About this book

For 50 years conventional electronics has ignored the electron spin. The manipulation and utilisation of the electron spin heralds an exciting and rapidly changing era in electronics, combining the disciplines of magnetism and traditional electronics. The first generation of "spintronic" devices (such as read heads based on giant magnetoresistance or non-volatile magnetic random access memories) have already gained dominant positions in the market place. This volume, the first of its kind on spin electronics, describes all the essential topics for new researchers entering the field. It covers magnetism and semiconductor basics, micromagnetism, experimental techniques, material science, device fabrication and new developments in spin-dependent processes. At the end of most chapters are a number of exercises and worked problems to aid the reader in understanding this fascinating new field.

Colloidal Dispersions Under Slit-Pore Confinement

Yan Zeng

This dissertation contributes to the understanding of fundamental issues in the highly interdisciplinary field of colloidal science. Beyond colloid science, the system also serves as a model for studying interactions in biological matter. This work quantitatively investigated the scaling laws of the characteristic lengths of the structuring of colloidal dispersions and tested the generality of these laws, thereby explaining and resolving some long-standing contradictions in the literature. It revealed the effect of confinement on the structuring, independently of specific properties of the confining interfaces. In addition, it resolved the influence of roughness and charge of the confining interfaces on the structuring, as well as providing a method to measure the effect of surface deformability on colloidal structuring.

From non-covalent assemblies to molecular machines

Jean-Pierre Sauvage and Pierre Gaspard

Based on the Solvay conference, which gathers the leading scientists in the field, this monograph collects review articles from the six topics of the conference, while also including comments, discussions and debates obtained during the conference.--

Quality Assurance and Tolerance

Günter Kirschling

It is in general not possible to produce technical products having precisely predefined measures. Systematic and random deviations from nominal size cannot be avoided, and it is therefore necessary to define measurement tolerances. This book offers a comprehensive presentation of tolerance problems and their solution by statistical methods. All calculated solutions are presented in clear figure or graphical form. It is particularly appropriate for those working in the field of development and construction or in production and quality control, especially in mechanical engineering and related fields.

Analytical morphology

[edited by Jiang Gu

Analytical Morphology is a new discipline dealing with the analysis of cell and tissue components using analytical maneuvers that go beyond those of conventional morphology and histopathology. It utilizes new advances in other disciplines, such as immunology, molecular biology, laser technology, microwave technology and computer science, to highlight cellular components such as peptides, proteins, or nucleotide sequences through chemical, physical, immunological, or molecular biological reactions. These methods include immunocytochemistry, in situ hybridization, in situ PCR, antigen retrieval, image analysis, and the like. The book is intended for morphological scientists, pathologists, advanced students, and technicians who are interested in keeping abreast of this rapidly emerging discipline.
