A phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau theory of charge-density waves is presented. It yields, in the absence of pinning impurities, a manifold of stable (equal-energy) states that are independent of the phase of the wave. The pinning of these waves by impurities (both weak and strong pinning) is examined in detail and spectra for various impurity distributions are analyzed in detail. Strong dependence on the wave phase, change in harmonic content, and phase shifts are common features, in addition to the appearance of a continuous background. There is also a plethora of metastable states, many of which have energies close to the ground state. Comparison between the proposed theory and experiment in NbSe3 is satisfactory.

Perturbation-Asymptotic Series Approach for an Electromagnetic Wave Problem in an Epsilon Near Zero (ENZ) Material Akkaya, Murat Koray; YILMAZ, ASIM EGEMEN; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (2022-01-01) Electromagnetic waves present very interesting features while the permittivity of the environment approaches to zero. This property known as ENZ (Epsilon Near Zero) has been analysed with the perturbation approach-asymptotic analysis method. Wave equations have been solved by space transformation instead of phasor domain solution and the results compared. Wave equation is non-dimensionalised in order to allow asymptotic series extension. Singular perturbation theory applied to the Wave Equation and second o...
Wave Propagation in Poroelastic Media Saturated by Two Fluids Tuncay, Kağan (ASME International, 1997-6-1) <jats:p>A theory of wave propagation in isotropic poroelastic media saturated by two immiscible Newtonian fluids is presented. The macroscopic constitutive relations, and mass and momentum balance equations are obtained by volume averaging the microscale balance and constitutive equations and assuming small deformations. Momentum transfer terms are expressed in terms of intrinsic and relative permeabilities assuming the validity of Darcy’s law. The coefficients of macroscopic constitutive relations are expr...
Surface energy and excess charge in (1x2)-reconstructed rutile TiO2(110) from DFT plus U calculations Unal, Hatice; METE, ERSEN; Ellialtıoğlu, Süleyman Şinasi (2011-09-09) Physically reasonable electronic structures of reconstructed rutile TiO2(110)-(1x2) surfaces were studied using density functional theory (DFT) supplemented with Hubbard U on-site Coulomb repulsion acting on the d electrons, the so called DFT + U approach. Two leading reconstruction models proposed by Onishi and Iwasawa [Surf. Sci. Lett. 313, 783 (1994)] and Park and coworkers [Phys. Rev. B 75, 245415 (2007)] were compared in terms of their thermodynamic stabilities.
Quantum mechanics on curved hypersurfaces Olpak, Mehmet Ali; Tekin, Bayram; Department of Physics (2010) In this work, Schrödinger and Dirac equations will be examined in geometries that confine the particles to hypersurfaces. For this purpose, two methods will be considered. The first method is the thin layer method which relies on explicit use of geometrical relations and the squeezing of a certain coordinate of space (or spacetime). The second is Dirac’s quantization procedure involving the modification of canonical quantization making use of the geometrical constraints. For the Dirac equation, only the fir...
Analysis of perfectly matched double negative layers via complex coordinate transformations Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (2006-12-01) Complex coordinate transformations are introduced for the analysis of time-harmonic electromagnetic wave propagation in perfectly matched double negative layers. The layer is perfectly matched to free space in the sense that any incident plane wave is transmitted through the free space-material interface without reflection, irrespective of the frequency and angle of incidence of the plane wave. The material constitutive parameters are obtained by mapping spatial coordinates into a manifold in complex space....
