An important aspect in device technology is the
processing of GaAs to produce highly-resolved etch
patterns on the substrate. This is done typically on the
GaAs(100) surface. Recently, a number of methods, all
using chlorinated vapor reactants, have been applied to
fabrication of GaAs devices. In spite of these
technological...
Forests in the Pacific Northwest receive very little nitrogen through atmospheric deposition and thus studying the nitrogen cycle in this region can provide insights into how the unpolluted nitrogen cycle functions. I examined the fate of organic nitrogen versus inorganic nitrogen and the effect of tamlins on N retention by...
Service life prediction models for light-framed wood structures require an extensive quantity of empirical data on deterioration pathologies for the numerous structural components, as well as mechanistic approaches to determine their capacity at various levels of deterioration. The data and models presented in this study satisfy a portion of the...
