(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2020) Atakav, Baturalp; Gursoy, Ozen; Erzi, Eray; Tur, Kazim; Dispinar, Derya
Strontium modification of Al-Si alloys has known to have several beneficial effects such as increased feedability, the formation of fibrous Si and increased mechanical properties. However, in the presence of Sr, during melting and holding durations, the oxide structure of the dross may change which leads to several problems during casting operations. In this work, the amount of Sr was changed and the melt was held for 1 h. Reduced Pressure Test (RPT) was used to asses melt quality change and it was found that cleanliness was increased due to the fading of Sr.

Samarium and Yttrium Doping Induced Phase Transitions and Their Effects on the Structural, Optical and Electrical Properties of Nd₂sn_{2< Ceramics}
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2019) Saleh, Adli A.; Qasrawi, A. F.; Hamamera, Hanan Z.; Khanfar, Hazem K.; Yumusak, G.
In this work, the effects of Sm+3 and Y+3 doping onto the structural, optical and electrical properties of Nd2Sn2O7 are investigated. An atomic content of 3.49% and 4.29% of Sm and Y, respectively, were sufficient to alter the physical properties of the Nd2Sn2O7. Particularly, the Y+3 ionic substitution decreased the lattice constant, narrows the energy band gap, changed the conductivity type from n- to p- type and increased the electrical conductivity by 73 times without changing the cubic nature of structure of the pyrochlore ceramics. On the other hand, Sm+3 ionic substitutions changed the cubic structure to hexagonal or trigonal and forced optical transitions in the infrared range of light. The energy band gap shrunk from 3.40 to 1.40 eV, the defect density is reduced and the electrical conductivity increased by 47 times via Sm doping. These doping agents' makes the neodymium stannate pyrochlore ceramics more appropriates for optoelectronic applications.

(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2019) Terlemezoglu, M.; Surucu, O. Bayrakli; Colakoglu, T.; Abak, M. K.; Gullu, H. H.; Ercelebi, C.; Parlak, M.
Cu2ZnSn(S, Se)(4) (CZTSSe) is a promising alternative absorber material to achieve high power conversion efficiencies, besides its property of involving low-cost and earth-abundant elements when compared to Cu(In, Ga) Se-2 (CIGS) and cadmium telluride (CdTe), to be used in solar cell technology. In this study, a novel fabrication technique was developed by utilizing RF sputtering deposition of CZTSSe thin films having a surface decorated with self-assembled nanoflakes. The formation of nanoflakes was investigated by detailed spectroscopic method of analysis in the effect of each stacked layer deposition in an optimized sequence and the size of nanoflakes by an accurate control of sputtering process including film thickness. Moreover, the effects of substrate temperature on the formation of nanoflakes on the film surface were discussed at a fixed deposition route. One of the main advantages arising from the film surface with self-assembled nanoflakes is the efficient light trapping which decreases the surface reflectance. As a result of the detailed production and characterization studies, it was observed that there was a possibility of repeatable and controllable fabrication sequence for the preparation of CZTSSe thin films with self-textured surfaces yielding low surface reflectance.

Structural and Dielectric Performance of the Ba(zn_{1/3< Perovskite Ceramics}
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2019) Qasrawi, A. F.; Sahin, Ethem Ilhan; Emek, Mehriban; Kartal, Mesut; Kargin, Serdar
In this work, we have explored the antimony doping effects on the structural and dielectric properties of Ba(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O-3 ceramics (BZN). The ceramics displayed perovskite structures with a lattice constant that decreases with increasing Sb content. The antimony solubility limit of the BZN ceramics is x < 0.50. Belowthis limit and in the range of 0.30 <= x <= 0.40, the microstrain, the dislocation density and the stacking faults decreased and the crystallite size increases with increasing Sb content in the composition of BZN. When the limit is exceeded minor phases are predicted by software analysis and confirmed by the experimental techniques. The presence of these phases is also verified by the scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy techniques. Increasing the Sb content is observed to decrease the value of the dielectric constant. The Sb doped BZN ceramics exhibits high dielectric quality factors that nominate it for applications in electronics as radio waves resonators.

