Potential and energy of some spheroidal charge distributions with azimuthal symmetry
1989
Abstract The Poisson equation is solved for three types of spheroidal charge distributions with azimuthal symmetry, namely, those depending on one cartesian coordinate, on the radial cylindrical coordinate and on the radial spherical coordinate. The energy of such distributions is found for the case of power functions of these coordinates and it has been normalized, computed and plotted for some low values of the exponent.
Angular shift of an electromagnetic beam reflected by a planar dielectric interface
1989
A mathematical procedure for obtaining theoretically an expression for the fields of a beam reflected by a planar interface separating two lossless, linear, isotropic, homogeneous media is presented. Comparison of this expression with that obtained when the beam undergoes reflection from a perfect conductor leads to the expression for the angular shift of the beam reflected by a planar dielectric interface. The cases of normal and parallel polarization of a microwave beam are considered. In the last case, a complete study for angles of incidence far and near the Brewster angle is made.
Phonon dispersion in GaN/AlN non‐polar quantum wells: confinement and anisotropy
2007
We have calculated the phonon dispersion relations in a non-polar GaN/AlN quantum well within the dielectric continuum model and making use of Loudon's model of uniaxial crystals. Due to the strong in-plane anisotropy of this orientation, we have found that in general ordinary and extraordinary phonons are not decoupled. In this work we analyze the conditions for the occurrence of interface modes. In these novel heterostructures there is an added dependence of the phonon dispersion on the orientation of the in-plane phonon wavevector, which allows the existence of interface phonons at energies forbidden in the better known polar structures. Under particular circumstances the vibrations exci…
Electron scattering mechanisms inn-type indium selenide
1984
Electron scattering mechanisms in $n$-type indium selenide are investigated by means of the temperature dependence (4-500 K) of Hall mobility and the magnetic field dependence of Hall and magnetoresistance coefficients. The Schmid model for homopolar optical-phonon scattering can explain the temperature dependence of electron mobility above 40 K. The electron-phonon coupling constant is determined, ${g}^{2}=0.054$. The optical phonon involved in the process is identified as the ${A}_{1}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ phonon with energy 14.3 meV. The magnetic field dependence of Hall and magnetoresistance coefficients is discussed in terms of the Jones-Zener expansion.
Potential and energy of oblate spheroidal charge distributions
1989
Abstract The Poisson equation for a large class of charge distributions contained within oblate spheroids in solved and their energies are obtained. In many cases, the potential and the energy can be found by comparison with the solutions of the Poisson equation for prolate spheroidal charge distributions obtained in preceding works. The limits of validity of this comparison procedure are established. For the simplest cases the electrostatic energy is computed and, after suitable normalization, displayed graphically.
Electromagnetic scattering by a strip grating with nonplanar illumination
1993
An angular-spectrum method combined with the Galerkin procedure has been used to evaluate the electromagnetic scattering of a beam radiated by an aperture antenna after being incident obliquely upon a strip grating. Integral expressions for the transmitted and reflected fields are obtained. The incident beam radiated by the antenna is diffracted in several beams corresponding to the propagative Floquet harmonics. An angular shift of the transmitted and reflected fundamental harmonic beams has been shown. Comparison between numerical and experimental results validates this method. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
