Book Photoconductive Behavior of Lead Sulfide Films  Volume 2  Appendix IV  Photoconductivity in Chemically Deposited Lead Sulfide Layers

Download or read book Photoconductive Behavior of Lead Sulfide Films Volume 2 Appendix IV Photoconductivity in Chemically Deposited Lead Sulfide Layers written by Svein Espevik and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although chemically-deposited PbS layers have been extensively studied over the last twenty-five years, the mechanism of the photoconductivity process in such layers has not been previously understood in any reliable or complete manner. Investigation of the temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity, photoconductivity, Hall coefficient, photo-Hall effect, and thermoelectric power in such layers has been used to answer many of the common questions. Three types of layers have been investigated: (1) without added chemical oxidant in the deposition bath; (2) with a standard proportion of oxidant added; and (3) with four times the standard proportion of oxidant added. Electron microscope studies show that the layers consist of grains and intergranular regions. The author predicts on the basis of this work, that it should be possible in principle to prepare highly photosensitive PbS single crystal detectors.

Book Photoconductive Behavior of Lead Sulfide Films

Download or read book Photoconductive Behavior of Lead Sulfide Films written by Donald K. Smith and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The structure, chemical composition, and photoelectronic properties of chemically deposited PbS films have been investigated in relationship to variation in the concentration of oxidant used in the deposition. Structure and photoelectronic properties in the PbS film change as the concentration of oxidant is varied. Concomitant variations in the average chemical composition of the films are minor. It was found that the dependence of carrier density and mobility on temperature is divided into low and high temperature regions with distinct activation energies. The principal effect of photoexcitation is to increase the carrier density. Films produced without the use of oxidants are relatively insensitive. The primary electronic properties of PbS films may be described in terms of sensitizing centers located 0.23 eV below the conduction band, and in terms of intergrain barriers which limit the effective mobility. The intergrain barriers play no essential role in the photoconductive process. PbS films deposited from baths containing no oxidant lack the sensitizing centers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is devoted to the rapidly developing field of oxide thin-films and heterostructures. Oxide materials combined with atomic-scale precision in a heterostructure exhibit an abundance of macroscopic physical properties involving the strong coupling between the electronic, spin, and structural degrees of freedom, and the interplay between magnetism, ferroelectricity, and conductivity. Recent advances in thin-film deposition and characterization techniques made possible the experimental realization of such oxide heterostructures, promising novel functionalities and device concepts. The book consists of chapters on some of the key innovations in the field over recent years, including strongly correlated oxide heterostructures, magnetoelectric coupling and multiferroic materials, thermoelectric phenomena, and two-dimensional electron gases at oxide interfaces. The book covers the core principles, describes experimental approaches to fabricate and characterize oxide heterostructures, demonstrates new functional properties of these materials, and provides an overview of novel applications.

Book Remote Sensing

Download or read book Remote Sensing written by John R. Schott and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-05-25 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remote Sensing deals with the fundamental ideas underlying the rapidly growing field of remote sensing. John Schott explores energy-matter interaction, radiation propagation, data dissemination, and described the tools and procedures required to extract information from remotely sensed data using the image chain approach. Organizations and individuals often focus on one aspect of the remote sensing process before considering it as a whole, thus investigating unjustified effort, time, and expense to get minimal improvement. Unlike other books on the subject, Remote Sensing treats the process as a continuous flow. Schott examines the limitations obstructing the flow of information to the user, employing numerous applications of remote sensing to earth observation disciplines. For this second edition, in addition to a thorough update, there are major changes and additions, such as a much more complete treatment of spectroscopic imaging, which has matured dramatically in the last ten years, and a more rigorous treatment of image processing with an emphasis on spectral image processing algorithms. Remote Sensing is an ideal first text in remote sensing for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in the physical or engineering sciences, and will also serve as a valuable reference for practitioners.

Book Processes in Photoreactive Polymers

Download or read book Processes in Photoreactive Polymers written by V.V. Krongauz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1995-02-28 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of photosensitive materials in general and photoreactive polymers in particular is responsible for major advances in the information, imaging, and electronic industries. Computer parts manufacturing, information storage, and book and magazine publishing all depend on photoreactive polymer systems. The photo-and radiation-induced processes in polymers are also active areas of research. New information on the preparation and properties of com mercially available photosensitive systems is constantly being acquired. The recent demand for environmentally safe solvent-free and water-soluble materials also motivated changes in the composition of photopolymers and photoresists. The interest in holographic recording media for head-up displays, light scanners, and data recording stimulated development of reconfigurable and visible light sensitive materials. Photoconductive polymerizable coatings are being tested in electrostatic proofing and color printing. The list of available initiators, poly meric binders, and other coating ingredients is continually evolving to respond to the requirements of low component loss (low diffusivity) and the high rate of photochemical reactions.
