We have developed a formalism for calculating the line scans of the scanning-tunneling microscopy from the realistic substrate and tip wave functions. The tip wave functions are calculated self-consistently by using a spherical jellium corresponding to a particular metal with various radii. This formalism provides a framework to analyze the experimental line scans, and to deduce information about the clean and adatom covered surfaces, and the radius and height of the tip, as well. We have found that the contribution of a tip wave function in tunneling current is strongly dependent on its symmetry

ANALYSIS OF MILLIMETER WAVE-GUIDES ON ANISOTROPIC SUBSTRATES USING THE 3-DIMENSIONAL TRANSMISSION-LINE MATRIX-METHOD BULUTAY, C; PRASAD, S (1993-06-01) Three-dimensional condensed asymmetrical node, variable grid, transmission-line matrix (TLM) method has been used in analyzing several millimeter waveguides on anisotropic substrates. The dispersion characteristics of image guides together with field and energy confinement properties at millimeter-wave frequencies have been investigated. Edge coupled microstrip line on a uniaxial substrate is analyzed for the even and odd mode dispersion characteristics. Finally the same analysis is repeated for bilateral f...
Simulation of Directional Microphones in Digital Waveguide Mesh-Based Models of Room Acoustics Hacıhabiboğlu, Hüseyin; Günel Kılıç, Banu (2010-02-01) Digital waveguide mesh (DWM) models are time-domain numerical methods providing computationally simple solutions for wave propagation problems. They have been used in various acoustical modeling and audio synthesis applications including synthesis of musical instrument sounds and speech, and modeling of room acoustics. A successful model of room acoustics should be able to account for source and receiver directivity. Methods for the simulation of directional sources in DWM models were previously proposed. T...
Spatial modulation of THz beams for imaging applications Altan, Hakan (null; 2015-10-16) Techniques based on compressive sensing allow us to image fields at faster rates and at our labs in METU we have been experimenting with imaging based on spatial modulation of THz beams using single pixel detectors [1]. However these studies are based on discrete patterns using metal sheets. These techniques would benefit greatly if we could modulate the THz field. For example, optical modulators play a key role in optoelectronics and communication systems. Electro-optic, acousto-optic and thermo-optic effe...
Real-Time Detection of Interharmonics and Harmonics of AC Electric Arc Furnaces on GPU Framework Uz-Logoglu, Eda; Salor, Ozgul; Ermiş, Muammer (2019-11-01) In this paper, a method based on the multiple synchronous reference frame analysis is recommended and implemented to detect time-varying harmonics and interharmonics of rapidly fluctuating asymmetrical industrial loads. The experimental work has been carried out on a typical three-phase alternating current arc furnace installation. In the recommended method, the reference frame is rotated in both directions at speeds corresponding to the positive and negative sequences of all harmonics and all interharmonic...
Numerical analysis of long wavelength infrared HgCdTe photodiodes Kocer, H.; Arslan, Y.; Beşikci, Cengiz (2012-01-01) We present a detailed investigation of the performance limiting factors of long and very long wavelength infrared (LWIR and VLWIR) p on n Hg1-xCdxTe detectors through numerical simulations at 77 K incorporating all considerable generation-recombination (G-R) mechanisms including trap assisted tunneling (TAT), Shockley-Read-Hall (SRH), Auger and radiative processes. The results identify the relative strengths of the dark current generation mechanisms by numerically extracting the contribution of each G-R mec...
