    Comparison of the Unmodified Rytov Method and the Modified Rytov Method in Obtaining Scintillations in Various Strongly Turbulent Media
    (Optica Publishing Group (Formerly OSA), 2026) Baykal, Y.
    The scintillation index as evaluated by the unmodified (classical) Rytov method solution for weak turbulence and evaluated by the modified or the extended Rytov method solution for strong turbulence is compared in different turbulent media, such as non-Kolmogorov atmospheric, non-Kolmogorov jet engine exhaust, marine atmospheric, and oceanic turbulences. When the scintillations are evaluated against the turbulence strength for various non-Kolmogorov power law and source sizes, the distinction between the modified Rytov and the unmodified Rytov method solutions, as the strength of turbulence increases, is clearly observed in all the turbulent media. This distinction is emphasized when the comparison is made at larger power law and source sizes. The results in this paper will be helpful in optical wireless communication system performance evaluations. © 2025 Optica Publishing Group.

    Field Correlations of a Gaussian Vortex Laser Beam in Vertical Turbulent Oceanic Links
    (Optica Publishing Group (Formerly OSA), 2026) Gerçekcioǧlu, H.; Baykal, Y.
    Utilizing the extended Huygens–Fresnel principle, field correlations of a Gaussian vortex beam propagating in the vertical turbulent oceanic link are examined analytically and evaluated by simulation in the Atlantic Ocean at low- and mid-latitude and high-latitude summer. Our formulation is based on the coherence length of a spherical wave operating at the depth range between 3000 and 3500 m. Variations in the rate of dissipation of turbulent kinetic energy per unit mass of fluid ε, the rate of dissipation of the mean-squared temperature χT, and the ratio of temperature to salinity contributions to the refractive index spectrum ω are taken into account at these depths in the underwater turbulent medium. The field correlation obtained using the coherence length found with the help of the depth-dependent power spectrum is expressed in detail. When the topological charge is selected considering the source size and propagation distance, it is seen that the normalized field correlation of the Gaussian vortex beam gives better results as compared to Gaussian beams. © 2025 Optica Publishing Group.

    Scintillation Index in Non-Kolmogorov Jet Engine Exhaust Turbulence
    (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2026) Baykal, Yahya
    In a non-Kolmogorov jet engine exhaust turbulence environment, scintillation index is found and evaluated. Effects of non-Kolmogorov turbulence spectrum, i.e., power law on the scintillations are studied. Variations of the scintillations against the change in the power law are found for various link lengths, structure constants, wave numbers, jet engine exhaust turbulence strengths, source sizes and scale parameters of jet engine exhaust turbulence. When the power law of non-Kolmogorov turbulence varies, the changes in the scintillations in jet engine exhaust turbulence are not large. The results in this paper could be of help to designers of optical wireless communication systems operating in atmosphere experiencing non-Kolmogorov jet engine exhaust turbulence.

    Field Correlations in Jet Engine Exhaust Turbulence
    (Optica Publishing Group (Formerly OSA), 2026) Baykal, Y.
    Field correlations of collimated Gaussian beams are formulated and examined in jet engine exhaust turbulence. Variations of the field correlations are evaluated against the changes in the parameters of the wireless optical communication link and the jet engine exhaust turbulence. It is found that for all the link and turbulence parameters of interest, as the diagonal distance at the receiver plane increases, the field correlation decreases. Also, at the same diagonal distance from the receiver plane, field correlations tend to become smaller as the receiver points are at a larger distance from the receiver origin, at a smaller source size, wavelength, and inner scale values of jet engine exhaust turbulence. On the other hand, field correlations have a tendency to attain larger values at smaller link length, structure constant, amplitude coefficient for the additional high frequency spectrum area, outer scale of inhomogeneity, and the outer scale values of jet engine exhaust turbulence. © 2025 Optica Publishing Group.

