Analytic thermal modeling for dc to midrange modulation frequency response for thin film high-Tc superconductive edge-transition bolometers
(OSA Publishing, 2001-03-01) Fardmanesh, M.
Thin-film superconductive edge-transition bolometers are modeled with a one-dimensional analytic thermal model with joule heating, film and substrate materials, and the physical interface effects taken into consideration. The results from the model agree well with the experimental results of samples made of large-meander-line Yba(2)Cu(3)O(7-x) films on crystalline SrTiO3, LaAlO3, and MgO substrates up to 100 kHz, the limits of the experimental setup. Compared with the results of the SrTiO3 substrate samples, the results from the model of the LaAlO3 and the MgO substrate samples deviate slightly from the measured values at very low modulation frequencies (below similar to 10 Hz). The deviation increases for higher thermal-conductive substrate materials. When the model was used, the substrate absorption and the thermal parameters of the devices could also be investigated.

A case study in marketing manufacturing interface: steel pipes and tubes factory
(1997) Meriç, Umut
Interfunctional harmony (cooperation, coordination and communication) between marketing and manufacturing in a steel pipes and tubes factory is analysed by a qualitative research tool in this thesis. Interfunctional harmony is important for an organization to be competitive, ineffective coordination and communication between departments can be due to several factors. Factory- is chosen as the arena on which a detailed analysis is carried out to understand the factors that create conflicts between marketing and manufacturing departments and provides an empirical case study. Smdy named the disorders as marketing-manufacturing interface and concludes with the recommendations used in the future.

A case study in marketing-manufacturing interface
(1995) Eren, Demet
The coordination between the marketing and manufacturing departments plays an important role in the implementation of the corporate strategy. The conflicts and gaps between these two departments impede the successful implementation of corporate strategy. Therefore understanding and managing the marketingmanufacturing interface is critical for the success of the company. This study investigates the gaps and factors affecting these gaps in the marketingmanufacturing interface and developes and uses a survey instrument in a case study.

A case study in marketing-manufacturing interface : Ateş Mobilya
(1994) Gezer, Melih
The coordination between Marketing and Manufacturing departments is a key determinant of an organization’s level of competitiveness. The lack of coordination between these two functions can be attributed to various factors. The aim of this study is to develop a qualitative research tool for understanding the effects of such factors on the Marketing - Manufacturing interface and to provide an empirical case study by applying this tool to a manufacturing organization. The study is concluded with an analysis of the findings and recommendations for future use.

Control of the Responsivity and the detectivity of superconductive edge-transition YBa2Cu3O7-x bolometers through substrate properties
(Optical Society of America, 1999-08-01) Fardmanesh, M.; Scoles, K. J.; Rothwarf, A.
The detectivity D* limits of YBa2Cu3O7-x bolometer on 0.05-cm-thick crystalline substrates are investigated, and a method to increase D* to greater than 10(9) (cm Hz(1/2))/W at a 20-mu m wavelength is proposed. Because the response increases proportionally with the bias current I-b, whereas the noise near T-c (the transition or critical temperature) of our MgO and SrTiO3 substrate samples does not, an increase in D* of these samples is obtained by an increase in I-b. Another limiting factor is the de thermal conductance G(0) of the device, which, although controlled by the substrate-holder thermal boundary resistance for our samples, can be changed by means of thinning the substrate to increase D*. The optimal amount of thinning depends on the substrate's thermal parameters and the radiation modulation frequency. D* in our samples is also found to follow the spectral-radiation absorption of the substrate material.

Determinants of the marketing-manufacturing interface
(1993) Akıncı, Hikmet Burcu
Marketing and manufacturing departments play important roles in day-today implementation of the corporate strategy. The conflicts and interfacial gaps between these two functional departments will impede the successful implementation of corporate strategy. Therefore, understanding and managing the marketing-manufacturing interface are crucial for the company's success. This study investigates the gaps in the interface of marketing and manufacturing, and identifies the factors that affect these gaps within a theoratical framework. Furthermore, a survey instrument is developed to emprically identify the gaps and significant factors that affect these gaps.

Improved performance of organic light-emitting diodes with MoO3 interlayer by oblique angle deposition
(Optical Society of America, 2011) Liu, S. W.; Divayana, Y.; Sun, X. W.; Wang, Y.; Leck, K. S.; Demir, Hilmi Volkan
We fabricated and demonstrated improved organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) in a thin film architecture of indium tin oxide (ITO)/molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) (20 nm)/ N,N'-Di(naphth-2-yl)-N,N'-diphenyl-benzidine (NPB) (50 nm)/tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) (Alq(3)) (70 nm)/Mg:Ag (200 nm) using an oblique angle deposition technique by which MoO3 was deposited at oblique angles (theta) with respect to the surface normal. It was found that, without sacrificing the power efficiency of the device, the device current efficiency and external quantum efficiency were significantly enhanced at an oblique deposition angle of theta = 60 degrees for MoO3.

“Interface: the actual story”
(Inter-Disciplinary Press, 2014) Şenova Tunalı, Funda; Dun, S.; Moser, D.
Technological enhancements and the integration of digital media into our daily lives have brought us many possibilities to form new associations and interact with the content that we are confronted with. Digital storytelling is such a field, which by using the characteristics of new media tries to form new semantic and syntactic relations between the authors/producers/designers/creators, the stories told and the users. Interface appears as the gateway through which the user accesses the content. The physical and digital interfaces (graphical user interfaces) and how the user interacts with them set the rules of the process by which the data is accessed. New media places the interface and the user at the heart of this interaction. The possibility of customising the user experience is an exciting one, which can bring dynamism to any story that is being told. The graphical user interface not only provides access to the content being represented but also gives freedom to the user to a degree on how to experience the story and provides visual information about the look and feel of the story. This chapter probes into the idea that an interface beyond being an undetachable part of the story being told, also acts as a part of the story with which it unfolds. Whether it is an online book, a hyperlinked story, a new media documentary, a computer game, or any other form of transmedia storytelling, interface becomes an important element of the story that gives visual hints and designates the look and feel of the story being told. This study intends to put forward interface as the element that is the gateway to the story, a part of the story and the reflection of the user who access the content through interacting with the interface.

Marketing manufacturing interface in Biltepe AS
(1996) Ayırga, A. Oğuz
Marketing manufacturing interface in Biltepe Inc. is analyzed by a qualitative research tool in this thesis. The competitive advantages of an organization relies on the coordination between marketing and manufacturing departments. Inadequate coordination between these two departments can be originated from various factors. The study determines the factors that have effect on the marketing manufacturing interface and provides an empirical case study by applying research tool in a manufacturing organization in the advanced construction materials industry. The study also includes analysis of the company related issues which have been scrutinized from a strategic perspective. In the final part recommendations made for future use of both this company and this study.
