Typical power outputs of commercially available diode lasers are on the
order of 5 milliwatts. This thesis discusses the growth, processing and
fabrication of high power (lOO's of milliwatts) diode lasers. Devices were
grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) and by Metal Organic Chemical
Vapor Deposition (MOCVD). The MOCVD diode...
As with many pairs of metals, the electrodeposition of Pb-Tl, Cu-Cd, and Cu-Ni at solid electrodes yielded partial polarization curves shifted from the polarization curves of the single metals. The curves for the more noble metals (Pb, Cu) were shifted negatively while the less noble metals'(Tl, Cd, Ni) curves were...
Over the years, chemical bath deposition (CBD) is being widely used in the fabrication of Cu (In, Ga) Se₂ and CdTe based solar cells and photovoltaics. Many chalcogenides have been successfully deposited by this technique and it has received a great deal of attention owing to its low temperature and...
The critical contribution of this dissertation is to provide a better
understanding of the fundamental Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD) growth
kinetic and mechanism for the well known II-VI semiconductor CdS using the
newly developed continuous flow microreactor. This continuous flow microreactor
provides the temporal resolution to control the homogeneous reaction...
Redlich and Kister have developed two methods for evaluating
thermodynamic consistency of vapor-liquid equilibrium data. These
same authors also developed a power series for classifying systems
according to the number of coefficients required to define the data.
Stockett found it was difficult to classify systems by this method.
Macan suggested...
