Low-Energy Electron Microscope
Low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) is a projection-type microscopy technique collecting low-energy (typically 1–100 eV) electrons backscattered from the samples for imaging [1].

Open AccessQuantum Hall effect in epitaxial graphene with permanent magnets
We have observed the well-kown quantum Hall effect (QHE) in epitaxial graphene grown on silicon carbide (SiC) by using, for the first time, only commercial NdFeB permanent magnets at low temperature. The relat...

Open AccessShot noise generated by graphene p–n junctions in the quantum Hall effect regime
Graphene offers a unique system to investigate transport of Dirac Fermions at p–n junctions. In a magnetic field, combination of quantum Hall physics and the characteristic transport across p–n junctions leads to...

Quantum Faraday and Kerr rotations in graphene
Graphene, a monolayer sheet of carbon atoms, exhibits intriguing electronic properties that arise from its massless Dirac dispersion of electrons. A striking example is the half-integer quantum Hall effect, wh...

Open AccessPlasmon transport in graphene investigated by time-resolved electrical measurements
Plasmons, which are collective charge oscillations, could provide a means of confining electromagnetic field to nanoscale structures. Recently, plasmonics using graphene have attracted interest, particularly b...

VLS Growth of III-V Semiconductor Nanowires on Graphene Layers
GaP, GaAs, and InP nanowires were grown on graphitic layers by the vapor-liquid-solid method in a metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy chamber. On graphene/SiC(0001), Au particles as catalyst were formed at the st...

Dynamics of the silicon (111) surface phase transition
The manner in which phase transformations occur in solids determines important structural and physical properties of many materials. The main problem in characterizing the kinetic processes that occur during p...

Self-Organization of Steps and Domain Boundaries of 7×7 Reconstruction on Si(111)
We describe three different aspects of the self-organization of steps and domain boundaries of a 7×7 reconstruction on SI(111) surfaces. The first is the formation of a triangular-tiled pattern of “1×1’ and 7×...

Step Bunching during SiGe Growth on Vicinal Si(111) Surfaces
We investigate step bunching during SiGe growth on vicinal Si(111) surfaces. Step bunching occurs irrespective of the misorientation angle and direction of the vicinal surface, the growth temperature, and the ...

The development of a method for integration between different types of simulators
A manufacturing system simulator plays an important role in designing new systems. However, as simulators depend on particular usage, the modeling method of each simulator is different. Therefore simulation us...

Vaccine effect of granulocyte–macrophage colony-stimulating factor or CD80 gene-transduced murine hematopoietic tumor cells and their cooperative enhancement of antitumor immunity
To develop immunogene therapy targeting minimal residual hematopoietic tumor cells in patients, we transduced murine GM-CSF or CD80 gene into murine WEHI 3B myelomonocytic leukemia and EL-4 thymic lymphoma cel...

Nucleotide sequence of the capsid protein gene of papaya leaf-distortion mosaic potyvirus
The DNA complementary to the 3′-terminal 1 404 nucleotides [excluding the poly(A) tail] of papaya leaf-distortion mosaic potyvirus (PLDMV) RNA was cloned and sequenced. The sequence starts within a long open r...

Periodic Arrangement of Ge Islands on SI(111)
We describe periodic arrangements of Ge islands grown on Si(111) using Ge deposition at room temperature and post-deposit annealing. A mesh pattern of relaxed Ge islands is obtained under conditions of a Ge th...

MRI visualization of complete bilateral optic nerve involvement by pituitary adenoma: a case report
With large pituitary adenomas, the optic nerves and chiasm usually lie on the tumour capsule and are displaced superiorly. We report a large invasive pituitary adenoma, with complete involvement of both optic ...

Virus-like flexuous rods associated with pear vein yellows
Pear vein yellows affectedPyrus communis L. leaves were examined with light and electron microscopes. Virus-like flexuous rods were observed in leaf dip preparations. Some rods were 20 nm in diameter and 700–800 ...
