Show Abstract
A low-noise preamplifier to perform a derivative of photogenerated signals is proposed. The novel structure is based on an inductive feedback preamplifier which performs preamplification and a derivative of the photogenerated current in a single stage. A breadboard circuit implementation and noise measurements are presented. Comparative noise measurements show that the proposed architecture is competitive with the classical differentiator preamplifier © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

Show Abstract
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a widely used tool in chemistry and biochemistry. It is occasionally necessary to add small aliquots of solvents or reagents repeatedly into the NMR tube. Ordinarily this is accomplished only by ejecting the sample and carrying out the addition outside the probe. It would be preferable to add the aliquot directly into the sample. We have designed and implemented a delivery system to accomplish this. This apparatus is particularly applicable to a recent NMR titration method for measuring relative pK’s and to experiments where temperature must also be varied. This apparatus provides a safe, simple, and inexpensive method for repeated aliquot addition directly into the sample in the NMR probe. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

Show Abstract
The apparatus described uses polarized light to trace the rotation angle of an object. The result of the measurement does not depend on the distance between the object and the base surface within a wide range, and the resolution is better than 0.25° with the full range of 180°. There are no electrical contacts to the rotating object. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

Show Abstract
We present a nonswitching van der Pauw technique using two independent ac current sources and two lock-in amplifiers. This technique may be useful to measure the resistance of delicate samples that might be easily damaged by electric shocks induced from switching, and can be extended to measure the anisotropy of resistance. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
