Abstract
In the present study, a theoretical model that interconnects plasma waves, thermal dynamics, and elastic vibrations has been applied to examine the propagations of waves in semiconductors as a result of photo-thermal effects. A study was conducted on a semiconducting material that is both isotropic and elastic, displaying uniform thermoelastic properties. This research looked into how plasma, thermal, and elastic waves, which are produced by a sharply focused laser beams with modulated intensity, interact within the material. Using Laplace transform methods, the analytical solutions obtained through the eigenvalues approach in the transformed domains were observed. To do the numerical calculations, a semiconductor resembling silicon was used.
期刊介绍:
The journal Silicon is intended to serve all those involved in studying the role of silicon as an enabling element in materials science. There are no restrictions on disciplinary boundaries provided the focus is on silicon-based materials or adds significantly to the understanding of such materials. Accordingly, such contributions are welcome in the areas of inorganic and organic chemistry, physics, biology, engineering, nanoscience, environmental science, electronics and optoelectronics, and modeling and theory. Relevant silicon-based materials include, but are not limited to, semiconductors, polymers, composites, ceramics, glasses, coatings, resins, composites, small molecules, and thin films.
