Morphological And Optical Properties Of Vacuum Evaporated Zno Thin Films, Farzana Chowdhury, S. M. Firoz Hasan, M. Sahabul Alam
Turkish Journal of Physics
ZnO thin films were deposited onto chemically and ultrasonically cleaned glass substrates by thermal evaporation in vacuum (\sim 10^{-6} mbar). The thickness of the films was measured by frequency shift of quartz crystal. The optical properties of the films have been ascertained by UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometry in the photon wavelength range of 300--2500 nm. The effect of substrate temperature on the optical properties of the films has been investigated, where all film thickness was kept fixed at 100 \pm 10 nm. The optical transmittance spectra reveal a maximum transmittance of 88% at room temperature around photon wavelength of 2350 nm. Band …

This paper reports the synthesis of pure and lanthanum (La) doped nanocrystalline CdS semiconducting films on the glass substrate by means of chemical bath deposition (CBD), with Cd(CH_3COO)_2 as Cadmium (Cd) ion source, (NH_2)_2CS as sulphur (S) ion source and Thioglycerol as capping agent. Long, rod like structures is observed in SEM micrographs of the films. XRD studies show the existence of both hexagonal and cubic phases. Increase in FWHM is observed for smaller particle due to nanocrystalline effect. UV-VIS absorption studies show shift of absorption edge towards lower wavelength side. Corresponding change in band gap energy results in shift …
The Composition Dependence Of The Optical Band Gap In Ge Doped Se-Te Glassy Alloy, Mainika Kapoor, Nagesh Thakur
The Composition Dependence Of The Optical Band Gap In Ge Doped Se-Te Glassy Alloy, Mainika Kapoor, Nagesh Thakur
Turkish Journal of Physics
Bulk glasses with the chemical composition (Se_{80}Te_{20})_{100-x}Ge_x (x = 0, 2, 4, 6) have been prepared from high purity constituent elements. Fragments of the bulk glasses are used to deposit thin films by vacuum thermal evaporation and compositional dependence of the optical and physical properties have been studied. It has been found that optical absorption is due to indirect transition and the optical band gap E_g increases with increasing Ge content in Se-Te glassy alloy. The relationship between the E_g and chemical composition is discussed in terms of cohesive energy and co-ordination number.

Semiconducting Properties Of In_3te_4 Crystals: An Experimental Study, Gadelkarim Ata Gamal, Mohamed Ali Abouzied, Mohamud Fouad Sanaa
Turkish Journal of Physics
IndiumTelluride In_3Te_4 crystal was characterized for electrical conductivity, Hall mobility, carrier concentration, and thermoelectric power (TEP) as a function of temperature in the range 202--526 K this was done with the aid of liquid nitrogen which enabled us to detect the intrinsic behavior. The crystals were prepared by a modified vertical Bridgman technique. Throughout these measurements various physical parameters, such as effective mass of charge carriers, carrier mobility, diffusion coefficient, and relaxation time for both majority and minority carriers were found.

Specific Heat Of Ytterbium Iron Garnet Yb_3fe_5o_{12} At Low Temperatures, Abdelmalek Boumali, Oumhani Derar
Turkish Journal of Physics
The state of the Yb^{3+} ion of the ytterbium iron garnet (Yb_3Fe_5O_{12}) is suitable for the development of theoretical models with rather good approximations. Using the theory of two-level paramagnetic ions, the total and magnetic specific heat at low temperatures has been calculated. The influence of tensors g and G on the specific heat of YbIG has been examined. A comparison has been made of our results and those obtained with a model based on of the approximation of Weiss Molecular-Field (WMF) and experimental data.

