Ac Conductivity And Dielectric Study Of Chalcogenide Glasses Of Se-Te-Ge System, Fathy Salman Jan 2004

Ac Conductivity And Dielectric Study Of Chalcogenide Glasses Of Se-Te-Ge System, Fathy Salman

Turkish Journal of Physics

The ac conductivity and dielectric properties of glassy system Se_{x}Te_{79 - x}Ge_{21}, with x = 11, 14, 17 at.%, has been studied at temperatures 300 to 450 K and over a wide range of frequencies (50 Hz to 500 kHz). Experimental results indicate that the ac conductivity and the dielectric constants depend on temperature, frequency and Se content. The conductivity as a function of frequency exhibited two components: dc conductivity \sigma _{dc}, and ac conductivity \sigma _{ac}, where \sigma _{ac} \sim \omega ^{s}. The mechanism of ac conductivity can be reasonably interpreted in terms of the correlated barrier hopping model …


Raman Scattering In Layered Cdingas_4, Aydin Kulibekov Jan 2004

Raman Scattering In Layered Cdingas_4, Aydin Kulibekov

Turkish Journal of Physics

Raman scattering spectra of CdInGaS_4 crystals grown by the chemical transport method were measured at room and liquid-nitrogen temperatures. Band pairs at 29-38, 43-48 and 60-65 cm^{-1} are reported for the first time. The origin of these bands is attributed to the Davydov doublets, arising due to a small interlayer interaction. Seventeen bands observed in the Raman spectra are assigned to normal modes on the basis of the C_{3v}^1 space group. This modification contains two layers per unit cell and do not have inversion symmetry. It is shown that the crystals grown from the vapor phase and by the Bridgman …

Turkish Journal of Physics

Eigenvalues and eigenfunction of two-boson 2 \times 2 Hamiltonians in the framework of the superalgebra osp(2,1) are determined by presenting a similarity transformation. The Hamiltonians include two bosons and one fermion have been transformed in the form of the one variable differential equations and the conditions for its solvability have been discussed. It is observed that the Hamiltonians of the various physical systems can be written in terms of the generators of the osp(2,1) superalgebra and under some certain conditions their eigenstates can exactly be obtained. In particular, the procedure given here is useful in determining eigenstates of the Jaynes-Cummings …


Analysis Of One-Nucleon Transfer Cross-Sections, A. K. A. R. Al-Farra Jan 2004

Analysis Of One-Nucleon Transfer Cross-Sections, A. K. A. R. Al-Farra

Turkish Journal of Physics

The angular distributions of ^{26}Mg(^3H,^2H)^{27}Mg and ^{30}Si(^3H,^2H)^{31}Si reactions have been successfully studied using distorted wave Born approximation (DWBA) calculations. The optical model potentials are taken to have Woods-Saxon, parity and spin-orbit interactions. The present analysis gives a satisfactory fit to the forward angle data but grossly over estimates the cross-sections in the backward regions. The spin-orbit potential provides the best description of the experimental data and is found to be necessary to account for the large-angle cross sections. The obtained values of the extracted spectroscopic factors are reasonable.

Electrical Properties Of Hydrogen Transport Vpe Grown N-Cdte Epilayers On Znte/Gaas, Murat Bayhan

Turkish Journal of Physics

Electrical characterisation of n-CdTe epilayers grown by hydrogen transport vapour phase epitaxy (H_2T-VPE) on insulating ZnTe/(100)GaAs substrates through the temperature dependent Hall measurements is reported. Double-crystal X-ray diffraction assessments indicate the material high crystalline quality. Samples grown at temperatures, T_G < 650 °C were p-type, but appeared to be n-type for the temperatures above T_G > 650 °C. Hall measurements performed on n-type samples of different thicknesses grown at T_G = 764 °C showed room temperature carrier densities in the range of 10^{11}-10^{14} cm^{-3}. The electron density and Hall mobility characteristics may be in principle well explained with a two-level affective model. The model of scattering by lattice and ionised impurity were found to be limiting …

Turkish Journal of Physics

We study the variation of chemical potential in a two dimensional electron gas in a uniform magnetic field as a function of temperature and level-broadening parameter. Schrödinger and Poisson equations are solved self-consistently for a two dimensional electron gas formed in a Ga_xAl_{1-x}As/GaAs quantum well, to numerically determine the potential profile, empty or occupied energy sub-bands, the wavefunctions and electron concentrations corresponding to each sub-band at various temperatures. Then assuming that the electron concentration is not altered, the variation of chemical potential with respect to both temperature and energy level-broadening parameter is studied under a uniform and constant magnetic field. …

