Using the empirical tight binding method we have investigated the electronic properties of the Sin/Gen(001) strained superlattices as a function of the superlattice periodicity and the band misfit. For n ≥ 4 we have found that first and second conduction band states are localized in Si. The hole states localized in Ge appear for n ≥ 4. The difference between the direct and indirect band gaps is reduced from 2.01 eV for bulk Si to 0.01 eV for n=6 which can be considered to be quasi-direct. For the cases n=6 and n=8, the band gap might become direct for large values of band misfit.

Electronic band structure of stepped Si(100) surfaces Salman, SA; Katırcıoğlu, Şenay; Erkoc, S (2001-02-01) We have investigated the electronic band structure of five different stepped Si(100) surfaces by the empirical tight binding (ETB) method. It has been found that the interaction states have approximately the same energy values for the stepped surfaces with a similar dimer bond nature on the terraces. The single layer stepped models show different density-of-states features than the double layer stepped models.
Electronic, elastic and optical properties on the Zn1-xMgxSe mixed alloys Sürücü, Gökhan; Colakoglu, K.; Deligoz, E.; ÇİFTCİ, YASEMİN; Korozlu, N. (2011-02-01) The structural, elastic, electronic and optical properties of Zn1-xMgxSe ternary mixed crystals are investigated by utilizing the first-principles plane-wave pseudopotential method within the LDA approximations. Some basic physical properties, such as lattice constant, bulk modulus, second-order elastic constants (C-ij), Shear modulus, Young's modulus, Poison's ratio, Lame constants and the electronic band structures, are calculated. We have, also, predicted the optical properties such as dielectric functio...
Scattering of He from a Cu(110) surface Özder, Serhat; Erkoç, Şakir (Elsevier BV, 1987-4) Using the close-coupling method we have investigated the diffraction of He atoms from a Cu ( 110 ) surface. Interaction between He and the copper surface is represented by a corrugated Mie-type potential. The softness parameter β is “optimized” for a given incident energy (Ei) and incident angle (θi) so as to reproduce the experimental results. An empirical expression for the softness parameter β(Ei, θi) is obtained. Our results are in good agreement with previous calculations and experimental observations.
Adsorption of oxygen and hydrogen on stepped Si(100) surface Salman, SA; Katırcıoğlu, Şenay (1999-06-01) We have investigated the electronic band structure of oxygen and hydrogen adsorbed stepped Si(100) surface using the empirical tight binding method (ETB). The total electronic energies of the O-stepped and H-stepped Si(100) systems are calculated with a limited number of oxygen and hydrogen atoms separately to find out the most probable adsorption sites of the adatoms in the initial stage of oxidation and hydrogenation.
Determining the Elastic Properties of Modified Polystyrenes by Sound Velocity Measurements Oral, Imran; Guzel, Hatice; Ahmetli, Gulnare; Gür, Cemil Hakan (Wiley, 2011-09-15) The effect of the binding of various polyfunctional groups to polystyrene's (PS's) aromatic ring on the elastic properties of the PS were investigated by an ultrasonic method. Various sets of samples were prepared by chemical modification of pure PSs having different molecular weights with SA, maleic anhydride, and phthalic anhydride. The ultrasonic wave velocities of modified PSs were measured with the pulse-echo method at room temperature by a computer-controlled analyzer and a digital oscilloscope. The v...
