An "extended-Drude" model, implying a simple form for the self-energy function of the mobile charge-carrier response, has been applied to fitting the infrared and visible reflectivity spectra of simple cuprates. Excellent fits are obtained in a wide spectral range, from 4 meV to 4 eV, with a very restricted number of adjustable parameters. The optical conductivity obtained with this procedure is highly different from the Kramers–Kronig transformation of reflectivity spectra. The same procedure has been applied to characterise the infrared conductivity of multi-target laser-ablated films built via intergrowth of YBa2Cu3O7 and MCuO2 (M = Ca, Sr).

AbstractA comprehensive time independent theory of the solid electrolyte(SE)–metal electrode interface is presented, using the assumption that cations are the only mobile charge carrier in the electrolyte. The temperature and the dc current across the SE are the only free parameters for the solutions along with three intrinsic parameters which depend on the properties of the particular system. The phenomenological model of the interface double layer is based on the Gouy–Chapman–Stern model.The numerical solutions of the theory for porous tungstenzeolite system enables us to predict most of the properties in the SE system such as;the current–overpotential characteristics, the capacitances of the double layer, concentration profile in the diffusion layer, the potential profile across the interface, electrochemical exchange current, and the potential of zero charge(PZC) etc. An experimental technique to measure the PZC of SE systems has been also proposed.

Solid state x-ray sensing systems have been used for many years in conjunction with scanning and transmission electron microscopes. Such systems conveniently provide users with elemental area maps and quantitative chemical analyses of samples. Improvements on these tools are currently sought in the following areas: sensitivity at longer and shorter x-ray wavelengths and minimization of noise-broadening of spectral lines. In this paper, we review basic limitations and recent advances in each of these areas. Throughout the review, we emphasize the systems nature of the problem. That is. limitations exist not only in the sensor elements but also in the preamplifier/amplifier chain and in the interfaces between these components.Solid state x-ray sensors usually function by way of incident photons creating electron-hole pairs in semiconductor material. This radiation-produced mobile charge is swept into external circuitry by electric fields in the semiconductor bulk.
