The valence subband energies in the presence of an electric-field are calculated using the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. The 1s- and 2p(+/-)-like acceptor states in the presence of a magnetic field are then calculated variationally. The effects of the spatially dependent screening function epsilon(r) on the calculation of the transition energies are specifically investigated. The use of a constant epsilon(o) is shown to yield better agreement with experimental results.

Katırcıoğlu, Şenay (Wiley, 1993-06-01)
The stable structures of SinH2m (n = 1 to 6, m = 1 to 3) clusters are investigated by the total electronic energy calculation using an empirical tight-binding (ETB) method. It seems that bridged H-bond models are also possible for small Si(n)H(m) clusters.
Critical behaviour of the polarization, tilt angle, electric susceptibility and the specific heat close to the SmA-ferroelectric SmC (SmC*) phase transitions
Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit; Kilit, E. (Informa UK Limited, 2006-01-01)
This study gives the temperature dependence of the two order parameters, namely, polarization P and the tilt angle theta, when there is a biquadratic coupling P-2 theta(2) in the expansion of the Landau free energy. This applies to the electric-field-induced SmA-Ferro-Electric SmC (SmC*) phase transition. From this expansion of the Landau free energy in terms of the polarization and the tilt angle, we obtain the temperature dependence of the electric susceptibility chi and the electric field dependence of t...
Nonlinear Seebeck and Peltier effects in quantum point contacts
Çipiloğlu, Mustafa A; Turgut, Sadi; Tomak, Mehmet (Wiley, 2004-09-01)
The charge and entropy currents across a quantum point contact are expanded as a series in powers of the applied bias voltage and the temperature difference. After that, the expansions of the Seebeck voltage in temperature difference and the Peltier heat in current are obtained. With a suitable choice of the average temperature and chemical potential, the lowest order nonlinear term in both cases appear to be of third order. The behavior of the third-order coefficients in both cases are then investigated fo...
ELECTRON POLARIZATION IN QUANTUM-WELLS WITH UNIFORM ELECTRIC-FIELD

The polarization of a quantum electron confined in square, parabolic, and triangular quantum wells is calculated numerically. The aim of the present calculations is to compare the results for various geometries.
RAMAN-SPECTROSCOPY OF SOFT AND RIGID MODES IN FERROELECTRIC TLINS2
BURLAKOV, VM; RYABOV, AP; YAKHEEV, MP; VINOGRADOV, EA; MELNIK, NN; Hasanlı, Nızamı (Wiley, 1989-06-01)
Low‐frequency Raman spectra of a TlInS2 single crystal in the vicinity of a ferroelectric phase transition are reported. In the ferroelectric phase a soft mode interacting with some rigid modes is observed. The temperature dependence of the soft mode frequency is found to be proportional to (Tc – T)1/2. An unusual behaviour of the rigid mode (ω = 20 cm−1) is observed. This fact is interpreted in terms of inherent lattice defects which cause nonhomogeneous broadening.
