This is because every person goes through a different experience. Some light on the gap year industry has also been shed and it has been established that the gap year industry needs to be regulated. Considering the increasing popularity of gap years, it has been

abstract Photonic crystal is a composite dielectric with periodic modulation of refractive index that brings about unique photonic band-gap effect by which light could be totally reflected on the surface of such material regardless of any incident angle or mode. Such bandgap effect could be understood by investigating the optical performance of photonic crystals. In this paper, photonic bandgap calculations are performed for two dimensional photonic crystals using matlab. Plane wave expansion

production for Gap Inc. Jeans, from the raw material all the way through to the consumer as an end product. The first stage is the supply chain for the production of jeans is to source cotton. Gap has a sustainability and environmental issue when sourcing cotton. Gap Inc. scored a 0.5 out of a scale of 0 to 19.5 on cotton ranking, conducted by Rank a Brand. Which assessed “their cotton policy, sourcing and traceability based on publicly available information”. Besides the sustainability concern, gap has an

when thinking of using black phosphorus as a semiconductor, the cost, if large-scale synthesis is possible while to being to complicated or expensive. Black Phosphorus has the potential to be a great semiconductor because of its large tunable band gap. These are qualities that are wanted for semiconductors however there needs to be further studies regarding black phosphorus to gain a better understanding. Black phosphorus has many benefits and flaws compared

expected to go right out of high school, but what if we were not as strict and more lenient.
