Giant Efficiency Of Fröhlich Interaction In Self-Assembled Quantum Dots, A. W. E. Minnaert, A. Yu. Silov, J. E. M. Haverkort, J. H. Wolter, A. Garcia, V. N. Gladilin, V. M. Fomn, J. T. Devreese
Giant Efficiency Of Fröhlich Interaction In Self-Assembled Quantum Dots, A. W. E. Minnaert, A. Yu. Silov, J. E. M. Haverkort, J. H. Wolter, A. Garcia, V. N. Gladilin, V. M. Fomn, J. T. Devreese
Turkish Journal of Physics
A transition is being observed from an inhomogeneously broadened photoluminescence band under non-resonant excitation of InAs/GaAs Self-Assembled quantum Dots (SAD's) into up to five phonon-assisted emission bands under selective excitation. A similar effect is obtained from photoluminescence excitation experiments (PLE). We interpret the phonon-assisted PL as being due to a giant efficiency of the Fröhlich interaction between an exciton polarized by strain in the SAD and LO-phonons. The model is consistent with the pronounced p-type polarization of the emission observed in our cleaved-side PL-measurements. Further support is obtained from our calculations in which a different localization of the electrons and …
Electron Liquid Beyond The Random Phase Approximation, Mehmet Tomak, Ceyhun Bulutay
Electron Liquid Beyond The Random Phase Approximation, Mehmet Tomak, Ceyhun Bulutay
Turkish Journal of Physics
A deeper understanding of low-dimensional and small-scale electronic systems requires an accurate characterization of the many-electron effects. Based on the electron liquid (EL) model, these many-body effects in the three-dimensional (3D) and two-dimensional (2D) electronic systems are dealt going beyond the random phase approximation within the zero-temperature framework. The dielectric formulation of the many-body problem is recapitulated and the longitudinal dielectric function of the EL is obtained using the self-consistent local-field correction scheme, known as STLS, under a general spin-valley degeneracy. Extensive explicit expressions are provided for the use of other researchers. The performance of this formalism is compared in …
Energy Relaxation Rate Of Hot Electrons In N-Type Gan Epilayers Using Heat Pulse Techniques, P. Hawker, A. J. Kent, T. S. Cheng, C. T. Foxon
Energy Relaxation Rate Of Hot Electrons In N-Type Gan Epilayers Using Heat Pulse Techniques, P. Hawker, A. J. Kent, T. S. Cheng, C. T. Foxon
Turkish Journal of Physics
We have measured the energy relaxation rate of hot electrons in MBE grown bulk GaN epilayers on GaAs and sapphire substrates over the electron temperature range 1 - 130 K. The measurements were made using heat pulse techniques. For layers grown on GaAs substrates the results show that the carriers reside in the substrate, probably as in a GaAs/AlGaAs heterojunction. For layers grown on sapphire substrates we obtain a P \propto T^4_e dependence for the relaxation rate in the low temperature limit, consistent with piezoelectric coupling in the so-called `dirty' regime, changing to a linear dependence in the high temperature, …
Feasibility Of The Gainp/Ingaas/Gaas System For Modulation Doped Field-Effect Transistors, C. Besi̇kci̇, Y. Ci̇van
Feasibility Of The Gainp/Ingaas/Gaas System For Modulation Doped Field-Effect Transistors, C. Besi̇kci̇, Y. Ci̇van
Turkish Journal of Physics
Si-doped single Ga_{0.51}In_{0.49}P layers and GaInP/InGaAs/GaAs modulation doped field-effect transistor structures grown by gas source molecular beam epitaxy were characterized in detail through Hall-Effect and Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy techniques. Electrical characterization of the undoped and moderately Si-doped (N_D = 3 x 10^{17} cm^{-3}) GaInP layers yielded an electron trap with an activation energy of 0.75 eV and a temperature dependent capture cross section with a capture barrier of 0.593 eV showing DX center properties. The trap was not detected in highly Si doped (N_D = 4 x 10^{18} cm^{-3}) as grown layers suggesting that it is a defect complex …
The Concept Of Free Electromagnetic Field In Quantum Domain, Alexander Shumovsky, Özgür Müstecaplioğlu
The Concept Of Free Electromagnetic Field In Quantum Domain, Alexander Shumovsky, Özgür Müstecaplioğlu
Turkish Journal of Physics
By virtue of the consideration of polarization and phase properties of dipole radiation in the quantum domain, it is shown that the concept of free electromagnetic field should be considered as a quite risky approximation in the description of quantum fluctuations of some physical observables.
