High quality nonpolar a-plane GaN templates were grown by utilizing sidewall lateral epitaxial overgrowth (SLEO) technique with threading dislocation density of similar to 10(6)-10(7) cm(-2). 360 run GaN/AlGaN multiple quantum well ultraviolet light emitting diodes were grown with metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Reduced defect density SLEO a-plane, planar a-plane, and planar c-plane templates were co-loaded for device growth and processed together in order to make relative device performance comparison. For SLEO a-plane LEDs EL peak position was measured at 360 nm and it was independent of drive current, The linewidth of the emission was 7 nm. The series resistance of these diodes was as low as 16,5 0 and the forward voltage was measured as 4.08 V at 20 mA. The external quantum efficiency of the high quality SLEO a-plane devices was similar to 275x higher than planar a-plane devices. The highest output power was realized at 200 mA as 65 mu W. The effect of contact geometry on electrical and optical characteristics of the devices was also discussed.

Direct measurement of molecular stiffness and damping in confined water layers JEFFERY, STEVE; HOFFMANN, PETER M; PETHİCA, JOHN B; RAMANUJAN, CHANDRA; ÖZER, HAKAN ÖZGÜR; Oral, Ahmet (American Physical Society (APS), 2004-08-01) We present direct and linear measurements of the normal stiffness and damping of a confined, few molecule thick water layer. The measurements were obtained by use of a small amplitude (0.36 Angstrom), off-resonance atomic force microscopy technique. We measured stiffness and damping oscillations revealing up to seven molecular layers separated by 2.526+/-0.482 Angstrom. Relaxation times could also be calculated and were found to indicate a significant slow-down of the dynamics of the system as the confining...
Polysilicon thin films fabricated by solid phase crystallization using reformed crystallization annealing technique Özmen, Özge Tüzün; Karaman, M.; Turan, Raşit (Elsevier BV, 2014-01-31) In this work, a reformed crystallization annealing technique is presented for the solid phase crystallization (SPC) of amorphous silicon (a-Si) on SiNx-coated quartz substrate. This technique includes a two-step annealing process which consists of a low-temperature (475 degrees C) classical furnace annealing for nucleation of Si and a high-temperature (900 degrees C) grain growth process of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) during thermal annealing in classical tube furnace. The aim of this reformed two-ste...
Electroluminescence generated by a metal oxide semiconductor light emitting diode (MOS-LED) with Si nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 layers by ion implantation Kulakci, M.; Serincan, U.; Turan, Raşit (IOP Publishing, 2006-12-01) Electroluminescence ( EL) and photoluminescence ( PL) measurements were conducted on Si-implanted SiO2 layers as a function of process and measurement parameters. Measurable light emission was observed from the metal oxide semiconductor light emitting diode ( MOS-LED) when holes are injected from the substrate. It was shown that major PL and EL emissions have the same origin. However, two important differences were observed between EL and PL spectra. The first one is the light emission from the Si substrate...
Solid phase epitaxial thickening of boron and phosphorus doped polycrystalline silicon thin films formed by aluminium induced crystallization technique on glass substrate Ozmen, O. Tuzun; Karaman, M.; Sedani, S. H.; Sagban, H. M.; Turan, Raşit (Elsevier BV, 2019-11-01) Aluminium induced crystallization (AIC) technique can be used to form the high-quality and large-grained polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin films, which are with the thickness of similar to 200 nm and used as a seed layer, on silicon nitride coated glass substrate. Thanks to aluminium metal in AIC process, the natural doping of AIC thin films is p(+) type (similar to 2 x 10(18) cm(-3)). On the other hand, recombination of carriers can be controlled by partial doping through the defects that may have adv...
Mesh stiffness of micro-spur gears by finite element formulations based on modified couple stress theory Pehlivanoglu, Yucel; Aydogan, M. Ozgur; SABUNCUOĞLU, BARIŞ (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-05-15) Finite element formulations developed for micro-sized structures are utilized for the determination of mesh stiffness of micro-spur gear pairs. The equations are based on Modified Couple Stress Theory developed for micro-beams. Timoshenko and Euler-Bernoulli type formulations are used separately to observe the difference. Calculations are performed for micro-gear pairs having two different module types and the stiffness of both double and single mesh regions are obtained. The results reveal the size effect ...
