Book Description
A novel non-contact multiaxial astigmatic detection system (ADS) is designed and developed using the astigmatism as the measuring principle for the translational displacement, the angle, and their variations of a measured surface simultaneously. An optical pickup unit (OPU) of a commercial digital versatile disk (DVD) read only memory (ROM) drive can be used directly as an optical path mechanism in the above mentioned ADS, which can measure the translational and angular displacements accurately and simultaneously. The total linear detection range and the maximum measurement bandwidth of the ADS are 6 mm and 80MHz, respectively. The resolution of the translational displacement measurement is in sub-angstrom scale. For an operating frequency of 700 kHz, the noise floors of the translational and angular signals are below 0.8 pm/Hz1/2 and 0.4 mrad/ Hz1/2, respectively. The ADS can monitor the translational and two orthogonal angular displacements of a micro fabricated cantilever in atomic force microscopy (AFM). All the three, contact non-contact and tapping, modes can resolve the single atomic steps of the graphite surface, which indicates that atomic resolution is achievable with the ADS. The thermal noise spectra of the AFM probe can be clearly measured as well. Furthermore, the accuracy of scanning probe microscopy (SPM) depends not only on the measurement system itself, but also by the accuracy of the signal processing, which further depends on the physical and geometrical characteristics of the probe. The structure of the ADS is compact and stable. Besides the measurements through AFM probes, the ADS can be operated in profilometer mode. The CD surface and the CCD microlens are measured by this mode. The maximum scanning speed can reach up to 3.84×106 mm/s theoretically, almost one million times faster than that of a commercial SPM system. The ADS has a great potential for future development, the expansibility and the accuracy can evolve with the performance of future OPU. From the DVD OPU to higher resolution one, such as the OPU of the Blu-ray drive or high- definition (HD-DVD), can be integrated into the ADS as well.

Foundations of Analog and Digital Electronic Circuits
Author: Anant Agarwal
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 008050681X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 1009
Book Description
Unlike books currently on the market, this book attempts to satisfy two goals: combine circuits and electronics into a single, unified treatment, and establish a strong connection with the contemporary world of digital systems. It will introduce a new way of looking not only at the treatment of circuits, but also at the treatment of introductory coursework in engineering in general. Using the concept of ''abstraction,'' the book attempts to form a bridge between the world of physics and the world of large computer systems. In particular, it attempts to unify electrical engineering and computer science as the art of creating and exploiting successive abstractions to manage the complexity of building useful electrical systems. Computer systems are simply one type of electrical systems.+Balances circuits theory with practical digital electronics applications.+Illustrates concepts with real devices.+Supports the popular circuits and electronics course on the MIT OpenCourse Ware from which professionals worldwide study this new approach.+Written by two educators well known for their innovative teaching and research and their collaboration with industry.+Focuses on contemporary MOS technology.

Book Description
The psychology classic—a detailed study of scientific theories of human nature and the possible ways in which human behavior can be predicted and controlled—from one of the most influential behaviorists of the twentieth century and the author of Walden Two. “This is an important book, exceptionally well written, and logically consistent with the basic premise of the unitary nature of science. Many students of society and culture would take violent issue with most of the things that Skinner has to say, but even those who disagree most will find this a stimulating book.” —Samuel M. Strong, The American Journal of Sociology “This is a remarkable book—remarkable in that it presents a strong, consistent, and all but exhaustive case for a natural science of human behavior…It ought to be…valuable for those whose preferences lie with, as well as those whose preferences stand against, a behavioristic approach to human activity.” —Harry Prosch, Ethics
