    Description: The Massachusetts Institute of Technology Integrated Global System Model (IGSM) is designed for analyzing the global environmental changes that may result from anthropogenic causes, quantifying the uncertainties associated with the projected changes, and assessing the costs and environmental effectiveness of proposed policies to mitigate climate risk. The IGSM consists of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Earth System Model (MESM) of intermediate complexity and the Economic Projections and Policy Analysis model. This paper documents the current version of the MESM, which includes a two‐dimensional (zonally averaged) atmospheric model with interactive chemistry coupled to the zonally averaged version of Global Land System model and an anomaly‐diffusing ocean model.

    Notes: The growth and electrical characterization of Si delta-doped GaInP grown by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition are reported in this article. It was found that the sheet carrier density saturated as a function of doping time or flow rate. Because of the limitations of Hall-effect measurements, the saturation was explained as the result of electron population in satellite L valley. The mobility enhancement was observed for the delta-doped structure with an enhancement factor of 2–3. A sharp capacitance–voltage profile with a full width at half-maximum of 30 A(ring) was obtained. Depletion-mode Si delta-doped GaInP field-effect transistors with a gate length of 2 μm and gate width of 50 μm were fabricated and showed good device pinch-off characteristics. The extrinsic maximum transconductance of 92 mS/mm was obtained and a broad plateau transconductance profile was observed to confirm the electron confinement in the V-shape potential well of a delta-doped GaInP layer. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The use of NiAl seedlayer before depositing the underlayer on a (nontextured) polished substrate was studied. Same sputtering conditions were used on a (circumferentially) textured substrate for the purpose of comparison. The static magnetic properties measured by the vibrating sample magnetometer show very close Hc, Mrδ, and S* between them; and the magnetic recording performances measured by the Guzik tester show they are comparable. The "twice around modulation" verified by signal envelope test disappears on both of them. From this result, it is believed that the circumferential texturing is probably no longer needed when the NiAl seedlayer is added before depositing the underlayer. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