Electron-Lattice Interaction Scattering Mobility in Tl₂ingase_{4< Single Crystals}
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2008) Qasrawi, A. F.; Gasanly, N. M.
In this work, the dark electrical resistivity, charge carrier density and Hall mobility of Tl(2)InGaSe(4) single crystal have been recorded and analyzed to investigate the dominant scattering mechanism in the crystal. The data analyses have shown that this crystal exhibits an extrinsic n-type conduction. The temperature-dependent dark electrical resistivity analysis reflected the existence of two energy levels as 0.396 and 0.512 eV, being dominant above and below 260 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the carrier density was analyzed by using the single-donor-single-acceptor model. The latter analysis has shown that the above maintained 0.512 eV energy level is a donor impurity level. The compensation ratio for this crystal is determined as 0.96. The Hall mobility of Tl(2)InGaSe(4) is found to be limited by the scattering of electron-acoustic phonon interactions. The calculated theoretical acoustic phonon scattering mobility agrees with the experimental one under the condition that the acoustic deformation potential is 12.5 eV.

Design and Electrical Performance of Cds/Sb_{2< Tunneling Heterojunction Devices}
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2018) Khusayfan, Najla M.; Qasrawi, A. F.; Khanfar, Hazem K.
In the current work, a tunneling barrier device made of 20 nm thick Sb2Te3 layer deposited onto 500 nm thick CdS is designed and characterized. The design included a Yb metallic substrate and Ag point contact of area of 10(-3) cm(2). The heterojunction properties are investigated by means of x-ray diffraction and impedance spectroscopy techniques. It is observed that the coating of the Sb2Te3 onto the surface of CdS causes a further deformation to the already strained structure of hexagonal CdS. The designed energy band diagram for the CdS/Sb2Te3 suggests a straddling type of heterojunction with an estimated conduction and valence band offsets of 0.35 and 1.74 eV, respectively. In addition, the analysis of the capacitance-voltage characteristic curve revealed a depletion region width of 14 nm. On the other hand, the capacitance and conductivity spectra which are analyzed in the frequency domain of 0.001-1.80 GHz indicated that the conduction in the device is dominated by the quantum mechanical tunneling in the region below 0.26 GHz and by the correlated barrier hopping in the remaining region. While the modeling of the conductivity spectra allowed investigation of the density of states near Fermi levels and an average scattering time of 1.0 ns, the capacitance spectra exhibited resonance at 0.26 GHz followed by negative differential capacitance effect in the frequency domain of 0.26-1.8 GHz. Furthermore, the evaluation of the impedance and reflection coefficient spectra indicated the usability of these devices as wide range low pass filters with ideal values of voltage standing wave ratios.

First Principles Study on the Structural, Electronic, Mechanical and Lattice Dynamical Properties of Xrhsb (x = Ti and Zr) Paramagnet Half-Heusler Antimonides
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2019) Surucu, Gokhan; Candan, Abdullah; Erkisi, Aytac; Gencer, Aysenur; Gullu, Hasan Huseyin
The half-Heusler TiRhSb and ZrRhSb alloys in the formation of face-centered cubic MgAgAs-type structure, which conforms to the F (4) over bar 3m space group with 216 as the space number, have been investigated using Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) implemented in Density Functional Theory (DFT). The calculated formation enthalpies and the plotted energy-volume curves of different types of structural phases (alpha, beta, and gamma) in these alloys indicate that the gamma-phase structure is the best energetically suitable structure. In addition, TiRhSb and ZrRhSb alloys have been found as paramagnetic (PM) with the investigation of antiferromagnetic (AFM), ferromagnetic (FM), and paramagnetic (PM) orders in the most stable gamma-phase structure. Therefore, their electronic, mechanical, and dynamical properties have been examined in the gamma structural phase and paramagnetic order. These alloys have semiconducting nature due to the observed same band gaps in both the majority and minority spin channels of the calculated spin-polarised electronic band structure. These calculated band gaps are 0.75 eV for gamma-TiRhSb and 1.18 eV for gamma-ZrRhSb. The predicted elastic constants indicate that the alloys in this study are mechanically stable and show nearly isotropic behavior in the gamma structural phase. Also, the minimum and the diffuson thermal conductivites have been determined for these alloys. Finally, the calculated phonon dispersion spectras for the gamma-TiRhSb and gamma-ZrRhSb half-Heusler antimonide alloys show the dynamic stability of these systems.

