For both Si and GaAs the maximum valence band energy of an electron occurs at Â¯p= 0. The minimum energy of the conduction band electron in GaAs also occurs for Â¯p= 0, hence a transition across the bandgap only requires an E g energy absorbtion or emission. Because of this, GaAs is called a direct semi-conductor.

A Brooklyn candy shop owner by the name of Morris Michtom saw the cartoon and had an idea. He and his wife Rose were also makers of stuffed animals, and Michtom decided to create a stuffed toy bear and dedicate it to the president who refused to shoot a bear. He called it 'Teddy's Bear'. After receiving Roosevelt's permission to use his name, Michtom mass produced the toy bears which were so popular that he soon founded the Ideal Toy Company. To this day the Teddy Bear has worldwide popularity and its origin can be traced back to Theodore's fateful hunting trip in 1902.
