    Experimental and Computational Investigation of Graphene/Sams Schottky Diodes
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2018) Aydın, Hasan; Bacaksız, Cihan; Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Karakaya, Caner; Mermer, Ömer; Can, Mustafa; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Şahin, Hasan; Selamet, Yusuf
    We have investigated the effect of two different self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on electrical characteristics of bilayer graphene (BLG)/n-Si Schottky diodes. Novel 4″bis(diphenylamino)-1, 1′:3″-terphenyl-5′ carboxylic acids (TPA) and 4,4-di-9H-carbazol-9-yl-1,1′:3′1′-terphenyl-5′ carboxylic acid (CAR) aromatic SAMs have been used to modify n-Si surfaces. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) results have been evaluated to verify the modification of n-Si surface. The current–voltage (I–V) characteristics of bare and SAMs modified devices show rectification behaviour verifying a Schottky junction at the interface. The ideality factors (n) from ln(I)–V dependences were determined as 2.13, 1.96 and 2.07 for BLG/n-Si, BLG/TPA/n-Si and BLG/CAR/n-Si Schottky diodes, respectively. In addition, Schottky barrier height (SBH) and series resistance (R s ) of SAMs modified diodes were decreased compared to bare diode due to the formation of a compatible interface between graphene and Si as well as π–π interaction between aromatic SAMs and graphene. The CAR-based device exhibits better diode characteristic compared to the TPA-based device. Computational simulations show that the BLG/CAR system exhibits smaller energy-level-differences than the BLG/TPA, which supports the experimental findings of a lower Schottky barrier and series resistance in BLG/CAR diode.

    Synthesis and Characterization of Cationic Lipid Coated Magnetic Nanoparticles Using Multiple Emulsions as Microreactors
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Akbaba, Hasan; Karagöz, Uğur; Selamet, Yusuf; Kantarcı, A. Gülten
    The aim of this study was to develop a novel iron oxide nanoparticle synthesis method with in-situ surface coating. For this purpose multiple emulsions were used as microreactors for the first time and magnetic iron oxide particles synthesized in the core of cationic solid lipid nanoparticles. DLS, SEM, TEM, VSM, Raman Spectrometer, XRD, and XPS techniques were performed for characterization of the magnetic nanoparticles. Obtained magnetic nanoparticles are superparamagnetic and no additional process was needed for surface adjustments. They are positively charged as a result of cationic lipid coating and has appropriate particle size (<30 nm) for drug or nucleic acid delivery. Structure analysis showed that magnetic core material is in the form of magnetite. Saturation magnetization value was measured as 15–17 emu g−1 for lipid coated magnetic nanoparticles obtained by multiple emulsion method which is reasonably sufficient for magnetic targeting.

    The Effects of Catalyst Pretreatment, Growth Atmosphere and Temperature on Carbon Nanotube Synthesis Using Co-mo/Mgo Catalyst
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2015) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Selamet, Yusuf
    The growth of high quality and high yield carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of CH4 over Co-Mo/MgO catalyst was investigated for different growth temperatures and H2 flow rates. It was observed that CNT yield decreased with the H2 flow rate, however, quality increased with increasing H2 flow rate. CNT yield increased for the temperatures 850-950 °C but dropped significantly above 950 °C. In this study, the highest yield of 1526% was obtained at the growth temperature of 950 °C. The optimum H2 flow rate was 200 sccm; this rate gave both high graphitization and high yield of product. Various CNT growth atmospheres including Ar, H2 and the mixture of both gases were also analyzed and it was observed that the highest quality CNTs were obtained for both pretreatment and growth carried out with H2. This gave a high yield of 292%. On the other hand, CNT growth carried out under Ar atmosphere gave higher CNT yield of 368%, however, the CNTs grown with Ar were more defective and had larger diameters. Prime novelty statement We demonstrate a sorbitol added catalysis synthesis method and importance of the ideal growth conditions to improve high quality single walled carbon nanotube yield up to 1500%.

    Development of Electrically Conductive and Anisotropic Gel-Coat Systems Using Cnts
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Tanoğlu, Metin; Selamet, Yusuf
    Electrical conductivity of an unsaturated thermoset polyester based gel-coat system containing 0.05 wt.% of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was investigated. The CNTs used were synthesized by chemical vapor deposition method by methane decomposition and Raman characterization showed that they were mostly single walled and high quality. To disperse CNTs in the gel-coat resin, 3-roll milling technique was used. It was found that as the CNTs are added to gel-coat system, resistivity value decreases significantly while neat gel-coat showed a high resistivity. By the application of an AC electrical field during curing process, it was attempted to align CNTs in the gel-coat resin and an electrically anisotropic polymer was obtained. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.
