    Flexible Metal/Semiconductor Type Photodetectors Based on Manganese Doped Zno Nanorods
    (Elsevier, 2023) Karagöz, Emine; Altaf, Çiğdem Tuç; Yaman, Ecenaz; Yıldırım, İpek Deniz; Erdem, Emre; Çelebi, Cem; Fidan, Mehmet; Sankir, Mehmet; Demirci Sankir, Nurdan
    High-performance flexible photodetectors are one of the most interesting research areas due to their great possibilities for a variety of applications such as portable and wearable optoelectronics. This study verifies the performance of flexible metal/semiconductor/metal-type photodetector based on pristine and manganese doped ZnO nanorods (ZnO-NRs) prepared in two different concentrations of zinc precursors and manganese dopant at low temperatures. The photodetectors having ZnO-NRs with high aspect ratios were investigated by various material characterization techniques such as electron paramagnetic resonance and photoluminescence spectroscopy to confirm the relationship between defect concentrations and photodetector performance parameters. It has been calculated that the detectivity (D*) and responsivity (R) of the ZnO nanorod-based photodetectors increased 20 and 18 folds, respectively by increasing the concentration of zinc precursor. Besides the D* and R values of the photodetectors, prepared by the 16.5 mM zinc precursor, increased 18 and 4.5-fold, respectively, after manganese doping. We confirmed that even a very low concentration of zinc precursor could produce a photodetector with high performance in photo-response characteristics, flexibility, and stability against 10,000 cycles of convex/concave bending.(c) 2023 Elsevier B.V.

    The Comparison of Transient Photocurrent Spectroscopy Measurements of Pulsed Electron Deposited Zno Thin Film for Air and Vacuum Ambient Conditions
    (Elsevier, 2019) Özdoğan, Mehmet; Yiğen, Serap; Çelebi, Cem; Utlu, Gökhan
    Photoconduction mechanism of ZnO thin films that produced by Pulsed Electron Deposition method is systematically investigated by taking Transient Photocurrent Spectroscopy measurements for different atmospheres including high vacuum and air environments. Response and recovery rates of photocurrent in the air are faster than the rates in high vacuum condition. The results in the presented work clearly indicate that the photoconduction of ZnO thin films with high surface-area-to-volume ratio are surface-related and mostly governed by adsorption/desorption of oxygen and water molecules in the atmosphere. Therefore, the high surface interaction tendency of ZnO surface with the atmosphere inevitably leads to charge transfer from surface to adsorbates and/or vice versa.

    Zinc Oxide and Metal Halide Perovskite Nanostructures Having Tunable Morphologies Grown by Nanosecond Laser Ablation for Light-Emitting Devices
    (American Chemical Society, 2020) Demirci Sankir, Nurdan; Abdullayeva, Nazrin; Altaf, Çiğdem Tuç; Kumtepe, Alihan; Yılmaz, Nazmi; Coşkun, Özlem; Sankir, Mehmet; Kurt, Hamza; Çelebi, Cem; Yanılmaz, Alper
    This work reports a one-pot chemical bath deposition (CBD) method for the preparation of selectively grown, morphology-tunable zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures provided via straightforward nanosecond fiber laser ablation. Nanosecond fiber laser ablation is different from lithographic methods due to its simple, time saving, and efficient film scribing abilities. Here, multiple morphologies of the ZnO nanostructures on the same substrate have been grown via laser ablation of the ZnO seeding layer. Selective and controlled ablation of the titanium layer, ZnO growth inhibitor, resulted in systematic growth of nanorod arrays, while the application of extensive fluence energies resulted in the penetration of the laser beam until the glass substrate induced the nanoflake growth within the same CBD environment. The laser penetration depth has been numerically investigated via COMSOL Multiphysics heat module simulations, and the optical variations between two nanostructures (nanorod and nanoflake) have been examined via Lumerical FDTD. The simultaneous growth of two morphologies served as an efficient tool for the enhancement of photoluminescence intensities. It increased the average charge carrier lifetimes of the thin films from approximately 2.01 to 9.07 ns under the same excitation wavelengths. The amplification in PL performances has been accomplished via the capstone of all-inorganic halide perovskite (IHP) deposition that brought a successful conclusion to lifetime responses, which have been increased by 1.4-fold. The development of IHP sensitized nanoscaled multimorphological ZnO thin films can, therefore, be used as potential nanomaterials for light-emitting-device applications. © 2020 American Chemical Society.

    Effect of Substrate Rotation Speed and Off-Center Deposition on the Structural, Optical, and Electrical Properties of Azo Thin Films Fabricated by Dc Magnetron Sputtering
    (American Institute of Physics, 2018) Türkoğlu, Fulya; Aygün, Gülnur; Köseoğlu, Hasan; Özdemir, Mehtap; Zeybek, S.; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Özdemir, Mehtap; Özyüzer, Gülnur Aygün; Özyüzer, Lütfi
    In this study, aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films were deposited by DC magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The distance between the substrate and target axis, and substrate rotation speed were varied to get high quality AZO thin films. The influences of these deposition parameters on the structural, optical, and electrical properties of the fabricated films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, spectrophotometry, and four-point probe techniques. The overall analysis revealed that both sample position and substrate rotation speed are effective in changing the optical, structural, and electrical properties of the AZO thin films. We further observed that stress in the films can be significantly reduced by off-center deposition and rotating the sample holder during the deposition. An average transmittance above 85% in the visible range and a resistivity of 2.02 × 10-3Ω cm were obtained for the AZO films.

    Humidity-Sensing Properties of a Zno Nanowire Film as Measured With a Qcm
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2011) Erol, Ayşe; Okur, Salih; Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Arıkan, M. Çetin
    The humidity-sensing properties of ZnO nanowires synthesized by carbothermal catalyst-free vapor solid (VS) technique were studied. The morphology and the crystal structure were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. The humidity adsorption and desorption kinetics of the synthesized ZnO nanowires were investigated via quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) measurements. The observed positive frequency shift of ZnO nanowires when loaded on the QCM crystal under varying relative humidity conditions can be explained in terms of visco-elastic variations in their mechanical stiffness.

    Humidity Sensing Properties of Zno Nanoparticles Synthesized by Sol-Gel Process
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Erol, Ayşe; Okur, Salih; Comba, B.; Mermer, Ömer; Arıkan, M. Ç.
    ZnO nanoparticles have been synthesized by the sol-gel method with approximately 10 nm diameter and the humidity adsorption and desorption kinetics of ZnO nanoparticles were investigated by quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) technique. The morphology and crystal structure of the ZnO nanoparticles have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. The roughness of the surface has been investigated using atomic force microscope (AFM). The dynamic Langmuir adsorption model was used to determine the kinetic parameters such as adsorption and desorption rates and Gibbs free energy under relative humidity between 45% and 88%. The relative sensitivity of the ZnO nanoparticles-based humidity sensor was determined by electrical resistance measurements. Our reproducible experimental results show that ZnO nanoparticles have a great potential for humidity sensing applications at room temperature operations. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
