Article Anisotropic Tunability of Vibrational Modes in Black Phosphorus Under Uniaxial Compressive/Tensile Strain(Wiley, 2023) Li, Hao; Kutlu, Tayfun; Carrascoso, Felix; Şahin, Hasan; Munuera, Carmen; Castellanos Gomez, AndresStrain engineering is a powerful strategy for tuning the optical, electrical, vibrational properties of 2D nanomaterials. In this work, a four-point bending apparatus is constructed to apply both compressive and tensile strain on 2D anisotropic black phosphorus flake. Further polarized Raman spectroscopy is used to study the vibrational modes of black phosphorus flakes under uniaxial strain applied along various crystalline orientations. Here, a strong anisotropic blue/redshift of A1g, B2g, and A2g modes is found under compressive/tensile strain, respectively. Interestingly, mode A1g exhibits the maximum/minimum shift while mode B2g and mode A2g present the minimum/maximum shift when the strain is applied along armchair/zigzag direction. Density functional theory calculations are carried out to investigate the anisotropic strain response mechanism, finding that the strain-induced regulation of the PP bond angle, bond length, and especially interlayer interaction has a giant influence on the Raman shift. A four-point bending apparatus is constructed to study the effect of uniaxial strain on the vibrational property of anisotropic black phosphorus. Particularly, strong anisotropy on the Raman blueshift/redshift rate upon compressive/tensile strain can be observed, which results from the strain-induced regulation of the bond angle, bond length, and interlayer interactions according to density functional theory calculation analysis.imageCorrection Correction To: “curved Space and Particle Physics Effects on the Formation of Bose–einstein Condensation Around a Reissner–nordstrøm Black Hole”(Springer, 2022) Erdem, Recai; Demirkaya, Betül; Gültekin, KemalAfter this correction Fig. 1 in [1] is replaced by Fig. 1 above which is essentially the same as the one in [1].

In our device design, monolayer graphene is utilized as a common electrode on a lithographically defined linear array of n-type Si channels on a SOI substrate. As revealed by wavelength resolved photocurrent spectroscopy measurements, each element in the PDA structure exhibited a maximum spectral responsivity of around 0.1 A/W under a self-powered operational mode. Time-dependent photocurrent spectroscopy measurements showed excellent photocurrent reversibility of the device with ∼1.36 and ∼1.27 μs rise time and fall time, respectively. Each element in the array displayed an average specific detectivity of around 1.3 × 1012 Jones and a substantially small noise equivalent power of ∼0.14 pW/Hz-1/2. The study presented here is expected to offer exciting opportunities in terms of high value-added graphene/Si based PDA device applications such as multi-wavelength light measurement, level metering, high-speed photometry, and position/motion detection.Article Citation - WoS: 33Citation - Scopus: 39High Transparent, Low Surface Resistance Zto/Ag Multilayer Thin Film Electrodes on Glass and Polymer Substrates(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021) Ekmekçioğlu, Merve; Erdoğan, Nursev; Astarlıoğlu, Aziz Taner; Yiğen, Serap; Aygün, Gülnur; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Özdemir, MehtapZinc tin oxide (ZTO)/Ag/ZTO multilayer thin films were grown by direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering technique at room temperature on soda lime glass (SLG) and different polymer substrates such as polycarbonate (PC) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) for transparent conductive electrode (TCE) applications. The effect of substrate on the structural, optical and electrical characteristics of ZTO/Ag/ZTO multilayers was investigated. All prepared ZTO/Ag/ZTO films presented amorphous structure as expected from room temperature deposition process and smooth surface quality with very low surface roughness. We found that ZTO/Ag/ZTO multilayer films grown on SLG, PET and PC substrates have very high optical transmission and low surface resistance. Moreover, after ZTO/Ag/ZTO multilayer thin film deposition on polymer substrates, the optical transmission was found to be enhanced because the higher absorption due to Ag layer is compensated by lower reflectance. Our results suggest that ZTO/Ag/ZTO multilayer thin films on any substrate can be a promising alternative to indium tin oxide (ITO) films as a cost-effective, indium-free, flexible and transparent electrode for various applications.