    (MMOB Tekstil Mühendisleri Odası, 2022) Kutlu, Bengi; Akşit, Aysun; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Selamet, Yusuf
    In this study, the distribution of plasma-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes in polyacrylonitrile nanocomposite fibers produced by wet spinning method using different surfactants (Triton-X and sodium dodecyl sulfate) was investigated. Firstly, we produced CNTs by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique. Secondly, low-pressure plasma functionalization of CNTs was realized. Finally, nanocomposite polyacrylonitrile fibers doped by CNTs were obtained using wet spinning technique. Properties of produced carbon nanotubes, functionalized carbon nanotubes and nanocomposite polyacrylonitrile fibers were examined by the analyses of chemical composition, surface structure, structural and mechanical properties.

    Study of the Effect of Various Chemical Polishing Treatments on Mbe-Grown Cdte/Gaas (211)b Heterostructures
    (Sakarya University, 2020) Bilgilisoy, E.; Özçeri, E.; Tarhan, E.
    A three-inch-diameter high quality CdTe thin film was grown on a GaAs (211)B substrate by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) in ultra-high vacuum conditions. The CdTe/GaAs (211)B heterostructure was then cut into several sample pieces. A few as-grown sample pieces were subjected to chemical etching solutions which created etch pits on the surface. The scanning electron microscopy images of such samples were used to calculate the etch pit densities on the surface. In addition, several as-grown samples were subjected to chemical polishing treatments under different conditions to quantify the removal of O and Te-O structures from the surface. Atomic force microscopy was used to determine as-grown and polished surface morphology and the polish rate of chemical solutions. A study of the surface stoichiometry and the chemical composition of the as-grown and polished CdTe (211)B surfaces were carried out by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Bulk structural qualities of the as-grown and polished samples were studied in terms of the vibrational and phonon modes via confocal Raman spectroscopy. From a comparative analyses of the results, the best chemical polishing conditions for the MBE-grown CdTe (211)B heterostructure were determined. © 2020, Sakarya University. All rights reserved.

    Investigation of Interactions of Acetylene Molecules With an Iron Nanowire and Its Effects on Mechanical Tensile Properties
    (Sakarya University, 2021) Aral, G.
    Understanding complex atomistic-scales interactions mechanisms of reactive acetylene (C2H2) molecules with reactive pure iron nanowires (Fe NWs) including its effects on the tensile mechanical properties of NWs is a crucial task in nanotechnology, especially having practical significance in the mechanical reliability, durability and stability. Therefore, we performed molecular dynamics (MD) simulations based on ReaxFF reactive force field interatomic potential model to investigate the interactions of C2H2 molecules with surface of cylindrical pure Fe NW and its fundamental effects on the tensile mechanical deformations properties of NWs at three different strain rates. Our results reveal that the chemical energetic reactions on the free surface of cylindrical Fe NW with C2H2 molecules in the gas phase form FexCyHz shell layer at temperature T=300 K. The presence of FexCyHz shell layer on the free surface of NW has a significant effect on the mechanical tensile deformation mechanism of the NWs. © 2021, Sakarya University. All rights reserved.

    The Synthesis of Ferromagnetic La0.75ca0.25mno3 Nanowires by a Sol-Gel Method
    (National Institute of Optoelectronics, 2010) Atalay, Funda E.; Yağmur, V.; Atalay, Selçuk; Kaya, Harun; Tarı, Süleyman; Avşar, D.
    In this study, densely packed La0.75Ca0.25MnO3 (LCMO) nanowires were synthesized within a porous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template by means of a sol-gel method using nitrate as raw material and ethylene glycol as the chelating agent. It was observed from measurements of hysteresis curves that the magnetic behavior of the LCMO nanowire arrays was strongly dependent on the pH of the solution. As it has been reported that bulk polycrystalline La0.75Ca0.25MnO3 samples have a Curie temperature of 224 K [1], it is interesting to find that nanowires produced at pH 3 show ferromagnetic properties at room temperature

    The Synthesis of Super-Hydrophilic and Hard Mgb2 Coatings as an Alternative To Electroless Nickel Coatings
    (Slovenska Akademia Vied, 2018) Bülbüll, Ferhat; Güney, M.; Jafarpour, Somaiyeh
    In this study, we report the electroless deposition using an alternative technique for the fabrication of hard and super-hydrophilic MgB2 films. MgB2 films on AZ91 magnesium alloys were prepared using an electroless bath containing magnesium diboride nanopowders, sodium hypophosphite, sodium succinate, sodium acetate, and dimethyl sulfoxide. The electroless deposition was carried out in a bath kept at a bath temperature of 95 degrees C for 60 min. After deposition, the coated samples were annealed at 300 degrees C for 60 min to investigate crystallization, morphology, and the changes in the hardness and wettability. The phase composition, morphology, the hardness, and the contact angle of produced coatings were studied by X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscopy, microhardness tester, and contact angle measurement system, respectively. The coatings exhibited a dense and nodular structure with strong grain connections. As-deposited and annealed MgB2 films showed an orientation with the (101) reflection, and the highest hardness value (500 HV0.01) was obtained from the annealed coating. Both synthesized coatings had a super-hydrophilic surface.

