The photocurrent decay in high resistivity, n-type zinc-compensated silicon photoconductors has been measured in the temperature range 230–300 °K. The bulk portion of the decay can be resolved into two strongly temperature-dependent exponential components. A bulk recombination model based on two defect levels was used to analyze the experimental data. Reasonably good agreement between experiment and theory could be obtained only if the two centers were assumed to be the photoconductivity sensitizing, double acceptor Zn−3/2, and the V−3/2 level due to the vacancy which is also a double acceptor. In contrast, the measurements could only be partly explained with models in which the V−3/2 level was replaced by the E center, the lower zinc level Zn−1/2, or the A center. Moreover, unreasonable values for some of the material constants had to be assumed with these latter models.

Abstract A new evaluation method is presented to analyse the temperature dependance of reactions with rates that can be separated into a temperature dependent and a concentration dependent part. The proposed method allows to evaluate isothermal, adiabatic, isoperibolic and temperature programmed measurements in an unified manner. To determine the activation energy an Arrhenius law but no explicite kinetic model has to be assumed. The application of the method is demonstrated using experimental data of different reactions from former investigations.

Twisted and Coiled Polymers (TCP) muscles are actuators that generate force and linear displacement in response to thermal stimuli. Their length changes significantly by heating due to a high negative coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). A mathematical model for predicting the behavior of TCP muscles is essential for exploiting maximum advantage from these actuators and also controlling them. In this work, a simple, practical, and accurate model for predicting the displacement of TCP muscles, as a function of input electrical actuation and load, is derived. The problem is broken down into two, i.e. modeling of the thermal and thermo-elastic part. For the first part, a differential equation with changing electrical resistance term is derived. In the next step, by using a temperature-dependent modulus of elasticity and CTE as well as taking the geometry of muscles into account, an expression for displacement as a function of temperature and load is proposed. Experimental actuation data of a TCP muscle is used for verifying the model and investigating its accuracy. The thermal part shows a good agreement between the simulation and experimental result. The displacement part also has a good accuracy for medium and high actuation currents but there is a mismatch in very high current magnitudes. The cause of the discrepancy is explained and recommendations are made for the best performance of TCP muscles.

Abstract The objective of this project was to develop a computer model for the helical rotor expander which can be used to determine performance potential and to facilitate optimization of expander design. Testing has shown that this energy conversion device has substantial potential advantages over conventional turbines in very high temperature cycles and for two-phase flow. However, the tests have been limited to particular non-optimized designs, and a model is badly needed to assess viable design improvements and their effects on performance. A computer model was developed to simulate the geometric and thermal/fluid characteristics of the expander to give power output, mass flow rate, and efficiency versus rotational speed for any chosen design configuration. The model has been tested against experimental data from expanders running on nitrogen gas and two-phase steam with good agreement. It is now ready and available for use in developing and evaluating designs for new applications of the helical rotor expander.

The effect of using a temperature dependent pairing term in back-shifted Fermi-gas (BSFG) formula of nuclear level density has been studied. We have used the mean order parameter formula of modified Ginzburg–Landau (MGL) theory as a simple possible choice for temperature dependency of the pairing term. The level density and heat capacity of [Formula: see text]Mo have been calculated with this formalism and compared with the experimental data. We observed good agreement between the heat capacity of this model and the experimental data.

We identify in this paper that stress relaxation in metals is a “strain-free” process. The corresponding self-consistent relations between the strain, and stress variations of a grain and of its aggregate are derived from Eshelby’s solution of an ellipsoidal inclusion. It is shown that, under such a process, the strain in a more favorably oriented grain continues to rise and that its stress decreases more drastically than that of the aggregate; conversely, for a less favorably oriented grain, its strain decreases and its stress relaxes less. The self-consistent relations are supplemented with a temperature-dependent, physically consistent constitutive equation for the slip system. Such an equation enables us to determine the single crystal constants at one temperature from the polycrystal data at another temperature; it also makes the self-consistent scheme applicable to the varying-temperature environment. The established theory was finally applied to predict the relaxation behavior of an RR-59 aluminum alloy under combined stress; the results showed reasonably good agreement with the experimental data.

Analysis of the fusion reactions of halo nuclei is one of the important subjects of nuclear physics. In addition, temperature-dependent analysis of fusion cross-sections of these nuclei is a deficient topic in the literature. In order to overcome this deficiency, the fusion cross-sections of 6He, 8He and [Formula: see text]Li which are the most important halo nuclei are analyzed by using both temperature-independent potential and temperature-dependent potential. All the theoretical results are compared with each other as well as the experimental data. It is seen that the results of temperature-independent potential are in good agreement with the data while the temperature-dependent potential has a significant impact on the fusion cross-sections. Finally, the changes with the temperature of both real and nuclear potentials of all the reactions are investigated.

The material constants calculation models for hyperbolic-sine creep model were proposed. The material constants used in hyperbolic-sine creep model for 316 stainless steel were calculated due to the models proposed and experimental data in the temperature range from 873K to 1023K. The relationships between material constants of 316 stainless steel creep model and temperature were obtained by curve fitting. The creep rate predict model of 316 stainless steel with only stress and temperature was also developed, the creep rates predicted were in good agreement with experimental data.

ABSTRACTAn analysis of the temperature dependent mobility in lightly doped ZnSe epitaxial layers grown on a semi-insulating GaAs substrate by Molecular Beam Epitaxy is reported. Our results indicate that the temperature dependence of the mobility is in poor agreement with calculated values based on typical phonon and ionized impurity scattering mechanisms. Good agreement between theory and experimental data call be obtained by including a scattering term associated with the space-charge region surrounding defects.

IntroductionThere have been several t.e.m. studies (1,2,3,4) of the dislocation arrangements in the matrix and around the particles in dispersion strengthened single crystals deformed in single slip. Good agreement has been obtained in general between the observed structures and the various theories for the flow stress and work hardening of this class of alloy. There has been though some difficulty in obtaining an accurate picture of these arrangements in the case when the obstacles are large (of the order of several 1000's Å). This is due to both the physical loss of dislocations from the thin foil in its preparation and to rearrangement of the structure on unloading and standing at room temperature under the influence of the very high localised stresses in the vicinity of the particles (2,3).This contribution presents part of a study of the Cu-Cr-SiO2 system where age hardening from the Cu-Cr and dispersion strengthening from Cu-Sio2 is combined.
