Photoemission studies of wurtzite zinc oxide.

The electronic structure of wurtzite zinc oxide, investigated over the widest possible photon energy range by means of photoemission techniques, is described. Of particular interest among the results of the photoemission study are the location of the Zn 3rd core states, the width of the upper valence bands, and structure in the conduction-band and valence-band density of states.

Sealed silver oxide zinc cells for orbiting and planetary missions.

Several test programs were carried out to determine the performance and limitations of sealed, silver oxide zinc cells for (1) 24-hr synchronous orbits, (2) orbits that would require a maximum of six cycles per day, and (3) missions to other planets requiring maintenance of maximum capacity for probe operations during planet encounter. The results are summarized to provide power system designers with guidelines bearing on capacity maintenance during cycling, cycle life, charged stand effects, and internal pressure characteristics. The life of zinc silver oxide cells is shown to be limited to one to two years over the temperature range of 0 to 24 C.

Bidirectional reflectance of zinc oxide

This investigation was undertaken to determine original and useful information about the bidirection reflectance of zinc oxide. The bidirectional reflectance will be studied for the spectra between .25-2.5 microns and the hemisphere above the specimen. The following factors will be considered: (1) surface conditions; (2) specimen preparation; (3) specimen substrate, (4) polarization; (5) depolarization; (6) wavelength; and (7) angles of incident and reflection. The bidirectional reflectance will be checked by experimentally determined angular hemispherical measurements or hemispherical measurements will be used to obtain absolute bidirectional reflectance.

Bidirectional reflectance measurement of zinc oxide in 0.25 to 2.5 microns spectrum

An experimental apparatus was designed and used to measure the bidirectional reflectance of zinc oxide in the spectrum 0.25 to 2.5 microns. The nonspecular reflectance is essentially Lambert for wavelengths above 0.40 microns with the most deviation occuring for large source zenith angles. Below 0.400 microns the nonspecular reflectance is greater than Lambert in all directions and is greatest in the forward and backscatter directions. The ratio of the specular component to the nonspecular component at a zenith of 0 degrees was found to increase with source zenith and wavelength for wavelengths above 0.400 microns. Below 0.400 microns this ratio increases as wavelengths decrease. The variation of bidirectional reflectance with wavelength was found to have the characteristics absorption for Zn0 for wavelength below 0.400 microns.
