In this work As doped polysilicon was deposited onto (100) silicon wafers by APCVD at 660°C from a silane-arsine mixture, followed by a ten minute anneal at 1000°C, and in one case a further ten minute anneal at 700°C. Specimens for TEM and STEM analysis were prepared by chemical polishing. The microstructure, which is unchanged by the final 700°C anneal,is shown in Figure 1. It consists of numerous randomly oriented grains many of which contain twins.X-ray analysis was carried out in a VG HB5 STEM. As K α x-ray counts were collected from STEM scans across grain and twin boundaries, Figures 2-4. The incident beam size was about 1.5nm in diameter, and each of the 20 channels in the plots was sampled from a 1.6nm length of the approximately 30nm line scan across the boundary. The bright field image profile along the scanned line was monitored during the analysis to allow correlation between the image and the x-ray signal.

Abstract. TV news are essentially cultural phenomena. Previous research suggests that the often-overlooked formal and implicit characteristics of newscasts may be systematically related to culture-specific characteristics. Investigating these characteristics by means of a frame-by-frame content analysis is identified as a particularly promising methodological approach. To examine the relationship between culture and selected formal characteristics of newscasts, we present an explorative study that compares material from the USA, the Arab world, and Germany. Results indicate that there are many significant differences, some of which are in line with expectations derived from cultural specifics. Specifically, we argue that the number of persons presented as well as the context in which they are presented can be interpreted as indicators of Individualism/Collectivism. The conclusions underline the validity of the chosen methodological approach, but also demonstrate the need for more comprehensive and theory-driven category schemes.

Abstract. The current study examines the item and scalar equivalence of an abbreviated school-based universal screener that was cross-culturally translated and adapted from English into German. The instrument was designed to assess student behavior problems that impact classroom learning. Participants were 1,346 K-6 grade students from the US (n = 390, Mage = 9.23, 38.5% female) and Germany (n = 956, Mage = 8.04, 40.1% female). Measurement invariance was tested by multigroup confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) across students from the US and Germany. Results support full scalar invariance between students from the US and Germany (df = 266, χ2 = 790.141, Δχ2 = 6.9, p < .001, CFI = 0.976, ΔCFI = 0.000, RMSEA = 0.052, ΔRMSEA = −0.003) indicating that the factor structure, the factor loadings, and the item thresholds are comparable across samples. This finding implies that a full cross-cultural comparison including latent factor means and structural coefficients between the US and the German version of the abbreviated screener is possible. Therefore, the tool can be used in German schools as well as for cross-cultural research purposes between the US and Germany.
