Ultraviolet Stimulated Thermoluminescent Response Characteristics Of Aluminum Oxide, Edward Ryan Iii
Ultraviolet Stimulated Thermoluminescent Response Characteristics Of Aluminum Oxide, Edward Ryan Iii
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
This investigation has demonstrated that some aluminum oxide crystals have high sensitivity and are well suited for detecting and measuring ultraviolet radiation rates significantly less than .01 µW/cm2.
The thermoluminescent glow curve, linearity of response, and fading of the crystals were determined. An action spectrum was performed to determine the relative sensitivities of several crystals in a range of wavelengths from 230 nm to 546 nm.
The sensitivity of the crystals was found to decrease as a function of exposure. \n explanation for the decrease in sensitivity due to the presence of high temperature traps is presented.

Ultraviolet Stimulated Thermoluminescent Response Characteristics Of Aluminum Oxide, Edward Ryan
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
This investigation has demonstrated that some aluminum oxide crystals have high sensitivity and are well suited for detecting and measuring ultraviolet radiation rates significantly less than 0.1 pW/cm2. The thermoluminescent glow curve, linearity of response, and fading of the crystals were determined. An action spectrum was performed to determine the relative sensitivities of several crystals in a range of wavelengths from 230 nm to 546 nm. The sensitivity of the crystals was found to decrease as a function of exposure. An explanation for the decrease in sensitivity due to the presence of high temperature traps is presented.

Calculated Temperature Of Grid Lateral Wires In Microwave Power Triodes, Jewell Tucker
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
In microwave power triodes the grid drive power causes grid lateral wire heating. This development calculates the temperature of the wire as a function of the drive power, physical dimensions and characteristics of the wire material, for the following boundary conditions:
I. Constant grid drive, grid lateral wire of infinite length not connected to a heat sink.
II. Same as I except the wire is of finite length brazed to a grid frame.
III. The grid excitation in the form of pulses, and the grid lateral wire of finite length brazed to a grid frame.
the equations were verified experimentally …