Bands Of Localized Electromagnetic Waves In Random Collections Of Dielectric Particles, Marian Rusek, Arkadiusz Orlowski
Bands Of Localized Electromagnetic Waves In Random Collections Of Dielectric Particles, Marian Rusek, Arkadiusz Orlowski
Turkish Journal of Physics
Anderson localization of electromagnetic waves in random arrays of dielectric cylinders is studied. An effective theoretical approach based on the finite size scaling analysis of transmission is developed. The disordered dielectric medium is modeled by a system of randomly distributed 2D electric dipoles. The appearance of the band of localized waves emerging in the limit of an infinite medium is discovered. It suggests deeper insight into existing experimental and theoretical results.
Gauge Theory Of Phase And Scale, Marek Pawlowski
Gauge Theory Of Phase And Scale, Marek Pawlowski
Turkish Journal of Physics
Old Weyl's the idea of scale recalibration freedom and Infeld's and van der Waerden's (IW) ideas concerning geometrical interpretation of natural spinor phase gauge symmetry are discussed in the context of modern models of fundamental particle interactions. It is argued that (IW) gauge symmetry can be naturaly identified with the U(1) symmetry of the Weinberg-Salam model. It is also argued that there are no serious reasons to reject Weyl's gauge theory from consideration. Its inclusion enriches the original Weinberg-Salam theory and leads to prediction of new phenomena that do not contradict experiments.
The Wigner Problem In Electrodynamics, Andrzej Horzela
The Wigner Problem In Electrodynamics, Andrzej Horzela
Turkish Journal of Physics
The relation between canonical commutation rules and a shape of acting force is analysed. It is shown that canonical commutation relations and Newtonian equations of motion for a single particle dynamics do imply the force to be of the Lorentz type but the inverse is not true. The example of a single particle motion in a constant magnetic field shows that equations of motion allow an alternative to canonical commutation relations to exist and it is a Lie algebra. The algebra found is of the type of algebras found in studies leading towards noncommutative geometry approaches to physical problems.
Effect Of Ionizing Radiation On The Silicon Impatt Diode Characteristics, M. B. Tagaev
Effect Of Ionizing Radiation On The Silicon Impatt Diode Characteristics, M. B. Tagaev
Turkish Journal of Physics
We investigated the effect of ^{60}Co \gamma-irradiation (doses from 10^2 to 2 \times 10^6 Gy), both without and with heat annealing, on silicon IMPATT diode parameters. It is shown that such treatments improve the diode characteristics (particularly decrease the reverse current and increase both the output and the diffusion length of the minority charge carriers) due to radiation-enhanced processes.
Cyclic Nature Of The Orbital Period Variations Of Some Algol-Type Binaries, Seli̇m O. Selam, Osman Demi̇rcan
Cyclic Nature Of The Orbital Period Variations Of Some Algol-Type Binaries, Seli̇m O. Selam, Osman Demi̇rcan
Turkish Journal of Physics
The long-term period variations of the classical algol-type binaries XZ And, U Cep, \beta Per, RT Per, ST Per and TX UMa were studied by using all available observed times of eclipse minima. The (O-C) diagrams formed by the times of eclipse minima were found to be representable by one or more cyclic variations superimposed on a secular parabolic variation. The secular variations in the orbital periods should be caused by the mass transfer between the component stars and the mass loss from the systems. For our sample of Algol systems, none of the cyclic variations were found caused by …
Band-Gap Renormalization In Quantum Wires, K. Güven, C. R. Bennett, B. Tanatar
Band-Gap Renormalization In Quantum Wires, K. Güven, C. R. Bennett, B. Tanatar
Turkish Journal of Physics
Improved techniques in semiconductor fabrication increased the interest in quantum wire structures, because of their opto-electronic device application possibilities. Many-body interactions among the electrons and holes in the wire lead to the band-gap renormalization (BGR), which in turn affect the optical properties of the system. We study the BGR within the random-phase approximation incorporating the dynamical effects, and investigate the density dependence.
