Significant progress has been made in nanophotonics and the use of nanostructured materials for optoelectronic devices, including light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes, which have recently attracted considerable attention due to their unique geometry. Nanostructures in small dimensions, comprising nanowires, nanotubes, and nanoparticles, etc, . can be perfectly integrated into a variety of technological platforms, offering novel physical and chemical properties for high-performance, light-emitting devices. This Special Issue aims to present the most recent advances in the field of nanophotonics, which focuses on LEDs and laser diodes. We invite contributions of original research articles, as well as review articles that are aligned to the following topics that include, but are not limited to, thetheoretical calculation, synthesis, characterization, and application of such novel nanostructures for light-emitting devices. The application of nanostructured light-emitters in general lighting,… Read More

Night in the Dogs Head is a historically-based novel of courage and sacrifice. American soldiers are committed to a war half-way around the world to preserve a nation from a takeover by a socialist tyrant. The policy that sent Americans to Asian battlefields was subsequently repudiated. For the next three years US Forces fought and died in a war their country no longer wanted to win. While American forces consistently won their battles and inflicted appalling casualties on their foe, a poorly informed and sensation-seeking media mislead the American public, conflicted politicians turned against the war, and the US submitted to a third-rate Asian nation.The novel is set in the political and military affairs of the time. It realistically presents the courage and dedication, the successes and the failures of the men who fought - not for principal, but to survive a war their nation didnt want to win. Friend and foe alike are followed to reveal who they were, how and why they fought. It is a story of the… Read More

Sam and Grace never dreamed that the happy news of their engagement would stir up such outright interference-from a pompous aunt, an overeager sister, and a mysterious stranger! On top of that, one of them has a secret that won't stay buried, and it's causing second thoughts in the other. With all of this opposition swirling around them, the two forge their own path of discovery while parents, the officiating minister, and a day visitor who's in town for a football game each impart needed counsel.If you enjoyed Joan Ryan's mountainous misadventures in Tennessee (A Stranger's Promise), don't miss this sequel, which introduces Joan's kids and their friends back home in Georgia. And there's a special perk here for Jane Austen fans...some in this new cast of characters can't seem to stop quoting Pride and Prejudice!

A YOUNG BOY'S JOURNEY THROUGH THE LAND OF "NOs" ------- "NO!" was the answer given to everything and everyone the little boy encountered. Not even his loving mother would be able to sway him into a cooperative "YES." As time went on, the frustration of losing friends and becoming more isolated in his own "No Man's Land" caused the little boy to grow lonelier and sadder each day. In a story that may not be too uncommon, Sherilyn Fenn sensitively helps explore a seemingly troubled boy's life and how, in his great despair, he copes with being alone. She seeks to reveal how the smallest of adjustments in perception change and uplift one's life. The lesson of No Man's Land will ring true in the hearts of parents and children alike. So simple a lesson, yet so vast.

Ohne zu viel verraten zu wollen kann man allen Fans der Story um Phil, Katy, Pete und Victor versprechen, dass sie wieder genau so nahe dran sein werden am Geschehen um die Familie van Pelt und all den Dingen, die den Helden widerfahren, wie im ersten Band. Phil ist unterwegs in Amerika, um sich einen Traum zu erfüllen. Katy tritt die Nachfolge an von Isaac Blunt. Pete tastet sich weiter heran an seinen Traum, als Querie wieder auf dem Bike zu sitzen und Victor ist eigentlich tot. Mit In unseren Seelen der Schmerz erscheint Band II der Erzählung um den van Pelt Clan. Sie schließt direkt an die Geschehnisse aus Band I an und erzählt vom Werdegang der Figuren in den Jahren 2019 bis 2021. Wir erfahren nicht nur, was den Protagonisten in dieser Zeit alles widerfährt, sondern rekapitulieren auch die Umstände, unter denen das… Read More
