Substrate temperature and electron fluence effects on metallic films created by electron beam induced deposition

Using three different precursors [MeCpPtMe3, Pt(PF3)4, and W(CO)6], an ultra-high vacuum surface science approach has been used to identify and rationalize the effects of substrate temperature and electron fluence on the chemical composition and bonding in films created by electron beam induced deposition (EBID). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy...

The Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) Does Not Have a Ferroxidase Site in Its E2 Domain

The ubiquitous 24-meric iron-storage protein ferritin and multicopper oxidases such as ceruloplasmin or hephaestin catalyze oxidation of Fe(II) to Fe(III), using molecular oxygen as oxidant. The ferroxidase activity of these proteins is essential for cellular iron homeostasis. It has been reported that the amyloid precursor protein (APP) also...