Equations Of State For Amorphous And Crystalline Nickel By Means Of Molecular Dynamics Method, Soner Özgen, Levent Sonğur, İzzet Kara
Turkish Journal of Physics
There are few theoretical studies on the equation of state (EOS) for amorphous materials while much work has been carried out for crystalline systems. In this study, the EOSs for both crystal- and amorphous-structured nickel are obtained by using an anisotropic molecular dynamics method based on the Voter-Chen formalism of embedded atom method. In order to achieve the EOSs, polynomial curve fitting method has been applied to the data obtained from molecular dynamics simulations carried assuming isothermal and isobaric conditions. Isothermal bulk modulus and their pressure derivatives for both amorphous and crystal structures have also been calculated. The results are …

Characterization Of Analog Modulation Of Algaas Lasers And The Induced Intensity Noise, Moustafa Ahmed, Nour Zaki El-Sayed, Hameeda Ibrahim, Kamal Abdelhady
Turkish Journal of Physics
The dynamics of AlGaAs laser diodes under analog intensity modulation are characterized and the associated intensity noise is evaluated. The study is based on numerical solution of the stochastic rate equations of semiconductor lasers. Based on the shape of the modulated laser signal, the modulation dynamics are classified into eight distinct types. Four types are characterized by continuous periodic signals, and three types have periodic pulsing signals. These signals happen to have period doubling or superposed by sub-peaks from the relaxation oscillations of the laser. The last type is chaos, in which the signal is irregular and non-uniform. The noise …
Slab Waveguide Sensor Based On Amplified Phase Change Due To Multiple Total Internal Reflections, Sofyan A. Taya, Taher M. El-Agez
Slab Waveguide Sensor Based On Amplified Phase Change Due To Multiple Total Internal Reflections, Sofyan A. Taya, Taher M. El-Agez
Turkish Journal of Physics
We present theoretically an optical slab waveguide sensor based on amplified phase change due to multiple total internal reflections (TIRs). Compared with the conventional waveguide sensors, the proposed approach provides higher sensitivity. In this sensor, we adopt the change in the ellipsometric total phase change \Delta as the measuring probe of changes in the refractive index (RI) of the cladding. The change in \Delta is calculated for large number of alternating total reflections. Numerical calculations show that \Delta is strongly dependent on the RI variations of the cladding. Moreover, theoretical simulations show that the resolution of this sensor is predicted …
Monochromatization Effect Kinetic Model For Penning Gas Mixtures Emission Mechanisms, Catalina Ciobotaru, Geavit Musa
Monochromatization Effect Kinetic Model For Penning Gas Mixtures Emission Mechanisms, Catalina Ciobotaru, Geavit Musa
Turkish Journal of Physics
The monochromatization effect (M-effect), which consists in the reduction of an electronegative-electropositive gas mixtures discharge emission spectrum to only a few or a single line, was largely explained in our previous published papers together with their generation mechanisms, namely the polar ion-ion recombination and the energy resonance condition. This paper presents a kinetic model for the M-effect based on the radiative and collisional processes which appear between 1s_2, 1s_3, 1s_4 and 1s_5 Paschen levels, in Penning gas mixtures, where this effect was observed to be the most powerful.

Coupled-Channels Analysis Of K^+ Scattering From ^6li, Ahmed Aly Ebrahim
Turkish Journal of Physics
Differential cross sections for the elastic and inelastic scattering of K^+ at 715 MeV/c from ^6Li are analysed by applying the Watanabe superposition model to the real potential with a phenomenological imaginary potential. The optical potential of ^6Li is calculated in terms of alpha-particle and deuteron or triton and helion optical potentials. The calculated cross sections are consistent with the triton-helion model.

Resonant Electron Transfer And L-Shell Excitation For _{26}Fe^{19+} And _{30}Zn^{23+} Ions, Hassan Ramadan
Turkish Journal of Physics
Resonant transfer and excitation (RTE) involving simultaneous electron capture and projectile L-shell excitation has been calculated for Fe^{19+} and Zn^{23+} ions, in charge states ranging from nitrogen-like to oxygen-like incident on molecular hydrogen over an energy range 0--250 MeV. By the same way the calculations have been performed with helium over an energy range 0--300 MeV. The calculations are carried out using the angular momentum average (AMA) scheme in the isolated resonance approximation (IRA). This method was previously used to calculate RTE cross sections for N-like P^{8+} and Ca^{13+}, where the results are found to agree with the present calculations. …

