To succeed in the practice of microelectronics in industry, students must develop the ability to think intuitively about circuits. They need to move beyond simply plugging and chugging numbers in equations and be prepared to face real design trade-offs.
Fundamentals of Microelectronics, Preview Edition helps students develop intuitive techniques so they can design and implement circuits [...]
This volume contains the edited lecture notes of the First JETSET School on Jets from Young Stars: Models and Constraints, held by the Marie Curie Research and Training Network on JET Simulations, Experiments and Theory. At this school the lecturers gave an introduction to observational properties and basic models describing the launching and collimation mechanisms [...]
A meticulous account by a man who was there This wonderful book lays out the thought process by which Dirac’s formulation of quantum mechanics, with its much-handwaved-about “bra” and “ket” notation, came to be. Dirac makes minimal assumptions about the reader’s prior education (appropriate, since the first edition was published in an age when a [...]
