Beginning with 1949, Taiwan carried out a series of land reforms
which have now been mostly completed.
When the island was returned to China in 1945, tenancy was a
serious problem as it was on the China mainland. Nearly half of its
farm land was under tenancy and some tenants...
Characterization of uranium isotope compositions is of great interest in many nuclear sub-areas for safeguards purposes. Reprocessing facilities utilizing pyroprocessing raised an issue of uranium isotope monitoring due to the difficulty to apply traditional approaches under extreme environments. An rapid and remote method to characterize uranium isotope compositions for such...
Because of the growth of the nuclear power industry in the United States and the policy to ban reprocessing of commercial spent nuclear fuel, the spent fuel inventory at commercial reactor sites has been increasing. With the Yucca Mountain project on hold, more spent fuel is expected to be stored...
Mountain pine beetle infested forests in the Rocky Mountain region raise complicated economic, environmental, and social impacts and pose severe forest management challenges to land managers and public and private landowners. Harvesting infested forest stands provides an opportunity to utilize otherwise wasted resources, mitigate economics losses to landowners, and generate...

In this work, colloidal PbSe quantum dots (QDs) are shown to be synthesized in a controlled manner by changing the growth time and reaction temperature in a microwave synthesis method. It is explained why quantum dots make such a unique material to create electronic devices and the specific benefits that...
The electrical properties of ion-implanted GaAs FET channels
are investigated by two methods. First, the channel current (I) as
a function of voltage (V) is examined at different temperatures and
using different voltage ramp rates. The standard FET I-V curve,
which can be observed on a commercial curve tracer, is...
This undergraduate thesis provides an overview on analyzing and designing open-loop sampleand-
hold (S/H) circuits. It also describes a technique used to verify functions of an S/H circuit
known as beat frequency test, as well as an application of S/H circuit, a dual-slope integrating
analog-to-digital (A/D) converter. The first section...
Irradiation of a tryptamine linked through its side-chain nitrogen to an alkylidene malonate residue results in an intramolecular [2 + 2] cycloaddition to the indole 2,3-double bond. The resultant cyclobutane undergoes spontaneous retro-Mannich fission to produce a spiro[indoline-3,3-pyrrolenine] with relative configuration defined by the orientation of substituents in the transient...