Effect Of Iron Concentrations On Some Physical Properties Of The System Li_{0.5}Fe_{X}Ga_{2.5 - X}O_{4}, Abd El-Raouf Tawfik, N. Tashtoush, O.M. Hemeda

Turkish Journal of Physics

A series of Li_{0.5} Fe_{x} Ga_{2.5 - x} O_{4} systems were prepared for x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1 by the general ceramic method. X-ray diffraction showed that all compositions have single phase Spinel cubic structure. The lattice parameter increased with enhancing iron concentration. The thermoelectric coefficient decreased with increasing x, and the majority carriers are holes. The increase of the jump length of hole increased the electrical conductivity. Jump-length increased with iron concentration and the rate of jumping gave rise to the electrical conductivity. The concentration of Fe^{3 +} ions in Lithium gallate is important, for such …


Quantum Statistical Entropy Of Sen Black Hole, Zhao Ren, Wu Yueqin, Zhang Lichun Jan 2004

Quantum Statistical Entropy Of Sen Black Hole, Zhao Ren, Wu Yueqin, Zhang Lichun

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this paper, by using quantum statistical methods, we directly obtain the partition function of Bose field and Fermi field on the background of the axisymmetrical Sen black hole. The difficult-to-solve wave equation is avoided. Then via the improved brick-wall method and membrane model, we calculate the entropy of Bose field and Fermi field of the black hole. We find that the entropy of the black hole is proportional to the area of the horizon. In our results, we do not encounter the left out term nor the divergent logarithmic term that appears in the original brick-wall method. The question …

The particle size of the given samples was measured from the Scherer equation and a correlation was found between particle size, and structural and magnetic properties. The XRF confirmed the presence of …


The Normal And Inverted Meyer-Neldel Rule In The Ac Conductivity, Fouad Abdel-Wahab Jan 2004

The Normal And Inverted Meyer-Neldel Rule In The Ac Conductivity, Fouad Abdel-Wahab

Turkish Journal of Physics

Recently, a new approach has been proposed for the correlated barrier hopping (CBH) model where the ac relaxation time is thought to obey the Meyer-Neldel (MN) rule. This approach gives quantitative agreement with some reliable published experimental data. We report on an experiment involving the characterization of the ac conductivity of Se-Te thin films over a wide range of frequencies and temperatures, carried out in order to confirm applicability of the MN rule to the ac conductivity. In addition to the normal MN rule, the inverted MN rule was observed.

Design And Preparation Of Antireflection And Reflection Optical Coatings, Özlem Duyar, H. Zafer Durusoy

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this study, reflective and antireflective coatings were designed and simulated. Optical transmission and reflection values were deduced with a matrix formulation via a personal computer. It was found that the number of layers affects the optical performance. The width of the high-reflectance region in the reflectance curves decreases, while its height increases with the increasing number of layers for the reflective coating design. The antireflection coatings transmit about 99.89% in a broad high-pass band at the central wavelength of \lambda_{0} = 450 nm. In addition, simulated Fabry-Perot filters result in a single sharp transmittance peak at the desired central …

Self Ionization Probabilities Following De-Excitation Decay Of K-Shell Vacancy In Atoms Z = 10--80, Adel M. El-Shemi

Turkish Journal of Physics

The average number of ejected electrons and the probability of ion charge state distributions following K-shell ionization in atoms from Z = 10 to Z = 80 were calculated. Monte Carlo simulation technique was used to simulate all possible pathways of radiative and non-radiative transitions to fill the inner-shell ionization in excited atoms. The radiative and non-radiative branching ratios were calculated from Multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) and Dirac-Fock-Slater (DFS) wave functions. The average number of ejected electrons in atoms with Z = 10 is about two, because the non-radiative transitions exceed radiative transitions by 98\%. The mean number of ejected electrons …

Comparative Study Of First Two Harmonics In Cosmic Ray Intensity For The Period 1964-95, Rekha Agarwal Mishra, Rajesh K. Mishra

