Ultra-fast charge exchange spectroscopy for turbulent ion temperature fluctuation measurements on the DIII-D tokamak (invited)
Uzun Kaymak, İlker Ümit; McKee, G. R. (2012-10-01)
A novel two-channel, high throughput, high efficiency spectrometer system has been developed to measure impurity ion temperature and toroidal velocity fluctuations associated with long-wavelength turbulence and other plasma instabilities. The spectrometer observes the emission of the n = 8-7 hydrogenic transition of C+5 ions (lambda(air) = 529.06 nm) resulting from charge exchange reactions between deuterium heating beams and intrinsic carbon. Novel features include a large, prism-coupled high-dispersion, v...
External Search Coil as a Means of Measuring Rotor Speed of an Induction Motor
Özlü Ertan, Hatice Gülçin; Keysan, Ozan (2009-07-03)
The study in this paper investigates whether the air gap harmonics can be identified by using an external search coil placed on the frame of an induction motor. For this purpose the study focuses on the prediction of rotor speed of an induction motor from external search coil emf, using spectral analysis techniques. In the first stage of the study the type of search coil which maximizes the induced emf is sought, also the position of the coil on the induced emf is investigated. Several motors are tested wit...

Development and characterization of low-cost uncooled infrared sensors for commercial applications
Tankut, Firat; Akın, Tayfun; Eminoğlu, Selim; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
This thesis reports the study on the development and characterization of low-cost uncooled microbolometer type infrared detectors, which are fabricated using standard CMOS and MEMS processes. Characterization of the detectors is the first step of developing infrared sensors with better performance. The characterized pixel has a 70 μm pitch and includes 4 serially connected diodes as the detector circuit. Thermal conductance (Gth), temperature sensitivity (TC) and, optical absorption are measured in scope of...
Development of high performance uncooled infrared detector materials
Kebapçı, Başak; Akın, Tayfun; Turan, Raşit; Department of Micro and Nanotechnology (2011)
This thesis reports both the optimizations of the vanadium oxide (VOx) thin film as an active infrared detector material by the magnetron sputtering deposition method and its use during fabrication of proper resistors for the microbolometers. Vanadium oxide is a preferred material for microbolometers, as it provides high TCR value, low noise, and reasonable resistance, and a number of high-tech companies have used this material to obtain state-of-the-art microbolometer arrays. This material is first used in...