Nuclear Structure Of Xe-Pt Nuclei In The Framework Of Arm And Odd-Even Staggering, Harish Mohan Mittal, Vidya Devi
Turkish Journal of Physics
The asymmetric rotor model (ARM) of collective rotation is used to search for the correlation between the rotational energy with the asymmetric parameter \gamma_0 for Xe-Pt nuclei. The correspondence of the ratio ROTE/E(2_1^+) vs. R_{4/2}(=E(4_1^+)/E(2_1^+)) and \gamma_0 is used to distinguish between the axially symmetric and triaxial nuclei. The correlation between deformation parameter \beta and \gamma_0 is studied to understand the structure of the nuclei. The \gamma-band energy staggering in low-spin, low-energy spectra of even-even ^{122-124}Xe and ^{124-128}Ba nuclei is also discussed. We have compared our results with experimental data and other theoretical models.

The Impact Of Hyperfine Interaction On The Charge Radius Of Protons, Majid Amirfakhrian
Turkish Journal of Physics
In this paper, the wave function of a Proton has been calculated via solving the Dirac equation for a three-particle system. Then, the charge radius of the proton was measured. Isospin-Isospin interaction was added to the system as a perturbation factor, and the variation of the charge radius of Proton was considered. Finally, the spin-spin and spin-isospin interactions on the charge radius of the Proton were calculated based on this method.
Bianchi-V Cosmological Models With Viscous Fluid And Constant Deceleration Parameter In General Relativity, Sharad Kandalkar, Pramod Khade, Mohini Gaikwad
Bianchi-V Cosmological Models With Viscous Fluid And Constant Deceleration Parameter In General Relativity, Sharad Kandalkar, Pramod Khade, Mohini Gaikwad
Turkish Journal of Physics
In this paper we discuss the variation law for Hubble's parameter, average scale factor in spatially homogenous anisotropic Bianchi Type V space-time that yields a constant value deceleration parameter. Using the law of variation for Hubble's parameter, exact solutions of Einstein's field equations are obtained for Bianchi-V space time filled with viscous fluid in two different cases where the universe exhibits power law and exponential expansion. We investigate a number of solutions with constant and time varying cosmological constant together with variable and constant bulk viscosity. We find that the constant value of deceleration parameter is reasonable for the present …
Symmetry And The Order Of Events In Time. The Asymmetrical Order Of Events In Time In A Reversible Energy Converter, Ben-Zion Ginzburg, Randy Wayne
Symmetry And The Order Of Events In Time. The Asymmetrical Order Of Events In Time In A Reversible Energy Converter, Ben-Zion Ginzburg, Randy Wayne
Turkish Journal of Physics
The positive increase of entropy that occurs in irreversible processes has always served as a criterion for distinguishing the past from the future. The unerring ability of the Second Law of Thermodynamics to predict the order of events in time based on a change of entropy in macroscopic systems has led to the concept of the thermodynamical arrow of time. In this paper we analyze a cyclical reversible energy converter, in which thermal energy is converted into useful work without any net change of entropy. While it is usually assumed that time is an outsider in the equations of reversible …
Symmetry And The Order Of Events In Time. A Proposed Identity Of Negative Mass With Antimatter, Randy Wayne
Symmetry And The Order Of Events In Time. A Proposed Identity Of Negative Mass With Antimatter, Randy Wayne
Turkish Journal of Physics
In another paper in this series, we developed a symmetrical theory of mass which describes how systems of positive mass and negative mass will respond to an input of thermal energy. A system composed of positive mass or negative mass will respond to an input of thermal energy in opposite ways. For example, if a system composed of positive mass expands in response to radiation from a hot body, a system composed of negative mass will contract. Likewise, if the system composed of positive mass contracts when brought in communication with a cold body, a system composed of negative mass …

Thermodynamics Of Liquid Alkali Metals Using Pseudopotential Perturbation Scheme, Jagendra Kamalsinh Baria, Ashvinkumar Ramaniklal Jani
Turkish Journal of Physics
Recently proposed model potential of Baria and Jani is used with the exchange and correlation effect of Sarkar et al. to calculate internal energy (Enthalpy), Entropy and Helmholtz free energy of liquid Na, K, Rb and Cs at various temperatures with the variational approach. The parameter of the potential is determined with the standard zero pressure condition. The structure factor derived by Percus-Yevick solution for hard sphere fluids which is characterized by hard sphere diameter \sigma is used. A good agreement between theoretical investigations and experimental findings has confirmed the ability of the model potential to the liquid alkali metals.

