The present invention relates to a surface treatment method of a silicon based substrate, and more particularly, it relates to an etching process using plasma.
In a manufacturing process of silicon substrates which are used in semiconductor devices, a thinning-substrate process is prepared for thinning a substrate in order to produce slim semiconductor devices. After circuit patterns are formed on a surface of a silicon substrate, this thinning-substrate process is done by mechanical polishing on a face opposite to the circuit-formed surface. However, the mechanical polishing invites a stress-alteration layer including micro cracks on the surface or around the surface layer of the silicon substrate. The stress-alteration layer would lower the strength of the silicon substrate, therefore, an etching process is provided after the mechanical polishing in order to remove the stress-alteration layer formed on the silicon surface. A plasma etching process has been discussed to be used as a new etching method alternative to a conventional wet-etching method. Because the plasma etching process does not produce chemicals or industrial waste, both of which have been produced by the conventional wet-etching method.
This plasma etching for silicon substrate uses mixed gas including fluorine based gas such as carbon tetrafluoride (CF4) or sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) in order to produce plasma. The fluorine based gas is ionized or excited by plasma discharge, and these ions or radicals etch the silicon surface.
This plasma etching process leaves reaction product on the surface, and the reaction product sometimes attaches again to the surface of the silicon substrate. Etching speed differs depending on a place, e.g., the speed at a place where the reaction product attaches is different from the speed at another place where no reaction product attaches. As a result, an ununiform milky dull color appears on the surface after the etching. This appearance degrades the product per se. To overcome this appearance problem, when a silicon substrate is etched by plasma, the entire surface of the silicon substrate is etched as uniform as possible so that the etched surface can be finished as a mirror surface. A condition of plasma processing is prepared for obtaining this mirror surface.
When the etched surface is finished as a mirror surface, an appearance of the product becomes good; however, the product encounters the following problems. First, marks printed on the surface after the etching are difficult to read. To be more specific, marks indicating a product name and a lot number are printed by a laser marker on a silicon substrate after the etching; however, a mirror surface with the marks printed gives a poor contrast, which makes the marks difficult to be recognized.
Second, in die-bonding, i.e., when a semiconductor chip is mounted to a substrate such as a lead frame after the semiconductor chip is cut from the silicon substrate, the semiconductor chip is hard to remove from adhesive tape. In the die-bonding, the silicon substrate is bonded to adhesive tape on its etched surface (the surface opposite to the surface where circuits are formed), and a semiconductor chip is detached from the adhesive tape by a sucking nozzle one by one, and picked up before die-bonded to a given board. When the etched surface is finished as a mirror surface, adhesive strength between a semiconductor chip and adhesive tape becomes excessively strong, so that the semiconductor chip sometimes cannot be removed in a regular way. Even if the semiconductor chip is stuck up upward by an ejector pin when the chip is picked up, the chip is hard to remove from the tape. This situation invites an error in picking up operation.
In the conventional surface treatment of a silicon based substrate, when a process condition is prepared for obtaining a mirror surface as an etched surface, the problems discussed above occur. This is because an appearance quality is given priority. If another condition is prepared for avoiding the problems and admitting a milky-dull color appearance, the milky-dull color appears ununiformly.
The present invention provides a surface treatment method of a silicon based substrate. Through this method, the surface is etched using plasma, and a uniform milky-dull color appears on an etched surface, so that a good appearance is obtained. Further, die-bonding operation free from pick-up errors can be expected.
The present invention addresses the problem discussed above, and a surface-treatment method of the invention comprises the following steps:
a step of first plasma etching for forming fine dimples on a polished surface of a silicon based substrate which has undergone a thinning process by mechanical polishing; and
a step of second plasma etching by plasma process using gas for producing plasma, the gas including fluorine based gas.
Through these two steps, a uniform milky-dull color appears on an entire etched surface of the substrate. This is an object of the present invention.
A method of surface-treatment of a silicon based substrate comprises at least the following steps.
a first plasma etching for forming fine dimples on a surface to be etched; and
a second plasma etching, carried out after the first plasma etching, for further etching the surface through plasma process using gas for producing plasma, the gas including fluorine based gas.
This surface treatment allows printed marks on the surface to be read with ease even if the substrate is mechanically polished for being thinned. Also the surface treatment prevents an error in picking up operation when a semiconductor chip is die-bonded on a given board. As a result, thin semiconductor devices can be manufactured efficiently.

