Types of Impurities in single crystal semiconductor nanostructures

Submitted by Ashfaq Adnan on

Hi,

I am looking for information about formation, distribution,
concentration and stability of impurties/ defect in semiconductors,
specifically for cubic SiC. I have some discrete set of
literartures which are neirther systematic, nor elaborate. I would truly
appricitate if any one can suggest me some references.

 

Sincerely,

-Ashfaq Adnan

Each year, several new students begin their studies of Solid Mechanics for PhD degrees at Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences.  The students come from all over the world.  We have no constraint on where they come from.

plane stress problem in abaqus

Submitted by prasadkulkarni on

hi all!

i am a new user of abaqus. i am trying a simple problem of a plate. the plate is made of composite material (orthotropic). i give all the properties correctly. but after submitting the job i get an error that 'laminate type- can be used with plane stress elemnts only'. how could i rectify this? can anyone tell me how to model a plane stress problem in abaqus? what is the significance of plane stress/strain thickness ratio.