    Cnt Incorporated Polyacrilonitrile/Polypyrrole Nanofibers as Keratinocytes Scaffold
    (Trans Tech Publications, 2019) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Aypek, Hande; Öztürk, Özgür; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Özçivici, Engin; Meşe, Gülistan; Selamet, Yusuf
    Polypyrrole (PPy) is an attractive scaffold material for tissue engineering with its non-toxic and electrically conductive properties. There has not been enough information about PPy usage in skin tissue engineering. The aim of this study is to investigate biocompatibility of polyacrilonitrile (PAN)/PPy nanofibrous scaffold for human keratinocytes. PAN/PPy bicomponent nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning, in various PPy concentrations and with carbon nanotube (CNT) incorporation. The average diameter of electrospun nanofibers decreased with increasing PPy concentration. Further, agglomerated CNTs caused beads and disordered parts on the surface of nanofibers. Biocompatibility of these PAN/PPy and PAN/PPy/CNT scaffolds were analyzed in vitro. Both scaffolds provided adhesion and proliferation of keratinocytes. Nanofiber diameter did not significantly influence the morphology of cells. However, with increasing number of cells, cells stayed among nanofibers and this affected their shape and size. In this study, we demonstrated that PAN/PPy and PAN/PPy/CNT scaffolds enabled the growth of keratinocytes, showing their biocompatibility.

    The Growth of Silver Nanostructures on Porous Silicon for Enhanced Photoluminescence: The Role of Agno3 Concentration and Deposition Time
    (EDP Sciences, 2019) Çetinel, Alper; Artunç, Nurcan; Tarhan, Enver
    Silver nanostructures were obtained by using the electrodeposition method on n-type porous silicon (PSi) under different deposition times and concentrations of AgNO3 solutions. The analyses of the structural and photoluminescence properties of PSi/Ag were studied by SEM, XRD and photoluminescence spectroscopy. SEM analysis showed that the shape and size of Ag nanostructures significantly depend on the deposition time and concentration. It was found that spherical nanoparticles and thin Ag dendrites were obtained in short deposition times at 1 and 5 mM AgNO3 concentrations, whereas, Ag complex dendrite nanostructures formed in long deposition times. It was also found that only micro-sized Ag particles were formed at 10 mM. XRD results revealed that the degree of crystallization increases with increasing concentration. Photoluminescence analysis showed that the deposition time and concentration of AgNO3 remarkably affect the PL intensity of PSi/Ag samples. We determined a PL enhancement of similar to 2.7 for the PSi/Ag deposited at 120 s for 1 mM AgNO3. The improved PL intensity of PSi/Ag nanostructures can be explained by the combination of quantum confinement and surface states. PL analyses also indicated that with increasing deposition time and AgNO3 concentrations, the PL intensity of PSi/Ag structures significantly decreases due to the auto-extinction phenomenon.

    Comparison of Photocatalytic Properties of Tio2 Thin Films and Fibers
    (EDP Sciences, 2016) Özdemir, Mehtap; Kurt, Metin; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Aygün, Gülnur
    Efficiency of solar panels degrades as a result of organic contamination such as airborne particles, bird droppings and leaves. Any foreign object on photovoltaic panels reduces the sunlight entering the absorbing surface of the solar panels. Since this leads to a major problem decreasing in energy production, solar panels should be cleaned. The self-cleaning method can be preferred. There are some methods to clean the surface of solar panels. Among the self-cleaning materials, TiO2 is the most preferable ones because of its powerful photocatalytic properties. In this study, photocatalytic TiO2 were produced in two different nanostructures: nanofibers and thin films. TiO2 nanofibers were successfully produced by electrospinning. TiO2 thin films were fabricated by reactive magnetron sputtering technique. Both TiO2 nanofiber and thin film structures were heat-treated to form TiO2 in anatase phase at 600 °C for 2 h in air. Then, they were evaluated by SEM analyses for morphology, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses for phase structures, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) for the chemical state and atomic concentration, and UV-spectrometer for photocatalytic performance. The results indicate that photocatalytic and transmittance properties of TiO2 thin films are better than those of nanofibers. Consequently, TiO2 based thin films exhibit better performance for solar cell applications due to the surface cleanliness.