Lesson Title: Plasma Etching Process for Silicon Substrates

Introduction:
Plasma etching is a critical process in the manufacturing of semiconductor devices. It involves the use of ionized gas to selectively remove material from a silicon substrate. This process is essential in the production of slim semiconductor devices, where a thinning-substrate process is carried out after circuit patterns are formed on the surface of the silicon substrate. However, the mechanical polishing involved in this process creates a stress-alteration layer that weakens the substrate, making it necessary to remove this layer using an etching process. In this lesson, we will explore the plasma etching process and its application in the manufacturing of semiconductor devices.

Section 1: Plasma Etching Process Overview

Topic 1: What is Plasma Etching?
Plasma etching is a process that uses ionized gas to selectively remove material from a silicon substrate. The process involves the use of reactive gases that react with the substrate material, creating a plasma that etches away the unwanted material.

Topic 2: How does Plasma Etching Work?
Plasma etching works by creating a plasma from a gas mixture that includes a reactive species. The reactive species reacts with the silicon substrate, creating a chemical reaction that etches away the material. The plasma also generates ions and radicals that further enhance the etching process.

Topic 3: Types of Plasma Etching
There are two main types of plasma etching: isotropic and anisotropic. Isotropic etching removes material uniformly in all directions, while anisotropic etching removes material preferentially in one direction. Anisotropic etching is commonly used in the manufacturing of semiconductor devices to create precise patterns on the silicon substrate.

Section 2: Applications of Plasma Etching in Semiconductor Manufacturing

Topic 1: Thinning-Substrate Process
After circuit patterns are formed on the surface of a silicon substrate, the thinning-substrate process is carried out to produce slim semiconductor devices. Mechanical polishing is used to thin the substrate, but this process creates a stress-alteration layer that lowers the strength of the silicon substrate. Plasma etching is used to remove this layer and improve the quality of the final product.

Topic 2: Etch Stop Layers
Etch stop layers are used in the manufacturing of semiconductor devices to prevent the etching process from damaging the desired circuit patterns. Plasma etching is used to create these layers by selectively removing material from the silicon substrate, leaving behind a protective layer that prevents further etching.

Topic 3: Edge Beveling
Plasma etching is used to create edge bevels on the silicon substrate, which improves the adhesion of metal layers and reduces the risk of cracking during subsequent processes.

Section 3: Plasma Etching Process Parameters

Topic 1: Gas Composition
The choice of gas mixture is crucial in the plasma etching process. Reactive gases, such as fluorine-based gases, are commonly used to etch silicon substrates. The gas composition determines the selectivity and etch rate of the process.

Topic 2: Pressure and Power
The pressure and power applied during the plasma etching process affect the density and distribution of the reactive species in the plasma. Higher pressures and powers generally result in higher etch rates and better selectivity.

Topic 3: Process Temperature
The temperature of the silicon substrate during the etching process can affect the etch rate and selectivity. Lower temperatures generally result in slower etch rates and better selectivity, while higher temperatures can increase the etch rate but may also cause damage to the substrate.

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we have explored the plasma etching process and its applications in the manufacturing of semiconductor devices. We have covered the basic principles of plasma etching, the types of etching, and the process parameters that can be adjusted to optimize the etching process. By understanding these concepts, students can apply their knowledge to design and optimize etching processes for various semiconductor manufacturing applications.

Lesson: Introduction to Digital Voice

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts
Digital Voice (DV) is a mode of communication used by amateur radio operators that allows them to transmit and receive voice signals over a digital medium. Unlike analog communication, which uses continuous signals to transmit information, digital communication uses discrete signals to represent data. In DV, the voice signal is first converted into a digital signal using an audio codec, which then transmits the digital data over the airwaves.

The quality of the digital signal depends on several factors, including the strength of the signal, the frequency of the transmission, and the type of modulation used. In DV, the signal is typically transmitted using phase shift keying (PSK) or frequency shift keying (FSK), which are forms of amplitude modulation. These methods of modulation allow the digital signal to be transmitted with minimal distortion and interference.

## Section 2: Practical Examples
To understand how DV works in practice, let's consider an example scenario. Suppose a radio operator wants to communicate with another operator using DV. First, the operator would need to connect their radio to a computer running DV software. The software would then convert the operator's voice into a digital signal using an audio codec.

Next, the digital signal would be transmitted over the airwaves using a specific frequency and modulation method. Once received, another operator would need to use their radio and DV software to decode the digital signal and convert it back into an audio signal. The receiver's radio would then output the audio signal, allowing the operator to hear the other party's voice.

## Section 3: Real-World Scenarios
In addition to theoretical concepts and practical examples, it's also important to consider real-world scenarios where DV might be used. One such scenario is during emergency response situations, where DV can provide a reliable means of communication even in areas with poor cellular coverage.

