Formation of two-dimensional weak localization in conducting Langmuir-Blodgett films
We report the magnetotransport properties up to 7 T in the organic highly
conducting Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films formed by a molecular association of the
electroactive donor molecule bis(ethylendioxy)tetrathiafulvalene (BEDO-TTF) and
stearic acid CH(CH)COOH. We show the logarithmic decrease of dc
conductivity and the negative transverse magnetoresistance at low temperature.
They are interpreted in the weak localization of two-dimensional (2D)
electronic system based on the homogeneous conducting layer with the molecular
size thickness of BEDO-TTF. The electronic length with phase memory is given at
the mesoscopic scale, which provides for the first time evidence of the 2D
coherent charge transport in the conducting LB films.Comment: 5 pages, 1 Table and 5 figure
The Naming of Names: Guidelines for Gene Nomenclature in Marchantia.
While Marchantia polymorpha has been utilized as a model system to investigate fundamental biological questions for over almost two centuries, there is renewed interest in M. polymorpha as a model genetic organism in the genomics era. Here we outline community guidelines for M. polymorpha gene and transgene nomenclature, and we anticipate that these guidelines will promote consistency and reduce both redundancy and confusion in the scientific literature
The McGill Pain Questionnaire - Japanese Version, Reconsidered: Confirming the Reliability and Validity
BACKGROUND: The McGill Pain Questionnaire (MPQ) is one of the most widely used instruments in the world to evaluate patients with chronic pain. However, differences in languages and cultural backgrounds have hindered its standardization in Japan
