In the annealed state, sub-bandgap absorption spectra obtained from both PDS and DBP overlap very well at energies above 1.4 eV. However, differences in α (hν) spectrum exist in the lower energy part of absorption spectrum. The α (hν) value measured at 1.0 eV is the lowest for 10% Ge sample and increases gradually as Ge content of the sample increases. In the light soaked state, time dependence of photoconductivity decay obeys to t -x power law, where x changes from 0.30 to 0.60 for samples with low Ge content and 0.05-0.1 for samples with high Ge content. Correspondingly, the increase of the sub-bandgap absorption coefficient at lower energies obeys to t y power law, where y values are lower than the x value of the same sample. It can be inferred that sub-bandgap absorption and photoconductivity measurements are not controlled by the same set of defects created in the bandgap of alloys. © 2009 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 2Fabrication of Superconducting Mgb2 From Boron Oxide (b 2o3), and Its Microstructural and Electrical Characterization(National Institute of Optoelectronics, 2005) Yavaş, Mert; Okur, Salih; Eğilmez, Mehmet; Kalkancı, Mihriban; Özyüzer, LütfiThe discovery of superconducting MgB2 (39 K) draws attention to it as a new material for applications based on superconductivity. Many researchers successfully synthesized MgB2 using commercial boron and magnesium. In this study, elementary boron was obtained via an acid leaching process, after reacting B2O3, and Mg in an argon atmosphere at 800°C. Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX) results revealed that the powder obtained from the reaction was boron in 92% purity with magnesium as the major impurity. Superconducting MgB2 was produced from this boron and magnesium, in an argon atmosphere at 900°C, by a conventional solid-state reaction. Superconducting MgB2 powders were compressed in a dye to pellets by a hot pressing technique at 500°C and 1 GPa. The microstructural properties of the MgB2 were determined by X-ray Diffraction Spectroscopy, EDX, and Scanning Electron Microscopy techniques. The electrical properties of the fabricated MgB 2 were examined by resistivity measurements in a closed-cycle cryopump system, between 20 and 300 K. The critical temperature (Tc) of the MgB2 pellets was around 32 K.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Microstructural and Electrical Characterization of Ti and Mg Doped Cu-Clad Mgb2 Superconducting Wires(National Institute of Optoelectronics, 2005) Okur, Salih; Kalkancı, Mihriban; Yavaş, Mert; Eğilmez, Mehmet; Özyüzer, LütfiThe recent studies on Ti doping effect on the critical current density (Jc) of MgB2 composite superconductors prepared under ambient pressure has shown an important enhancement at 20 K. In the present work, we have fabricated Ti and Mg doped superconducting MgB2 wires by packing reacted MgB2 and Ti or Mg powders together inside Cu tubes with a diameter of 6 mm. The tubes were then cold worked by rolling or drawing to smaller diameters. The prepared Cu-clad Ti and Mg added MgB 2 superconducting wires were annealed at various temperatures to enhance the grain connectivity of the MgB2 bulk materials. The effect of the sintering time has been investigated for high performance characteristics of superconducting Cu-clad Ti and Mg added MgB2 wires. The microstructural evaluation of the superconducting wires has been carried out using XRD and SEM equipped with EDX analysis system. The interfacial properties between Cu sheath and superconducting core was characterized using SEM-EDX. Furthermore, the influence of the presence of Ti and Mg on Tc has been investigated to understand the structural and electronic properties of superconducting Ti and Mg doped MgB2 wires.
