Due to the mostly vertical delivery of reactive ions, reactive-ion etching can produce very anisotropic etch profiles, which contrast with the typically isotropic profiles of wet chemical etching.

The nucleus provides a very short range, isotropic potential varying randomly from isotope to isotope, making it possible to tune the nuclear scattering contrast to suit the experiment.

The WLC model envisions an isotropic rod that is continuously flexible ; this is in contrast to the freely-jointed chain model that is flexible only between discrete segments.

Carnivory was a natural transition from insectivory for medium and large tetrapods, requiring minimal adaptation ( in contrast, a complex set of adaptations was necessary for feeding on highly fibrous plant materials ).

By contrast, for higher frequency radiations at ultraviolet frequencies and above ( i. e., X-rays and gamma rays ) the damage to chemical materials and living cells by EMR is far larger than that done by simple heating, due to the ability of single photons in such high frequency EMR to damage individual molecules chemically.

Sections of biological specimens, organic polymers and similar materials may require special ` staining ' with heavy atom labels in order to achieve the required image contrast.

* Staining – uses heavy metals such as lead, uranium or tungsten to scatter imaging electrons and thus give contrast between different structures, since many ( especially biological ) materials are nearly " transparent " to electrons ( weak phase objects ).

Samples of hydrated materials, including almost all biological specimens have to be prepared in various ways to stabilize them, reduce their thickness ( ultrathin sectioning ) and increase their electron optical contrast ( staining ).

In contrast, polycrystalline materials do not in general transmit visible light.

Iodine's relatively high atomic number, low toxicity, and ease of attachment to organic compounds have made it a part of many X-ray contrast materials in modern medicine.

Bradley's tale, for example, takes a feminist approach to Arthur and his legend, in contrast to the narratives of Arthur found in medieval materials, and American authors often rework the story of Arthur to be more consistent with values such as equality and democracy.

In contrast to many inorganic materials, organic compounds typically melt and many boil.

In contrast with this behavior, diamagnetic materials are repelled by magnetic fields.

Radiometric thermometry, in contrast, can be only very slightly dependent on the constitutive relations of materials.

In contrast, a complex set of adaptations was necessary for feeding on highly fibrous plant materials ).

However it is more common in aftermarket that visual aesthetics take on a more significant role in design than other types of sub drivers, including high contrast paint schemes, grill covers, translucent or refractive materials.

Sp²-hybridized carbon structures that – in contrast to sp³-hybridized carbon in diamond – arrange in planar sheets (" graphene " sheets ) are sometimes also included in the class of diamondoid materials for nanotechnology, e. g., graphite, carbon nanotubes consisting of sheets of carbon atoms rolled into tubes, spherical buckyballs and other graphene structures.

This is in contrast to many forms of sustainable agriculture such as permaculture or extensive agriculture, which involve a relatively low input of materials and labour, relative to the area of land farmed, and which focus on maintaining long-term ecological health of farmland, so that it can be farmed indefinitely.

In contrast, " bound current " arises in the context of bulk materials that can be magnetized and / or polarized.

During this period, in contrast to the near-universal marketing technique of introducing innovations on the expensive side of the marketplace and relying on consumer demand to emulate early adopters along with economy of scale to bring them into the mass market, Shimano and SunTour ( to a lesser extent ) introduced new technologies at the lowest end of the bicycle market, using lower cost and often heavier and less durable materials and techniques, only moving them further upmarket if they established themselves in the lower market segments.

Also a negative CTE is possible, which means, in contrast to most materials when heated up, such a glass-ceramic contracts.

Czechoslovak imports from the Soviet Union, by contrast, consisted primarily of raw materials and energy-related items ; petroleum and petroleum products accounted for almost 43 % of import value, and natural gas and electricity totaled 18 %.

During WWII, in contrast to the Axis Forces which suffered severe shortages of gasoline and artificial rubber, the Allied Forces were supplied with plentiful supplies of the materials.

The distinctive look of Michael Graves ' Portland Building, with its use of a variety of surface materials and colors, small windows, and inclusion of prominent decorative flourishes, was in stark contrast to the architectural style most commonly used for large office buildings at the time, and made the building an icon of postmodern architecture.

In contrast, traditional capacitors are based on dielectric materials.

By contrast, previous generations of high school and even college students were only expected to participate in, rather than design science experiments from scratch, complete with a list of materials.

The sequence may involve a sharp contrast: for example, a quiet meditative sway of the body succeeded by a violent leap ; ;

When Heidegger and Sartre speak of a contrast between being and existence, they may be right, I don't know, but their language is too philosophical for me.

A true university, like most successful marriages, is a unity of diversities Without forcing all components into a single pattern, the preparation of a master plan is an opportunity to consider interrelation of knowledge at its highest level, which a university -- in contrast to a multiversity -- should stand for.

Even when they are finished, however, the contrast will remain, for Istanbul is the only city in the world that is built upon two continents.

In contrast, 20 of the 21 lines in the Completion Profile ( excluding center 5 for boys and 4 for girls ) are bunched and extend over a much shorter period, approximately 30 months for boys and 40 months for girls.

In contrast, for the girl the epiphysis was slightly advanced at Onset and delayed at Completion.

In contrast to this voluntary-control explanation for nonreactivity given by the Kohnstamm-positive subjects, the Kohnstamm-negative subjects offered an involuntary-control hypothesis to explain nonreactivity.

But the use of stress in comparison and contrast, for example, can undermine distinctions such as these.

Their experience is quite in contrast with that of children of upper- and upper-middle-class native-born parents, who are more likely to regard education as good for its own sake and to discount the vocational emphases in the curriculum.

In contrast, the dynamic program produces this policy and a whole family of policies for any smaller number of stages.

But there was a contrast even more decisive than a hunger for fact between the Trial in Jerusalem and those in Moscow and New York.

There was considerable contrast between this Mulligan performance and that of Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers, who are able to generate a tremendous sound for such a small group.

The Declaration's emphasis on freedom and equality for all, in contrast to the Constitution's tolerance of slavery, shifted the debate.

By contrast, the cursive developed out of the Nabataean alphabet in the same period soon became the standard for writing Arabic, evolving into the Arabic alphabet as it stood by the time of the early spread of Islam.

In contrast to the elaborate stowage procedures for earlier anchors, stockless anchors are simply hauled up until they rest with the shank inside the hawsepipes, and the flukes against the hull ( or inside a recess in the hull ).

In contrast, free expansion is an isothermal process for an ideal gas.

In contrast, the Danes preferred to choose easy targets, mapping cautious forays designed to avoid risking all their accumulated plunder with high-stake attacks for more.

In contrast to romantic theorists Sircello argued for the objectivity of beauty and formulated a theory of love on that basis.

Don Chisciotte was a mix of ballet and opera buffa, and the lead female roles in L ' amore innocente were designed to contrast and highlight the different traditions of operatic writing for soprano, even borrowing stylistic flourishes from opera-seria in the use of coloratura in what was a short pastoral comedy more in keeping with a Roman Intermezzo.
