The Gap Year The “gap year” has been a common rite of passage in many foreign countries for decades, but it has now started to gain significant steam here in America as told by Danielle Wood, a parent from Today’s Parenting.

damage in the neighboring mutant glia, which facilitates the initiation and progression of the disease44,45. Further in vivo studies are required to distinguish between these possible mechanisms. Toward this end, we are currently generating mouse models in which MeCP2-null astrocytes are produced in a background of wild-type neurons. Preliminary findings suggest that the selective loss of MeCP2 in astrocytes elicits, at least in part, an RTT-like phenotype neurons stimulate damaging responses from

CHAPTER 3 Elements of solid state physics • Semiconductors, insulators and metals • Semiconductors • Insulators • Metals Prof. Dr. Beşire GÖNÜL Semiconductors, Insulators and Metals The electrical properties of metals and insulators are well known to all of us. Everyday experience has already taught us a lot about the electrical properties of metals and insulators. But the same cannot be said about “semiconductors”. What happens when we connect a battery to a piece of a silicon;

similar properties to inorganic semiconductors with hole and electron conduction layer and a band gap.4 Organic semiconductors differ from other organic material in that the molecules that they are made of have π conjugate bonds which allow electrons to move via π-electron cloud overlaps. Conduction mechanisms for organic semiconductor are mainly through tunneling, hopping between localized states, mobility gaps, and phononassisted hopping.5 Like inorganic semiconductors, organic semiconductors can be doped
