Synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements of the FCC/FCT phase transformation in PtMnCr pinning layers (2001)
Journal Article
Holloway, L., Laidler, H., Hughes, T., Telling, N., Linville, E., Mao, S., & Kief, M. (2002). Synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements of the FCC/FCT phase transformation in PtMnCr pinning layers. Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, 242-245, 1112-1114. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0304-8853%2801%2901120-9

We examine the change in structure of the pinning layer of PtMnCr/NiFe bilayers in the as-deposited state and upon annealing, using synchrotron radiation. The X-ray measurements show that the degree of transformation of the FCC phase of PtMnCr to the...

Prostate cancer risk: associations with ultraviolet radiation, tyrosinase and melanocortin-1 receptor genotypes (2001)
Journal Article
Luscombe, C. J., French, M. E., Liu, S., Saxby, M. F., Jones, P. W., Fryer, A. A., & Strange, R. C. (2001). Prostate cancer risk: associations with ultraviolet radiation, tyrosinase and melanocortin-1 receptor genotypes. British journal of cancer, 85, 1504 - 1509. https://doi.org/10.1054/bjoc.2001.2097

Exposure to ultraviolet radiation may reduce prostate cancer risk, suggesting that polymorphism in genes that mediate host pigmentation will be associated with susceptibility to this cancer. We studied 210 prostate cancer cases and 155 controls to de... Read More about Prostate cancer risk: associations with ultraviolet radiation, tyrosinase and melanocortin-1 receptor genotypes.

Role of crystallographic structure on magnetization reversal of (101̄0) and (112̄0) textured thin film media (2001)
Journal Article
Holloway, L., Laidler, H., Telling, N. D., & Wu, S. Z. (2001). Role of crystallographic structure on magnetization reversal of (101̄0) and (112̄0) textured thin film media. Journal of Applied Physics, 90(8), 4056-4062. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.1400101

In this study we examine the role of crystallographic structure on the magnetization reversal of two CoCrPtTa thin films grown on different underlayers which provide either a [112̄0] or a [101̄0] preferred orientation. We report synchrotron x-ray mea... Read More about Role of crystallographic structure on magnetization reversal of (101̄0) and (112̄0) textured thin film media.

Preparation of short-period Fe-N magnetic multilayers using an atomic nitrogen beam (2001)

Magnetic multilayers containing Fe-N layers with bilayer periods of between /spl sim/15-84 /spl Aring/ and sharp interfaces, are successfully grown using an atomic (free radical) nitrogen beam. The phase composition and microstructure is found to be... Read More about Preparation of short-period Fe-N magnetic multilayers using an atomic nitrogen beam.

Simultaneous identification of GSTP1 Ile105-->Val105 and Ala114-->Val114 substitutions using an amplification refractory mutation system polymerase chain reaction assay: studies in patients with asthma (2001)
Journal Article
Hemmingsen, A., Fryer, A. A., Hepple, M., Strange, R. C., & Spiteri, M. A. (2001). Simultaneous identification of GSTP1 Ile105-->Val105 and Ala114-->Val114 substitutions using an amplification refractory mutation system polymerase chain reaction assay: studies in patients with asthma. Respiratory Research, 255 -260. https://doi.org/10.1186/rr64

BACKGROUND
The glutathione S-transferase (GST) enzyme GSTP1 utilizes byproducts of oxidative stress. We previously showed that alleles of GSTP1 that encode the Ile105-->Val105 substitution are associated with the asthma phenotypes of atopy and bronc...

Interdiffusion and intermixing have been examined in Fe/Si trilayers prepared with ions of different energies, using the direct ion beam deposition technique. Isotope-pure layers were deposited and spin-polarized neutron reflectivity used to determin... Read More about Interdiffusion in direct ion beam deposited isotopic Fe/Si trilayers.

Fe–N alloy films prepared using a nitrogen atom source (2001)
