To date, most 3-D reconstructions of undecorated actin filaments have been obtained from actin filament paracrystal data (for refs, see 1,2). However, due to the fact that (a) the paracrystals may be several filament layers thick, and (b) adjacent filaments may sustantially interdigitate, these reconstructions may be subject to significant artifacts. None of these reconstructions has permitted unambiguous tracing or orientation of the actin subunits within the filament. Furthermore, measured values for the maximal filament diameter both determined by EM and by X-ray diffraction analysis, vary between 6 and 10 nm. Obviously, the apparent diameter of the actin filament revealed in the EM will critically depend on specimen preparation, since it is a rather flexible supramolecular assembly which can easily be bent or distorted. To resolve some of these ambiguities, we have explored specimen preparation conditions which may preserve single filaments sufficiently straight and helically ordered to be suitable for single filament 3-D reconstructions, possibly revealing molecular detail.

The acetic acid esters of 1-(4-methylphenylazo)naphthalen-2-ol 1 and 2-(4-methylphenylazo)-4-methylphenol 3 are prepared and characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies and 13C{1H}NMR spectroscopy; the position of the C(2)13C resonance for the ester is used to predict the position of resonant frequency of the equivalent carbon in the parent alcohols and hence, calculate the position of the azo-hydrazone equilibrium in these compounds.

Utilizing porous silicon as a reducing agent and a substrate, gold complex ions [AuCl4]- were reduced from aqueous solution to produce nanoparticles of gold upon the surface of porous silicon. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was utilized to study the morphology of the porous silicon layers and the deposits of gold nanoparticles. It is found that preparation conditions have a profound effect on the morphology of the deposits, especially on porous silicon prepared from a p-type wafer. The gold nanoparticles, varying from micrometric aggregates of clusters of the order of 10 nm, to a distribution of nearly spherical clusters of the order of 10 nm, to strings of ~10 nm were observed and compared to bulk gold metal using X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). These techniques confirm and complement the SEM findings. The potential for this reductive deposition technique is noted.Key words: gold nanostructures, reductive deposition, porous silicon, morphology, X-ray spectroscopy.

Abstract Based on the composition of Cr-doped solid waste, other oxides were added to adjust the composition to prepare glass-ceramics with on step composition, and the effect of heat treatment system (including temperature and holding time), chromium content, MnO and Fe2O3 doped on the crystallization and physical properties of glass-ceramics was studied. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, differential thermal analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the best treatment conditions are 1090 ℃ for 4h, and the amount of dissolved chromium reaches 5%. The main crystallization phase is diopside and anorthite. The hardness and chemical stability of the material were measured. The doping of MnO and Fe2O3 increases the crystallization activation energy of glass ceramics, and makes the crystal phase more uniform as the SEM results. This experiment provides a theoretical basis for the preparation of CMAS glass ceramics from chromium containing solid waste.

Abstract In order to clarify the reason of some discrepancies existing in literature, the zinc coordination in a Zn metaphosphate glass has been investigated by the complementary use of X-Ray Diffraction, Neutron Diffraction, Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Spectroscopy and X-Ray Anoma-lous Scattering. All the techniques indicate a tetrahedral coordination of O atoms around Zn :+ ions, the Zn-O distance being 1.94 ± 0.01 Å. The simultaneous modelling of all the experimental data by Reverse Monte Carlo technique demonstrated that this coordination is consistent with an extended model in which metal ions are interposed between phosphate chains. The importance of describing the preparation conditions of the glasses is stressed when structural results have to be compared.