Another scenario is during international travel, where DV can be used to communicate with other operators in different countries. This is particularly useful for amateur radio operators who enjoy traveling and exploring new regions.

## Glossary
- Amateur Radio: A hobby that involves operating radio equipment for non-commercial purposes.
- Audio Codec: A device or software program that converts analog audio signals into digital signals.
- Digital Signal: A signal that is represented by a series of discrete values, rather than a continuous signal.
- Modulation: The process of adding information to a carrier wave in order to transmit data.
- Phase Shift Keying (PSK): A method of modulation that uses two phases (0 and 180 degrees) to represent digital data.
- Frequency Shift Keying (FSK): A method of modulation that uses two frequencies to represent digital data.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, Digital Voice is a powerful tool for amateur radio operators that allows them to communicate with others using a digital medium. By understanding the theoretical concepts behind DV, practicing real-world scenarios, and utilizing the appropriate software and hardware, amateur radio operators can experience the benefits of digital communication.

Effect of radiation and tirapazamine (SR-4233) on three melanoma cell lines.
In this study the response of three melanoma cell lines to single doses of radiation, to the bioreductive drug tirapazamine (SR-4233) and to the combination of radiation and tirapazamine was determined. Tirapazamine is a bioreductive drug with specific cytotoxicity in hypoxic conditions. Three melanoma cell lines (MM576, MM96L and murine B16-F10) were exposed to increasing concentrations of tirapazamine to assess cytotoxicity under aerobic and hypoxic conditions. Also, clonogenic survival after single doses of 4 MV X-rays was determined under aerobic and hypoxic conditions, with and without 20 microM tirapazamine. Tirapazamine was an effective hypoxic cytotoxin in the three cell lines. The concentrations of tirapazamine causing equal cell kill were 1000 mM for aerobic cells and 50 mM for hypoxic cells. The oxygen enhancement ratios for single X-ray doses were between 2 and 3 for all the cell lines. Addition of 20 microM tirapazamine to hypoxic cells 1 h before irradiation produced the same radiosensitivity as aerobic cells. Tirapazamine had a minimal effect on the radiosensitivity of aerobic cells. Since melanomas are known to contain hypoxic cells which may reduce their radiosensitivity, these in vitro results have demonstrated the potential of tirapazamine to overcome the radioresistance of hypoxia and give encouragement for further studies.

Lesson: Understanding Credit Reports and Credit Scores

Introduction:
Credit reports and credit scores play a crucial role in our financial lives. They determine our ability to get loans, credit cards, and even rent an apartment. In this lesson, we will learn about credit reports and credit scores, how they are calculated, and how to improve them.

Section 1: What is a Credit Report?
A credit report is a document that contains information about your credit history. It includes details about your credit accounts, such as credit cards and loans, payment history, current balances, and credit limits. Lenders use credit reports to evaluate your creditworthiness and make decisions about whether to approve or deny your loan application.

Section 2: What is a Credit Score?
A credit score is a numerical representation of your creditworthiness. It is based on the information in your credit report and is used by lenders to determine your ability to repay a loan. The most commonly used credit score is the FICO score, which ranges from 300 to 850. A higher score indicates a lower credit risk and a greater likelihood of being approved for loans and credit cards.

Section 3: How are Credit Reports and Credit Scores Calculated?
Credit reports and credit scores are calculated using several factors, including payment history, credit utilization, length of credit history, types of credit, and recent credit inquiries. Payment history is the most important factor in determining your credit score, followed by credit utilization and length of credit history.

Section 4: How can I Improve my Credit Report and Credit Score?
There are several steps you can take to improve your credit report and credit score:

1. Pay your bills on time. Late payments can negatively impact your credit score.
2. Keep your credit utilization low. High credit utilization rates can indicate a higher credit risk.
3. Maintain a diverse credit portfolio. Having a mix of credit accounts, such as credit cards, loans, and mortgages, can demonstrate responsible credit behavior.
4. Keep old credit accounts open. Closing old credit accounts can shorten your credit history and negatively affect your credit score.
5. Monitor your credit report regularly. Regularly reviewing your credit report can help you catch errors and fraudulent activity.

