The figure of merit, ZT, for a one-dimensional conductor displaying a Lorentzian resonant transmission probability is calculated. The optimum working conditions for largest ZT values are determined. It is found that, the resonance energy has to be adjusted to be several resonance widths away from the Fermi level. Similarly it is better for the temperature to be equal to several resonance widths. The approximate relationships, which can be a fairly good guide for designing devices, between different parameters tinder optimum working conditions are given.

Exact solution of the time-dependent harmonic plus an inverse harmonic potential with a time-dependent electromagnetic field Yuce, C (2003-12-01) In this paper, the problem of the charged harmonic plus an inverse harmonic oscillator with time-dependent mass and frequency in a time-dependent electromagnetic field is investigated. It is reduced to the problem of the inverse harmonic oscillator with time-independent parameters and the exact wave function is obtained.
Finite mean free paths and the electrical resistivity of liquid simple metals and binary alloys Khajil, T. M. A.; Daver, Fugen; Tomak, Mehmet (Wiley, 1986-11-1) The finite mean‐free‐path correction to the Ziman formalism of the resistivity for liquid metals and some binary alloys are calculated using the Ferraz‐March approach.
Determination of the strong coupling constant alpha(S)(m(Z)) from measurements of inclusive W-+/- and Z boson production cross sections in proton-proton collisions at root s=7 and 8 TeV Sirunyan, A. M.; et. al. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-06-01) Twelve measurements of inclusive cross sections of W-+/- and Z boson production, performed in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, are compared with perturbative quantum chromodynamics calculations at next-to-next- to-leading order (NNLO) accuracy obtained with the CT14, HERAPDF2.0, MMHT14, and NNPDF3.0 parton distribution functions (PDFs). Data and theory agree well for all PDF sets, taking into account the experimental and theoretical uncertainties. A novel procedure is empl...
Interacting electrons in a 2D quantum dot Akman, N; Tomak, Mehmet (1999-04-01) The exact numerical diagonalization of the Hamiltonian of a 2D circular quantum dot is performed for 2, 3, and 4 electrons. The results an compared with those of the perturbation theory. Our numerical results agree reasonably well for small values of the dimensionless coupling constant lambda = a/a(B) where a is the dot radius and a(B) is the effective Bohr radius. Exact diagonalization results are compared with the classical predictions, and they are found to be almost coincident for large lambda values.
Nonlinear optical properties of semiconductor heterostructures Yıldırım, Hasan; Tomak, Mehmet; Department of Physics (2006) The nonlinear optical properties of semiconductor heterostructures, such as GaAsAl/GaAs alloys, are studied with analytic and numerical methods on the basis of quantum mechanics. Particularly, second and third-order nonlinear optical properties of quantum wells described by the various types of confining potentials are considered within the density matrix formalism. We consider a Pöschl-Teller type potential which has been rarely considered in this area. It has a tunable asymmetry parameter, making it a goo...
