Shortly before his death in 2014, an elderly man brought his publisher friend a crumpled purple folder filled with type-written pages. <i>Cleaning the Stables</i> he called it: a selection of stories, poems and a recipe that he didn't want left behind. <br /> <br />In this posthumous collection we are given a feast of mostly unpublished treasures from the great literary life of Morris Lurie. Written in the wry and ironic style he was celebrated for, these pieces are sometimes odd, always clever, and at times profoundly moving as they give us insight into a man who had a truly unique way of interpreting and writing about the world around him.<br /> <br /><i>'One of the most significant Australian writers of his generation.' – </i><b>Peter Pierce</b>, editor of the Cambridge History of Australian Literature<br /> <br /><i>'A sharp, rare writer with an acerbic wit</i>.' – <b>Kevin Childs</b>, The Guardian<br /> Получить ссылку |

Handbook for Cleaning for Semiconductor Manufacturing. Fundamentals and Applications
Автор: Reinhardt Karen A.
Год издания:
This comprehensive volume provides an in-depth discussion of the fundamentals of cleaning and surface conditioning of semiconductor applications such as high-k/metal gate cleaning, copper/low-k cleaning, high dose implant stripping, and silicon and SiGe passivation. The theory and fundamental physics associated with wet etching and wet cleaning is reviewed, plus the surface and colloidal aspects of wet processing. Formulation development practices and methodology are presented along with the applications for preventing copper corrosion, cleaning aluminum lines, and other sensitive layers. This is a must-have reference for any engineer or manager associated with using or supplying cleaning and contamination free technologies for semiconductor manufacturing. From the Reviews… «This handbook will be a valuable resource for many academic libraries. Many engineering librarians who work with a variety of programs (including, but not limited to Materials Engineering) should include this work in their collection.
