The main physical properties of Tl4Se3S single crystals were investigated for the first time. Particularly, the crystal data, Debye temperature, dark electrical resistivity and Hall effect in addition to the temperature dependent current-voltage characteristics and photosensitivity of the Ag/Tl4Se3S Schottky barrier diode were studied. The X-ray diffraction patterns have revealed that the crystal exhibited a single phase of tetragonal structure belonging to the D-4h(18) - 14mcm space group. A Debye temperature of 100 K was calculated using the results of the X-ray diffraction analysis. The dark electrical resistivity and Hall-effect measurements indicated that the samples exhibits p-type conduction with an electrical resistivity, carrier concentration and Hall mobility of 6.20 x 10(3) Omega cm, 1.16 x 10(12) cm(-3) and 873 cm(2) V-1 s(-1), respectively. The crystals were observed to have Schottky diode properties. The Ag/Tl4Se3S Schottky barrier device bias voltage was observed to depend on the crystal direction and on temperature. It was found that the calculated energy barrier height decreased and the diode ideality factor increased with temperature decreasing. The photosensitivity-light intensity dependence of this device was found to be linear reflecting the ability of using it in optoelectronics.

Thermally stimulated current measurements in as-grown TIGaSeS layered single crystals YILDIRIM, TACETTİN; Hasanlı, Nızamı (Elsevier BV, 2009-11-01) Charge carrier traps in as-grown TIGaSeS layered single crystals were studied using thermally stimulated current measurements. The investigations were performed in temperatures ranging from 10 to 100 K. The experimental evidences were found for the presence of one shallow hole trapping center in TIGaSeS, located at 12 meV from the valence band. The trap parameters have been calculated using various methods of analysis, and these agree well with each other. Its capture cross-section and concentration have be...
Thermally Stimulated Current Study of Shallow Traps in As-Grown TlInSe2 Chain Crystals Hasanlı, Nızamı (Institute of Physics, Polish Academy of Sciences, 2011-03-01) Thermally stimulated current measurements were carried out on as-grown TlInSe2 single crystals. The investigations were performed in temperatures ranging from 10 to 260 K with heating rate of 0.3 K s(-1). The analysis of the data revealed the hole traps levels located at 6 and 57 meV. The activation energies of the traps have been determined using various methods of analysis, and they agree with each other. The concentration (2.8 x 10(13) and 3.4 x 10(12) cm(-3)) and capture cross section (4.1 x 10(-28) and...
Structural Transitions in Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Droplets Zhou, Ye; Büküşoğlu, Emre; Martinez-Gonzalez, Jose A.; Rahimi, Mohammad; Roberts, Tyler F; Zhang, Rui; Wang, Xiaoguang; Abbott, Nicholas L; de Pablo, Juan Jose (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2016-07-01) Confinement of cholesteric liquid crystals (ChLC) into droplets leads to a delicate interplay between elasticity, chirality, and surface energy. In this work, we rely on a combination of theory and experiments to understand the rich morphological behavior that arises from that balance. More specifically, a systematic study of micrometer-sized ChLC droplets is presented as a function of chirality and surface energy (or anchoring). With increasing chirality, a continuous transition is observed from a twisted ...
Modelling of non-uniform DC driven glow discharge in argon gas Rafatov, İsmail; BILIKMEN, S. (Elsevier BV, 2007-07-16) Physical properties of non-uniform DC-driven glow discharge in argon at pressure 1 torr are analyzed numerically. Spatially two-dimensional axial-symmetric model is based on the diffusion-drift theory of gas discharge. Results presented compare favorably with the classic theory of glow discharges and exhibit good agreement with the experimental result. Comparison with the result of spatially one-dimensional model is performed. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All fights reserved.
Shallow trapping center parameters in as-grown AgIn5S8 crystals determined by thermally stimulated current measurements YILDIRIM, TACETTİN; Hasanlı, Nızamı (Wiley, 2009-12-01) Thermally stimulated current measurements were carried out on as-grown AgIn5S8 single crystals. The investigations were performed in temperatures ranging from 10 to 70 K with heating rate of 0.2 K/s. The analysis of the data revealed the electron trap level located at 5 meV. The activation energies of the traps have been determined using various methods of analysis, and they agree with each other. The calculation for these traps yielded 2.2 x 10(-25) cm(2) for capture cross section and 6.1 x 10(12) cm(-3) f...
