Diffraction Enhanced Imaging (DEI) is an X-ray imaging technique providing specific information about the molecular structure of a tissue by means of coherently scattered photons. A Controlled Drift Detector (CDD) is a novel 2D silicon imager developed to be used in X-ray imaging techniques. In this work a final (complete and detailed) analysis of DEI data taken with the CDD in the ELETTRA synchrotron light source facility in Trieste (Italy) in 2005, is presented and the applicability of both this new technique and the novel detector are discussed.

Photoluminescence properties of Si nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 matrix
Seyhan, Ayşe; Turan, Raşit; Department of Physics (2010)
This thesis examines the luminescence properties of nanoscale silicon (Si) by using spectroscopic techniques. Since the development of new optical devices requires understanding light emission mechanism optical spectroscopy has become more important tool in the analysis of these structures. In this thesis, Si nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 matrix will be studied. Photoluminescence (PL) and Time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy (TRPL) have been used to detect the light emission in UV-Vis-NIR range. Exp...
Material characterization with terahertz time-domain spectroscopy
Köseoğlu, Devrim; Bilikmen, Kadri Sinan; Department of Physics (2010)
Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy systems were developed and used for the anaylsis and characterization of various materials. By using ultra-fast Ti:Sapphire and Er-doped fiber lasers, terahertz time-domain spectrometers of different configurations were constructed and tested. To increase the accuracy and sensitivity of the measurements, the systems were optimized for spectroscopic analysis. MBE grown nominally undoped epitaxial GaAs samples were used for the spectroscopic measurements. These samples were ...
Localized surface plasmons in metal nanoparticles engineered by electron beam lithography
Güler, Urcan; Turan, Raşit; Department of Physics (2009)
In this study, optical behavior of metal nanoparticles having dimensions smaller than the wavelength of visible light is studied experimentally and numerically. Gold (Au) and silver (Ag) nanoparticles are studied due to their superior optical properties when compared to other metals. A compact code based on Discrete Dipole Approximation (DDA) is developed to compute extinction efficiencies of nanoparticles with various different properties such as material, dimension and geometry. To obtain self consistent ...
Fundamentals of a metal surface imaging system based on laser-optic principles
Bektaş, Murat; Altan, Hakan; Department of Physics (2009)
The confocal laser-scanning microscope (CLSM), known simply as a confocal microscope, is an important instrument which allows us to observe an object or a surface in three-dimensions with confocal microcopy technique. The basic difference of confocal microscopy is detecting the in- focused light, while the out of focus light is blocked out by the help of a pinhole. By this optical dissection ability of confocal microcopy, CLSM provides the images of investigated object or the surface with higher resolution ...
The Use of Terahertz Spectroscopy as a Sensitive Probe in Discriminating the Electronic Properties of Structurally Similar Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Parrott, Edward P. J.; Zeitler, J. Axel; McGregor, James; Oei, Shu-Pei; Ünalan, Hüsnü Emrah; Milne, William I.; Tessonnier, Jean-Philippe; Su, Dong Sheng; Schloegl, Robert; Gladden, Lynn F. (2009-10-19)
Terahertz: spectroscopy is used to definitively distinguish between two multi-walled carbon nanotubes (see figure), which have commercial applications in a number of advanced materials. Other techniques do not provide a sensitive discrimination of the measured properties. This observation is rationalized by considering the dielectric nature of the materials and the relationship of this to their structural differences.
