    Preparation and Characterizations of Tio2/Zno Nanohybrid and Its Application in Photocatalytic Degradation of Tetracycline in Wastewater
    (Elsevier, 2023) Zeinali Heris, Saeed; Etemadi, Martin; Mousavi, Seyed Borhan; Mohammadpourfard, Mousa; Ramavandi, Bahman
    The photodegradation of tetracycline antibiotics (TC) in an aqueous solution, using the TiO2 nanoparticles, ZnO microparticles, and TiO2/ZnO composite under the UV lamp in a continuous reactor, was performed. The effects of different parameters, such as the initial TC concentration, medium pH, ratio of each photocatalyst, and the flow rate were comprehensively studied. SEM, EDX, and XRD characterization techniques were employed to study the morphology and structure features of the prepared composite. The results revealed that a more significant amount of TC is not easily removed from wastewater. Furthermore, by increasing the pH of the medium to 11, the efficiency of TC degradation was increased, while the amount of removal remained stable at higher pH values. As the flow rate increased up to 190 mL/min, the removal efficiency increased; however, at higher flow rates, lower efficiency was obtained. Moreover, using multivariate analysis and response surface methodology (RSM), a model for removing TC and the effect of experimental parameters on removal efficiency was proposed. The optimal conditions using the RSM method were found to be the reduction efficiency of 78.94 % in pH = 11 (flow rate of 132 mL/min, and TiO2 concentration of 323 mg) and reduction efficiency of 75.89% in pH = 9 (flow rate of 143.19 mL/min and TiO2 concentration of 312.73 mg). © 2023 Elsevier B.V.

    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.

    Photocatalytic and Optical Properties of Zinc Oxide Structures Prepared at Different Urea Concentrations
    (Serban Solacolu Foundation, 2020) Uysal, Berk; Şen, Selin; Top, Ayben
    In this study, ZnO samples were synthesized using zinc acetate and urea with a method containing sonication, sol-gel transition and calcination steps. Urea to zinc acetate mole ratio values were changed as 0, 0.5, 1, and 2 and corresponding calcined samples were denoted as UZ-0, UZ-0.5, UZ-1, and UZ-2, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images indicated globular and rod-like structures. Aspect ratios of the nanorods increased as urea to zinc acetate ratio increased from 0 to 1 whereas nanoparticles with sizes of 70 +/- 20 nm were observed for UZ-2 sample. Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) surface area values of the samples varied between 9 and 25 m(2)/g and increased as initial urea amount increased. Band gap energies of the samples ranged between 3.24 and 3.29 eV. Four major peaks at about 400, 420, 480 and 530 nm with different intensities were observed in the photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the samples. All the samples removed rhodamine B by both adsorption and photodegradation. The highest visible light induced photodegradation rate was exhibited by UZ-2 sample having the highest surface area and it is attributed to superior charge separation properties of this sample under visible light.

    Degradation Behaviour of Ti-12nb Alloy Coated With Zno/Tin Double Layer
    (Elsevier, 2021) Çaha, İhsan; Alves, A. C.; Affonco, L. J.; da Silva, J. H. D.; Rodrigues, I. R.; Grandini, C. R.; Rocha, L. A.; Pinto, Ana Maria Pires; Lisboa Filho, P. N.; Toptan, Fatih
    Ti and its alloys have attracted attention for biomedical applications, but their low tribocorrosion resistance, lack of bioactivity and antimicrobial properties are still major clinical concerns. In this study a ZnO coating, intended to act as an antibacterial agent, was deposited on a Ti-12Nb alloy, which was previously coated with a TiN hard coating, for improving tribocormsion resistance. The idea behind is the proof-of -concept that ZnO is able to provide interesting tribological properties to the surface, thus inspiring new ZnO-containing surfaces that can combine antimicrobial properties and tribocormsion resistance. Thus, the corrosion behaviour was studied by open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and potentiodynamic polarization tests in phosphate buffered solution at body temperature. The tribocormsion behaviour was carried out at open circuit potential under 0.5 N of normal load, 1 Hz frequency, during 3600 s sliding in phosphate buffered solution at body temperature. The results indicated that duplex coating sample showed better corrosion resistance and drastically better tribocorrosion resistance compared to uncoated and single TiN coating samples.

    Manufacturing Radar-Absorbing Composite Materials by Using Magnetic Co-Doped Zinc Oxide Particles Synthesized by Sol-Gel
    (SAGE Publications Inc., 2020) Atay, Hüsnügül Yılmaz; İçin, Öykü
    An indicator of being a strong country in today's world is that they have powerful weapons. In this sector where science is used exceedingly, the "stealth" takes an important place. Radar-absorbing materials are used in stealth technology to disguise an object from radar detection, such that it can allow a plane to be perceived as a bird. In this study, Co-doped zinc oxide reinforced styrofoam sheet composites were manufactured as radar-absorbing materials. For this purpose, Co-doped zinc-ZnO particles were synthesized via the Sol-Gel method with doping concentrations of 0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12%. They were embedded in a styrofoam matrix with different loading levels to see the concentration dependence. The as-prepared powders were characterized by using X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscope-Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy. Magnetic characterization of samples was carried out using a vibrating sample magnetometer. Finally, the radar-absorbing test was applied with a network analyzer to achieve the main purpose of this research. It was concluded that Co-doped zinc oxide reinforced composites have electromagnetic properties that indicate potential applications in the radar-absorbing area.
