A Computational Method For Determining The Growth Rates Of Saline Water Drops., Robert Alexander Fletcher Jan 1974

A Computational Method For Determining The Growth Rates Of Saline Water Drops., Robert Alexander Fletcher

Masters Theses

"A phenomenologica1 theory is presented which describes the growth or evaporation of cloud droplets containing dissolved NaCl. The main interest is in the early stages of growth. The Maxwell-Fuchs equation is employed with refinements to account for the high sa1t concentration in small droplets. A computer program is presented that ca1culates the growth time as a function of radius for cloud droplets nucleated with NaCl.

The growth times obtainable from the Maxwe11-Fuchs equation differ significantly from the growth times ca1culated using the refined Maxwell-Fuche equation for ambient relative humidities less than or equal to 100%. Growth times for droplets nucleated …

A Direct Measurement Of The Ratio Of The Reaction Cross Sections For Two-Photon And Three-Photon Positron Annihilation In Aluminum And Silver, Robert Maurice Heavenrich Dec 1973

A Direct Measurement Of The Ratio Of The Reaction Cross Sections For Two-Photon And Three-Photon Positron Annihilation In Aluminum And Silver, Robert Maurice Heavenrich

Masters Theses

The probability of annihilation of a positron with its antiparticle, an electron, is spin dependent. Since both particles have spin component one -half, there are two possible relative orientations of their spins they can either be aligned (parallel) in the 3S, triplet, state with total spin component │Sz│= ½ n - ½ n = 1 n or they can be opposite (antiparallel) in the 1S; singlet, state with│Sz│= ½ n - ½ n = 0. To conserve energy and angular momentum, annihilation from the triplet state must result in the creation of an odd …

The Contribution Of Phonon-Induced Tunneling To Donor Esr Spectral Narrowing In Semiconductors, David Lawrence Meier Jan 1973

The Contribution Of Phonon-Induced Tunneling To Donor Esr Spectral Narrowing In Semiconductors, David Lawrence Meier

Masters Theses

"The narrowing of donor electron spin resonance spectra with increasing donor concentration ND and increasing temperature T has been observed in semiconductors in the past. One proposed explanation for this phenomenon has been narrowing due to electron motion caused by phonon-induced tunneling (hopping) between donor sites. According to the Anderson narrowing theory, the line width of the narrowed line can be expressed in terms of the average square spread of the non-narrowed spectrum, < H²>ave, and the average frequency of electron motion, ωn. Previous work has been done on narrowing by hopping, but rigorous expressions for ω …


Model Correction For The Formation Of Amorphous Silicon By Ion Implantation, John Robert Dennis Jan 1973

Model Correction For The Formation Of Amorphous Silicon By Ion Implantation, John Robert Dennis

Masters Theses

"ESR has been used to study the formation of an amorphous layer in silicon by ion implantation. The room temperature implants were done at 20 keV with low dose rates. The critical dose was determined as a function of ion mass for six different ion species. Our experimental heavy ion results agree with those found by other ESR investigators at higher energy, but are not the same for light ions. However, our light and heavy ion results agree with electron microscope measurements for low energy implants. An energy-independent model for the formation of amorphous silicon by ion implantation has …


Temperature Dependence Of The Formation Of An Amorphous Layer In Ion-Implanted Silicon, Gary Keith Woodward Jan 1973

Temperature Dependence Of The Formation Of An Amorphous Layer In Ion-Implanted Silicon, Gary Keith Woodward

Masters Theses

"Electron spin resonance (ESR) has been used to study the temperature dependence of the formation of an amorphous damaged layer produced by ion implantation in silicon.

Undoped silicon wafers were implanted with N+, Ar+, and Kr+ ions at 20 keV and dose rates less than .36 µa/cm2. Implant temperatures ranged from room temperature to 250°C. ESR measurements were made at room temperature on these wafers. The only ESR signal found was that associated with amorphous silicon. The ESR signal amplitude for a given ion and temperature increased approximately linearly with dose up to …


The Design And Calibration Of A Vibrating Sample Magnetometer, Donald Dwight Hoffman Jan 1973

The Design And Calibration Of A Vibrating Sample Magnetometer, Donald Dwight Hoffman

Masters Theses

"The design and calibration of a vibrating sample magnetometer is described. The sample motion was in the direction of the external magnetic field which was produced by a superconducting solenoid. The maximum external magnetic field was 70 kilogauss. Sample temperature could be varied from 77°K to 1000°K with a vacuum jacketed furnace. The maximum temperature was obtained with approximately 27 watts. The instrument was calibrated to 1% with a spherical nickel sample"--Abstract, page ii.

Gas-To-Particle Conversions Of So₂-No₂-H₂O-Air Gas Mixtures Under Specific Uv Irradiation, James Leonard Fowler Jan 1972

Gas-To-Particle Conversions Of So₂-No₂-H₂O-Air Gas Mixtures Under Specific Uv Irradiation, James Leonard Fowler

Masters Theses

"In these series of experiments, mixtures of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide were irradiated in an absorption cell with monochromatic radiation found in the tropospheric region of the atmosphere. The irradiated mixtures were then introduced into a Wilson type cloud chamber to investigate the effects of these specific wavelength induced gas to particle conversions on nucleation. Results showed that sulfur dioxide could not be the sole agent for the formation of condensation nuclei. A mixture of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide irradiated at 3660 angstroms produced copious droplet formation identifying nitrogen dioxide as an integral reactant in nuclei production"--Abstract, page …

Thermal Expansivity And Refractive Index Determinations For Some Hydrosol Systems And Their Similarity To Properties Ascribed To "Anomalous" Water, Gerald Wayne Chappue Jan 1971

Thermal Expansivity And Refractive Index Determinations For Some Hydrosol Systems And Their Similarity To Properties Ascribed To "Anomalous" Water, Gerald Wayne Chappue

Masters Theses

"The characteristic thermal expansion and refractive index of aqueous dispersions of SiO₂ and NaOH were determined for samples contained in quartz micro-capillaries. Comparison is made with the expansivity and refractive properties of anomalous water or polywater as reported by other investigators. The similarity between the properties and behavior of various hydrosol systems and those ascribed to anomalous water is cited as a serious challenge to the hypothesized existence of an allotropic modification of water"--Abstract, page ii.