Oxygen affinity of avian blood.
Oxygen dissociation curves plotted directly on whole blood during oxygenation using a Radiometer DCA 1 gave P50 values of 39.2 +/- 2.2 mm Hg and 51.3 +/- 6.2 mm Hg for pigeon and chicken blood, respectively, at 41 degrees C, pH 7.5 and PCO2 29 mm Hg. These values agree well with earlier results obtained by a variety of methods; however, they do conflict with recent findings of a much higher oxygen affinity in avian blood which were obtained using a different plotting method. It was shown that with the method used in this paper the high metabolic rate of avian blood has little effect on the plotted curve at saturations below 50%. At higher saturations O2 consumption of red cells affects a progressive shift of the curve to the left so that to obtain accurate curves at high saturation it is necessary to correct the plotted curves for the oxygen utilization.

Lesson: Oxygen Affinity of Avian Blood
Introduction:
Oxygen affinity refers to the tendency of hemoglobin to bind to oxygen molecules. In this lesson, we will learn about the oxygen affinity of avian blood, which is the blood of birds. We will explore how scientists measure oxygen affinity and compare the results to previous studies.
Core Value:
The core value of this lesson is understanding the importance of accurate measurements and comparison to previous studies in scientific research.
Section 1: Oxygen Affinity Measurement
In order to measure the oxygen affinity of avian blood, scientists use a technique called the Radiometer DCA 1. This device allows them to plot an oxygen dissociation curve, which shows how hemoglobin binds to oxygen at different levels of oxygen saturation.
Questions and Answers:
1. What is the oxygen dissociation curve?
2. How does the Radiometer DCA 1 device help scientists measure oxygen affinity?
Section 2: Comparison to Previous Studies
When scientists measure the oxygen affinity of avian blood, they compare their results to previous studies to ensure accuracy. If the results differ significantly, it may indicate that there is an error in the methodology or that further research is needed.
Questions and Answers:
1. Why is it important to compare new results to previous studies?
2. What might happen if the results differ significantly from previous studies?
Section 3: Oxygen Utilization
When measuring oxygen affinity at high saturations, scientists must account for the oxygen utilization of red blood cells. This means that as the saturation level increases, the hemoglobin becomes less able to bind to oxygen molecules.
Questions and Answers:
1. What is oxygen utilization?
2. Why is it important to account for oxygen utilization when measuring oxygen affinity at high saturations?
Conclusion:
In this lesson, we learned about the importance of accurate measurements and comparison to previous studies in scientific research. We also explored the process of measuring oxygen affinity using the Radiometer DCA 1 device and how oxygen utilization affects the results. By understanding these concepts, we can apply our knowledge to other areas of science and research.

Lesson: Introduction to Renewable Energy

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts
Renewable energy is energy that comes from natural resources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, and geothermal heat. It is called "renewable" because these resources are replenished naturally and can be used indefinitely without running out. In contrast, non-renewable energy sources like coal, oil, and natural gas are finite and will eventually run out.

## Section 2: Practical Examples
One example of renewable energy is solar power, which harnesses the energy of the sun to generate electricity. Solar panels convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity, which is then converted into alternating current (AC) electricity by an inverter. This AC electricity can then be used to power homes, businesses, and even vehicles.

Another example of renewable energy is wind power, which uses wind turbines to generate electricity. Wind turbines capture the kinetic energy of the wind and use it to spin a generator, which converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy. This electricity can then be fed into the grid and used to power homes and businesses.

## Section 3: Real-World Scenarios
Renewable energy is becoming increasingly important as the world seeks to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels and combat climate change. Many countries have set ambitious targets to transition to 100% renewable energy by 2050 or earlier. For example, Denmark plans to be 100% reliant on renewable energy by 2050, while Costa Rica ran entirely on renewable energy for 300 days in 2017.

## Glossary
- Renewable energy: Energy that comes from natural resources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, and geothermal heat.
- Fossil fuels: Non-renewable energy sources like coal, oil, and natural gas that are finite and will eventually run out.
- Kinetic energy: The energy of motion.
- Direct current (DC) electricity: Electricity that flows in one direction, typically from a power source to a load.
- Alternating current (AC) electricity: Electricity that periodically reverses direction, allowing it to be transmitted over long distances.
- Mechanical energy: The energy of motion and strength.
- Grid: The network of power lines and transformers that transmit electricity from power plants to homes and businesses.

## Conclusion
Renewable energy is becoming increasingly important as the world seeks to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels and combat climate change. By understanding the theoretical concepts, practical examples, and real-world scenarios of renewable energy, we can begin to apply these skills to new problems and contribute to a more sustainable future.

Lesson: Introduction to International Law and the International Criminal Court

### Section 1: Introduction
In this lesson, we will learn about the basics of international law and the International Criminal Court (ICC). We will explore what international law is, how it differs from domestic law, and what the ICC is responsible for. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to understand the role of international law in addressing crimes against humanity and war crimes.