Light Illumination Effect on the Electrical and Photovoltaic Properties of In₆s_{7< Crystals}
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2006) Qasrawi, AF; Gasanly, NM
The electrical and photoelectrical properties of In6S7 crystals have been investigated in the temperature regions of 170-300 K and 150-300 K, respectively. The dark electrical analysis revealed the intrinsic type of conduction. The energy band gap obtained from the temperature-dependent dark current is found to be 0.75 eV. It is observed that the photocurrent increases in the temperature range of 150 K up to T-m = 230 K and decreases at T > T-m. Two photoconductivity activation energies of 0.21 and 0.10 eV were determined for the temperature ranges below and above Tm, respectively. The photocurrent (I-ph)-illumination intensity (F) dependence follows the law I-ph alpha F-gamma. The value of. decreases when the temperature is raised to T-m, then it starts increasing. The change in the value. with temperature is attributed to the exchange in role between the recombination and trapping centres in the crystal. The crystals are found to exhibit photovoltaic properties. The photovoltage is recorded as a function of illumination intensity at room temperature. The maximum open-circuit voltage and short-circuit photocurrent density, which are related to an illumination intensity equivalent to one sun, are 0.12 V and 0.38 mA cm(-2), respectively.

Mechanical, Thermo-Mechanical and Morphological Characterization of Abs Based Composites Loaded With Perlite Mineral
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2020) Alghadi, Aiah Mohamed; Tirkes, Seha; Tayfun, Umit
Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) copolymer was filled with perlite mineral (PER) at four different loading level of 2.5%, 5%, 10% and 15%. ABS/PER composites were produced using lab-scale micro-compounder followed by injection molding process. Mechanical, thermo-mechanical, melt-flow and morphological properties of composites were reported by tensile and impact tests, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), melt flow index (MFI) test and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. Mechanical characterizations revealed that tensile strength, elongation and Youngs? modulus of ABS were improved by PER inclusions. However, impact strength of ABS reduced with increase of PER concentration. Glass transition temperature of ABS displayed increasing trend for %5 concentration of PER. MFI test implied that PER addition caused slight decreasing for MFI value of unfilled ABS. Homogeneous dispersion of PER particles into ABS matrix for their lower loading level was obtained from SEM micrographs of composites. According to findings, 5% PER containing sample exhibited the best performance and it was remarked as the most suitable candidate among fabricated ABS based composites.

Photoelectronic and Electrical Properties of Ins Crystals
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2002) Qasrawi, AF; Gasanly, NM
To identify the localized levels in InS single crystals, the dark electrical conductivity, current-voltage characteristics and photoconductivity measurements were carried out in the temperature range of 10-350 K. Temperature dependence of dark electrical conductivity and the space-charge limited current studies indicate the presence of a single discrete trapping level located at (10 +/- 2) meV below the conduction band with a density of about 4.8 x 10(11) cm(-3). The conductivity data above 110 K reveal an additional two independent donor levels with activation energies of (50 +/- 2) and (164 +/- 4) meV indicating the extrinsic nature of conductivity. The spectral distribution of photocurrent in the photon energy range of 0.8-3.1 eV reveals an indirect band gap of (1.91 +/- 0.04) eV. The photocurrent-illumination intensity dependence follows the law I-ph proportional to F-gamma, with gamma being 1.0 and 0.5 at low and high illumination intensities indicating the domination of monomolecular and bimolecular recombination, respectively. It is observed that the photocurrent increases in the temperature range of 10 K up to T-m = 110 K and decreases or remains constant for 110 K < T < 160 K and increases again above 160 K. The temperature dependence of the photocurrent reveals an additional shallow impurity level with activation energies of 3 meV.
