Electron Diffraction Study of CuGaS2 Film

Mubariz Nuriyev · Physical Science International Journal · 2014

In present work, the results of electron diffraction investigations of structures of amorphous thin films of CuGaS2have been given and function of radial distribution of atoms (FRDA) has been calculated. Appropriate coordination number n = 4,1  we obtained from calculating the ar...

Effect of Temperature on the Iron Sulphur Ratio of Pyrite Deposited by Aerosol Assisted Chemical Vapour Deposition Method

Christian Nweze, Masood Akhtar, Mohammad Azad Malik, Paul O’Brien & Stella Ezeonu · Physical Science International Journal · 2014

Pyrite semiconducting film was deposited on a glass substrate from the single source precursor (Fe (S2CN(Et)2)3) by Aerosol Assisted Chemical Vapour Deposition (AACVD). The p-XRD pattern of the deposited films shows that pure pyrite was deposited at 300°C whereas mixture of pyrit...

Nano-structural Characterizations: Elongation of Graphene Layers within Solid Hydrocarbons

Kamel A. K. Gadallah · Physical Science International Journal · 2014

Nano-structural characterizations of solid hydrocarbons were explained during their formation by the laser ablation technique and during the heat treatment. For the hydrogenated amorphous carbon (HAC), these characterizations cover the hydrogen content, the sp3 and sp2 hybridizat...

The Quantum Hydrodynamic Formulation of Dirac Equation and Its Generalized Stochastic and Non-linear Analogs

Piero Chiarelli · Physical Science International Journal · 2014

The quantum hydrodynamic-like equations as a function of two real sets of variables (i.e., the 4x4 action matrix and the 4-dimensional wave function modulus vector) of the Dirac equation are derived in the present work.  The paper shows that in the low velocity limit the equation...