Carrier Transport And Band Offsets In Two Dimensional Heterostructures, Hi̇lmi̇ Ünlü
Carrier Transport And Band Offsets In Two Dimensional Heterostructures, Hi̇lmi̇ Ünlü
Turkish Journal of Physics
Advances in the low dimensional heterojunction device technology cannot be complete without adequate and reliable analytic model for determining interface properties such as band offsets needed to study the carrier transport and to evaluate the device performance at high temperatures and pressures. In this article, using the extended universal tight binding model of semiconductors, a new way of determining the band offsets in heterostructures is presented. In this model the band offsets are first determined by aligning the vacuum level, defined relative to valence band maximum which is screened by optical dielectric constant of semiconductors, at the interface at absolute …
Multitime Generalization Of Maxwell Electrodynamics And Gravity, Vladilen Barashenkov
Multitime Generalization Of Maxwell Electrodynamics And Gravity, Vladilen Barashenkov
Turkish Journal of Physics
System of equations of motion for interacting electromagnetic field and charged bodies is derived by means of an action principle in six-dimensional space with a three-dimensional time vector. The influence of the additional (hidden) components of time on the body motion is considered. Macroscopic experiments and astrophysical observations which can reveal the time multi-dimensionality are discussed. At present there are no facts which would be in contradiction with the hypothesis of the multi-dimensionality of time.
New Aspects Of Vavilov-Cherenkov Radiation, Georgy Afanasiev, Vladimir Kartavenko
New Aspects Of Vavilov-Cherenkov Radiation, Georgy Afanasiev, Vladimir Kartavenko
Turkish Journal of Physics
The effects arising from accelerated and decelerated motion of charged point particles inside a medium are studied. It is shown explicitly that, in addition to the bremsstrahlung and Cherenkov shock wave, the electromagnetic shock wave arising from the charge velocity exceeding the medium light velocity should be observed. This shock wave has the same singularity as the Cherenkov one and therefore, it is more singular than the bremsstrahlung shock wave. The space-time regions where these shock waves exist and conditionsunder which they appear are determined.
Projectile Fragmentation In Emulsion At (4.1-4.5) A Gev/C, A. El-Naghy, S. A. H. Abou-Steit, M. Mohery
Projectile Fragmentation In Emulsion At (4.1-4.5) A Gev/C, A. El-Naghy, S. A. H. Abou-Steit, M. Mohery
Turkish Journal of Physics
The fragmentation process has been investigated for 4.5A GeV/c^{28}Si nuclei in emulsion and compared with the results of 4.5A GeV/c^{24}Mg and 4.1A GeV/c^{22}Ne in order to test the validity of the different theoretical models. It has been found that a single parameter distribution is insufficient to explain exactly the fragmentation process. Correlation studies have shown to be necessary for distinguishing between the different theoretical models for the fragmentation. The impact parameter, which defines the nature of the collision, has been found to influence considerably the shape of the charge yield distribution. The angular distributions of the projectile fragments can be …
Assessment Of The Degree Of Mix Of Powder Mixtures, Orhan Vai̇zoğlu
Assessment Of The Degree Of Mix Of Powder Mixtures, Orhan Vai̇zoğlu
Turkish Journal of Physics
The older methods for the determination of the degree of a random mix was solely based on the calculation of a simple standard deviation. Physical characteristics like, density, average particle weight and size of each component was not considered. Therefore, the evaluation, when the state of a random mix is reached, was somewhat superficial. Poole, Taylor, and Wall [1] have derived equations, where the physical characteristics of the components were taken into consideration. By this means, it is possible to calculate, in advance, the theoretical coefficient of variation and the corresponding confidence limits. One can then experimentally follow under which …
Spectral Broadening Functions, Slavek Rucinski
Spectral Broadening Functions, Slavek Rucinski
Turkish Journal of Physics
