Acoustic Waves
Author: Marco G. Beghi
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 9533075724
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 670
Book Description
The concept of acoustic wave is a pervasive one, which emerges in any type of medium, from solids to plasmas, at length and time scales ranging from sub-micrometric layers in microdevices to seismic waves in the Sun's interior. This book presents several aspects of the active research ongoing in this field. Theoretical efforts are leading to a deeper understanding of phenomena, also in complicated environments like the solar surface boundary. Acoustic waves are a flexible probe to investigate the properties of very different systems, from thin inorganic layers to ripening cheese to biological systems. Acoustic waves are also a tool to manipulate matter, from the delicate evaporation of biomolecules to be analysed, to the phase transitions induced by intense shock waves. And a whole class of widespread microdevices, including filters and sensors, is based on the behaviour of acoustic waves propagating in thin layers. The search for better performances is driving to new materials for these devices, and to more refined tools for their analysis.

Growth and Optical Properties of Wide-Gap II–VI Low-Dimensional Semiconductors
Author: T.C. McGill
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 146845661X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
This volume contains the Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on "Growth and Optical Properties of Wide Gap II-VI Low Dimensional Semiconductors", held from 2 - 6 August 1988 in Regensburg, Federal Republic of Germany, under the auspices of the NATO International Scientific Exchange Programme. Semiconducting compounds formed by combining an element from column II of the periodic table with an element from column VI (so called II-VI Semiconductors) have long promised many optoelectronic devices operating in the visible region of the spectrum. However, these materials have encountered numerous problems including: large number of defects and difficulties in obtaining p- and n-type doping. Advances in new methods of material preparation may hold the key to unlocking the unfulfilled promises. During the workshop a full session was taken up covering the prospects for wide-gap II-VI Semiconductor devices, particularly light emitting ones. The growth of bulk materials was reviewed with the view of considering II-VI substrates for the novel epitaxial techniques such as MOCVD, MBE, ALE, MOMBE and ALE-MBE. The controlled introduction of impurities during non-equilibrium growth to provide control of the doping type and conductivity was emphasized.

Nanofabrication
Author: Maria Stepanova
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3709104246
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Intended to update scientists and engineers on the current state of the art in a variety of key techniques used extensively in the fabrication of structures at the nanoscale. The present work covers the essential technologies for creating sub 25 nm features lithographically, depositing layers with nanometer control, and etching patterns and structures at the nanoscale. A distinguishing feature of this book is a focus not on extension of microelectronics fabrication, but rather on techniques applicable for building NEMS, biosensors, nanomaterials, photonic crystals, and other novel devices and structures that will revolutionize society in the coming years.

X-ray Tomography in Material Science
Author: José Baruchel
Publisher: Hermes Science Publications
ISBN:
Category : Diagnostic imaging
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
How materials behave under different conditions is key information for structural and mechanical engineers. The authors of this book show how X-Ray tomography can be used as a very powerful tool to investigate the microstructure and behavior of structural materials such as A1 and Ti based metal matrix composites, aluminum alloys and foams. The authors describe the technique and introduce the algorithms used for the reconstruction of the 3-D numerical images and illustrate the use of both synchrotron and X-Ray sources.

Holistic Qumran
Author: Jan Gunneweg
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004190759
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
Much of the previous sixty years (1949-2009) have been devoted to the cleaning of the Dead Sea scrolls, their piecing together and their translation. The present volume is a scientific study of the various archaeological relics that have been found in the three units at Qumran: The settlement, the caves with the scrolls and the cemetery. With the aid of neutron activation of Qumran's pottery we established its human relations with neighboring sites, by radio carbon dating we placed the relics in their time frame, by DNA we study the provenance of the animal hides that served the scribes as parchment. The ink is studied for examining the degradation processes that started when the scrolls were written, 2000-2300 years ago.
