The most stable structures for the adsorption and dissociation of phosphine (PH3) on SiGe(100) (2 x 1) surface have been investigated by relative total energy calculations based on density functional theory. According to the optimization calculations, PH3 is adsorbed on the Si (down) and Ge (down) site of the Ge-Si and Ge-Ge dimers on SiGe surface, respectively. The PH2 and H products have been found to be thermodynamically favored in the dissociation path of PH3 on SiGe surface when the system is thermally activated. Although PH3 is adsorbed on the Ge-Ge and Ge-Si dimers directly, it dissociates on the SiGe surface by passing through a transition state. The asymmetric Ge-Si and Ge-Ge dimers on SiGe surface are found to be approximately symmetric after the dissociation of PH3 on the surface. The present work has showed that PH2 prefers to be adsorbed on Ge site of the Ge-Si dimer. Therefore, the adsorption of PH2 on Ge site of the Ge-Si dimer, while PH3 being dissociated on the Si site, has indicated the migration of PH2 on SiGe surface.

Dissociation of Ph-3 and AsH3 on Ge(100)(2x1) surface Katırcıoğlu, Şenay (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2007-06-01) The most stable structures for the dissociation of phosphine and arsine on Ge(100)(2x1) surface have been investigated by relative total energy calculations based on Density Functional Theory. It has been found that the thermodynamically preferred structures in the dissociation path of phosphine and arsine are the same; PH2 and AsH2 products prefer to be on a single Ge dimer bond, but PH and AsH prefer to be between the adjacent Ge dimers. According to the optimization calculations, the dissociation path st...
Thermal lattice scattering mobility and carrier effective mass in intrinsic Tl2InGaTe4 single crystals Qasrawi, A. F.; Hasanlı, Nızamı (IOP Publishing, 2007-04-18) Systematic structural, dark electrical resistivity and Hall coefficient measurements have been carried out on n- type Tl2InGaTe4 single crystals. The data from x- ray powder diffraction allowed determination of the tetragonal unit cell lattice parameters. Analysis of the electrical resistivity and carrier concentration, which was recorded in the temperature range 210 - 350 K, reveals the intrinsic type of conduction with an average energy band gap of 0.85 eV. The temperature- dependent Hall mobility was obs...
Optoelectronic properties of Tl3InSe4 single crystals QASRAWI, ATEF FAYEZ HASAN; Hasanlı, Nızamı (Informa UK Limited, 2010-01-01) The crystal structure, temperature-dependent electrical conductivity, Hall coefficient, current-voltage characteristics, absorption spectra and temperature- and illumination-dependent photoconductivity of Tl3InSe4 single crystals were investigated. Tl3InSe4 crystallises in a body-centred lattice with tetragonal symmetry and belongs to the space group [image omitted]. The crystals are extrinsic p-type semiconductors and exhibit a conductivity conversion from p- to n-type at a critical temperature, Tc, of 283...
Long-time behaviour of solutions to a singular heat equation with an application to hydrodynamics Kitavtsev, Georgy; Taranets, Roman M. (European Mathematical Society Publishing House, 2020-01-01) In this paper, we extend the results of [8] by proving exponential asymptotic H-1-convergence of solutions to a one-dimensional singular heat equation with L-2-source term that describe evolution of viscous thin liquid sheets while considered in the Lagrange coordinates. Furthermore, we extend this asymptotic convergence result to the case of a time inhomogeneous source. This study has also independent interest for the porous medium equation theory.
Adsorption sites of the products of GeH4 on asymmetric Si(100)(2 x 1) surface Katırcıoğlu, Şenay (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2004-03-30) The decomposition of GeH4 on Si(100)(2 x 1) was investigated on different adsorption models of fragments using density functional theory method. The most probable adsorption model of fragments corresponding to the growth steps of SiGe film has been obtained by geometry optimization and single value total energy calculations. The relative adsorption energies of GeH3, GeH2 and GeH have been found to be -5.6, -5.1, and -4.5 eV for their most probable adsorption models respectively. It has been found that, the ...
