Structure, Stability And Vibrational Properties Of Cdse Wurtzite Molecules And Nanocrystals: A Dft Study, Mudar A. Abdulsattar, Hayder M. Abduljalil, Hussein Hakim Abed

Karbala International Journal of Modern Science

Bare and hydrogen passivated CdSe wurtzite molecules and nanostructures are investigated. The investigation is performed using wurtzoid structures that represent the wurtzite structure at the molecular and nanoscale region. The results show that the energy gap of bare and hydrogen passivated CdSe molecules is higher than and converges to the experimental bulk energy gap. Vibrational analysis of wurtzoid molecules shows that the experimental longitudinal optical mode is in between bare and hydrogen passivated CdSe molecules and very near to bare molecules. The stability of wurtzoid molecules against transition to CdSe diamondoids and cuboids that represent the molecular scale of diamond …


A Brief Review Of Modern Uses Of Scattering Techniques, Daniel M. Wade, Dereth J. Drake Jun 2019

A Brief Review Of Modern Uses Of Scattering Techniques, Daniel M. Wade, Dereth J. Drake

Georgia Journal of Science

Thomson, Rayleigh, Mie, and Raman scattering are commonly used in several disciplines in science and engineering. The techniques involve the scattering of electromagnetic radiation or particles in a sample. This paper provides a brief history for each scattering method, describes the traditional laboratory approach for implementation, and discusses current uses and variations of these four techniques.

Measurement Of Solar Spectral Irradiance And Surface Ozone At Carrollton, Georgia, Usa, During The Great American Eclipse On 21 August 2017, Kirthi Tennakone, L Ajith Desilva, Charles A. Zander*, Shea Rose, Austin B. Kerlin

Georgia Journal of Science

Measurements conducted at the University of West Georgia, Carrollton, Georgia, during the time of the solar eclipse of 21st August 2017 demonstrated that the integrated spectral irradiance in defined wavelength ranges in the ultraviolet and visible calculated as a fraction of the total irradiance reached a minimum at maximum obscuration of the Sun, whereas in an infrared range it was maximum. The method of analysis adopted supports the view that the changes in spectral irradiance during highly obscured partial phases is a consequence of limb darkening. In a surface ozone measurement, a minimum in ozone concentration occurred 30 +_ …
