Fundamentals of Ethics for Scientists and Engineers represents a new a pproach to introductory ethics that is both practical and accessible. Classical virtue theory is employed to provide a time-tested, simple, and easily remembered basis for ethical reasoning. The text is modular ized for easy use in both stand-alone ethics courses and as self-conta ined units within engineering core courses. The text is accompanied by an instructor's manual that includes a comprehensive set of sample le ctures and course assignments, detailed homework solutions, and many h elpful hints for teaching an...

Defects in semiconductors have been studied for many years, in many cases with a view toward controlling their behaviour through various forms of defect engineering . For example, in the bulk, charging significantly affects the total concentration of defects that are available to mediate phenomena such as solid-state diffusion. Surface defects play an important role in mediating surface mass transport during high temperature processing steps such as epitaxial film deposition, diffusional smoothing in reflow, and nanostructure formation in memory device fabrication. Charged Defects in...
