Current Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy(I-DLTS) v I-DLTS
Ø current-based microscopic defect analysis technique for high resistivity detector materials((> 106 Ω-‐cm) such as CdZnTe and heavily irradiated Si.
Ø Defects are filled by free carriers generated by incident laser pulse.
v This technique makes it possible to identify & analyze defect levels and their correlation with the detector electrical degradation

I-DLTS Study
Defect-level filling
detrapping
• I-DLTS … Current Deep-Level Transient Spectroscopy
• Study of energy levels is important to get information about the defect structure in semiconductor materials
• Deep levels can negatively influence detector performance (low efficiency, poor energy resolution, and polarization)
• We can obtain activation energy and capture cross-section of defect levels
Temperature range 12 - 360 K

Objective for this research
11

Flash Atomization
12
v A pure liquid, a liquid mixture, or a liquid with dissolved gas is exposed to sufficient superheating or pressure reduction that causes bubble formation
ü Rapid growth of bubbles is the cause of the explosion of the bubble and generation of finer droplets and spray

v Combustion of liquid fuels ü Liquid rockets, liquid fueled ramjets ü Diesel engines, stratified-charge engines ü Oil-fired furnaces & boilers ü Gas turbine
v Liquid metal processes ü Powder production and net- form manufacturing (spray forming)
o Requires precise control of droplet size and trajectory to obtain the desired performances
v Agriculture ü Insecticides, fertilizer & pesticides
o Need Correct droplet of size to achieve the desired goal v Application of health care products v Environmental protection
ü Water injection for NOx reduction ü Gas scrubbing for dust particles
v Coating & Painting
v Important Liquid properties for atomization ü Surface tension ü Density ü Dynamic viscosity

Nozzle
21
v Primary function of the nozzle is to atomize the fuel into drops so that they can be evaporated and burnt.
v The nozzle basically convert the potential energy that has been packed into the fuel in the form of pressure energy to kinetic energy, in the form of a swirling and extremely turbulent flow. v It causes the liquid sheet formed at the exit of the nozzle to break up into
drops
