In this paper, we report a method of fabricating silicon nano-wire based on thermal oxidation technique. In this method, we first fabricate a wider structure with traditional lithography, and then use a layer of silicon nitride as mask to oxidize silicon. At the same time, due to the lateral diffusion and oxidation of oxidant, silicon is consumed by oxidant and the width of the silicon structure will be reduced to nano range when we remove the silicon dioxide. The factors affecting the ratio of vertical and lateral oxidation, for example, the gentle slope caused by isotropic oxidation and the inhomogeneity of the sidewall of silicon nano-wire, are discussed at last. Our results should be useful in generating silicon–based nanospintronics devices with careful selection of the oxide parameters.

ABSTRACTThe localized laser-induced deposition of an insulator for silicon-based microelectronics seems to be an unsolved problem. In order to understand the limiting mechanism in the deposition, the formation kinetics of silicon, silicon oxide and silicon nitride using various laser wavelengths and gas mixtures have been studied Depending upon wavelength and laser-induced temperature, various chemical reactions are involved. In the presence of ammonia, the growth rate of silicon nitride dots was found to be lower than the corresponding silicon deposition rate, indicating that deposition starts with silane decomposition followed by nitridation of silicon. By evaluating the influence of the wavelengths, the existence of a photolytic aided reaction is detected in the presence of 2.4 eV photons. In the presence of oxygen molecules and under most experimental conditions, no deposition occurs. The formation of volatile intermediate compounds can explain the difficulty of locally depositing silicon dioxide.

Red pepper, as an ingredient of Kimchi, is an important horticultural crop in Korea, and capsaicinoid content is a major factor determining the pungent quality of red pepper. To clarify the factors affecting capsaicinoid content, 122 red pepper samples of 24 varieties were collected from 21 cultivation sites in Cheongyang area, South Korea, and their nordihydrocapsaicin (NDC), capsaicin (CAP), and dihydrocapsaicin (DHC) contents were evaluated by using an HPLC. The average content of NDC, CAP, and DHC were 4.8, 74.2, and 26.5 mg/100 g, respectively, and its relative composition ratios were slightly affected by variety or cultivation places. In most cultivation places, capsaicinoid contents showed significant dependence upon variety, in that cv. WangJangKum (225.5 mg/100 g) exhibited 6.2-fold higher total capsaicinoid contents when compared to cv. ChonHaTongIl (36.2 mg/100 g). Even the same cultivar (e.g., WangDaeGum) exhibited almost 2-fold variations according to cultivation places, indicating the dependence of capsaicinoid content of red peppers upon the cultivation sites. Analysis of variance revealed significant variety–cultivation place interactions in CAP, DHC, and total capsaicinoid contents, but not in NDC. This data suggests the necessity of more-careful selection of variety and cultivation place corresponding to the expected pungency of harvested red peppers.

We all feel the implications of the force of social media—for good and for ill—in our lives and in our professional world. At the time of this writing, Facebook continues with its struggle to “clean up its act” as more revelations surrounding breaches of trust and hacked user data surface in the news and various countries attempt to hold Facebook to account. Despite this, social media use continues to grow exponentially, and the potential for responsible, ethical, and transparent social media to transform the ways in which we interact with and learn from each other increase with it. As we wait to see what the future holds for social media in society, we are reminded once again that it is the careful selection of pedagogical tools such as social media, as well the guided awareness of the challenges and benefits of those tools, that remains constant, even as tools may change, disappear, or fall out of fashion.
