Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Enhancing the Photo-Response Characteristics of Graphene/N-si Based Schottky Barrier Photodiodes by Increasing the Number of Graphene Layers(AVS, 2022) Fidan, Mehmet; Ünverdi, Özhan; Çelebi, Cem; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThe impact of the number of graphene layers on the spectral responsivity and response speed of graphene/n-type Si (Gr/n-Si)-based Schottky barrier photodiodes is investigated. Gr/n-Si photodiode devices are fabricated by transferring chemical vapor deposition-grown graphene layers one by one on n-Si substrates, reaching up to three graphene layers. The devices show a clear rectifying Schottky character and have a maximum responsivity at a peak wavelength of 905 nm. Wavelength-resolved and time-dependent photocurrent measurements demonstrated that both spectral responsivity and response speed are enhanced as the number of graphene layers is increased from 1 to 3 on n-Si substrates. For example, the spectral responsivity and the response speed of the fabricated device were found to be improved by about 15% (e.g., from 0.65 to 0.75 AW-1) and 50% (e.g., 14 to 7 μs), respectively, when three graphene layers are used as the hole-collecting cathode electrode. The experimentally obtained results showed that the device parameters, such as spectral responsivity and response speed of Gr/n-Si Schottky barrier photodiodes, can be boosted simply by increasing the number of graphene layers on n-Si substrates.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Few-Layer Mos2 as Nitrogen Protective Barrier(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2017) Akbalı, Barış; Yanılmaz, Alper; Tomak, Aysel; Tongay, Sefaattin; Çelebi, Cem; Şahin, Hasan; Çelebi, Cem; 03.01. Department of Bioengineering; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyWe report experimental and theoretical investigations of the observed barrier behavior of few-layer MoS2 against nitrogenation. Owing to its low-strength shearing, low friction coefficient, and high lubricity, MoS2 exhibits the demeanor of a natural N-resistant coating material. Raman spectroscopy is done to determine the coating capability of MoS2 on graphene. Surface morphology of our MoS2/graphene heterostructure is characterized by using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. In addition, density functional theory-based calculations are performed to understand the energy barrier performance of MoS2 against nitrogenation. The penetration of nitrogen atoms through a defect-free MoS2 layer is prevented by a very high vertical diffusion barrier, indicating that MoS2 can serve as a protective layer for the nitrogenation of graphene. Our experimental and theoretical results show that MoS2 material can be used both as an efficient nanocoating material and as a nanoscale mask for selective nitrogenation of graphene layer.
