ABACUS—Introduction to Semiconductor Devices
When we hear the term semiconductor device, we may think first of the transistors in PCs or video game consoles, but transistors are the basic component in all of the electronic devices we use in our daily lives. Electronic systems are built from such components as transistors, capacitors,...
Electronics from the Bottom Up: A New Approach to Nanoelectronic Devices and Materials
Vision The Network for Computational Nanotechnology seeks to bring a new perspective to engineering education to meet the challenges and opportunities of modern nanotechnology. Fifty years ago our field faced a similar challenge brought on by the advent of the transistor and it was met...
Data Archiving
Data Preservation Practices Motivation Scientific research must be reproducible. If is it not reproducible, it is not science. When you publish a paper, you must include enough information so that others could, in principle, re-produce the results of your work. You also want to be sure that...
