33History wars — The History wars are an ongoing public debate in Australia over the interpretation of the history of the European colonisation of Australia, and its impact on Indigenous Australians and Torres Strait Islanders. The debate centres on whether… …
34Soft error — In electronics and computing, an error is a signal or datum which is wrong. Errors may be caused by a defect, usually understood either to be a mistake in design or construction, or a broken component. A soft error is also a signal or datum which …
35Ohmic contact — An ohmic contact is a region on a semiconductor device that has been prepared so that the current voltage (I V) curve of the device is linear and symmetric. If the I V characteristic is non linear and asymmetric, the contact is not ohmic, but is… …
