Article Enhancing Thickness Determination of Nanoscale Dielectric Films in Phase Diffraction-Based Optical Characterization Systems With Radial Basis Function Neural Networks(IOP Publishing, 2023) Ataç, Enes; Karatay, Anıl; Dinleyici, Mehmet SalihAccurate determination of the optical properties of ultra-thin dielectric films is an essential and challenging task in optical fiber sensor systems. However, nanoscale thickness identification of these films may be laborious due to insufficient and protracted classical curve matching algorithms. Therefore, this experimental study presents an application of a radial basis function neural network in phase diffraction-based optical characterization systems to determine the thickness of nanoscale polymer films. The non-stationary measurement data with environmental and detector noise were subjected to a detailed analysis. The outcomes of this investigation are benchmarked against the linear discriminant analysis method and further verified by means of scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the neural network has reached a remarkable accuracy of 98% and 82.5%, respectively, in tests with simulation and experimental data. In this way, rapid and precise thickness estimation may be realized within the tolerance range of 25 nm, offering a significant improvement over conventional measurement techniques.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Experimental Demonstration of a Transient Grating Controlled All-Optical Switch(IOP Publishing, 2023) Akın, Osman; Dinleyici, Mehmet SalihWe demonstrate an on-fiber all-optical switching device based on a transient grating formed by the interference of control laser pulses in a Kerr-type nonlinear material placed in the evanescent region of the fiber. The device can operate in two distinctive modes. First, switching/coupling among the fiber modes using bulk index modulation was investigated and an efficiency of about %0.55 @852 nm was measured. Second, by exploiting Four Wave Mixing (FWM), an all-optical switching that transfers power among light signals with wavelengths of λ 1 = 440 nm and λ 2 = 663 nm was achieved by quasi-phase-matching and fRequency matching in a nonlinear thin polymeric film. The results prove that the introduced switching structure may have the potential to be used in integrated photonic applications such as intensity modulators or controllable couplers.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Electromagnetic Effects of Equatorially Misaligned Rf Cavities(IOP Publishing, 2021) Karatay, Anıl; Yaman, FatihOne of the most challenging problems in modern particle accelerator systems is the manufacture of RF cavities within the desired tolerance limits. In this study experimental and computational investigations to quantify the effects of transversal half-cell misalignments on the fundamental accelerator cavity parameters and beam dynamics are presented. Equivalent circuit components of an equatorially misaligned single-cell aluminum elliptical cavity are obtained from the measured data and are employed to calculate longitudinal impedance and modal wake function. Critical coupling and bead-pull measurements are performed at the TM010-like mode frequency, 2.45 GHz for the quality factor and shunt impedance of the high-beta cavity. We report equivalent circuit analysis for higher-order modes and variations of the equivalent circuit components with respect to considered misalignment errors for the MICE experiment's muon cooling cavity. It is shown that using the equivalent circuit model decreases the computational load significantly for the wake field simulations of resonator cavities. Good agreement between simulations and measurements in terms of accelerating cavity parameters and impedances is illustrated.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Manipulating the Frequency Response of Small High-Frequency Atomic Force Microscope Cantilevers(IOP Publishing, 2020) Brar, Harpreet Singh; Balantekin, MüjdatWe study small (less than 10 mu m-long) high-frequency (greater than 1 MHz) cantilevers specially designed for visualization of biomolecular processes in high-speed atomic force microscopes. The frequency responses of the first three flexural eigenmodes are investigated for the modified geometries. It is found that the Q-factors can be significantly altered in the desired way by reengineering the cantilever geometry without affecting its main operational parameters, such as the spring constant and the resonance frequency of the first flexural eigenmode in an air environment. In addition, higher-order flexural resonances can be moved away from the fundamental resonance with these geometrical modifications. The Q-factors in liquid, on the other hand, do not show a significant difference due to high viscous damping of the medium. Regular cantilevers modified by a focused ion beam are used to demonstrate the validity of the finite element simulation model.
