Although the stable structures and other physical properties of small Ag-n and Au-n, were investigated in the literature, phonon calculations are not done yet. In this work, we present plane-wave pseudopotential calculations based on density-functional formalism. The effect of using the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and local density approximation (LDA) to determine the geometric and electronic structure and normal mode calculations of Ag-n and Au-n, is studied up to eight atoms. Pure Au-n and Ag-n clusters favor planar configurations. We calculated binding energy per atom. We have also calculated the normal mode calculations and also scanning tunneling microscope (STM) images for small clusters for the first time.

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 ...
Structural characterization of Zn-In-Se thin films Gullu, H. H.; Parlak, Mehmet (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2017-02-20) In this study, structural properties of the Zn In Se (ZIS) thin films deposited by thermal evaporation method were investigated. The as-grown and annealed ZIS films were found in polycrystalline structure with the main orientation in (112) direction. The compositional analysis of the films showed that they were in Zn-rich behavior and there was a slight change in the elemental contribution to the structure with annealing process. Raman analysis was carried out to determine the crystalline structure and the ...
Non-extensive study of rigid and non-rigid rotators Bagci, GB; Sever, Ramazan; Tezcan, C (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2004-05-10) The isotropic rigid and non-rigid rotators in the framework of Tsallis statistics are studied in the high and low temperature limits. The generalized partition functions, internal energies and heat capacities are calculated. Classical results of the Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics have been recovered as non-extensivity parameter approaches to 1. It has also been observed that non-extensivity parameter q behaves like a scale parameter in the low temperature regime of the rigid rotator model.
Quantum mechanical treatment of the problem of constraints in non-extensive formalism revisited Bagci, G. B.; Arda, Altug; Sever, Ramazan (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2007-07-10) The purity of Werner state in non-extensive formalism associated with two different constraints has been calculated in a previous paper by Bagci et al.(17) Two different results have been obtained corresponding to ordinary probability and escort probability. The former has been shown to result in negative values thereby leading authors to deduce the advantage of escort probabilities over ordinary probabilities. However, these results have only been for a limited interval of q values which lie between 0 and ...
CRITICAL BEHAVIOR OF THE SPECIFIC HEAT IN THE VICINITY OF THE TRANSITION TEMPERATURE FOR S-TRIAZINE Kurt, M.; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt, 2009-04-10) The critical behavior of the specific heat is studied in s-triazine (C3N3H3). Using the experimental data for the C-P, the temperature dependence of the specific heat is analyzed according to a power-law formula and the values of the critical exponent for C-P are extracted in the vicinity of the transition temperature (T-C=198.07K).
