A central issue in material science is to obtain understanding of the electronic correlations that control complex materials. Such electronic correlations frequently arise because of the competition of localized and itinerant electronic degrees of freedom. Although the respective limits of well-localized or entirely itinerant ground states are well understood, the intermediate regime that contr...

Computer simulations of materials, or computer experiments, are strongly on the way to become an alternative to experiments in the strive to understand material properties. A basic ingredient in dealing with materials properties is their electronic structure. The methods to calculate the electronic structures from first principles (density functional methods) become more efficient and accurate,...

This work in progress examines cognitive scaffolding in the instructional design of contemporary computer documentation. It illustrates how the cognitive theories of advance organizers, load theory, and normal ordering may be applied to educational technology and classroom instruction to create more effective computer documentation. I will research the macrostructures common in contemporary com...

Single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) have emerged as a very promising new class of electronic materials. The fabrication and electronic properties of devices based on individual SWNTs are reviewed. Both metallic and semiconducting SWNTs are found to possess electrical characteristics that compare favorably to the best electronic materials available. Manufacturability issues, however, remain a...

Electronic legal education involves the use of information, communication and instructional technologies to enhance students learning of the law and to provide law teachers with environments and tools for teaching the law. Since the beginning of the Eighties these types of technologies were introduced in legal education at Law schools and faculties of Law. The first applications in this field w...

titanium dioxide is one kind of important materials, which has been extensively investigated because of its unique electronic and optical properties. a large number of efforts have been made to synthesize tio2 materials with different methods. in this review paper, we summarize the synthesis pathways, morphology, as well as crystallization of the nanostructured tio2. in addition, we also mentio...