### Section 2: What is International Law?
International law is a set of rules and principles that govern the behavior of countries and their representatives in their dealings with one another. It is a way of regulating relations between nations, much like domestic law regulates the behavior of individuals within a country. However, there are some key differences between international law and domestic law.

Firstly, international law is not enforced by a single government or authority. Instead, it is enforced through a system of treaties, agreements, and conventions that countries sign up to. Secondly, international law applies to all countries, not just those that have signed up to specific treaties or agreements. Finally, international law can be used to resolve disputes between countries, as well as to prosecute individuals for crimes against humanity and war crimes.

### Section 3: The International Criminal Court
The ICC is a court that was established in 2002 to try individuals accused of committing crimes against humanity and war crimes. It is located in The Hague, Netherlands, and is governed by the Rome Statute, an international treaty that has been ratified by 123 countries. The ICC is responsible for investigating and prosecuting individuals who are accused of committing these crimes, regardless of their nationality or where the crimes were committed.

### Section 4: Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes
Crimes against humanity refer to acts that are committed as part of a widespread or systematic attack against a civilian population. Examples of such acts include murder, rape, torture, and persecution. War crimes, on the other hand, refer to acts that are committed during armed conflict and violate the laws of war. Examples of war crimes include killing civilians, destroying civilian infrastructure, and using banned weapons.

### Section 5: Conclusion
In conclusion, international law and the ICC play a crucial role in holding individuals accountable for committing crimes against humanity and war crimes. By understanding the basics of international law and the ICC, we can better appreciate the importance of these institutions in promoting peace and justice around the world.

Lesson: Introduction to CNC Machining

## Chapter 1: What is CNC Machining?

CNC machining is a process that uses computer numerical control (CNC) to operate machine tools. It involves using a computer to control the movement of a cutting tool that removes material from a workpiece. This process can be used to create complex shapes and designs in various materials.

## Chapter 2: How does CNC Machining work?

In CNC machining, the computer program is first created using a CAD/CAM software. The program contains instructions for the machine to follow, such as the type of cutter to use, the direction of the cut, and the depth of the cut. The program is then loaded into the CNC machine's controller, which interprets the instructions and sends electrical signals to the motors that control the machine's movements.

As the machine moves along the workpiece, the cutting tool removes material according to the programmed instructions. The machine can move in three axes - X, Y, and Z - allowing for complex shapes and designs to be created.

## Chapter 3: Types of CNC Machines

There are several types of CNC machines, including:

1. Lathes: These machines rotate the workpiece while a cutting tool moves along it, creating cylindrical shapes.
2. Milling machines: These machines move the cutting tool in multiple directions to create flat or irregularly shaped surfaces.
3. Routers: These machines are similar to milling machines but use a routing bit instead of a milling cutter.
4. Plasma cutters: These machines use a plasma torch to cut through metal materials.

## Chapter 4: Applications of CNC Machining

CNC machining has many applications in various industries, including:

1. Automotive industry: CNC machines are used to create parts for cars, such as engine blocks and transmission cases.
2. Aerospace industry: CNC machines are used to create precision parts for aircraft and rockets.
3. Medical industry: CNC machines are used to create prosthetic limbs and other medical devices.
4. Jewelry industry: CNC machines are used to create intricate designs in precious metals and gemstones.

## Chapter 5: Advantages and Disadvantages of CNC Machining

Advantages of CNC machining include:

1. Precision: CNC machines can create parts with high accuracy and repeatability.
2. Efficiency: CNC machines can work around the clock without getting tired, making them more efficient than manual labor.
3. Cost-effectiveness: Once the initial setup costs are covered, CNC machines can produce parts at a lower cost per unit than manual labor.

Disadvantages of CNC machining include:

1. Initial costs: CNC machines can be expensive to purchase and install.
2. Programming: Creating the CAD/CAM programs can be time-consuming and require specialized knowledge.
3. Maintenance: CNC machines require regular maintenance to keep them running smoothly.

## Chapter 6: Conclusion

CNC machining is a powerful tool that can create complex shapes and designs in various materials. It has many applications in various industries and offers several advantages over manual labor.

Lesson Title: The Rights of a Seller in a Contract of Sale

Overview: In this lesson, we will learn about the rights of a seller in a contract of sale. We will cover the five main rights that a seller has under the law, including the right of lien, right of stoppage in transit, right to re-sell, right to sue the buyer for the price, and right to sue the buyer for non-acceptance.

Section 1: Introduction

In a contract of sale, the seller transfers ownership of goods to the buyer in exchange for payment. However, the seller also has certain rights that protect their interests in the transaction. These rights are outlined in the Indian Sale of Goods Act, 1930.

