English translation of Fizika i tekhnika poluprovodnikov; covers semiconductor research in countries of the Former Soviet Union. Topics include semiconductor theory, transport phenomena in semiconductors, optics, magneto-optics, and electro-optics of semiconductors, semiconductor lasers, and semiconductor surface physics. Includes book reviews.
While group IV or III-V based device technologies have reached their technical limitations (e.g., limited detection wavelength range or low power handling capability), wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductors which have band-gaps greater than 3 eV have gained significant attention in recent years as a key semiconductor material in high-performance optoelectronic and electronic devices. These WBG semiconductors have two definitive advantages for optoelectronic and electronic applications due to their large bandgap energy. WBG energy is suitable to absorb or emit ultraviolet (UV) light in optoelectronic devices. It also provides a higher electric breakdown field, which allows electronic devices to possess higher breakdown voltages. This Special Issue seeks research papers, short communications, and review articles that focus on novel synthesis, processing, designs, fabrication, and modeling of various WBG semiconductor power electronics and optoelectronic devices.
What is this book about? If you are developing databases for your own use, the process need not be complicated. But when you build databases for clients, many of whom may not be familiar with Access or comfortable with databases in general, you have a lot more work to do. Expert One-on-One Microsoft Access Application Development makes that process easier. In these pages, you discover how to set up tables and relationships to ensure that the database is properly normalized. Then you write VBA code to create the connective tissue that turns a bunch of tables, queries, forms, and reports into a complete and coherent application. You also find out about the important but often inadequately documented area of Automation code, which is used to communicate with other Office applications. Over years of working with Access, the author has created some add-ins to save time when developing applications. She shows you how to use them to create a main menu for an application, automatically apply a naming convention to database objects, and ensure a consistent and professional appearance of the application’s forms. This book helps you write VBA code that unites database components into an application that works. What does this book cover? Here's what you'll discover in this book: How to build integrated Access-based applications that support multiple clients and databases Tips for streamlining application creation Maintenance required throughout an application’s life cycle, including migrating data from legacy systems and upgrading Office How to use Automation code to exchange data among Office components and even some non-Office programs Ways to avoid glitches when building Access applications that work with Excel, Word, and Outlook Who is this book for? This book is for experienced Access users who are familiar with creating Access objects and writing VBA code, but who need help transitioning from competent users/programmers to full-fledged Access developers.
The verification of a prior factor analysis of communications, as a component of effective ASW helicopter performance, is described. Three of four previously isolated communications factors were found 'congruent' with factors which emerged from the present study. A course, emphasizing the employment of the verified factors (as well as one additional factor) was developed, administered, and evaluated. The results indicated that participants in the course were significantly superior to a control group from the point of view of several operational criteria. These results are interpreted to suggest the utility and power of the course. Suggestions for fuller implementation of the course are presented. (Author).
