Using the Debye–Scherer’s equation, the average size of the crystallites is measured. Optical properties are determined by absorption measurements in the spectral range from 200 to 900 nm. The surface features are investigated by optical microscopic techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The efficiency of the thin film Solar Cell is measured by Current density – Voltage (J-V) characteristics.","PeriodicalId":228648,"journal":{"name":"ADVANCES IN APPLIED PHYSICS","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130168095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This plastic deformation, added with that generated by the changes with volume, plasticity of transformation is called. It is as well observed at the time of diffusive transformations like for the martensitic transformations. At the time of a martensitic transformation, martensite slats are created, each one in a random direction and create a microscopic deformation according to this direction. From a macroscopic point of view, the deformation is isotropic and corresponds to the change of volume at the time of the transformation. If the same transformation is operated under loading, even very weak, the martensite slats tend to be directed in the direction of the request. Then, in addition to the change of volume, this preferential orientation creates a macroscopic deformation in the direction of request. In this work, one proposes a method of quantification of this deformation of the plasticity of transformation, which is induced by this structural change, by using the model of WEN. This model is a micromechanical model two-dimensional, with a grid with triangular basic elements. The grid of the cell breaks up into two zones: a central zone (of a size of 14x14) where the transformation occurs and a second zone, which represents the surrounding medium, in the objective to ensure the interactions with the close grains. The total size of the grid is of 22x22 bricks. This modelling takes into account the transformations anisothermes. The selection criterion of the plates is controlled not only by driving energies (i.e. the mechanical driving force and the chemical driving force), but also by a resistive","PeriodicalId":228648,"journal":{"name":"ADVANCES IN APPLIED PHYSICS","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129997366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The influence of ambient temperature and sup-ply voltage on the spectral sensitivity and dynamic range of prototypes of silicon pho-tomultipliers manufactured by JSC \"Integral\" (Republic ofBelarus) and commercially available photomultipliers KetekRM 3325 and ON Semi FC 30035 has been investigated in this article. It was determined that the spectral sensitivity maxi-mum of silicon photomultipliers is shifted to the short-wavelength region andcorre-sponds to the wavelength of optical radiation of 470 nm. It is shown that an increase in the supply voltage leads to an increase in the sensitivity of the investigated photodetectors, and the dependence of the sensitivity on temperature manifests itself in different ways when exposed to optical radiation of different wavelengths.","PeriodicalId":228648,"journal":{"name":"ADVANCES IN APPLIED PHYSICS","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128900048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The geometric parameters of the Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor are used in the reconstruction of the measured wave-front and determine such parameters of the Shack-Hartmann sensor as the dynamic range and sensitivity.
