51Polyester — For the 1981 motion picture, see Polyester (film). SEM picture of a bend in a high surface area polyester fiber with a seven lobed cross section …
52Micellar cubic — A micellar cubic phase is a lyotropic liquid crystal phase formed when the concentration of micelles dispersed in a solvent (usually water) is sufficiently high that they are forced to pack into a structure having long ranged positional… …
53Cuneane — (C8H8, Pentacyclo[3.3.0.0 2,4.03,7.06,8]octane) is a saturated hydrocarbon.[1] Its name is derived from the Latin “cuneus”, meaning a wedge.[2] Cuneane may be produced from cubane by metal ion catalyzed σ bond rearrangement.[3][4] Similar… …
54Maxwell–Wagner–Sillars polarization — In dielectric spectroscopy, large frequency dependent contributions to the dielectric response, especially at low frequencies, may come from build ups of charge. This, so called Maxwell Wagner Sillars polarization (or often just Maxwell Wagner… …

56Lemelson-MIT Prize — The $500,000 Lemelson MIT Prize, presented by the Lemelson MIT Program (endowed in 1994 by Jerome H. Lemelson, and administered through the Massachusetts Institute of Technology) is awarded yearly to inventors from the United States for… …
57Lipid raft — organisation, region (1) is standard lipid bilayer, while region (2) is a lipid raft. The plasma membrane of cells is made of a combination of glycosphingolipids and protein receptors organized in glycolipoprotein microdomains termed lipid… …
58Olaf Karthaus — (born 1963 in Koblenz) is a German polymer chemist and Professor at the Chitose Institute of Science and Technology in Chitose, Hokkaidō, Japan, researching polymer chemistry, thin films, photonics, and nanotechnology. Karthaus received a PhD… …
59Conoscopy — (from Ancient Greek κῶνος (konos) cone, spinning top, pine cone and σκοπέω (skopeo) examine, inspect, look to or into, consider ) is an optical technique to make observations of a transparent specimen in a cone of converging rays of light. The… …
60Lipid microdomain — Lipid microdomains are formed when lipids undergo lateral phase separations yielding stable coexisting lamellar domains. These phase separations can be induced by changes in temperature, pressure, ionic strength or by the addition of divalent… …
