The effect of alloying elements on the self-diffusion behavior of Al under electromigration conditions was investigated using nonequilibrium molecular dynamics. The corresponding defect structures were also characterized energetically by Mott-Littleton approach. Pd, Cu, Mn, and Sn were found to be the most effective alloying elements that may retard the electromigration failure by increasing the activation energy for self-diffusion of Al. This increase in the activation energy is believed to be either because of the dragging effect that may be experienced in a coupled substitutional-vacancy defect structure or the energy penalty for the separation of this couple.

Eigensolution, expectation values and thermodynamic properties of the screened Kratzer potential Ikot, A. N.; Okorie, U. S.; Sever, Ramazan; Rampho, G. J. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-08-12) Within the framework of non-relativistic quantum mechanics via the Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) method, we obtained the energy eigenvalues and the corresponding normalized eigenfunctions of a newly proposed screened Kratzer potential for lithium hydride (LiH) and hydrogen chloride (HCl) diatomic molecules. With the help of the Hellman-Feynman theorem, the expressions for the expectation values of the square of inverse of position, r(-2), inverse of position, r(-1), kinetic energy, T, and square of momentum, p(2), ...
Dynamical correlations in quasi-one-dimensional electron gas Bulutay, C; Tanatar, B (IOP Publishing, 1998-09-01) We study the short-range correlations in a quasi-one-dimensional electron gas within the dynamical version of the self-consistent field theory. The static structure factor exhibits a peak structure at low densities. The zero-frequency limit of the dynamic local-field factor has structure not encountered in the previous applications of the present method. The large oscillations at low densities observed in the pair-correlation function indicates a transition to a partially ordered state.
Singularities of spectra of infrared reflection of tertiary compounds of the type T1BX2 Hasanlı, Nızamı; Khomutova, M.D.; Sardarly, R.M.; Tagorov, V.I. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1977-07-01) The frequencies of lattice vibrations are calculated for compounds of the type T1BX2 on the basis of the linear-chain model. The calculated frequencies are compared with experimental values for TlGaS2 and TlGaSe2. The good agreement between the calculated and experimental frequencies serves as proof of the applicability of the linear-chain model to compounds of the T1BX2 type. The proposed method of calculation of frequencies makes it possible to predict the theoretical frequencies of lattice vibrations of ...
Observed nonlinearities in a DC semiconductor-gas discharge system ÇAYLI, YAVUZ KERİM; MANSUROĞLU, DOĞAN; Uzun Kaymak, İlker Ümit (Canadian Science Publishing, 2018-07-01) Nonlinear behaviour of a direct current (DC) driven semiconductor-gas discharge plasma is investigated experimentally. The setup consists of two planar electrodes separated by a gap of 1 mm. Plasma glow is generated between a semiconductor cathode and a transparent anode using nitrogen gas at partial atmospheric pressure. Nonlinear behavior of the discharge is investigated by varying the applied DC voltage while monitoring the plasma current (I), voltage (V), and the optical emission, (i.e., amplified volta...
Defect-controlled transport properties of metallic atoms along carbon nanotube surfaces Barinov, Alexei; Toffoli, Hande; Fabris, Stefano; Gregoratti, Luca; Aballe, Lucia; Dudin, Pavel; Baroni, Stefano; Kiskinova, Maya (American Physical Society (APS), 2007-07-01) The diffusion mechanism of indium atoms along multiwalled carbon nanotubes is studied by means of photoemission spectromicroscopy and density functional theory calculations. The unusually high activation temperature for diffusion (approximate to 700 K), the complex C 1s and In 3d(5/2) spectra, and the calculated adsorption energies and diffusion barriers suggest that the indium transport is controlled by the concentration of defects in the C network and proceeds via hopping of indium adatoms between C vacan...
