A systematic experimental study is carried out to investigate microstructure selection over a very wide range of undercooling at the interface in the Al-Sm system by using a combination of the Bridgman, laser and melt spinning techniques, which give increasing interface undercooling. Eutectic microstructure forms at low undercooling, while metallic glass forms at very large undercooling. Experiments are designed to obtain a sharp transition from the eutectic to glass during the growth of eutectic as the interface undercooling increases with growth. The eutectic spacing at the transition is characterized, and the results are analyzed by using a model of eutectic growth that incorporates non-equilibrium effects at the interface. It is shown that a very large undercooling at the interface, required for glass formation, is obtained due to the combined effects of the sharp decrease in the diffusion coefficient, or the sharp increase in viscosity of the liquid, with undercooling in this system and the large undercooling required for the attachment kinetics at the compound liquid interface in the eutectic structure.

Analyzing the Information Distribution in the fMRI Measurements by Estimating the Degree of Locality Onal, Itir; Ozay, Mete; Firat, Orhan; GİLLAM, İLKE; Yarman Vural, Fatoş Tunay (2013-07-07) In this study, we propose a new method for analyzing and representing the distribution of discriminative information for data acquired via functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI). For this purpose, we form a spatially local mesh with varying size, around each voxel, called the seed voxel. The relationship among each seed voxel and its neighbors is estimated using a linear regression model by minimizing the square error. Then, we estimate the optimal mesh size that represents the connections among each ...
Interband optical absorption obtained by pseudopotential method for type-II InAs/GaSb SL photodetectors Akel, Kazim; Hoştut, Mustafa ; Akın, Tayfun; Ergun, Yuksel (2021-05-01) We have calculated interband optical absorption for InAs/GaSb based type-II superlattice (SL) structures. The empirical pseudopotential method (EPM) has been used as an alternative to the k.p method since it is less sophisticated while providing similar results in the mid wavelength infrared range and long wavelength infrared range atmospherics bands for comparison. EPM results show that the bandgap wavelengths of SLs have been predicted with the underestimating of 0.4 mu m. This corresponds to an uncertain...
Pentacene Multilayers on Ag(111) Surface METE, ERSEN; Demiroglu, Ilker; Danışman, Mehmet Fatih; Ellialtioglu, Sinasi (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2010-02-18) The structural profiles and electronic properties of pentacene (C22H14) multilayers on Ag(111) surface has been studied within the density functional theory framework. We have performed first-principle total energy calculations based on the projector-augmented wave method to investigate the initial growth patterns of pentacene (Pn) on Ag(111) surface. In its bulk phase, pentacene crystallizes with a triclinic symmetry while a thin film phase having an orthorhombic unit cell is energetically less favorable b...
A Bulk-Micromachined Three-Axis Capacitive MEMS Accelerometer on a Single Die TEZ, SERDAR; Aykutlu, Ulas; Torunbalci, Mustafa Mert; Akın, Tayfun (2015-10-01) This paper presents a high-performance three-axis capacitive microelectromechanical system (MEMS) accelerometer implemented by fabricating individual lateral and vertical differential accelerometers in the same die. The fabrication process is based on the formation of a glass-silicon-glass multi-stack. First, a 35-mu m thick < 111 > silicon structural layer of an Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) wafer is patterned with deep reactive ion etching (DRIE) and attached on a base glass substrate with anodic bonding, wh...
Magnetic monitoring approach to nanocrystallization kinetics in Fe-based bulk amorphous alloy Duman, Nagehan; Akdeniz, Mahmut Vedat; Mehrabov, Amdulla (2013-12-01) Much of the recent metallic glass research is devoted to controlling the crystallization of amorphous precursors with the purpose of obtaining amorphous matrix nanocrystalline alloys which combine unmatched soft magnetic properties with good mechanical properties. Therefore, it is crucial to have better understanding of crystallization mechanisms and thermal dependence of nanocrystals that are formed by annealing. This study deals with the nanociystallization kinetics of Cu-modified Fe-Co-Ni-B-Si-Nb bulk am...