Exactly Solvable Potentials From Decemvirate Power Potential, Nilamoni Saikia
Turkish Journal of Physics
A transformation method is presented which consist of a coordinate transformation and a functional transformation that allow generation of exact analytic bound state solutions of the Schrodinger Green's function equation. The method proposed here, which involves the generation of an exact analytic solution from solvable decemvirate power potential within the framework of Green's functions technique, makes it possible to generate a number of solved quantum systems for original quantum systems with multi-term potentials. The generated quantum systems are in general energy dependent with a single normalized eigenstate. A method has been devised to convert a subset of the generated quantum …

The Influence Of Confinements On The Photon Flux Spectra In Amorphous Silicon Quantum Dots, Moafak Cadim Abdulrida, Nidhal Moosa Abdul-Ameer, Shatha Mohammad Abdul-Hakeem
Turkish Journal of Physics
We have theoretically calculated the photon flux of radiative recombination in amorphous silicon quantum dots (a-SiQDs) at room temperature. These quantum dots have been ranged in their diameter 1 to 4 nm. The convolution of probability density function of deepest energy states of conduction P_C(E) and valence P_V(E) bands within the capture volume was adopted. The behavior of this function can be classified into four regions according to the quantum dot size. The effect of spatial and quantum confinements on the peak value of photon flux must be taken into account. We found that a blue shift is classified by …

Te Surface Waves In Dielectric Slab Sandwiched Between Lhm Slabs, Ass'ad I. Ass'ad, Hassan S. Ashour
Turkish Journal of Physics
In this work, the dispersion relation for TE surface waves has been derived for a slab waveguide constructed from a dielectric material slab sandwiched between two thick layers of left-handed material (LHM). The dispersion relation and the power flow were numerically solved for a given set of parameters: the structural factor, dielectric slab thickness, and the operating frequency on the effective refractive index and power flow. We found that the wave effective refractive index decreases with thickness increase as well as increase in frequency. We found that the effective refractive index increases slightly with increase of structural factor. Also, the …

Dynamics And Noise Of Fiber-Grating Semiconductor Lasers Affected By The Line-Width Enhancement Factor, Salah Abdulrhmann
Turkish Journal of Physics
This paper numerically investigates the effect of the line-width enhancement factor on the dynamics and the intensity noise of InGaAs/InP lasers pumping in the wavelength of 980 nm at the strong optical feedback limit. The investigation is performed based on an improved time-delay rate equation model of a single-mode laser. The analyses are performed in terms of the temporal trajectory of the laser intensity, bifurcation diagram, relative intensity noise and injection current. The simulation results indicate that the laser, under strong optical feedback, mainly operates in CW, pulsation or chaos operation depending on the line-width enhancement factor and injection current …
Determination Of Barrier Height Temperature Coefficient By Norde's Method In Ideal Co/N-Gaas Schottky Contacts, Abdulmeci̇t Turut
Determination Of Barrier Height Temperature Coefficient By Norde's Method In Ideal Co/N-Gaas Schottky Contacts, Abdulmeci̇t Turut
Turkish Journal of Physics
We have formed the ideal Co/n-GaAs Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) by magnetron DC sputtering. The experimental current-voltage data of the Co/n-GaAs SBD are almost independent of the sample temperature and quite well obey the thermionic emission model from 100 K to 320 K. We have showed that the temperature coefficient of the barrier height can be determined using Norde's method instead of the temperature-dependent capacitance-voltage measurements or the flat-band barrier height values because the thermionic emission current dominates in the ideal SBDs. We have obtained a barrier height temperature coefficient value of \alpha = 0.41 meV/K for Co/n-GaAs SBDs used …

