Integrated Circuit Failure Analysis: A Guide to Preparation Techniques by Friedrich Beck, ISBN 0471974013
Fault analysis of highly-integrated semiconductor circuits has become an indispensable discipline in the optimization of product quality. Integrated Circuit Failure Analysis describes state-of-the-art procedures for exposing suspected failure sites in semiconductor devices. The author adopts a hands-on problem-oriented approach, founded on many years of practical experience, complemented by the explanation of basic theoretical principles. Features include: Advanced methods in device preparation and technical procedures for package inspection and semiconductor reliability. Illustration of chip isolation and step-by-step delayering of chips by wet chemical and modern plasma dry etching techniques. Particular analysis of bipolar and MOS circuits, although techniques are equally relevant to other semiconductors. Advice on the choice of suitable laboratory equipment. Numerous photographs and drawings providing guidance for checking results. Focusing on modern techniques, this practical text will enable both academic and industrial researchers and IC designers to expand the range of analytical and preparative methods at their disposal and to adapt to the needs of new technologies.
Welding Metallurgy by Sindo Kou, ISBN 0471434914
The premier reference for welding metallurgy, completely revised and expanded
Since its initial publication in 1987, Welding Metallurgy has been the standard text for the instruction of welding in technical schools and as a reference for professional welders. Updating the existing material and adding a substantial amount of new content, the Second Edition expands the scope of the first and remains the benchmark resource in its field.
Metallurgical phenomena are explained with the help of illustrations that integrate the phase diagram, thermal cycle, kinetics, microstructure, and physical properties. More exercise problems are provided in the Second Edition, and a Solutions Manual is available upon request. Examples of updated features include: Much sharper photomicrographs and line drawingsUpdated heat-source efficiency and melting efficiencyUpdated and expanded chemical reactions in weldingTurbulence (now included in weld pool convection), flow visualization, and arc-plasma draggingSolute...

Plasma Confinement
Detailed and authoritative, this volume examines the essential physics underlying international research in magnetic confinement fusion. It offers readable, thorough accounts of the fundamental concepts behind methods of confining plasma at or near thermonuclear conditions. Designed for a one-or two-semester graduate-level course in plasma physics, it also represents a valuable reference for professional physicists in controlled fusion and related disciplines. Unabridged republication of the edition published by Addison-Wesley Publishing Company, Redwood City, California, 1992.
