We demonstrate a technique to yield a direct and sensitive measurement of the thermo-optic coefficient (TOC) for light-emitting materials in optical microdisk resonators. Using photoluminescence from erbium-doped amorphous silicon nitride (a-SiN(x):Er) as an example, we show how the TOC can be extracted from thermally induced shifts in the resonant microdisk modes. For the highest-performance a-SiN(x):Er material composition, we find a TOC at 1.54 mu m of similar to 3 X 10(-5) K(-1) in the 300-500 K range. Additionally, our work demonstrates a convenient all-optical spectroscopic technique for sensitive temperature measurements, with a resolution of similar to 30 mK in this temperature range.

Microscopic measurement of penetration depth in YBa2Cu3O7-delta thin films by scanning Hall probe microscopy Oral, Ahmet; HUMPHREYS, RG; HENİNİ, M (1997-01-01) We have used a low noise scanning Hall probe microscope to measure the penetration depth microscopically in a YBa2Cu3O7-delta thin film as a function of temperature. The instrument has high magnetic field (approximate to 2.9 x 10(-8) T HZ(-1/2) at 77 K) and spatial resolution ( approximate to 0.85 mu m). Magnetic field profiles of single vortices in the superconducting film have been successfully measured and the microscopic penetration depth of the superconductor has been extracted. We find surprisingly la...
Transverse-Momentum and Pseudorapidity Distributions of Charged Hadrons in pp Collisions at root s=7 TeV Khachatryan, V.; et. al. (2010-07-01) Charged-hadron transverse-momentum and pseudorapidity distributions in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV are measured with the inner tracking system of the CMS detector at the LHC. The charged-hadron yield is obtained by counting the number of reconstructed hits, hit pairs, and fully reconstructed charged-particle tracks. The combination of the three methods gives a charged-particle multiplicity per unit of pseudorapidity dN(ch)/d eta vertical bar(vertical bar eta vertical bar<0.5) = 5.78 +/- 0.01(...
An Elastic-Plastic Beam Element Eren, Ahmet M; Darendeliler, Haluk; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2006) In this thesis, a two node nonlinear elastic-plastic beam finite element is developed to analyze large deformations. The system of equations are derived from virtual work principle, and the updated Lagrangian formulation is used. Material is assumed to be isotropic and rate insensitive obeying J2-flow rule. Work hardening characteristics of material is considered and all nonlinear terms are included. For the two node iso-parametric beam element a layered model is used to analyze through-the-thickness distri...
Oscillation criteria for third-order nonlinear functional differential equations AKTAŞ, MUSTAFA FAHRİ; Tiryaki, A.; Zafer, Ağacık (Elsevier BV, 2010-07-01) In this work, we are concerned with oscillation of third-order nonlinear functional differential equations of the form
Dielectric function of the two-dimensional electron liquid: An analytical fitting Bulutay, C; Tomak, Mehmet (1996-03-15) For electron-electron interactions in two-dimensional electronic systems the technique proposed by Singwi, Tosi, Land, and Sjolander (STLS) has been very promising. In this work, after showing the asymptotic behavior of the STLS local held correction we propose a simple expression for the local-held correction that contains two fitting parameters which are smoothly varying functions of the electronic density. The agreement of the fitting for the pair correlation function is remarkable. It further leads to a...
