Two-To-Four Coherent Beams Interference Patterns Of Non-Orthogonal Planes, Ali̇ekber Aktağ

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this paper, we present an analysis of intensity distribution of interference pattern of two-to-four linearly polarized plane waves at their intersection in a plane surface. A configuration in which the four plane waves intersect at different angles along four non-orthogonal planes is considered. We show that the shape and the intensity distribution of the interference pattern is strong function of the angles of planes, kinds of polarizations, beam incidence angles. A variety of two-dimensional intensity distribution arrays have been formed by two-to-four beams with differing plane angles, angles of beam incidence and beam polarizations, which may potentially be useful …

Heat Capacity Anomalies Of Tlins_2 And Tlgas_2 Single Crystals Detected By Differential Scanning Calorimetry (Dsc), Muhammed Açikgöz

Turkish Journal of Physics

Specific heat capacity C_p anomalies of layered single crystals TlInS_2 and TlGaS_2 have been investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) as a new technique for such crystals. Special features of C_p have been revealed in the temperature range of the possible phase transitions of both crystals. A sequence of maximum values of C_p is obtained at 163, 174, 184, 193, 201, 212, 224, 254, and 259 K for TlInS_2. In the case of TlGaS_2, the temperatures of the obtained maximum C_p values at 177 and 241 K agree well with the intervals of the phase transition temperatures reported in the …

Characterization Of Thin Film Al/P-Cdte Schottky Diode, M. G. Mahesha, V. B. Kasturi, G. K. Shivakumar

Turkish Journal of Physics

A study has been made on the behavior of Al/p-CdTe thin film junction grown by thermal evaporation method. I-V characteristics show that the Al makes Schottky contact with p-CdTe. The variation of junction capacitance with frequency and voltage has been studied to evaluate the barrier height. The activation energy and band gap have been estimated by studying variation of resistivity with temperature. Using all these data, band diagram of Al/p-CdTe has been proposed.

High Pressure Phase Transition Of Copper Halides, Deoshree Baghmar, Neeraj Kumar Gaur, Sadhna Singh, Dinesh Chandra Gupta

Turkish Journal of Physics

The structural changes within copper halides induced by pressure from zinc-blend to rock-salt passing through an intermediate tetragonal structure have been investigated using an effective interionic interaction potential. The values of the phase transition pressures obtained by us for the copper halides are in good agreement with their available experimental data. We have also investigated the equation of state, which shows an appreciable volume collapses at the phase transition pressures.

Thermal Degradation And Aging Of High Temperature Piezoelectric Ceramics, Sunil W. Gotmare

University of Kentucky Master's Theses

Piezoelectric materials have numerous applications like high temperature accelerometers, pressure, flow and NDT transducers, acoustic emission, ultrasonic cleaning, welding, high voltage generators, medical therapy etc. The commonly used piezoelectric material, PZT continues to dominate the commercial market for piezoelectric actuators applications. The primary limitations of PZT are the lower Curie temperature T_C <390^oC and rapid thermal degradation avobe 200^oC.

Continuing efforts are focused on the development of piezoelectric materials suitable for high temperature applications >200^oC. These materials will be very useful for making sensors for space exploration, oil and geothermal well drilling tools, oil …

A Semiotics Framework For Analyzing Data Provenance Research, Jun Liu, Sudha Ram

Research & Publications

Data provenance is the background knowledge that enables a piece of data to be interpreted and used correctly within context. The importance of tracking provenance is widely recognized, as witnessed by significant research in various areas including e-science, homeland security, and data warehousing and business intelligence. In order to further advance the research on date and identity specific topics that merit further investigation. In this work, we develop a framework based on semiotics theory to assist in analyzing and comparing existing provenance research at the conceptual level. We provide a detailed review of data provenance research and compare and contrast …

Treatment Practices Of Childhood Sexual Abuse: A Developmental Psychopathology Perspective, Deborah Watson

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Childhood sexual abuse (CSA) occurs in up to 9.9 % of the general population. Clinical implications of CSA are lasting and warrant treatment utilizing suitable approaches. Although the developmental psychopathology model encourages clinicians to evaluate disorders in the context of risk/protective factors, cultural issues and development, there is a gap in current research regarding the utilization of developmental theory among clinicians working with this population. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine consistent patterns in treatment practices employed by therapists with CSA patients. The primary research question in this study was to determine how closely therapists' actual treatment …
