Experimental observations of the thermal stability of high-k gate dielectric materials on silicon
TL;DR: In this paper, high-k dielectric materials including zirconium oxide and hafnium oxide produced by atomic layer deposition have been evaluated for thermal stability using analyses derived from X-ray diffraction (XRD), Xray reflectometry (XRR), medium energy ion spectroscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), tunneling atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopes, Auger electron spectroscope and secondary ion mass spectrography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hidden Markov Model Analysis of Multichromophore Photobleaching
TL;DR: The Bayes information criterion allows for unsupervised analysis of the data to determine the number of fluorescent subunits involved in the fluorescence intermittency of the 6-carboxy-tetramethylrhodamine labels by counting the discrete steps in fluorescence intensity, and determines information-theoretical limits.

Protein Free Energy Landscapes Remodeled by Ligand Binding
Troy C. Messina,David S. Talaga +1 more
TL;DR: The thermodynamics of conformational equilibrium distributions of GGBP are reported on, indicating that the protein continuously fluctuates about its conformational state space via thermally driven state transitions; glucose biases the populations by reorganizing the free energy profile.
