Interfacial chemistry of oxides on InxGa(1-x)As and implications for MOSFET applications
No full textThe prospect of enhanced device performance from III-V materials has been recognized for at least 50 years, and yet, relative to the phenomenal size of the Si-based IC industry, these materials fulfilled only specific niches and were often referred to as the material of the future [1]. A key restriction enabling widespread use of III-V materials is the lack of a high quality, natural insulator for III-V substrates like that available for the SiO2/Si materials system [2]. The prospect of impending scaling challenges for technologies based on silicon metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) devices has brought renewed focus on the use of alternate surface channel materials from the III-V compound semiconductor family. The performance of the traditional MOSFET device structure is dominated by defects at the semiconductor/oxide interface, which in turn requires a high quality semiconductor surface. In this review, reflecting the authors\u27 current opinion, the recent progress in the understanding of the dielectric/III-V interface is summarized, particularly in regard to the interfacial chemistry that impacts the resultant electrical behavior observed. The first section summarizes the nature of the oxidation states of surface oxides on InxGa1-xAs. Then the atomic layer deposition of such oxides on the InxGa1-xAs surface is summarized in view of the interfacial chemical reactions employed. Finally the resultant electrical properties observed are examined, including the effects of substrate orientation. Portions of this review have been published previously [3,4]. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Author, publisher and bookseller : a tripartite synergy in Nigerian book industry
No full textThis work is about the roles of Author, Publisher and Bookseller in Book development in
Nigeria. The paper started by delving into the history of Book Publishing in Nigeria after
which it proceeded by defining who an author, a publisher, and a bookseller is and
expatiated on the indispensable roles of these key actors in Nigerian Book Industry and in
the emerging Information Society. Furthermore, the various constraints to book
development were identified while the paper advised on how the Book Industry can be
further promoted in Nigeria. However, the paper concluded and made recommendations
on how the Book sector can help in enhancing scholarship in the country
Archaeological Survey of the Historic Chicken Coop, Hinkle-Garton Farmstead (12Mo1509), Bloomington, Indiana
No full textAbstracts are made available for research purposes. To view the full report, please contact the staff of the Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology (www.gbl.indiana.edu)At the request of the administrator of Hinkle-Garton Farmstead (12Mo1509), Bloomington Restoration, Inc., archaeologists from the Department of Anthropology, Indiana University conducted a survey and evaluation of a historic chicken coop on the property located in Bloomington, IN. The survey evaluated the physical structure of the outbuilding and recovered surface materials to provide better contextual information for use of the structure and adjacent surface. Discontinued use of the structure as a chicken coop, followed by use as a dump site or scrap pile, gives broader context to the overall activities occurring at the Hinkle-Garton Farmstead
