  • The Real Las Vegas

    Life Beyond the Strip

    Edited by David Littlejohn ...
    What images come to mind when you think of Las Vegas? Mobsters and showgirls, magicians and tigers, multimillion-dollar poker games and prizefights; towering signboards that light up the night in front of ever more spectacular casino hotels. But real people live here, too--over a million today, two million tomorrow. Greater Las Vegas has long been the fastest growing metropolitan area in America. ... Read more

  • Electrical Properties of Graphite Nanoparticles in Silicone

    Flexible Oscillators and Electromechanical Sensing

    by Samuel David Littlejohn ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis examines a novel class of flexible electronic material with great potential for use in the construction of stretchable amplifiers and memory elements. Most remarkably the composite material produces spontaneous oscillations that increase in frequency when pressure is applied to it. In this way, the material mimics the excitatory response of pressure-sensing neurons in the human skin. ... Read more

  • Nucleation Theory and Growth of Nanostructures

    by Vladimir G. Dubrovskii ...
    Series series Chemistry and Material Science (R0)
    Semiconductor nanostructures such as nanowires are promising building blocks of future nanoelectronic, nanophotonic and nanosensing devices. Their physical properties are primarily determined by the epitaxy process which is rather different from the conventional thin film growth. This book shows how the advanced nucleation theory can be used in modeling of growth properties, morphology and crystal ... Read more

  • Growth and Transport in Nanostructured Materials

    Reactive Transport in PVD, CVD, and ALD

    by Angel Yanguas-Gil ...
    Series series Chemistry and Material Science (R0)
    This book will address the application of gas phase thin film methods, including techniques such as evaporation, sputtering, CVD, and ALD to the synthesis of materials on nanostructured and high aspect-ratio high surface area materials. We have chosen to introduce these topics and the different application fields from a chronological perspective: we start with the early concepts of step coverage ... Read more

  • Sweethearts

    The Builders, the Mob and the Men

    by Catherine Wismer ...
    Toronto was Boomtown in the 1960s. The city was growing quickly, gobbling up farmland for suburbs, pushing through expressways, knocking down neighbourhoods to make way for high-rise apartments.With the rapidly growing population, there was huge demand for new housing. Toronto needed apartments, lots of them. It was a perfect market for a new kind of housing high-rise apartments, replacing older ... Read more

  • Dynamic Chemical Processes on Solid Surfaces

    Chemical Reactions and Catalysis

    by Ken-ichi Tanaka ...
    Series series Chemistry and Material Science (R0)
    In this book, the author determines that a surface is itself a new material for chemical reaction, and the reaction of the surface provides additional new materials on that surface. The revelation of that peculiarity is what makes this book different from an ordinary textbook, and this new point of view will help to provide a new impetus when graduate students and researchers consider their ...
