Download or read book Defects in Electronic Materials II Volume 442 written by Jürgen Michel and published by . This book was released on 1997-05-02 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pervasive role of defects in determining the thermal, mechanical, electrical, optical and magnetic properties of materials is significant as is the knowledge and operation of generation and control of defects in electronic materials. Developing novel semiconductor materials, however, requires new insights into the role of defects to achieve new properties. New experimental techniques must be developed to study defects in small structures. Research groups come together in this book from MRS to provide a vivid picture of the current problems, progress and methods in defect studies in electronic materials. Topics include new techniques in defect studies; processing induced defects, plasma-induced point defects; processing induced defects -defects and gate-oxide integrity; point defects and reaction; point defects and interactions in Si; impurity diffusion and hydrogen in Si; dislocations in group IV semiconductors; point defects and defect interactions in SiGe; point defects in III-V compounds; compensation and structural defects in III-V compounds and layers and structures.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This proceedings volume contains oral and poster contributions from a symposium on "Defects in Electronic Materials" at the combined meeting of the Materials Research Society (MRS) and the International Conference on Electronic Materials (ICEM) in December, 1996, in Boston. The volume comprises the areas of defects in group III-V, and wide bandgap semiconductors. The symposium was planned to represent the general field of defects in electronic materials, with a focus on issues that are currently widely discussed. The pervasive role of defects in determining the thermal, mechanical, electrical, optical and magnetic properties of materials is significant. The knowledge of generation and control of defects in electronic materials has contributed to the success of these materials. Developing novel semiconductor materials requires new insights into the role of defects to achieve new properties. New experimental techniques have to be developed to study defects in small structures, This proceedings volume provides a vivid picture of the current problems, progress and methods in defect studies in electronic materials. Of most interest were the sessions on new techniques in defect studies and on process-induced defects in Si and GaAs. Papers on new techniques addressed the issues of surface defects, defects in small dimensions and the detection of near-surface defects in Si. In process-induced defects, three areas received significant attention, Plasma processes in Si and GaAs produce defective layers. Many papers deal with the understanding of these defects. Grown-in defects are widely studied because of their deteriorating effect on the gate-oxide integrity (GOI). These defects were identified as octahedral voids in as-grown silicon. Another recurring issue is gettering of metallic impurities to prevent contamination during processing.

Download or read book Materials for Optical Limiting II Volume 479 written by Richard Lee Sutherland and published by . This book was released on 1997-12-30 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proliferation of lasers and systems employing lasers has brought with it the potential for adverse effects from these bright, coherent light sources. This includes the possibility of damage from pulsed lasers, as well as temporary blinding by continuous-waver lasers. With nearly every wavelength possible being emitted by these sources, there exists a need to develop optical limiters and tunable filters which can suppress undesired radiation of any wavelength. This book addresses a number of materials and devices which have the potential for meeting the challenge. The proceedings is divided into five parts. Parts I and II cover research in organic and inorganic materials primarily based on nonlinear absorption or phase transitions for optical limiting of pulsed lasers. Part III includes photo-refractive materials and liquid crystals which find primary applications in dynamic filters. Part IV covers various aspects of device and material characterization, including nonlinear beam propagation effects. Theoretical modelling of materials properties is the subject of Part V.

Download or read book Specimen Preparation for Transmission Electron Microscopy of Materials IV written by Ron M. Anderson and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successful transmission electron microscopy (TEM) experimentation depends on many things, one being specimen preparation. Whereas TEM samples of bulk metallic or ceramic materials can be prepared in a straightforward manner, the need to examine nonbulk and/or other classes of materials creates a need for more specialized preparation methods. This book from MRS, the fourth in a successful series, pioneers novel methods or ways of characterizing the specimen preparation process. Contributions to the book are tutorial in nature, and therefore somewhat longer than usual. Papers cover both general and materials-specific specimen preparation methods. Metallic, polymer, plastic, semiconducting, ceramic and magnetic materials as found in bulk, thin-film, dispersed and powdered forms are discussed.