    Mitigation of Laser Beam Fluctuation and Performance of Probability of Fade in Weak Ocean Turbulence
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2026) Gercekcioglu, Hamza; Baykal, Yahya
    Utilizing the Rytov method in weakly turbulent oceanic medium, minimum scintillation index of sinusoidal Gaussian (SG) laser beams, named as the optimum beam (OB), is investigated for the underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC). Horizontal link between any underwater vehicles is considered. The formulation of the on-axis scintillation index of these beams is derived analytically, and the minimum scintillation index is determined with suitable adjustment of the complex displacement parameters. The complex displacement parameters are identified and tabulated for the selected propagation distance and source size. Obtained scintillation index results are drawn against the propagation length and source size. When compared with the plane, spherical, collimated, focused Gaussian, cos-Gaussian and cosh-Gaussian beams, OB is found to possess essential advantage. Additionally, with the obtained scintillation index values, probabilities of fade of these beams are calculated and their behaviors are also presented. OB also has a significant advantage when considering the fade probability.

    Laser Ablation Device with a Closed-Loop Control System
    (Optica Publishing Group, 2025) Beldek, Ulas; Erdogan, Kubra; Arpali, Caglar; Baykal, Yahya
    A laser ablation device with real-time beam power control is designed and implemented. This platform regulates the intensity of the laser beam by continuously measuring its intensity distribution. The quality of the ablation process is optimized through a closed-loop control system that uses a rule-based decision-making approach. The controller generates a starting signal for both the laser power and the motors based on the estimated quality of the ablation. The effects of laser power and light intensity on the formation of microchannels in polymethylmethacrylate material were investigated using the laser beam. The quality of the ablation geometry was assessed through image processing and inspection under a scanning electron microscope. The generated microchannels were analyzed in terms of roughness and residual thermal stress. A comparison of the experimental results with theoretical calculations and simulations revealed that the closed-loop control of laser beam power is effective for material etching and for creating smoother channel profiles.

    The Impact of Technology on Economic Growth in Turkey
    (Inderscience Publishers, 2025) Ercan, M.; Temiz, D.; Gökmen, A.
    The Turkish economy has been suffering from trade imbalance for a long time. Exporting high value-added products will diminish Turkey’s dependence on foreign resources for capital and imported products. At the same time, it may be possible to divert more resources from gross domestic product (GDP) to R&D funds. Appropriate and efficient usage of technology will help companies innovate and find new areas of employment. As a result, the Turkish economy may have a better chance of obtaining a sustainable economic growth for the longer term. This study concludes that increased R&D expenditures leads to a rise in technology and this in turn contributes positively to economic growth. The results obtained from the study show that technology affects Turkey’s economic growth. Therefore, Turkey needs to work harder in the field of technology in order to achieve sustainable growth. Improving the situation and quality of research and development activities in Turkey, encouraging research and development investments by both the government and the business sector should be priority reform movements for Turkey. Policy makers should support science and technology, make institutional arrangements for intellectual property rights and raise the level of education, and make arrangements to increase R&D spending. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Comparative Analysis of Impedance Matching Techniques in Wireless Power Transfer Efficiency: A Focus on Resonant, Adaptive, and Hybrid Approaches
    (Springer, 2025) Hatem, Sude; Kurt, Erol
    Wireless power transfer (WPT) efficiency is highly dependent on impedance matching; however, comparative analyses of matching techniques under dy namic operating conditions remain limited. This study presents a systematic evaluation of three impedance matching approaches, namely resonant, adaptive, and hybrid, via theoretical modeling and numerical simulations. The results prove that adaptive impedance matching maintains stable efficiency (90.0% +/- 0.9%) in load variations (20-100 Omega ), coil misalignment (0<bold>degrees</bold>-30<bold>degrees</bold>), and transmission distances (0.1-1 cm), with minimal fluctuations. In contrast, resonant matching shows the best efficiency (i.e., 95%) under ideal conditions (10 MHz, 0<bold>degrees</bold> misalignment, 50 Omega load) but degrades rapidly to <50% under deviation conditions (e.g., 30 misalignment or 1 cm distance). The hybrid solution yields a balanced compromise that maintaining 85-92% efficiency in larger operating ranges. Quantitative metrics-the fluctuation rate (adaptive: 0.07 vs. resonant: 0.15) and stability index (adaptive: 102 vs. resonant: 20)-exhibit adaptive matching's superior dynamic performance. These find ings present practical advice on selecting impedance matching techniques in real WPTapplications, such as electric vehicle charging and medical implants, where stability under variability is paramount.
