    My Philosophy Teacher: A Probabilistic Study of Science

    And, if you ask me, this is one of the great thibgs about science. Scientists are willing (generally) to revise what they know ...to say "Ok, I know a bit more information now, so that means what I thought was right before has changed a bit". I wonder would your philosophy teacher be so open...

    Fermi level de-pinning & Schottky barrier

    Hello. I was womdering does anyone know any good resources of information on Fermi level de-pinning & Schottky barriers? I have been hunting around online, with not much luck. I thought someone here might be able to suggest some things. Thanks. Seán

    How do you get from one to the other

    Yes, two. One, I am a bit of an idiot, and two, I should have been asleep hours ago! Sorry about that :redface: Yes, I think I have it now. Thanks for everyones help! And I shall make sure I read over what I have written before I submit it in future! Again, many thanks. Seán

    How do you get from one to the other

    Hello, thanks for the reply! Right, am I right in saying that the de^(x-d)-(x-d) comes to e^0 = 1? But the why is the other other exponential all over d, and not d - d? Thanks. Seán

    How do you get from one to the other

    Hello. Sorry, there was a typo, the second line should have been \frac{d}{D_pB}\int e^{x/d}(-de^{-W_B/d} + de^{-x/d}) dx Working out the brackets, I get e^{x/d}(-de^{-W_B/d} + de^{-x/d}) dx goes to (I think) -de^{x-W_B/d} + de^{d} I am not sure about the de^d part. Seán

    How do you get from one to the other

    Hello. I am going through some worked examples for a class I have, and there is one step I don't understand, and I hope someone can help me with that. It goes from \frac{1}{D_pB}\int e^{x/d}(-de^{-W_B/d} + de^{-x/d}) dx to \frac{1}{D_pB}\int (1 - e^{x-W_B/d}) dx The limits are...

    DSP - Differential Equation for linear system H

    Hello, Rather than start another topic, since this question is related to this tread, I thought I would just tack it on here. We were asked to "Derive a formula for the output signal y as a function of t". I think I have done this correctly, but would be very grateful if someone could cast...

    DSP - Differential Equation for linear system H

    Well, the online reference I used to make sure said d/dt sin x = cos x. So, I was taking x = wt. Anyway, that is neither here nor there. Again, thank you for all your help, and I will check out that book you mentioned. Seán

    DSP - Differential Equation for linear system H

    Hello, Well, differentiating a constant is zero, but I am not sure of that holds for 0. And differentiating sin(wt) would be cos(wt). I have done a course in electrical circuits, but it is all very rusty, and very much from a hands on point of view. Seán

    DSP - Differential Equation for linear system H

    So, if I have it right, it should be y'(t) + 2y(t) = x(t)? Yea, that would be great! I really want to learn as much as I can! And again, thanks so much for all your help. Hopefully (if I finally have it right) I will be able to do it myself. Seán

    DSP - Differential Equation for linear system H

    The sY(s) is the is the first derivative y'(t) No worries, it is nearly 3am here, and I need some sleep! Thanks. Seán

    DSP - Differential Equation for linear system H

    That should be sY(s) + 2Y(s) = X(s)
