Article Influence of High Content of Sodium Doping in Bi(pb)2212 Superconductors(Pleiades Publishing, 2023) Faiza, Bouaïcha; Mosbah, Mohamed-Fayçal; Özyüzer, LütfiAbstract: We study here, the effect of high content of sodium doping on structural and electrical properties of Bi(Pb)2212 superconductors. The X-ray analysis results showed that all the prepared samples mainly belong to the superconducting tetragonal phase Bi–(Pb)2212. SEM micrographs show that the grains are closely related and have a characteristic flat shape for the superconductor Bi (Pb) 2212. For the undoped sample, the grains are randomly distributed with an average size of 5 μm. For doped samples, the morphology changes with sodium concentration. Resistivity measurements show that all samples have a superconducting character. © 2023, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Photonic Crystal Textiles for Heat Insulation(American Institute of Physics, 2023) Çetin, Zebih; Tunçtürk, Yiğit; Sözüer, Hüseyin SamiIn this work, we have studied transmission properties of a photonic crystal-like structure that can be woven into fabrics. An interesting possibility emerges when considering the potential energy savings through suppression of radiation. It is a well-established fact that every object at a finite temperature inherently emits electromagnetic waves. Within the specific context of the human body, radiation takes on a crucial role as a fundamental mechanism governing heat dissipation. Thus, exploring ways to manage or mitigate this radiation could offer innovative approaches to optimize energy consumption and enhance heat regulation. It is well known that a photonic crystal can block electromagnetic energy with a specific frequency that is falling into a photonic bandgap. By using the numerical method called a finite-difference time domain, we have shown that this property of a periodic structure can be used to make textiles to save energy that is used to heat a human body environment. Numerical calculations have shown that by using the proposed photonic crystal structure, 53 % of electromagnetic energy is reflected. Although we mainly focused on textiles, it is worth highlighting that the same fundamental principle can be extended to diverse fields; for example, this structure can be integrated with construction materials and effectively function as a radiation heat insulator. © 2023 Author(s).Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Effect of Oxidation on Mechanical Properties of Copper Nanowire: a Reaxff (reactive Force Field) Molecular Dynamics Study(Aip Publishing, 2023) Aral, Gürcan; Islam, Md MahbubulNanostructures with high surface area to volume ratio, such as oxidized and coated Cu nanowires (NWs), exhibit unique mechanical properties due to their size and surface effects. Understanding the complex oxidation process of Cu NWs at nanoscale and quantifying its resulting effects on mechanical behavior and properties are significantly essential for effective usage of Cu NW devices in a wide range of applications in nanoelectronics. Here, we perform molecular dynamics simulations using ReaxFF (reactive force field) to investigate the oxidation process and mechanisms of [001]-oriented cylindrical Cu NWs and its contribution on the mechanical deformation behavior and material properties as a function of NW sizes. The relatively thin oxide CuxOy layer is formed on the surface of Cu NWs in an O-2 environment, creating a core/shell (Cu/CuxOy) NW structure that played a key role in governing the overall tensile mechanical deformation behavior and properties of Cu NW. The formation of oxide layer effects, including the resulting interface and defects, leads to a reduction in the initial dislocation nucleation barrier, which facilitates the onset of plasticity and stress relaxation, ultimately resulting in a negative impact on the tensile strength, Young's modulus, yield stress and strain, and flow stress when compared to pristine counterparts. It is worth noting that the tensile mechanical response and properties of the Cu NWs are highly dependent on the pre-existing oxide shell layer associated with the size of NW, determining the overall mechanical performance and properties of Cu NWs.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Compact Multilayer Thin-Film Color Filters and Direct Integration on White-Light Diodes for Color Conversion(Optical Society of America, 2021) Yiğen, Serap; Ekmekçioğlu, Merve; Özdemir, Mehtap; Aygün, Gülnur; Özyüzer, LütfiWe present highly efficient green, yellow, and red filters based on a metal-dielectric structure. The filters encompass only five layers of alternating zinc tin oxide and silver thin films that are grown on soda lime glass and white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) using direct current magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The designed filters provide efficient color filtering in the visible spectrum. High purity colored light is obtained by direct application of filters on LEDs as color converters. The presented method offers an easy way for realizing different colors by tuning the thicknesses of layers in the structure.

The SiO2 layer was utilized as a lipid compatible surface that drives bilayer formation. The two types of surface morphologies i) wrinkled morphology by thermal evaporation (TE) and ii) flat morphology by pulsed electron deposition (PED) were obtained. The sensing performance of wrinkled and flat interfaced-GFETs were investigated, pH sensitivity of wrinkled interfaced-GFETs were found to be ten fold larger than the flat ones. The enhanced sensitivity is attributed to thinning of the oxide layer by formation of wrinkles thereby facilitating electrostatic gating on graphene. We foresee that described wrinkled SiO2 interfaced-GFET holds promise as a cell membrane mimicking sensing platform for novel bioelectronic applications. © 2020Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 8Investigation of the Structural and Optical Properties of Copper-Titanium Oxide Thin Films Produced by Changing the Amount of Copper(Elsevier Ltd., 2019) Horzum, Şeyda; Gürakar, Sibel; Serin, TülayWe examine how the structural, morphological and optical properties of TiO2 thin films are changed with heavily copper (Cu) content. Variations in characteristic properties of the films with 0, 12.5, 25 and 50 wt% Cu contents, grown by sol-gel dip coating method, are observed by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman scattering, atomic force microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis and optical spectroscopy measurements. The XRD and Raman spectra indicate that pure TiO2 film forms in the anatase structure. At high Cu concentrations, XRD results also reveal the substitution of Ti with Cu and formation of extra compound Copper-Titanium oxide. Raman measurements also show that Cu is incorporated homogeneously into TiO2 matrix up to 12.5 wt% concentration and this uniformity is distorted at higher Cu contents. In addition, optical spectroscopy measurements show that the optical band gap energy decreases from 3.26 eV to 2.05 eV with increasing Cu concentration. Furthermore, it is observed that the refractive index values obtained by means of transmittance spectra at 550 nm wavelength; increases from 2.47 to 3.39 when the Cu concentration increases from 0 to 50 wt %.
