Experimental results indicate that the a.c conductivity and dielectric parameters are temperature, frequency and impurity dependent. The a.c conductivity in the aforesaid frequency range is found to obey the ωs law. A strong dependence of a.c conductivity and exponent s in the entire temperature and frequency range can be interpreted in terms of the correlated barrier hopping (CBH) model due to the effect of Ge element. The variation of above mentioned properties with Ge element are also investigated and results are explained in terms of lone pair configuration of the studied compositions.","PeriodicalId":448231,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Physics","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122287778","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 results obtained suggested that, in the case where reflected electrons were properly accounted for, there were more power levels with larger values of enhanced counter function (or increased electron population) than the case where consideration was not given to reflected electrons.

These ZnO films were preheated at 100 oC for 10 min and annealed at 350, 500 and 550 ˚C for 60 min. As-deposited films, formed by amorphous zinc oxide-acetate submicron particles, are transformed into a highly-oriented ZnO after thermal treatment.

The wave functions are always periodic. Two difficulties may be encountered: one is to solve the equation, E=U(r), where E and U(r) are the total and effective potential energies, respectively; and the other is to calculate the integral, ∫▒〖√(U(r)) dr 〗. If these calculations cannot be made analytically, it should then be performed by numerical methods. To find the energy of the ground state (minimum energy), there is no need to calculate this integral, it is sufficient to find the classical turning points, that is to solve the equation, E=U(r). We have applied this simple procedure to a lot of non-relativistic cases. In this short article, by using this simple procedure, the relativistic Dirac equation for a particle in central potential well of any form was solved without making any approximation.

The observed monthly frequency distributions of the daily clearness index (kt) exhibit the following features: (i) most of them are asymmetrical and have only one maximum; (ii) frequency distributions with higher monthly averages ¯(k_t ) and lower standard deviations are noticed in the dry season, i.e. from June to August or September; (iii) at the opposite, broader fluctuations and lower ¯(k_t ) values are observed in the remaining period of the year (rainy seasons); (iv) the yearly averages ¯(k_t ) range from 0.41 to 0.59. This indicates that in average the sky over Burundi is a fairly sunny one. Moreover, a statistical test (the F-test) has been used to check for each station if the monthly samples with the same ¯(k_t ) had also the same variance. The null hypothesis has been accepted for all the ¯(k_t ) intervals of interest (excepted one) for the six stations. Those monthly samples must belong to the same mother population, and have therefore the same statistical distribution, referred to as a monthly reference frequency distribution. Such reference distributions have been built for the six stations and the relevant ¯(k_t ) intervals of interest. They would be useful for designing solar energy systems at the Burundian stations of this study and for predicting the long-term average performance of those systems.","PeriodicalId":448231,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Physics","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122166381","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 numerical value of residual stress, has been obtained as 4.88±4.54 (MPa). Afterward, the 10 (kHz) frequencies with 12 volt amplitude were applied to the piezoelectric as substrate during 20 minutes. Subsequently, the residual stress values, was reduced to 2.68±1.63 (MPa). As a consequence, we were able to reduce the gold film residual stress through a new method, using the crystalline piezoelectric property.