Many astrophysical phenomena involving velocity fields produce broadening of spectral lines. Frequently, the cross-correlation function (CCF) is used to extract information about this broadening from segments of high resolution spectra. CCF has become the standard tool for handing extraction of radial-velocity and broadening information from high resolution spectra as it permits integration of information which is common to many spectral lines into one function which is easy to calculate, visualize and interpret. However, it can be argued that this is not the best tool for applications such as determinations of metallicities ([Fe/H]), for finding locations of star spots on active …
Short-Period Rs Cvn And W Uma Binaries: How Are They Related?, Frans Van't Veer
Short-Period Rs Cvn And W Uma Binaries: How Are They Related?, Frans Van't Veer
Turkish Journal of Physics
Two groups of late-type very close main sequence binaries, the so-called short-period RS Canum Venaticorum (RS CVn) and W Ursae Majoris (W UMa) systems, are important for the understanding of the structure and evolutionary consequencies of angular momentum loss (AML) resulting from magnetic stellar winds of fast rotating solar type stars. The components of RS CVn stars are close to their Roche lobes, but still detached, whereas W UMa binaries are contact systems; both are rotating fast. One of the crucial problems is trying to answer the question if there is a dynamical relation between the two types of binaries …
Orbital Period Modulation In Chromospherically Active Close Binaries, Cafer İbanoğlu
Orbital Period Modulation In Chromospherically Active Close Binaries, Cafer İbanoğlu
Turkish Journal of Physics
The orbital period changes in some chromospherically active close binaries have been interpreted as a consequence of magnetic activity. At least in two active close binaries a possible relationship between the orbital period modulation and activity cycle was suggested. The existence of a third companion in these binaries has also been proposed. The light-time effect which arises from orbiting around a third-body has been subtracted from all the O-C values and a cyclic change of the orbital period has been obtained. These cyclic changes seem to be connected with the total brightness variations at least in two samples, namely, V471 …

The Light And Colour Variations Of Mm Her, Günay Taş
The Light And Colour Variations Of Mm Her, Günay Taş
Turkish Journal of Physics
RS CVn type eclipsing binary MM Herculis have been observed using B, V, R filters in 1997 and obtained light and colour curves were examined together with the earlier 12 light and colour curves obtained between 1976 and 1997. It was seen that the system is bluer, while it is fainter. Such finding probably reveals the evolutionary effect of the photospheric bright facular structures surrounding starspots.
Magnetic Activity In The Extreme Ultraviolet, Mihalis Mathioudakis
Magnetic Activity In The Extreme Ultraviolet, Mihalis Mathioudakis
Turkish Journal of Physics
The wealth of astronomical observations obtained in the extreme ultraviolet in recent years, have allowed comprehensive studies of the stellar transition regions and coronae to be carried out. For the first time we have been able to resolve individual coronal lines of various elements formed over a large temperature range (10^{5} - 10^{7.2} K). The temperature, densities, abundances and magnetic field strengths of the stellar coronae can now be determined. Here we review some of the observations in the field of cool stars and discuss the implications on atmospheric heating requirements.

Solar Flares, E. Rennan Pekünlü
Turkish Journal of Physics
In this paper, the dynamics, the magnetohydrodynamics and the energetics of flaring magnetic loops are reviwed. It is also emphasized that the presented model is in no way a unique one. The most commonly occurring type is labelled as B type flares. This paper reviews the general features of a B type flare.

Kinematics Of Rs Cvn And W Uma Binaries In The Hipparcos Catalogue, Zeki̇ Aslan, Tuncay Özdemi̇r, Cahi̇t Yeşi̇lyaprak, Ahmet İskender
Turkish Journal of Physics
Space motions of RS CVn and W UMa binaries have been calculated using parallaxes and proper motions from Hipparcos catalogue and radial velocities from the literature. We have calculating the mean motions and velocity dispersions. We have excluded those binaries with relative parallax errors \geq 0.5. The comparison of the asymmetric drift, velocity ellipsoids and vertex deviation with those of main sequence stars given by Dehnen and Binney indicates that both RS CVn and W UMa binaries have kinematics similar to main sequence stars slightly bluer than the Parenago's discontinuity and B-V \simeq 0.62. Implication of this has been discussed.
