Fabrication and characterization of zinc oxide based surface acoustic wave devices
(Bilkent University, 2013)Surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices, as applied to today’s technology, were first described in 1965. Since then, these devices were applied to a wide variety of fields. Bandpass filter is their most common application, ... -
Fabrication and optimization of rf-SQUID and SQUID integration assembly for high resolution magnetic imaging systems
(Bilkent University, 2005)Superconducting QUantum Interference Devices or SQUIDs are by far the most sensitive devices known for sensing magnetic flux down to a resolution of about 10−21Wb and finds innumerous applications in various fields. In ... -
Fabrication of ALN/GAN MIS-Hemt with SIN as gate dielectric and performance enhancement with ALD deposited alumina
(Bilkent University, 2016-11)Silicon based transistors reached a limit, especially for high power and high frequency applications due to their relatively low bandgap and breakdown voltage. With its higher bandgap and breakdown voltage, GaN based ... -
Fabrication of an on-chip nanowire device with controllable nanogap for manipulation, capturing, and electrical characterization of nanoparticles
(Bilkent University, 2008)One of the major challenges in nanofabrication commonly arises from the necessity to integrate nanostructures (e.g., nanoparticles) on the same chip with microcomponents (e.g., microelectrodes) that are orders-of-magnitude ... -

(Bilkent University, 1993)The primary aim of this dissertation research is to contribute to the manufacturing strategy planning process. The firm is perceived as a value chain which can be represented by a production-distribution network. Structural ... -
Fact vs. fiction: preschoolers’ learning of information from narrative and expository books
(Bilkent University, 2018-01)Expository and narrative books differ in terms of their structure, content, and language. This study investigated 3- and 5-year-old children’s learning of information from different genres, and whether children differ in ... -
De Facto states and inter-state military conflicts
(Bilkent University, 2010)The end of the Cold War has given rise to the number of non-state political actors such as de facto states. While scholarly attention has been given to the concept of sovereignty and to empirical analyses of de facto ...
