Katie Dao-Ming Bryant was adopted from China and is struggling to understand her place in a world without much knowledge of her past. She is also learning that she has the power to make her own decisions in life. How will she handle a 4th-grade class assignment to write about how she got her name? This series of children's chapter books for elementary school children can be exciting for all children, but is especially written for those who were adopted. It is the author's hope that children and parents will read the books together and share in the journey of understanding the past, while at the same time building a bright and hopeful future. ...

Product Description
Pulsed and pulsed bias sputter deposition are advanced thindeposition techniques that allow one to produce high quality metal andinsulating films. In the pulsed sputtering case, the technique allowsone to deposit insulating films while minimizing adverse effectsassociated with charge accumulation on the target in the reactivedeposition mode. In the pulsed bias sputtering case, one can depositmetal films on an insulating substrate while controlling the degree ofcharging on the substrate. One of the important aspects of thesetechniques is to be able to control the film properties such asdensity, orientation, texture, and morphology during deposition. Thisbook provides basic knowledge on the design of the instrumentation forpulsed and pulsed bias sputtering techniques as well as the knowledgefor the control of thin film properties using the depositionparameters such as pulsing cycle and duty. The book focuses on the basic principles and experimentation of thepulsed and pulsed bias sputter deposition of thin films. The transientcharging characteristics of the target in the DC reactive sputteringof insulator films and of the insulating substrate in the DCsputtering of metal films without the pulsing are discussed in detail.The predictions and experimentation of the discharging(neutralization) strategies using pulsing potentials are presented.Examples are given on the growth of thin films using these strategiesand on the relationship between the film properties the pulsingparameters. In addition, the book also presents in a coherent mannerthe basic physics of DC plasma formation and the utilization of theplasma in the sputtering environment. The book will not only be usefulfor academic researchers but also for industrial scientists interestedin sputter coating of high quality metal and insulating films. Key Features:+ A summary of the basic physics of DC plasma and the utilizationof the plasma in the sputtering environment. + A summary oftypical DC sputtering systems and the properties of these plasmasources are presented. + The transient charging characteristics ofthe target during reactive sputtering of insulating films arediscussed in detail. + The prediction and experimentation of how apulsed sputtering technique can be utilized to control the charging ofthe target are presented. + A description on the use of the pulsedsputtering technique to produce high quality insulating film in thereactive sputtering environment. + The transient chargingcharacteristics of the insulating substrate during the deposition of ametal film is discussed in detail. + The prediction andexperimentation of how a pulsed bias sputtering technique can be usedto control the charging of the substrate are presented. + Adescription on the use of the pulsed bias sputtering technique toproduce high quality metal films on an insulating substrate. ...

Chapters: Sima Yi, Zhang Junzhao, Shi Yan Ming, Yuan Shu, Sima Lang, Zhao Liang, Bu Tao, Liu Guodong, Tie Ya Na, Zhu Xiaodong, Feng Yong, Zhang Lifang, Zhang Fujia. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 47. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Sima Yi (179 - September 7, 251) was a strategist, general, and politician of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms era of China. He is perhaps best known for defending Cao Wei from Zhuge Liang's Northern Expeditions. His success and subsequent rise in prominence paved the way for his grandson Sima Yan's foundation of the Jin Dynasty, which would eventually bring an end to the Three Kingdoms era. After the founding of the Jin Dynasty, Sima Yi was posthumously honored as Emperor Xuan of Jin with the temple name of Gaozu. Sima Yi was one of eight brothers, all of whom were famous due to their lineage. Each of them had a Chinese style name ending with the character Da (). Because of this, the brothers were known collectively as the "Eight Da of Sima" (). This was a term of respect, as other groups of eight talented administrators in previous eras had been referred to in this way. His family resided in Luoyang when Dong Zhuo occupied the city, destroyed it, and moved the capital to Chang'an. Sima Yi's elder brother, Sima Lang led the family to their ancestral home in the Wen district (), and then, correctly predicting that it would become a battlefield, moved them again to Liyang (). In 194, as Cao Cao did battle with Lü Bu, Sima Yi accompanied his family back to Wen district. Accounts on how Sima Yi joined the service of Cao Cao differ, but he accepted his first position in Cao Cao's camp at the age of 30. According to the Book of Jin, Sima Yi believed that the Han Dynasty would soon come to an end, and felt no motivation to join Cao Cao's camp, which had al...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=370499 ...

Huang's book analyzes the major Neo-Confucian philosophers from the eleventh to the sixteenth centuries. Focusing on metaphysical, epistemological, and ethical philosophical issues, this study presents the historical development of the Neo-Confucian school, an outgrowth of ancient Confucianism, and characterizes its thought, background, and influence. Key concepts--for example tai-ji (supreme ultimate), xin (mind), and ren (humanity)--as interpreted by each thinker are discussed in detail. Also examined are the two major schools that developed during this period, Cheng-Zhu, School of Principle, and Lu-Wang, School of Mind. These schools, despite different philosophical orientations, were convinced that their common goal, to bring about a harmonious relationships between man and the universe and between man and man, could be achieved through different ways of philosophizing. To understand the Chinese mind, it is necessary to understand Neo-Confucianism as a reformation of early Confucianism. ... Read more

Product Description

This volume provides a systematic mathematical exposition of the conceptual problems of nonequilibrium statistical physics, such as entropy production, irreversibility, and ordered phenomena. Markov chains, diffusion processes, and hyperbolic dynamical systems are used as mathematical models of physical systems. A measure-theoretic definition of entropy production rate and its formulae in various cases are given. It vanishes if and only if the stationary system is reversible and in equilibrium. Moreover, in the cases of Markov chains and diffusion processes on manifolds, it can be expressed in terms of circulations on directed cycles. Regarding entropy production fluctuations, the Gallavotti-Cohen fluctuation theorem is rigorously proved.

A presentation of a Biblically-based cosmogony that includes the Biblical explanation of:The Origin of the Languages - The Origin of the Continents - The Origin of the RacesWhat did Darwin say?What did Moses say?This author reports that:"Ever since the generation of Charles Darwin, the "scientific community" has just about doubled the age of the earth every twenty-five years.""Most of Western culture is currently persuaded that the Biblical issue is based only on Genesis 1:1.That is most decidedly NOT the issue and every believer should be aware of this.Creation does not rest its argument on one verse of the Scripture.It is deeply interwoven in the fabric of the entire Bible.At the end of this work is an explanation of how the number 'seventy' documents this argument."Many have never heard the arguments presented on the pages of this book.Therefore, our young people have no guidance as to arguments other than what they have presented to them in our schools.Some may know this information, but most have never heard it. ...
