Phase calculation is an important step that affects the accuracy of measurements. in phase calculation, the critical source of error is phase error due to nonlinear gamma effect of the system. This paper introduces an experimental investigation of the nonlinear gamma effect of DFPP system as well as the effect of system parameters, such as fringe intensity, fringe period, surface distance from the camera and projector and finally the ambient illumination, on phase error and consequently system measurements. Fringe patterns are generated using Matlab 2018a and projected by digital laser projector. The deformed patterns are captured using colored CCD camera. Phase shifting technique is used to calculate phase map. The system shows a linear response in the intensity range (50-220) and has small phase error without any compensation for nonlinear gamma effect. The phase error of the system slightly increases with increasing fringe period and the surface distance from the camera and projector, while it is nearly constant with ambient illumination changes from dark to median level and shows a bigger change if the ambient is completely illuminated. In the worst conditions the phase error does not accedes 0.0387 rad without any compensation for nonlinear gamma effect, make the system a useful tool for 3D measurements in different working fields.","PeriodicalId":445633,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Solids","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125582118","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}

Both FT-Raman analysis and UV–VIS-NIR absorption measurements were utilized to characterize the studied semiconductors' structural and optical characteristics. The detected X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the prepared CdS present a polycrystalline structure, and Al-doping does not significantly impact this range. Optical bandgaps were determined for undoped and Al-doped CdS, showing a significant change with the percentage of Al-dopants. With increasing Al-doping up to (20 percent), the optical bandgap for CdS (2.38 eV) grows to reach (2.47 eV) and the allowed transitions were found to be direct for the investigated samples. The blue shift may be the reason for the optical bandgap variations. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) micrographs were performed to establish the Al-doped CdS nanostructure to identify the morphological characteristics.","PeriodicalId":445633,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Solids","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129271442","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}

In this context, a low phonon energy glass containing Er3+ ions was prepared using the conventional melt/casting technique. The chemical compositions of the synthesized materials were analyzed using X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) measurements. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) pattern strongly affirms the non-crystalline essence of the produced materials. The behavior of both density and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy denoted that the Er3+ ions have a modifier role and non-bridging oxygens NBOs were formed inside the studied glass network. The studied glasses have low phonon energy, ranging from 647 to 659 cm-1. The obtained results of the thermal, thermo-mechanical, mechanical, and optical properties were discussed in light of the structural changes brought about by inserting Er3+ ions inside the studied network. The present glasses have high thermal stability, high thermal expansion, and high refractive index. With the increase of Er3+ ion content, the Vickers microhardness VMH decreased from 3.78 GPa to 3.20 GPa. Under near ultraviolet NUV 380 nm excitation wavelength, three emission bands; blue, green, and red are observed. The white light is possible by a suitable combination of these colors. The cool white light emission was confirmed using CIE 1931 chromaticity diagram and correlated color temperature values. According to the obtained results, the studied glasses are nominated as a white light emitter in photonic applications.","PeriodicalId":445633,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Solids","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129862130","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}

Thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermographs of the ferrite samples have been used to ensure the complete formation of pure ferrites at temperatures above 800 o C. The ferrites and their composites with PEG, have been investigated by FTIR spectroscopy. The main bands of ferrites and PEG have been clearly displayed in agreement with literature. A systematic shift of the bands has been observed upon adding PEG. The magnetic properties have been explored by using the vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). Where the values of of saturation magnetization (Ms), remnant magnetization (Mr) and coercive field (Hc) for pure ferrite and composite samples vary with the presence of different divalent cations which have different magnetic moment. Whereas, Hc values remain constant as obtained in pure ferrites regardless the ratio of PEG. The obtained values of Hc are comparable with those in literature, which can be used in electromagnetic wave attenuation.","PeriodicalId":445633,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Solids","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121844486","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 effect of configuration parameters on the stepped productivity and efficiency such as the still width (b_s), depth of water (d_w), tray width (W) and the height of tray (H) is considered. Comparing thermal performance of the stepped solar still with that of the conventional one shows that the stepped solar still is more efficient. Correlations of the got results with those introduced in the past investigations have been done, prompt an approving the proposed mathematical model. The outcomes show that, the every day productivities for the traditional and ventured sun based stills are discovered to be 4.0 and 4.51 (kg/m2day); separately.

FT-IR absorption spectra displayed the essential absorption bands that were related to their principle sites and main bonds.