Electroweak Symmetry Breaking In Low-Scale Quantum Gravity, M. Boz, A. Demi̇r, Namik Kemal Pak
Electroweak Symmetry Breaking In Low-Scale Quantum Gravity, M. Boz, A. Demi̇r, Namik Kemal Pak
Turkish Journal of Physics
We discuss the implications of low-scale quantum gravity on electroweak symmetry breaking by computing one-loop gravitational corrections to the Higgs potential. We conclude that these radiative corrections are quite large after summing over the graviton and dilaton Kaluza-Klein towers, and there is no possibility of electroweak symmetry breaking unless one allows for the complex vacuum expectation value for the Higgs field.
Stellar Observations Made At The Malatya Danjon Astrolabe Station, Orhan Gölbaşi, Hüseyi̇n Kiliç, Fernand Chollet
Stellar Observations Made At The Malatya Danjon Astrolabe Station, Orhan Gölbaşi, Hüseyi̇n Kiliç, Fernand Chollet
Turkish Journal of Physics
We give here the first results of astrometric stellar observations made at the Malatya Station with the modified astrolabe of Paris observatory. This campaign is conducted as part of a cooperation between Inönü University and the Paris Observatory. The astrolabe, which is strictly similar to that of Santiago de Chile, can use two reflecting prisms instead of the trnsparent prism of the Danjon Astrolabe. Consequently, it is possible to observe at the two zenith distances of 30° and 60°. The time is supplied by a GPS receiver which gives UTC with the necessary precision. As the station is a new …

A Magnetization And Gmr Study On Multilayered Fe/Ag/Co Thin Film, Cengi̇z Bi̇rli̇kseven, Alpan Bek, Hüseyi̇n Zafer Durusoy
Turkish Journal of Physics
Single layer Fe(20Å) and Co(20Å) and multilayered Ag(20Å)/[Fe(20Å)/Ag(40Å)/Co(20Å)/Ag (40Å)] x 3/Ag(20Å) films were prepared in UHV by magnetron sputtering technique onto the silicon substates. Films were determined to have polycrystalline nature through SEM examination. Magnetization measurements were made on single and multilayer films. Due to the polycrystalline structure of the films, rounded magnetization curves were obtained. The GMR effect showed a rounded behaviour which also is an indication of the polycrystallinity of the films. The GMR effect, measured in Fe/Ag/Co multilayer structure, was analyzed with the help of magnetization behaviour of the multilayer structure and magnetization behaviour of the single …
Magnetisation In Two-Dimensions, Bengü Kaplan
Magnetisation In Two-Dimensions, Bengü Kaplan
Turkish Journal of Physics
We discuss the magnetisation deviation in two-dimensions (2d) for an iron film for which the anisotropy is much smaller and hence the magnetisation is a stronger function of temperature. The magnetisation deviation can be adequately described by an RPA (random phase approximation) approach. Our results fit the experimental data at high fields and hence can be used to estimate the value of the effective exchange interaction (J_{2d}) for monolayer (ML) films.
Implications Of \Delta\Rho And Charm Ii Data For Z' Physics, Durmuş Ali̇ Demi̇r
Implications Of \Delta\Rho And Charm Ii Data For Z' Physics, Durmuş Ali̇ Demi̇r
Turkish Journal of Physics
We discuss the constraints on the Z^{\prime} model parameters coming from Z-pole and low-energy \nu_{\mu}-e scattering data in the frame work of GUT-motivated models. We find that when the coupling constant of the extra U(1) is small (large) the parameter space is mainly determined by the Z-pole (the low-energy \nu_{\mu}-e scattering) data.
A New Formalism For Nonextensive Physical Systems: Tsallis Thermostatistics, Uğur Tirnakli, Fevzi Büyükkiliç, Doğan Demi̇rhan
A New Formalism For Nonextensive Physical Systems: Tsallis Thermostatistics, Uğur Tirnakli, Fevzi Büyükkiliç, Doğan Demi̇rhan
Turkish Journal of Physics
Although Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistics provides a suitable tool which enables us to handle a large number of physical systems satisfactorily, it has some basic restrictions : (i) the range of the microscopic interactions must be small compared to the linear size of the macroscopic systems (short-range interactions) , (ii) the time range of the microscopic memory must be small compared to the observation time (Marcovian processes) and (iii) the system must evolve in an Euclidean-like space-time. In the case of a breakdown in one and/or the others of these restrictions, BG statistics fails. More precisely, the situation could be classified …
