Sample pattern

X-ray diffraction has been applied to certain AB cements. For example. Crisp et al. (1979), in a study of silicate mineral-poly(acrylic acid) cements, used the technique both to assess the purity of the powdered minerals employed and to monitor mineral decomposition in mixtures with poly(acrylic acid), in order to indicate whether or not cement formation had taken place. They employed Cu radiation passed through a nickel filter for most of the samples, a seven-hour exposure time was found to be adequate for the development of a discernible diffraction pattern. Samples were identified by reference to published powder diffraction data.

Focused X-ray beam (at Beam Line 15A) was used for this study. In order to improve the resolution, the focused beam (about 1 x 1.5 mm) was cut into 0.9-0.5 mm O by apertures which were set just in front of the cell. Modulation frequency was 10 Hz. Scanning X-Y stage which was originally developed for the laser microscopy was set perpendicular to the surface of the iron-base table and scanning and data acquisition were controlled by PC-9801 VM2 microcomputer (NEC Co. Ltd.) with the original program Various size and shape of metal foils were glued on the paper to have a model patterned sample.

X-Ray Powder Patterns. Samples for x-ray pattern determinations were sealed in 0.2-mm. glass capillary tubes under an atmosphere of argon. The samples were then exposed to nickel-filtered, CuKa radiation in an 11.459-cm. Debye-Scherrer camera for 18 to 20 hours. 

Powder patterns. Sample A was highly crystalline and showed two interconvertible powder patterns one at high relative humidity (76% - 98%), and the other in vacuo (Table III). The d spacings of these patterns differ from those of fiber patterns of either sample B or sample C (Table I). Mutan (sample D) also showed a clear pattern similar to that of sample A in vacuo. However, this pattern did not change by varying the relative humidity (Table IE). 

The change of the crystal structure of (l- -3)-a-D-glucan should be compared to the case of (l- -3)-3-D-glucan (curdlan). Although curdlan changes its polymorphic form by annealing (6), neither the fiber patterns (samples B and C) nor the powder patterns (samples A and D) underwent polymorphic transformations due to annealing. 

After preprocessing the data, the search begins to find the features in the data that show the largest differences between patterns. This process is very much dependent on the type of detectors in the detection system but may involve comparing the relative amplitudes of the different detectors in the array, the derivative of the response, or even mathematical transforms of the data to select which features show the most differentiation between the patterns of different analytes. For our examples described in Section 5.3., we chose to use 120-data point analyte signature patterns sampled from the entire shape of the signal from a detector array of four cantilevers with coatings described in Section 3.5. 

After chemical analysis with XPS at the various states of samples preparation, imaging ToF-SIMS analysis was applied to identify characteristic fragments of MAD-Gal at the surface. Figure 3 illustrates the negative F ion distribution on a masked-assisted patterned sample after photobonding. 

Nb thin films have been deposited on PS substrates, with pores diameter and interpore distance 0 = 10 nm and A = 40 nm, respectively. The samples show well developed superconducting properties. Critical temperature and critical current measurements were performed on unpatterned samples. Future work will deal with critical current density measurements carried out on patterned samples. 

The mass spectra of both samples show molecular ions at = 98, corre- spending to C7H14, but the two spectra differ considerably in their frag- J mentation patterns. Sample B shows a base peak at tn/z = 83, correspond ing to the loss of a CH3 group (15 mass units) from the molecular ion, but sample A has only a small peak at m/z = 83. Conversely, A has its base peak at miz = 69, corresponding to the loss of a CH2CH3 group (29 mass units), but B has a rather small peak at m/z = 69. We can therefore be reasonably certain that B is methylcyclohexane and A is ethylcyclopentane. 

Because the observed diffraction pattern is a product of the diffraction patterns from the two distributions, what is observed at each nonzero point in the combined transform, or diffraction pattern determined by the periodic point lattice in Figure 5.8c, is the value of the Fourier transform at that point from the continuous distribution in Figure 5.8a. That is, the combined diffraction pattern samples the continuous Fourier transform of the object making up the array, that of Figure 5.8b, but only at those discrete points permitted by the array s periodic, discrete transform seen in Figure 5.8d. 

Identification of the unknown begins with making its diffraction pattern. Sample preparation should result in fine grain size and in a minimum of preferred orientation, which can cause relative line intensities to differ markedly from their normal values. Note also that relative line intensities depend to some extent on wavelength this should be kept in mind if the observed pattern is compared with one in the data file made with a different wavelength. Most of the patterns in the file were made with Cu Ka. radiation, except those for iron-bearing substances. 

Recently, the research laboratories of the microchip producer AMD began to use TERS for characterizing patterned silicon surfaces. Metallized AFM tips that have been prepared by sputter deposition of thin Ag films onto quartz tips and sharpened by focused ion beam (FIB) miUmg were used. With a top-illumination set-up, line profiles of patterned samples were recorded and the influence of laser deflection at the tip and laser heating on silicon stress measurements were studied [44-46].

As described above, it vras found that CFM, by mapping the friction and the adhesive force with FFM and PFM-AFM, respectively, is useful for the patterned sample of the oxidized Si wafer partially covered with polymerized OTS monolayer domains. Similar measurements were also carried out using a COOH tip. In both images of FFM and PFM-AFM, the much higher contrast was observed between these two domains using this hydrophilic... 

To develop a new method by which we can study the mixing of two components in each domain in the patterned surfaces, we studied CFM of patterned surfaces prepared by fi-CP methods. Figure 5 shows a comparison between the patterned samples prepared by two different fi-CP methods, that is, the wet-inking and the contact-inking methods [57]. All adhesive force maps in Fig. 5 were observed in a 0.1 mM NaFICOs aqueous solution using a CH3 tip on three samples.