Turkish Journal of Physics

The Deep River neutron monitor data has been harmonically analyzed for the period 1964--95 covering three solar cycles 20, 21 and 22, looking for a long term trend of the diurnal and semi-diurnal anisotropies of cosmic ray intensity on geomagnetically 60 quiet days. The amplitude of both the harmonics remains statistically constant during 1964-70. The amplitudes of the first harmonic is found to be low during 1965, 1967, 1976-77, 1986-87, 1991, 1993 and 1995. The amplitude of diurnal anisotropy acquired exceptionally large values in 1985, whereas semi-diurnal anisotropy acquired large values in 1974-75 and in 1984, which coincided with epochs …


Determination Of The Rotational Constant A_0 And The Bending Angle Cnc For Ch_3 Nc And Ch_3 ^{15}Nc Molecules, Mohammad Al-Share Jan 2004

Determination Of The Rotational Constant A_0 And The Bending Angle Cnc For Ch_3 Nc And Ch_3 ^{15}Nc Molecules, Mohammad Al-Share

Turkish Journal of Physics

The rotational constant A_0 for the ground state of CH_3 NC and CH_3 ^{15}NC isotopomers is calculated using a technique which was used earlier for CH_3CCH [9], CH_3CN [10] and SiH_3CCH [11]. This technique is based on calculating the moment of inertia tensors in the bent configuration due to the \nu_8 vibrational state, which is associated with the CNC bending vibration. These values of the moments of inertia are fitted with the values calculated from the rotational constant B_V, found experimentally by measuring the rotational frequencies in the microwave and infrared regions. From the fitting, the rotational constant A_0, the …

Effect Of Development Time On Polymer Phase Separation In A Pmma Resist, Mohammad Naeem Khalid, Shazia Yasin, Mohammad Riaz Khan Jan 2004

Effect Of Development Time On Polymer Phase Separation In A Pmma Resist, Mohammad Naeem Khalid, Shazia Yasin, Mohammad Riaz Khan

Turkish Journal of Physics

Developer composition type and development technique are known to influence surface and edge roughness in polymethylemethacrylate (PMMA); and it is during development, we believe, that the result is most influenced by the phase separation into polymer-rich and polymer-poor regions. This polymer phase separation is more prominent in a weaker developer and low temperature. In this paper, we investigate the effect of development time on the extent of polymer phase separation in an exposed PMMA developed in a standard developer i.e. 1:3 MIBK:IPA at 20 °C and rinsed in pure IPA for 30 sec. The polymer phase separation is found to …

The Zero Position Of The Forward-Backward Asymmetry In The B \Rightarrow K\Ell^+\Ell^- Decay With New Physics Effects, Altuğ Arda

Turkish Journal of Physics

Using the most general model-independent effective Hamiltonian comprising local four-Fermi operators (scalar, vector, and tensor operators), we study the sensitivity of the zero position of the lepton asymmetry to the new operators beyond the Standard Model (SM) in the B \rightarrow K\ell^+\ell^- decay. It is found that among all operators, only the scalar and tensor operators contribute to the forward-backward asymmetry, in which case the forward-backward asymmetry has a non-vanishing value.

Simulation Of Millimeter-Wave Gunn Oscillations In Gallium Nitride, Cem Sevi̇k, Ceyhun Bulutay

Turkish Journal of Physics

High field transport in wide bandgap semiconductors like GaN is of great technological importance. The negative differential mobility regime at high fields, under suitable conditions, can lead to millimeter-wave Gunn oscillations. Using extensive simulation based an ensemble Monte Carlo technique, the prospects of GaN Gunn diodes are theoretically investigated. The possibility of operating these Gunn diodes at their higher harmonic modes are explored. The main finding of this research is that the carrier dynamics in GaN can be tailored by an optimum choice of doping profile, temperature and bias conditions so that the efficiency of higher harmonic Gunn oscillations can …


Structural Characterization And Magnetization Of Mg_{0.5}Cu_{0.5}Y_{X}Fe_{2-X}O_4 Ferrites, Mansour Al-Haj Jan 2004

Structural Characterization And Magnetization Of Mg_{0.5}Cu_{0.5}Y_{X}Fe_{2-X}O_4 Ferrites, Mansour Al-Haj

Turkish Journal of Physics

Mg_{0.5}Cu_{0.5}Y_xFe_{2-x}O_4 ferrites were prepared by the solid state reaction method and were characterized by X-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements. A single spinel phase was obtained in the range 0 \le x \le 0.08. The lattice parameter was found to increase with the increase of x except at x = 0.08, which may indicate a distortion in the spinel lattice. The saturation magnetization was found to decrease with increasing x due to replacement of the magnetic Fe^{3+} ions by the nonmagnetic Y^{3+} ions.
