Solar Cells
Number of words: 1104 - Number of pages: 5.... solid, the electron energy levels merge into bands. In electrical conductors,
these bands are continuous but in insulators and semiconductors there is an
"energy gap", in which no electron orbits can exist, between the inner valence
band and outer conduction band [Book 1]. Valence electrons help to bind together
the atoms in a solid by orbiting 2 adjacent nucleii, while conduction electrons,
being less closely bound to the nucleii, are free to move in response to an
applied voltage or electric field. The fewer conduction electrons there are, the
higher the electrical resistivity of the mat .....

They use phase-change as a recording material, “wobbled land and groove” recording method, embossed pits for header information, Zoned Constant Linear Velocity (ZCLV) rotational control, and is a random-access, non-sequential medium. DVD-RAM-Compatible readers will require servos to handle switching between the lands and grooves. D .....

Environmentalism
Number of words: 746 - Number of pages: 3.... to create the perfectly balanced “mixture” (Huber). Since there will never be a perfect balance or “mixture”, what is the point of even trying? Maybe they are right in saying that we will never find the perfect mixture, but this negative attitude is part of the problem. Nothing will be accomplished unless we reject apathy and negativity.
One writer, T.H. Watkins, has criticized the idea of putting a “price tag” on the earth. He thinks that it is wrong to assign a value to out planet. How can we possibly give a monetary value to something that we can’t live without? .....
