The Sertoli cell tight junctional complexes have been shown to be the most important structural counterpart of the physiological blood-testis barrier. In freeze etch replicas they consist of extensive rows of intramembranous particles which are not only oriented parallel to one another, but to the myoid layer as well. Thus the occluding complex has both an internal and an overall orientation. However, this overall orientation to the myoid layer does not seem to be necessary to its barrier function. The 20 day old rat has extensive parallel tight junctions which are not oriented with respect to the myoid layer, and yet they are inpenetrable by lanthanum. The mechanism(s) for the control of Sertoli cell junction development and orientation has not been established, although such factors as the presence or absence of germ cells, and/or hormones, especially FSH have been implicated.

The prospect of technical applications has induced a lot of interest in the atomic structure of the GaAs on Si(100) interface and the defects in its vicinity which are often studied by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The interface structure is determined by the 4.1% lattice constant mismatch between GaAs and Si, the large difference between the thermal expansion coefficients and the polar/nonpolar nature of the GaAs on Si interface. The lattice constant mismatch is compensated by misfit dislocations which are characterized by a/2<110> Burgers vectors b which are oriented parallel or inclined on {111} planes with respect to the interface. Stacking faults are also frequently observed. They are terminated by partial dislocations with b = a/6<112> on {111} planes. In this report, the atomic structure of stair rod misfit dislocations is analysed which are located at the intersection line of two stacking faults at the interface.A very thin, discontinous film of GaAs has been grown by MBE on a Si(100) substrate. Fig.1.a. shows an interface section of a 27 nm wide GaAs island along [110] containing a stair rod dislocation. The image has been taken with a JEOL 2000EX with a spherical aberration constant Cs = 1 mm, a spread of focus Δz = 10 nm and an angle of beam convergence ϑ of 2 mrad.

Various inclusion bodies occur in vertebrate retinal photoreceptor cells. Most of them are membrane bound and associated with phagocytosis or they are age related residual bodies. We found an additional inclusion body in foveal cone cells of the baboon (Papio anubis) retina.The eyes of a 15 year old baboon were fixed by immersion in cacodylate buffered glutaraldehyde (2%)/formaldehyde (2%) as described in detail elsewhere . Pieces of retina from various locations, including the fovea, were embedded in epoxy resin such that radial or tangential sections could be cut.Spindle shaped inclusion bodies were found in the cytoplasm of only foveal cones. They were abundant in the inner segments, close to the external limiting membrane (Fig. 1). But they also occurred in the outer fibers, the perikarya, and the inner fibers (Henle’s fibers) of the cone cells. The bodies were between 0.5 and 2 μm long. Their central diameter was 0.2 to 0. 3 μm. They always were oriented parallel to the long axis of the cone cells. In longitudinal sections (Figs. 2,3) they seemed to have a fibrous skeleton that, in cross sections, turned out to consist of plate-like (Fig.4) and tubular profiles (Fig. 5).

Recent studies indicate that the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) aboard the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) satellite provides valuable information about ocean phytoplankton distributions. CALIOP’s attenuated backscatter coefficients, measured at 532 nm in receiver channels oriented parallel and perpendicular to the laser’s linear polarization plane, are significantly improved in the Version 4 data product. However, due to non-ideal instrument effects, a small fraction of the backscattered optical power polarized parallel to the receiver polarization reference plane is misdirected into the perpendicular channel, and vice versa. This effect, known as polarization crosstalk, typically causes the measured perpendicular signal to be higher than its true value and the measured parallel signal to be lower than its true value. Therefore, the ocean optical properties derived directly from CALIOP’s measured signals will be biased if the polarization crosstalk effect is not taken into account. This paper presents methods that can be used to estimate the CALIOP crosstalk effects from on-orbit measurements. The global ocean depolarization ratios calculated both before and after removing the crosstalk effects are compared. Using CALIOP crosstalk-corrected signals is highly recommended for all ocean subsurface studies.

The simultaneous measurement of two Bragg reflections by Bragg coherent X-ray diffraction is demonstrated on a twinned Au crystal, which was prepared by the solid-state dewetting of a 30 nm thin gold film on a sapphire substrate. The crystal was oriented on a goniometer so that two lattice planes fulfill the Bragg condition at the same time. The Au 111 and Au 200 Bragg peaks were measured simultaneously by scanning the energy of the incident X-ray beam and recording the diffraction patterns with two two-dimensional detectors. While the former Bragg reflection is not sensitive to the twin boundary, which is oriented parallel to the crystal–substrate interface, the latter reflection is only sensitive to one part of the crystal. The volume ratio between the two parts of the twinned crystal is about 1:9, which is also confirmed by Laue microdiffraction of the same crystal. The parallel measurement of multiple Bragg reflections is essential for future in situ and operando studies, which are so far limited to either a single Bragg reflection or several in series, to facilitate the precise monitoring of both the strain field and defects during the application of external stimuli.

The crystallographic orientations of echinoderm skeletal elements can supplement standard morphological comparisons in the exploration of echinoderm evolution. At a coarse scale, many echinoderms share a crystallographic pattern in whichcaxes radiate away from the axis of pentaradial symmetry. Within this common pattern, however,caxes of different taxa can differ dramatically in their degree of variability, angles of inclination, and relationships to the external morphology of skeletal elements. Crystallographic data reflect a variety of taxon-specific influences and therefore reveal different information in different taxa. In echinoids, orientations ofcaxes in coronal plates correlate well with high-level taxonomic groupings, whilecaxes of apical plates record modes of larval development. In blastoids,caxes of radial plates have a structural interpretation, with thecaxis oriented parallel to the orientation of the surface of the radial plate during its initial growth stages. In crinoids,caxes do not correlate with taxonomic group, plate morphology, or developmental sequence, but instead correlate with relative positions of skeletal elements on the calyx. Although their full potential has yet to be explored, the varied crystallographic patterns in echinoderms have been used to clarify skeletal structure, characterize developmental anomalies, and infer homologies of skeletal plates both within specimens and between groups. A axes are less constrained in their orientations thancaxes and offer less promise of revealing novel paleobiological information.

By using the polycarbonate membrane a template, mesoporous silica rods are fabricated on a silicon substrate in one pot. From scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, the creation of fibrous morphology is confirmed over the entire area. The diameter of the obtained rods is consistent with that of the template. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) images revealed that the tubular mesochannels are uniaxially oriented parallel to the longitudinal axis of the silica rods. The mesoporous titania rods with anatase crystalline frameworks are also fabricated.

Ti6Al4V alloy is promising biology material with outstanding properties of low density, high specific strength, and exceptional corrosion resistance. However, one of its disadvantages is the poor tribological property. In this paper Mo-N hard surface modification layers were formed on Ti6Al4V at 900°C substrate temperature by plasma reactive sputtering. The flux ratio N2/Ar is an important parameter and its influence on the composition, structure and hardness of the Mo-N layers is studied. The Mo-N layers are duplex layers, composed of diffusing layer and surface coating. The component of Mo and N elements in the diffusing layer changes gradually which can enhance the load-bearing capacity to the coating and ensure the durability of the coating. With the increase of the flux ratio N2/Ar, the content of N element in the Mo-N layers increases. The Mo-N layers were polycrystalline γ- Mo2N with (200) plane oriented parallel to the substrate surface. The surface hardness of the formed layers is in the range HK1330-1430. The hardness of the Mo-N layers increases with the increase of the flux ratio N2/Ar and the reason is that the content of N element in the Mo-N layers increases.
