to increases of more than 2·0 kg/m 2 per decade (posterior probabilities >0·99) in nine countries in Oceania. Male BMI increased in all but eight countries, by more than 2 kg/m 2 per decade in Nauru and Cook Islands (posterior probabilities >0·999). Male and female BMIs in 2008 were highest in some Oceania countries, reaching 33·9 kg/m 2 (32·8–35·0) for men and 35·0 kg/m 2 (33·6–36·3) for women in Nauru. Female BMI was lowest in Bangladesh (20·5 kg/m 2 , 19·8–21·3) and male BMI in Democratic Republic of the Congo 19·9 kg/m 2 (18·2–21·5), with BMI less than 21·5 kg/m 2 for both sexes in a few countries in sub-Saharan Africa, and east, south, and southeast Asia. The USA had the highest BMI of high-income countries. In 2008, an estimated 1·46 billion adults (1·41–1·51 billion) worldwide had BMI of 25 kg/m 2 or greater, of these 205 million men (193–217 million) and 297 million women (280–315 million) were obese. Interpretation Globally, mean BMI has increased since 1980. The trends since 1980, and mean population BMI in 2008, varied substantially between nations. Interventions and policies that can curb or reverse the increase, and mitigate the health effects of high BMI by targeting its metabolic mediators, are needed in most countries.
