摘要:
A method for the determination of a free protein subunit of a quaternary protein in a sample, which comprises:(a) contacting a sample with a first immunological binding partner which is or will be bound to a carrier, wherein the first immunological binding partner binds epitopic determinants bindable only on the free protein subunit;(b) incubating the components of step (a) for a period of time and under conditions sufficient to form an immune complex between the free protein subunit, the first immunological binding partner, and the carrier;(c) separating the carrier of step (b) from the sample;(d) adding to the carrier of step (c), a detectably-labeled second immunological binding partner, wherein the second immunological binding partner binds epitopic determinants bindable on both the free protein subunit and the quaternary protein; and(e) determining the detectably-labeled second immunological binding partner in the carrier or in liquid phase.

This invention relates to a method of detecting and diagnosing neurological disease or dysfunction using antibodies against a neurological form of Pancreatic Thread Protein (nPTP). Specifically, this invention is directed to a method of diagnosing Alzheimer's Disease, Down's Syndrome, and other neurological diseases or dysfunctions by using monoclonal antibodies, combination of those monoclonal antibodies or nucleic acid probes, to detect nPTP. The invention also relates to a recombinant DNA molecule encoding PTP and to the substantially pure form of nPTP. The invention additionally relates to a method of diagnosing pancreatic disease using antibodies against Pancreatic Thread Protein.
摘要:
The invention is a method of depositing a layer of polycrystalline silicon on a silicon dioxide substrate until the layer of polycrystalline silicon is thick enough to support the deposition of germanium thereon, but while thin enough to substantially avoid the deleterious effects on the characteristics of semiconductor device structure that the deposition of polycrystalline silicon would otherwise potentially cause. The polycrystalline layer is then exposed to a germanium containing gas at a temperature below the temperature at which germanium will deposit on silicon dioxide alone while preventing native growth of silicon dioxide on the polycrystalline silicon layer, and for a time sufficient for a desired thickness of polycrystalline germanium to be deposited on the layer of polycrystalline silicon.

A method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a strained first semiconductor layer on an insulating layer that is between second semiconductor layers. The strained first semiconductor layer may be epitaxially grown from the second semiconductor layers to extend onto the insulating layer between the second semiconductor layers. The second semiconductor layers have a lattice constant that is different than that of the first semiconductor layer, such that strain may be created in the first semiconductor layer. Related devices are also discussed.
摘要:
Methods of forming a nano-scale electronic and optoelectronic devices include forming a substrate having a semiconductor layer therein and a substrate insulating layer on the semiconductor layer. An etching template having a first array of non-photolithographically defined nano-channels extending therethrough, is formed on the substrate insulating layer. This etching template may comprise an anodized metal oxide, such as an anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) thin film. The substrate insulating layer is then selectively etched to define a second array of nano-channels therein. This selective etching step preferably uses the etching template as an etching mask to transfer the first array of nano-channels to the underlying substrate insulating layer, which may be thinner than the etching template. An array of semiconductor nano-pillars is then formed in the second array of nano-channels. The semiconductor nano-pillars in the array may have an average diameter in a range between about 8 nm and about 50 nm. The semiconductor nano-pillars are also preferably homoepitaxial or heteroepitaxial with the semiconductor layer.

摘要:
The invention is a method of selectively forming contacts on ultra shallow source and drain junctions. The method comprises forming a gate structure that defines a gate on a silicon substrate, portions of which are covered with a layer of silicon dioxide while the portions adjacent the gate form a silicon surface. The gate structure includes a surface material upon which germanium will not deposit at a temperature that is otherwise high enough to cause germanium to deposit from a germanium containing gas onto a silicon surface, but that is lower than the temperature at which germanium will deposit on the gate surface material. A source and drain are formed in the silicon substrate in the portions adjacent the gate by adding dopant atoms and in which the source and drain are separated by an active region of the silicon substrate defined by the gate structure. The substrate is then exposed to a germanium containing gas at a temperature high enough to cause the germanium to deposit from the germanium containing gas into the silicon surface but lower than the temperature at which the germanium will deposit on the gate structure surface material. The result is self-aligned germanium contacts to the source and the drain. The method can further comprise selectively depositing a metal on the germanium and annealing the deposit to form a germanide compound from the reaction between the deposited germanium and the deposited metal.
