Effect Of Left-Handed Materials In Surface Plasmon Excitation And Propagationlength, Ari̇f Engi̇n Çeti̇n Jan 2019

Effect Of Left-Handed Materials In Surface Plasmon Excitation And Propagationlength, Ari̇f Engi̇n Çeti̇n

Turkish Journal of Physics

We investigated the dispersion relation of surface plasmons (SPs) excited in a medium comprised of a left-handed material (LHM) layer. We investigated different light polarizations in SP excitation along an LHM-metal interface. We studied SP excitation through a classical Kretschmann geometry, employing an LHM interlayer between a dielectric and a metal layer. Using this three-layer configuration, we investigated the effect of LHM medium on characterizing SP propagation length, which is directly related to the energy of the surface waves.


Design And Test Of An Apparatus For Transient Measurements Of The Thermalconductivity And Volumetric Heat Capacity Of Solids, Florian Gather, Ekrem Güneş, Peter J. Klar Jan 2019

Design And Test Of An Apparatus For Transient Measurements Of The Thermalconductivity And Volumetric Heat Capacity Of Solids, Florian Gather, Ekrem Güneş, Peter J. Klar

Turkish Journal of Physics

Knowledge of the thermal conductivity (κ) of solids is crucial for all thermoelectric devices. A new approach in transient measurement to determine this value as well as electric conductivity (σ) and the Seebeck coefficient (S) is presented here. This approach can be combined with current steady-state methods. A cylindrical sample is mounted between two heat-flux sensors that can be heated or cooled at their outer ends. The input signals defining the heat fluxes at the sensors can be any arbitrary function of time, although some waveforms yield more valid results. The method is evaluated by employing a one-dimensional numerical model …

Modified Newton's Gravitational Law From Deformed Poisson Bracket, Ch'ng Han Siong

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this paper, we obtain the modified Newton's gravitational law from deformed Poisson bracket motivated by the generalized uncertainty principle. The modified Newton's gravitational law that we obtain contains a term that plays an important role only in the regime of first order in $\bar{\beta}$. In the ordinary situation or condition, the modified Newton's gravitational law reduces to the conventional Newton's gravitational law.

Lorentz-Violating Effects In Single W Boson Production At The Lhc, Serdar Spor, İnanç Şahi̇n

Turkish Journal of Physics

We investigate the Lorentz-violating effects of Standard Model Extension (SME) in single W boson production process pp → pγp → p W- q' X at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We employ the Weizsacker-Williams approximation for photons emitted from one of the incoming proton beams and consider γq → W- q' as a subprocess in the proton-proton collision. The behavior of the differential cross-section for various orientations of the constant background fields is obtained by taking into account longitudinal and transverse polarization states of the final W bosons.

Theoretical Description Of The Two-Color Photoelectron Spectra Process Of Hydrogen: Comparison Between Tdse Calculation And Kroll And Watson Approach, Souhaila Chaddou, Soumia Chqondi, Abdelmalek Taoutioui, Abdelkader Makhoute

Turkish Journal of Physics

We present a theoretical study of the main characteristics of two-color photoionization of hydrogen atoms by short strong laser pulses. Our numerical approach is performed by numerically solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for a hydrogen atom interacting with Ti:sapphire laser radiation combined with its 15th harmonic. The energy spectra obtained by the direct numerical solution of the Schrödinger equation are compared with those given by the Kroll and Watson perturbative approach. This comparison allows us to check the reliability of the latter approximation.

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this study, we modified the previously introduced X-ray flare production potential (FPP) of each modified Zurich sunspot group based on its X-ray flare peak flux. Then, using these FPPs, the daily total sunspot number (Zurich number) calculation equation was modified; thus, new sunspot number data (CRz) were produced. We also compared ISSN and CRz with some geomagnetic indices (Dst, the maximum CME speed, and Ap indices). We found that the CRz data describe the geomagnetic indices quite well compared to ISSN. By using the regression equation between CRz and the sunspot area, the CRz dataset was recalculated back to …

The dielectric/semiconductor interface is one of the most important components strongly affecting the performance of organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). To improve OFET parameters, we applied a series of phenylboronic acid derivatives as self-assembly molecules between dielectric and organic semiconductor layers. Device performance parameters, especially threshold voltage, current on/off ratio, and subthreshold slope, were improved. To elucidate the mechanism, dielectric/semiconductor interfaces were analyzed using atomic force microscope and contact angle techniques.


Nonlinear Frequency Conversion Of Light Inside A Microcavity, Emre Yüce Jan 2019

Nonlinear Frequency Conversion Of Light Inside A Microcavity, Emre Yüce

Turkish Journal of Physics

Changing the color of light in a small mode volume is essential for applications that require on-chip operation. Microcavities are profound structures given their property to confine light in a small mode volume. Here, I numerically investigate the frequency conversion of light in a microcavity and show that the frequency converted light intensity is distinguished from an open medium such as an optical fiber or a nonlinear crystal. I observe that the frequency converted light intensity increases with increased rate of change of the refractive index of the microcavity. Notably, this study shows that the intensity of the frequency converted …

Application Of The Fractional Oscillator Model To Describe Damped Vibrations, Sergo Rekhviashvili, Arsen Pskhu, Praveen Agarwal, Shilpi Jain

Turkish Journal of Physics

We consider a model of damped vibrations based on fractional differentiation. The model given is completely consistent with the classical model of vibration with viscous damping. We find the relation between the order of fractional differentiation in the equation of motion and Q-factor of an oscillator. The proposed approach seems more appropriate for the physical nature of the described system. The experiment with a vibrating piezoelectric plate, performed as part of the study, showed good agreement with the model and confirmed that the fractional oscillator model can be used to describe strongly damped vibrations.

The results demonstrate that the sensitivity of each n-ZnO/p-Si photodiode annealed at various temperatures was linearly correlated with different UV illumination intensities. The devices annealed at 750 ºC and 550 ºC exhibit more sensitive …

Localizable Entanglement Of Isotropic Antiferromagnetic Spin-1/2 Chain, İzzet Paruğ Duru, Şahi̇n Aktaş

Turkish Journal of Physics

The bounds of entanglement on antiferromagnetic (AF) isotropic Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain including dipole- dipole interaction (D) were investigated. The Quantum Monte Carlo method based on loop algorithm was employed to calculate the two-spin and single-spin expectation values mediating the lower and upper bounds. It was revealed that D and Bz (the applied magnetic field) were pivotal parameters in controlling either entanglement creation/extinction or entanglement enhancement/weakening. Rival regions indicated a revival phenomenon depending on the temperature for various strengths of D which also showed a nonmonotonic behavior under certain Bz identifying critical points. Even if thermal agitations break the stability of …

The Co-Cu and Ni-Cu exhibited normal codeposition behavior, while the Co-Ni showed anomalous codeposition behavior irrespective of the bath concentration. The change in the degree of the anomalous codeposition was also investigated according to the Co ion …