Section 2: Right of Lien

The first right of a seller is the right of lien. This means that the seller has the right to retain possession of the goods until the price is paid by the buyer. The seller can withhold delivery of the goods until the full contract price has been paid. This right is important because it allows the seller to ensure that they are fully compensated for the goods before releasing them to the buyer.

Section 3: Right of Stoppage in Transit

The second right of a seller is the right of stoppage in transit. This means that the seller has the right to stop the goods in transit to the buyer and retain possession until he has received payment. If the goods are stopped in transit, the seller can demand payment from the buyer before allowing the goods to continue on their journey.

Section 4: Right to Re-Sell

The third right of a seller is the right to re-sell the goods where they are of perishable nature. If the goods are perishable and have not been accepted by the buyer within a reasonable time, the seller has the right to re-sell them to another buyer. This right is important because it allows the seller to minimize their losses if the goods are spoiling or losing value.

Section 5: Right to Sue The Buyer for the Price

The fourth right of a seller is the right to sue the buyer for the contract price. If the property in the goods has passed to the buyer, but the buyer fails to pay the full contract price, the seller has the right to sue the buyer for the amount owed.

Section 6: Right to Sue Buyer for Non-Acceptance

The fifth right of a seller is the right to sue the buyer for non-acceptance. If the buyer does not accept the goods as required under the contract, the seller has the right to sue the buyer for breach of contract.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, the rights of a seller in a contract of sale are essential for protecting their interests in the transaction. By understanding these rights, both buyers and sellers can better navigate the terms of a contract and avoid disputes.

Lesson: Introduction to Economic Sanctions

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts
Economic sanctions are penalties applied by one country or group of countries to another for economic or political reasons. They can take many forms, including trade embargos, financial sanctions, and restrictions on the movement of capital. In this lesson, we will explore the history of economic sanctions, their effectiveness, and the different types of sanctions that can be imposed.

## Section 2: Practical Examples
Let's consider an example of economic sanctions. In 2018, the United States imposed sanctions on Russia for its involvement in the 2016 US presidential election. The sanctions targeted specific individuals and companies, including the Alfa-Bank, which was barred from accessing the US financial system. The sanctions also limited the ability of Russian companies to issue sovereign debt in the US.

## Section 3: Self-Debating Discussions
Debate: Are economic sanctions an effective tool for achieving foreign policy goals?

**Proposition:** Yes, economic sanctions can be an effective tool for achieving foreign policy goals.

**Evidence:** Historical evidence suggests that economic sanctions have been successful in achieving foreign policy goals. For example, economic sanctions were instrumental in ending apartheid in South Africa. Additionally, economic sanctions against Iran led to negotiations over its nuclear program.

**Counterargument:** No, economic sanctions are not always effective. They may cause harm to innocent civilians while failing to achieve the desired policy outcome. For example, economic sanctions against Iraq in the 1990s led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of civilians but did not remove Saddam Hussein from power.

**Conclusion:** The effectiveness of economic sanctions depends on the specific circumstances and goals of the policy. While they can be an effective tool when used strategically and in conjunction with other diplomatic efforts, they must be carefully considered to avoid unintended negative consequences.

## Glossary
- Economic Sanctions: Penalties applied by one country or group of countries to another for economic or political reasons.
- Embargo: A government order that prohibits certain goods from being transported or sold.
- Financial Sanctions: Restrictions on financial transactions between two countries.
- Capital Controls: Measures taken by governments to regulate the movement of capital across borders.

## Conclusion
In this lesson, we explored the history and effectiveness of economic sanctions, as well as the different types of sanctions that can be imposed. We also engaged in a self-debating discussion on whether economic sanctions are an effective tool for achieving foreign policy goals. By understanding the principles behind economic sanctions, we can better evaluate their effectiveness and consider their use in future diplomatic efforts.

