Abstract

Contents: A review is presented of a theoretical study on the feasibility of development of microminiature electronics components consisting of individual atoms and molecules; A new mechanism for indirect optical transitions in semiconductors is described in which emission or absorption of photons takes place as a result of interaction with free carriers; A proposal has been made that the hitherto ground-based technique of twilight sounding of the atmosphere be conducted from satellites as a means both of supplementing ground data and obtaining information on other planetary atmospheres; Continuation of studies in the field of network-structured silicones with heteroatoms introduced into the polymer, as well as further attempts in the study of polybenzimidazoles and polyoxazoles, are reported. A paper concerning the effect of polyconjugation on thermal stability is mentioned; Recent Soviet discussions on airships reflect renewed interest in the development of large dirigibles as a versatile, economical, and safe means of transportation; New compact antenna; Crystal structure of lanthanum ditelluride; and research in the field of oriented glass-reinforced plastics.
