It covers the latest developments in field emission theory as well as new methods towards improving thermionic and cold cathodes. It addresses thermionic cathodes, such as oxide cathodes, impregnated and scandate cathodes, as well as photocathodes and field emitters – the latter comprising carbon nanotubes, graphene and Spindt-type emitter arrays. Despite the rise and fall of the once dominant types of vacuum tubes, such as radio valves and cathode ray tubes, cathodes are continually being improved upon as new applications with increased demands arise, for example in electron beam lithography, high-power and high-frequency microwave tubes, terahertz imaging and electron sources for accelerators. Written by 17 experts in the field, the book presents the latest developments in cathodes needed for these applications, discussing the state of the art and addressing future trends.Topics in applied physics ;Volume 135.Vacuum microelectronicsField emissionVacuum microelectronics.Field emission.621.381Gaertner GeorgKnapp Walter H.Forbes R(Richard),MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996418436003316Modern Developments in Vacuum Electron Sources1882009UNISA04457nam 2200793Ia 450 991078821180332120220204012429.00-8232-5225-60-8232-5303-10-8232-5226-40-8232-5110-110.1515/9780823252268(CKB)3170000000060586(EBL)1192588(SSID)ssj0000860868(PQKBManifestationID)11542444(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000860868(PQKBWorkID)10914669(PQKB)10700327(StDuBDS)EDZ0000173350(MiAaPQ)EBC3239811(OCoLC)843882953(MdBmJHUP)muse22185(DE-B1597)555138(DE-B1597)9780823252268(MiAaPQ)EBC1192588(Au-PeEL)EBL3239811(CaPaEBR)ebr10687104(CaONFJC)MIL487181(Au-PeEL)EBL1192588(MiAaPQ)EBC4704613(EXLCZ)99317000000006058620130311d2013 uy 0engur|||||||nn|ntxtccrTechnologies of life and death[electronic resource] from cloning to capital punishment /Kelly Oliver1st ed.New York Fordham University Press20131 online resource (272 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-8232-5109-8 0-8232-5108-X Includes bibliographical references and index.Front matter --Contents --Acknowledgments --Introduction: Moral Machines and Political Animals --One.

Death Penalties: Ethics, Politics, and the Unconscious of Sovereignty --Notes --Bibliography --IndexThe central aim of this book is to approach contemporary problems raised by technologies of life and death as ethical issues that call for a more nuanced approach than mainstream philosophy can provide. To do so, it draws on the recently published seminars of Jacques Derrida to analyze the extremes of birth and dying insofar as they are mediated by technologies of life and death. With an eye to reproductive technologies, it shows how a deconstructive approach can change the very terms of contemporary debates over technologies of life and death, from cloning to surrogate motherhood to capital punishment, particularly insofar as most current discussions assume some notion of a liberal individual. The ethical stakes in these debates are never far from political concerns such as enfranchisement, citizenship, oppression, racism, sexism, and the public policies that normalize them. Technologies of Life and Death thus provides pointers for rethinking dominant philosophical and popular assumptions about nature and nurture, chance and necessity, masculine and feminine, human and animal, and what it means to be a mother or a father. In part, the book seeks to disarticulate a tension between ethics and politics that runs through these issues in order to suggest a more ethical politics by turning the force of sovereign violence back against itself. In the end, it proposes that deconstructive ethics with a psychoanalytic supplement can provide a corrective for moral codes and political clichés that turn us into mere answering machines.BioethicsBiotechnologyMoral and ethical aspectsDerrida.animals.art.capital punishment.cloning.genetic engineering.girls.reproductive technologies.Bioethics.BiotechnologyMoral and ethical aspects.174.2Oliver Kelly1958-689708MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910788211803321Technologies of life and death3759572UNINA02653nam 2200577 a 450 991043758010332120200520144314.01-283-74043-51-4471-4570-410.1007/978-1-4471-4570-7(CKB)2670000000278002(EBL)1030422(OCoLC)820329394(SSID)ssj0000791415(PQKBManifestationID)11441538(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000791415(PQKBWorkID)10758128(PQKB)11574236(DE-He213)978-1-4471-4570-7(MiAaPQ)EBC1030422(PPN)168293803(EXLCZ)99267000000027800220121108d2013 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrGuide to modeling and simulation of systems of systems user's reference /Bernard P.
