annealing

The joining-up of complementary single strands of DNA that have been separated by heat, or the joining of parts of separate strands that have complementary base sequences, to form a double helix.

To derive the annealing conditions for this study, PDO specimens were first subjected to a full DSC cycle including heating up to 130[degrees]C to eliminate prior heat history followed by quenching to 20[degrees]C at 20[degrees]C/min.
In addition to endeavoring to realize a quantum annealing machine through superconducting parametron device development, three-dimensional integration technology, and signal reading/control as well as theoretical studies and simulations supporting them, the four participating organizations will work in close coordination with those charged with the task of developing software infrastructure for application and software layers in this project commissioned by NEDO (i.e., Research and Development of Common Software Platform for Ising Machines; representative entity: Waseda University) to achieve mutual optimization and bring to fruition the strong unification of both sides.
With the new annealing furnace, Shihang strictly controls most physical and chemical properties of copper-nickel pipes.
The oxygen contents of KD-S SiC fibres after annealing under simulated atmosphere and in dry air, respectively, were presented in Figure 2(a).
The possibility of continuous current regulation is utilized for the newly developed annealing algorithm, which controls the temperature of heating elements in accordance with the requested values.
Ex situ or in situ annealing at higher C[O.sub.2] partial pressure was needed for film crystallization.
The same procedure was carried out on the annealed samples ending in the same outcome: within the detection limits of the instrument, no clusters could be detected even after high-temperature UHV annealing. Figure 1(b) shows an expanded view of the predominant ITO (222) peak and that of the ITO (400) peak for the as-deposited and two other films annealed at different temperatures.
We observed that without annealing thin film shows the typical metallic nature and shows high conducting without any junction effect.
All the devices were fabricated by the same procedures except for the different annealing temperatures.
