Chirally stacked N-layer graphene systems with N≥2 exhibit a variety of distinct broken symmetry states in which charge density contributions from different spins and valleys are spontaneously transferred between layers. We explain how these states are distinguished by their charge, spin, and valley Hall conductivities, by their orbital magnetizations, and by their edge state properties. We arg...

The Mechanical Engineering Program at the San Jose State University (SJSU), located in the hub of the world renown Silicon Valley, has recently completed a three-year project in developing a mechatronics systems engineering curriculum stem in its undergraduate curriculum. This development is the first and still the only such case in this country. This paper will deal with our experience in deve...

In 1956 a food technologist at Oregon State University made a startling discovery: cans of meat that had supposedly been sterilized with gamma radiation contained a thriving organism, subsequently named Deinococcus radiodurans. D. radiodurans has been shown to survive and continue to function after being exposed to radiation doses up to 10 times those that would kill most bacteria. In addition,...

Quantum dots in silicon are promising candidates for the implementation of solid-state quantum information processing. It is important to understand the effects of the multiple conduction band valleys of silicon on the properties of these devices. Here we present a systematic effective mass theory of valley-orbit coupling in disordered silicon systems. This theory reveals valley-orbit hybridiza...

Neogene extension in the Death Valley region, SE California, has produced a variety of sedimentary basins. Diachronous movements on an array of strike-slip and normal fault systems have resulted in the uplift and preservation of older basins in modern ranges. One of the best exposed of these is the Nova basin on the western flank of the Panamint Mountains. The Nova basin includes over 2000 m of...

The generation of valley current is a fundamental goal in graphene valleytronics but no practical ways of its realization are known yet. We propose a workable scheme for the generation of bulk valley current in a graphene mechanical resonator through adiabatic cyclic deformations of the strains and a chemical potential in the suspended region. The accompanied strain gauge fields can break the s...

This content analysis examined portrayals of scientist characters in 14 television programs popular among or likely to have been viewed by middle school–age children. While male scientists significantly outnumbered and appeared in significantly more scenes than did female scientists, males and females were depicted similarly in reference to professional position, marital status, and parental st...

This paper presents a numerical investigation of air pollutant transport from the Los Angeles Basin to Grand Canyon National Park (GCNP) under the stably stratified wintertime, synoptic highpressure conditions that existed during lo-13 February 1987. The Colorado State University Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (CSU-RAMS) is used to develop fields of different atmospheric variables for 54 ...