Structure And Electrical Properties Of Lanthanum Doped Bi_2sr_2ca_{2-X}La_Xcu_3o_{10+ \Delta} Superconductor, Kareem Jasim
Turkish Journal of Physics
In this work we studied the effect of La-doping on phase purity, crystal structure and electrical resistivity of Bi_2Sr_2Ca_2Cu_3O_{10+\delta} superconductor, synthesized by usual solid state reaction method. The X-ray florescence (XRF) show the stoichiometry of samples and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed the change of structure from orthorhombic to tetragonal by increasing La doping. It was found that the change of lanthanum concentrations of all our samples produce a change in the oxygen content, the ratio of lattice parameters c/a and mass density \rho_m. Electrical resistivity, using the four-probe technique, was used to find the critical temperature T_c and to …

Turkish Journal of Physics
Nanocrystalline amorphous ribbons of composition Fe_{70.5}Cr_3Cu_1Nb_3Si_{13.5}B_9 prepared by rapid solidification technique have been studied in the present work. Amorphicity of the ribbons has been confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Crystallization temperatures were identified by X-ray diffraction and crystallization products were analyzed by XRD. When annealed below the crystallization temperature, i.e. when the sample is in amorphous state, temperature dependence of permeability curves were characterized by sharp increase of permeability and subsequent fall to lower value near ferro-paramagnetic transition temperature, which is typical Hopkinson effect for soft ferromagnetic single phase material. Under devitrification, when the sample is in a two phase state, …

Effect Of Zinc Incorporation On The Density Of Defect States In A-Se_{85}Te_{15} Glassy Alloy, Shikha Shukla, Santosh Kumar
Turkish Journal of Physics
Present work incorporates the study of d.c. conductivity measurements at high electric fields in vacuum evaporated thin films of Se_{85-x}Te_{15}Zn_x (x = 0, 2, 4, 6 and 10) glassy alloys. Current-Voltage (I-V) characteristics have been measured at various fixed temperatures. In these samples, at low electric fields, ohmic behavior is observed. However, at high electric fields (E \sim 10^4 V/cm), non ohmic behavior is observed. An analysis of the experimental data confirms the presence of space charge limited conduction (SCLC) in the glassy materials studied in the present case. From the fitting of the data to the theory of SCLC, …
A Fresh Look At Thermal Field Emission From Tungsten Tip, Ahmed Abdurrahman Ahmed Al-Tabbakh
A Fresh Look At Thermal Field Emission From Tungsten Tip, Ahmed Abdurrahman Ahmed Al-Tabbakh
Turkish Journal of Physics
Electron emission from clean tungsten tips has been investigated at different temperatures and applied electric field. Emission mechanism is analyzed on the basis of the Fowler-Nordheim (FN) model and a parameter extraction model based on elimination of field enhancement factor. The suggested extraction model of the physical and geometrical parameters is found fairly adequate to resolving the apparently confusing behavior of these parameters and shedding light on the emission mechanism. The observed linear FN plots at low temperatures confirm the predominating effect of the applied field on the electron emission. At elevated temperatures, emission is found to fall in the …

Estimation Of Radiological Risk Due To Concentration Of ^{238}U, ^{226}Ra, ^{232}Th And ^{40}K In Soils Of Different Geological Origins In Northern India, Rohit Mehra, Manmohan Singh
Turkish Journal of Physics
Radioactivity of nuclides ^{238}U, ^{226}Ra, ^{232}Th and ^{40}K was measured in soil by \gamma-ray spectrometry using a HPGe detector. A criterion was set in order to analyse soil samples from plain, semi-hilly and hilly areas in northern India. More than three \gamma-ray energy peaks were used for the determination of ^{226}Ra and ^{232}Th activity concentrations to obtain more accurate results. Some of these peaks have interfering energies, which was caused by the limited resolution of the detector, but they were resolved theoretically and used in the analysis because of their significance in reducing the random error to its minimum level. …