Two types of glass strengthening (tempering) are known in the art. The most popular is thermal tempering, which involves heat and quenching. The heat treatment used in thermal tempering is typically over 580 degrees C., and mostly over 600 degrees C. The second type of glass strengthening is known as chemical strengthening (or chemical tempering).
Chemically strengthened glass is a type of glass that has increased strength as a result of a chemical process that is performed after the base glass is made. When broken, it still shatters in long pointed splinters. For this reason, it is often laminated when used in safety glass applications. However, chemically strengthened glass is typically much stronger (e.g., six to eight times stronger) than non-chemically strengthened float glass. The chemical strengthening process by an ion-exchange is often a process by which the metal ions (for example, Na ions) having a smaller radius contained in glass are replaced by ions (for example K ions) having a larger radius contained in the glass to generate a compressive stress layer on a glass surface, and improve the glass strength. A chemical strengthening method is to replace alkali metal ions (typically Li ions and/or Na ions) having a smaller ion radius existing on the glass plate surface with alkali ions (e.g., Na ions and/or K ions for Li ions, or K ions for Na ions) having a larger ion radius by ion exchange at temperatures lower than or equal to a glass transition point. Example chemical strengthening processes are described in, for example and without limitation, U.S. Patent Document Nos. 2014/0302330, 2013/0101798, and application Ser. No. 13/137,696. the disclosures of which are all incorporated herein by reference.
The glass is typically chemically strengthened by a surface finishing process. For instance, glass may be submersed in a bath containing a potassium salt (typically potassium nitrate) at a high temperature such as around 300° C. This causes sodium ions in the glass surface to be replaced by potassium ions from the bath solution. These potassium ions are larger than the sodium ions and therefore wedge into the gaps left by the smaller sodium ions when they migrate to the potassium nitrate solution. This replacement of ions causes the surface of the glass to be in a state of compression and the core in compensating tension.
Another example chemical strengthening process is a multi-stage process in which the glass is first immersed in a sodium nitrate bath at a high temperature such as around 430-450° C., which enriches the surface with sodium ions. This leaves more sodium ions on the glass for the immersion in potassium nitrate to replace with potassium ions. In this way, the use of a sodium nitrate bath increases the potential for surface compression in the finished article. In any event, chemical strengthening results in a strengthening similar to toughened glass. However, the process does not use extreme variations of temperature (e.g., temperatures over 580 or 600 degrees C. are not needed) and therefore chemically strengthened glass has little or no bow or warp, optical distortion or strain pattern.
Conventional float glass often has a composition as follows,
Ingredientwt. %SiO271.18%A12O31.02%Na2O13.52%K2O0.24%CaO8.76%MgO3.99%Fe2O3 (total iron)0.09%SO30.20%
This conventional float glass, before any chemical strengthening, has a strain temperature (log η=14.5) of 519 degrees C., a cool time (secs) of 100.99, a USPXXIII (ml) of 6.14, a glass molar volume (cm3) of 23.67, a Young's modulus (GPa) of 72.2, a shear modulus (GPa) of 29.6, a non-bridging oxygen (NBO) of 17.81, and a %NBO of 29.54.
Unfortunately, it has been found that the above-identified conventional float glass compositions is not well suited for chemical strengthening. Following chemical strengthening, the “depth of layer” in the glass indicates the depth of the compressive stress layer in the glass after the ion exchange of the chemical tempering process. The deeper the layer, the stronger the glass. Thus, a higher “depth of layer” is desirable following chemical strengthening because it provides for better impact resistance and better scratch resistance in chemically strengthened glass (compared to a thinner layer). The “depth of layer” for the above-identified conventional float glass following chemical strengthening is undesirably small/thin, and thus does not provide for a high degree of impact and scratch resistance which may be desirable in certain instances. For example, following a four hour ion-exchange chemical strengthening process at 435 degrees C. which resulted in maximum compressive stress (MPa) of 710.6 MPa, the “depth of layer” of the above-identified conventional float glass was only 10.5 μm. This thickness of the compressive stress layer (“depth of layer”) is undesirable low/thin.
In view of the above, it is apparent that there exists a need in the art for a glass composition which may achieve a larger (deeper) “depth of layer” upon chemical strengthening, and thus improved impact and/or scratch resistance.

Lesson: Glass Strengthening Methods

## Chapter 1: Introduction

Glass strengthening methods are techniques used to increase the durability and strength of glass. In this lesson, we will learn about two common methods of glass strengthening: thermal tempering and chemical strengthening.

## Chapter 2: Thermal Tempering

Thermal tempering is the most popular method of glass strengthening. It involves heating the glass to a temperature above 580°C and then rapidly cooling it down. This rapid cooling creates a surface compression that makes the glass stronger.

## Chapter 3: Chemical Strengthening

Chemical strengthening, also known as chemical tempering, is a process where the glass is immersed in a chemical solution that changes its properties. The glass is typically immersed in a potassium salt solution, which replaces the smaller sodium ions with larger potassium ions. This creates a compressive stress layer on the surface of the glass, making it stronger.

## Chapter 4: Applications

Both thermal tempering and chemical strengthening are used to make glass stronger and more resistant to breakage. Chemically strengthened glass is often used in safety glass applications because it shatters into long pointed splinters, reducing the risk of injury.