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Substrate Effects on Electrical Parameters of Dirac Fermions in Graphene(Elsevier, 2021) Tıraş, Engin; Ardalı, Şükrü; Fırat, Hakan Asaf; Arslan, Engin; Özbay, EkmelThe substrate effects on the electronic transport properties of single-layer graphene on TiO2/Si substrate have been studied. The Hall mobility, sheet carrier density, and transport lifetime were obtained from the temperature-dependent Hall measurements, while the in-plane effective mass, quantum lifetime was obtained from the temperature-dependent variation of the Shubnikov de Haas (SdH) oscillations that were made at 1.8 to 45 K temperature range and up to the magnetic field of 11 T. The measurement results showed that in SLG/TiO2/ Si sample, there were 2.36 +/- 0.12x1016 m-3 amounts of 3D carriers coming from the substrate. In our previous studies, 3D carrier densities were measured as 6.07x1016 m-3 and zero for SLG/SiO2/Si and SLG/SiC sample, respectively. This result shows that the 3D carriers formed in the structure are significantly changed by a substrate. The scattering mechanisms were determined using the zt/zq ratio. The ratio values obtained as 3.66. This value obtained was compared with the values we found for SLG/SiC (zt/zq=1.36) sample and SLG/TiO2/Si (zt/zq=3.08) sample our previous study. The results show that small-angle scattering is dominant in SLG/SiC sample, but large-angle scattering is dominant in SLG/SiO2/Si and SLG/TiO2/Si samples. The charged impurity scattering is the dominant scattering mechanism in SLG/TiO2/Si and SLG/SiO2/Si samples, whereas in SLG/SiC samples, a short-range scattering mechanism such as lattice defects can be said to affect the electronic transport.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Curved Space and Particle Physics Effects on the Formation of Bose-Einstein Condensation Around a Reissner-Nordstrom Black Hole(Springer, 2021) Erdem, Recai; Demirkaya, Betül; Gültekin, KemalWe consider two scalar fields interacting through a chi*chi phi*phi term in the presence of a Reissner-Nordstrom black hole. Initially, only chi particles are present. We find that the produced phi particles are localized in a region around the black hole and have a tendency toward condensation provided that phi particles are much heavier than the chi particles. We also find that such a configuration is phenomenologically viable only if the scalars and the black hole have dark electric charges.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Particle Physics Processes in Cosmology Through an Effective Minkowski Space Formulation and the Limitations of the Method(Springer, 2021) Erdem, Recai; Gültekin, KemalWe introduce a method where particle physics processes in cosmology may be calculated by the usual perturbative flat space quantum field theory through an effective Minkowski space description at small time intervals provided that the running of the effective particle masses are sufficiently slow. We discuss the necessary conditions for the applicability of this method and illustrate the method through a simple example. This method has the advantage of avoiding the effects of gravitational particle creation in the calculation of rates and cross sections i.e. giving directly the rates and the cross sections due to the scatterings or the decay processes.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Room Temperature Emission From Single Defects in Wo3 Enhanced by Plasmonic Nanocrystals(American Institute of Physics, 2021) Özçeri, Elif; Polat, Nahit; Balcı, Sinan; Tarhan, EnverRoom temperature light emission from optically active defect centers in two-dimensional layered materials has attracted great interest in recent years owing to the critical applications in the field of quantum information technologies. Therefore, efficient generation, detection, characterization, and manipulation of spatially localized emission from the defect centers are of crucial importance. Here, we report localized, stable, and bright room temperature photoluminescence (PL) emission from defects in WO3. In particular, the experimentally observed polarized and power dependent PL emission shows single photon characteristics. In addition, density functional theory calculations indicate that the source of the emission is most probably oxygen vacancy defects in WO3. The PL emission obtained from the localized defect centers in WO3 at room temperature has been, further, enhanced more than 20 times by using plasmonic gold nanoparticles.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 15Ag and Au Atoms Intercalated in Bilayer Heterostructures of Transition Metal Dichalcogenides and Graphene(American Institute of Physics, 2014) İyikanat, Fadıl; Şahin, Hasan; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Peeters, François M.The diffusive motion of metal nanoparticles Au and Ag on monolayer and between bilayer heterostructures of transition metal dichalcogenides and graphene are investigated in the framework of density functional theory. We found that the minimum energy barriers for diffusion and the possibility of cluster formation depend strongly on both the type of nanoparticle and the type of monolayers and bilayers. Moreover, the tendency to form clusters of Ag and Au can be tuned by creating various bilayers. Tunability of the diffusion characteristics of adatoms in van der Waals heterostructures holds promise for controllable growth of nanostructures. (C) 2014 Author(s).

Numerical calculations are used for an exact description of the microwave induced interactions, and employed to benchmark a perturbative treatment that yields simple insights into the involved mechanisms. Based on this theory, we demonstrate that microwave dressing provides a powerful approach to control dipolar as well as van der Waals interactions and even permits us to turn them off entirely. In addition, the proposed scheme also opens up possibilities for engineering dominant three-body interactions.
