Hyperpure silicon can be doped with boron‚ gallium‚ phosphorus‚ or arsenic to produce silicon for use in transistors‚ solar cells‚ rectifiers‚ and other solid-state devices‚ which are used extensively in the electronics and space-age industries.

However it is very hard‚ you can look on a scale at dmtsharp.com‚ Aluminum Oxide is third on the scale in hardness‚ only Diamond and Cubic Boron Nitride are harder. (B) It does stick significantly less than bare metal pans such as Stainless Steal. (C) The silver ’scratches’ you see sometimes are generally not scratches at all. Aluminum Oxide can hold color.

Sample Midterm Examination The midterm examination is two (2) hours long. In the actual examination you would not be allowed to consult your books or notes; however‚ you would be able to use a calculator. We strongly recommend that you sit this examination as if you were writing it in an invigilated setting. You will get a much better idea of your degree of preparedness for the actual examination. Part A: Short–answer Questions (1 mark each) 1. Calculate the density of bromine‚ given that 120.0

“Science does not know it’s debt to imagination.” “Men love to wonder‚ and that is the seed of science.” Ralph Waldo Emerson was right on point when he said these two statements. There have been numerous great scientists that have come in and out of this world‚ and there are many to still come. When Emerson said these two quotes‚ he was talking about all of these scientists. The world we live in today would not be the same without the imagination and wonder of scientists; therefore we owe everything

Translocation of Organic Solutes Plants synthesize food materials by photosynthesis and store the same in the form of starch grains in the chloroplasts found in mesophyll cells. Then the found material is converted into simple sugars; then it is transported to regions where it is required – stem apex‚ young flower buds fruits and storage organs are the sites to which the organic food is translocated. The site of synthesis and the site of need are separated by time and space. The structures

FREE ELECTRON THEORY Classical free electron theory of metals This theory was developed by Drude and Lorentz and hence is also known as Drude-Lorentz theory. According to this theory‚ a metal consists of electrons which are free to move about in the crystal like molecules of a gas in a container. Mutual repulsion between electrons is ignored and hence potential energy is taken as zero. Therefore the total energy of the electron is equal to its kinetic energy. Drift velocity If no electric

What is so great about renewable energy? Well‚ because its renewable. Renewable energy will last forever and it cost close to nothing to get it. But it will always be their‚ unlike coal that once its gone‚ its gone. I think that the best process to get renewable energy is through geothermal plants. Some scientists think that the amount of geothermal energy stored in the earth will outlast our energy consumption and it may even outlast the sun. (Energy Informative) Geothermal is the most cost effective

Most turning is done with coated index able carbide inserts‚ but the tool material may also be high-speed steel‚ brazed carbide‚ ceramic‚ cubic boron nitride‚ or polycrystalline diamond. 75 percent of turning operations use just a few basic tool geometries.