## Chapter 5: Conclusion

In conclusion, glass strengthening methods are essential in making glass stronger and more durable. By understanding the processes behind thermal tempering and chemical strengthening, we can better appreciate the science behind these methods and their applications.

Lesson: How to Read and Understand Movie News

Introduction:
Movie news can be exciting and interesting to read, but it can also be confusing if you don't know the industry jargon and abbreviations. In this lesson, we will learn how to read and understand movie news like a pro.

Section 1: Understanding the Basics

- What is a script? A script is a written work that outlines the dialogue and actions of characters in a movie. Screenwriters write scripts, and they are often sold or optioned to studios and producers.

- What does "over-the-hill" mean? It means that someone or something is past their prime and no longer as successful or effective as they once were.

- What does "ground-up reworking" mean? It means that the writer is starting from scratch and rewriting the entire story, instead of just making changes to an existing script.

Section 2: Understanding the Industry Jargon

- What does "producer" mean? A producer is someone who oversees the business and financial aspects of a movie production. They may also be involved in the creative process, but their main responsibility is to ensure the movie is made on time and on budget.

- What does "executive produce" mean? It means that the person is involved in the development and production of the movie, but they may not have as much day-to-day involvement as a producer.

- What does "creative executive" mean? It means that the person is involved in the development and production of the movie, but they may not have as much day-to-day involvement as a producer or executive producer.

Section 3: Practical Examples

Let's look at an example of movie news to see how we can apply what we've learned:

- Title: "Sony Pictures Lands Rights to Stephen King's 'The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon'"

- What does this mean? Sony Pictures has acquired the rights to turn Stephen King's novel "The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon" into a movie.

- Who is involved? Sony Pictures will produce the movie, and Stephen King wrote the book.

- What does "acquire rights" mean? It means that Sony Pictures has obtained the legal right to turn the book into a movie.

Conclusion:
By understanding the basics of the movie industry and some common industry jargon, we can read and understand movie news more easily. This skill can be useful for anyone interested in movies, whether you want to work in the industry or just enjoy reading about it.


text: 06 Jan Giant Cardboard Muskoka Chairs. Posted at 15:59h in Experiential Marketing 0 Comments. We were delighted by the challenge to make a giant cardboard muskoka chair that would fit three people at once, as part of the Humber College student services wing IGNITE’s launch last semester.. Using cardboard we designed and built two cardboard chairs, each 7 feet tall by 5 feet wide, that were able to support over 500+ lbs of weight. Additionally, to allow them to move the chairs around the site, they can assemble and dis-assemble the chairs and carry them the parts between two people. The whole structure is provided by cardboard!. The IGNITE team was very happy with them, and reported that hundreds of students used them all over campus! It is always great to see such a specific vision be realized in cardboard.

Lesson: Introduction to Construction Progress

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts

In this lesson, we will learn about construction progress and the different stages involved in building a structure. Construction progress refers to the process of building a structure from start to finish. It involves several stages, including site preparation, excavation, foundation work, framing, roofing, and finishing.

## Section 2: Questions and Answers

1. What are the different stages involved in construction progress?
2. How does site preparation involve?
3. What is foundation work?
4. What is framing?
5. What is roofing?
6. What is finishing?

## Section 3: Definitions of Purpose

1. Site preparation: This involves clearing the site and removing any obstacles that may hinder construction.
2. Excavation: This involves digging up the ground to create space for the foundation.
3. Foundation work: This involves laying the foundation of the building, which provides support for the structure.
4. Framing: This involves putting together the skeleton of the building, including the walls and roof.
5. Roofing: This involves installing the roof of the building, which protects it from the weather.
6. Finishing: This involves adding the final touches to the building, such as drywall, paint, and fixtures.

## Section 4: Practical Examples Using Mathematical Abstractions and Real-World Scenarios

Let's say we are building a 10-story office building. We would first prepare the site by clearing any trees or debris. Next, we would excavate the land to create space for the foundation. Then, we would lay the foundation and begin framing the building. Once the skeleton of the building is complete, we would install the roof and add the finishing touches.

## Section 5: Increasing Difficulty Level

Let's say we are building a 50-story residential building. We would still follow the same stages of construction progress, but each stage would be more complex due to the increased height and complexity of the building. For example, the foundation work would require more extensive planning and engineering, and the framing would require more precise measurements and calculations.

## Glossary

Site preparation: The process of clearing a site and removing any obstacles that may hinder construction.
Excavation: The process of digging up the ground to create space for the foundation.
Foundation work: The process of laying the foundation of the building, which provides support for the structure.
