Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In the world of semiconductor photonic device fabrication, one important objective may be to extract as much light as possible from the device. In these devices, photons are created when electrons recombine with holes by transitioning from a high- energy state to a lower one. Unfortunately, electron-hole recombination does not always result in the formation of a photon. There are three basic types of recombination: the first results in the formation of a photon and is called radiative recombination; and the second and third, known as Shockley-Read-Hall and Auger recombination, result in the heating of the device and do not produce photons and are therefore called non-radiative recombination. All three processes occur simultaneously in a device, and either a radiative or non-radiative recombination coefficient can be associated with the relative rate of each. The lifetime of an electron in a high-energy state is so small, on the order of nanoseconds, that there is no way to measure these coefficients directly. However, sum frequency generation is a technique to indirectly measure these coefficients by taking advantage of the speed of light to resolve these processes in time. From the resulting data, these recombination coefficients can be extracted.…

387 pp.; 28.5 x 22.5 cm.; glue bound; black-and-white; edition size unknown; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed Exhibition catalogue and documentation of preparation for exhibition held in 1971. Large-scale book documenting the thrills and chills of when artists and scientists [or corporations] joined together by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art attempted to produce collaborative works. Amazingly self-critical of the failures [and limited success] of the program. Full documentation of each of the invited artists in narrative, blow-by-blow detail. Includes sections on Stephen Antonakos, Avigdor Arikha, Michael Asher, John Baldessari, Iain Baxter, Larry Bell, Max Bill, Ronald Bladen, George Brecht, James Byars, Greg Card, Anthony Caro, John Chamberlain, Christo, Ron Cooper, François Dallegret, Channa Davis, Ron Davis, Walter de Maria, Mark di Suvero, Jean Dubuffet, Jean Dupuy, frederick Eversley, Oyvind Fahlstrom, Dan Flavin, Sam Francis, Hans Haacke, Newton Harrison, Erich Hartmann, Robert Irwin, Donald Judd, Aleksandra Kasuba, Ellsworth Kelly, Philip King, R.B.
