Village of the Small Houses
In 1959, just one step ahead of the law, Ian Ferguson’s parents left the sophisticated big-city life of Edmonton and ended up in Fort Vermilion, 846 km due north. It was meant to be a temporary move. Ian’s father lasted ten years before he made his escape; his mother remained until recently. Fort Vermilion, once a fur-trapping frontier town, was predominantly aboriginal, the third poorest community in Canada. Like their neighbours, the Ferguson kids—Ian and his six brothers and sisters—grew up without indoor plumbing, central heating or electricity. Living closer to the Arctic Circle than to the American border, without the influences of television or radio, Canada was a dream to the...
Trudeau on Trudeau
The bestselling satirical book that takes you on a hilarious journey through the mind of the part-time snowboarding instructor, drama teacher, and “costume” enthusiast who is the prime minister of Canada. Trudeau on Trudeau is a book like no other. It’s a collection of real words spoken by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that paints a portrait of a man who hasn’t quite gotten the hang of leading Canada. Included are familiar quotes, such as “The budget will balance itself”; the infamous “You are a piece of sh*t”; and the plain pathetic “We will grow the economy from the heart out”; and many, many more. Full of real photos of Justin taking selfies, quizzes, a photo album of Justin’s taxpayer-funded vacation in India, and laugh-out-loud commentary, Trudeau on Trudeau is sure to answer the question, “What happens when a part-time snowboarder and drama teacher becomes prime minister of Canada?” Trudeau on Trudeau is a must-have, not just for political junkies, but for any and all Canadians who care about the future of our country.
Mokumé Gane
Mokume Gane is an old Japanese technique for creating patterned andcoloured finishes. Modern jewellers and silversmiths have adaptedand modified this technique to produce finishes for their work. In this book, Ian Ferguson discusses the history, techniques andmaterials connected with Mokume Gane.
Silicon Carbide
This book will provide useful information to material growers and evaluators, device design and processing engineers as well as potential users of SiC technologies. This book will help identify remaining challenging issues to stimulate further investigation to realize the full potential of wide band gap SiC for optoelectronic and microelectronic applications.
Handbook of Zinc Oxide and Related Materials
Through their application in energy-efficient and environmentally friendly devices, zinc oxide (ZnO) and related classes of wide gap semiconductors, including GaN and SiC, are revolutionizing numerous areas, from lighting, energy conversion, photovoltaics, and communications to biotechnology, imaging, and medicine. With an emphasis on engineering a
Iii-nitride Materials, Devices And Nano-structures
Group III-Nitrides semiconductor materials, including GaN, InN, AlN, InGaN, AlGaN and AlInGaN, i.e. (Al, In, Ga)N, are excellent semiconductors, covering the spectral range from deep ultraviolet (DUV) to UV, visible and infrared, with unique properties very suitable for modern electronic and optoelectronic applications. Remarkable breakthroughs have been achieved in recent years for research and development (R&D) in these materials and devices, such as high-power and high brightness UV-blue-green-white light emitting diodes (LEDs), UV-blue-green laser diodes (LDs), photo-detectors and various optoelectronics and electronics devices and applications.The Nobel Prize in Physics 2014 was awarded...
Frontiers of Thin Film Technology
Frontiers of Thin Film Technology, Volume 28 focuses on recent developments in those technologies that are critical to the successful growth, fabrication, and characterization of newly emerging solid-state thin film device architectures. Volume 28 is a condensed sampler of the Handbook for use by professional scientists, engineers, and students involved in the materials, design, fabrication, diagnostics, and measurement aspects of these important new devices.
Handbook of Silicon Carbide Materials and Devices
This handbook presents the key properties of silicon carbide (SiC), the power semiconductor for the 21st century. It describes related technologies, reports the rapid developments and achievements in recent years, and discusses the remaining challenging issues in the field. The book consists of 15 chapters, beginning with a chapter by Professor W. J. Choyke, the leading authority in the field, and is divided into four sections. The topics include presolar SiC history, vapor-liquid-solid growth, spectroscopic investigations of 3C-SiC/Si, developments and challenges in the 21st century; CVD principles and techniques, homoepitaxy of 4H-SiC, cubic SiC grown on 4H-SiC, SiC thermal oxidation processes and MOS interface, Raman scattering, NIR luminescent studies, Mueller matrix ellipsometry, Raman microscopy and imaging, 4H-SiC UV photodiodes, radiation detectors, and short wavelength and synchrotron X-ray diffraction. This comprehensive work provides a strong contribution to the engineering, materials, and basic science knowledge of the 21st century, and will be of interest to material growers, designers, engineers, scientists, postgraduate students, and entrepreneurs.
Iii-nitride Devices And Nanoengineering
Devices, nanoscale science and technologies based on GaN and related materials, have achieved great developments in recent years. New GaN-based devices such as UV detectors, fast p-HEMT and microwave devices are developed far more superior than other semiconductor materials-based devices.Written by renowned experts, the review chapters in this book cover the most important topics and achievements in recent years, discuss progress made by different groups, and suggest future directions. Each chapter also describes the basis of theory and experiment.This book is an invaluable resource for device design and processing engineers, material growers and evaluators, postgraduates and scientists as well as newcomers in the GaN field./a
Thermal Management for LED Applications
Thermal Management for LED Applications provides state-of-the-art information on recent developments in thermal management as it relates to LEDs and LED-based systems and their applications. Coverage begins with an overview of the basics of thermal management including thermal design for LEDs, thermal characterization and testing of LEDs, and issues related to failure mechanisms and reliability and performance in harsh environments. Advances and recent developments in thermal management round out the book with discussions on advances in TIMs (thermal interface materials) for LED applications, advances in forced convection cooling of LEDs, and advances in heat sinks for LED assemblies.
