Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Staphylococcus Epidermidis Adhesion on Surface-Treated Open-Cell Ti6al4v Foams(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2016) Türkan, Uğur; Güden, Mustafa; Sudağıdan, Mert; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThe effect of alkali and nitric acid surface treatments on the adhesion of Staphylococcus epidermidis to the surface of 60% porous open-cell Ti6Al4V foam was investigated. The resultant surface roughness of foam particles was determined from the ground flat surfaces of thin foam specimens. Alkali treatment formed a porous, rough Na2Ti5O11 surface layer on Ti6Al4V particles, while nitric acid treatment increased the number of undulations on foam flat and particle surfaces, leading to the development of finer surface topographical features. Both surface treatments increased the nanometric-scale surface roughness of particles and the number of bacteria adhering to the surface, while the adhesion was found to be significantly higher in alkali-treated foam sample. The significant increase in the number of bacterial attachment on the alkali-treated sample was attributed to the formation of a highly porous and nanorough Na2Ti5O11 surface layer.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Surface Roughness Estimation of Mbe Grown Cdte/Gaas(211)b by Ex-Situ Spectroscopic Ellipsometry(American Institute of Physics, 2016) Karakaya, Merve; Bilgilisoy, Elif; Arı, Ozan; Selamet, Yusuf; Bilgilisoy, Elif; Selamet, Yusuf; Karakaya, Merve; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of ScienceSpectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) ranging from 1.24 eV to 5.05 eV is used to obtain the film thickness and optical properties of high index (211) CdTe films. A three-layer optical model (oxide/CdTe/GaAs) was chosen for the ex-situ ellipsometric data analysis. Surface roughness cannot be determined by the optical model if oxide is included. We show that roughness can be accurately estimated, without any optical model, by utilizing the correlation between SE data (namely the imaginary part of the dielectric function, <ϵ2 > or phase angle, ψ) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) roughness. <ϵ2 > and ψ values at 3.31 eV, which corresponds to E1 critical transition energy of CdTe band structure, are chosen for the correlation since E1 gives higher resolution than the other critical transition energies. On the other hand, due to the anisotropic characteristic of (211) oriented CdTe surfaces, SE data (<ϵ2 > and ψ) shows varieties for different azimuthal angle measurements. For this reason, in order to estimate the surface roughness by considering these correlations, it is shown that SE measurements need to be taken at the same surface azimuthal angle. Estimating surface roughness in this manner is an accurate way to eliminate cumbersome surface roughness measurement by AFM.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Formation and Characterisation of Nanoporous Tio2 Layers on Microroughened Titanium Surfaces by Electrochemical Anodisation(Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2014) Dikici, Tuncay; Güzelaydın, Abdurrahman Halis; Toparlı, Mustafa; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyNanoporous titanium dioxide (TiO2) layers were successfully formed by an electrochemical anodisation method on microroughened titanium (Ti) surfaces in fluoride containing aqueous electrolyte. Microroughened Ti surfaces were produced by sandblasting with Al2O3 particles of 50 μm in diameter and acid-etching in a blend of HCl/H2SO4 solution. The surface morphology, topography and chemical composition of the specimens were analysed by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The surface roughness and the wettability of treated Ti surfaces were measured using profilometry and a contact angle measurement system, respectively. With anodising of sandblasted-/acid etched surfaces, micrometre- and nanometre-scale textures on titanium specimens were created. Results showed that these developed nanoporous-microroughened surfaces exhibited lower contact angle values than the other treated Ti surfaces. The sandblasted/acid-etched/anodised Ti specimen had a surface morphology with distinctively formed hills and valleys and higher surface roughness than the other anodised specimens. This study indicated that nanoporous TiO2 structures fabricated on microroughened Ti can be an effective way to modify the titanium surfaces for the future development of implant applications.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 12Effect of Process Parameters on Surface Quality for Wire Saw Cutting of Alumina Ceramic(Gazi Üniversitesi, 2011) Teomete, Egemen; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologySilicon wafers are sliced using wire saw in micro electronics and photo voltaic industries. Wire saw process occupies a great portion of silicon wafer production cost which affects the market directly. The process is also used to cut ceramics, concrete and rocks in civil engineering. The high cost of the process motivates researchers to develop models that will relate the process efficiency and quality with process parameters. In this study, an experimental parametric study was conducted to investigate the effect of process parameters on the wire bow angle, distributed wire load and surface roughness in wire saw cutting of alumina ceramic. The material removal and surface damage formation mechanisms are identified. Process design recommendations for increasing efficiency of the process while keeping the surface roughness constant, are presented. The surface roughness increases with increasing feed rate, decreases with wire speed and is independent of wire tension. The material is removed by trans-granular failure of the grains while inter-granular fractures of the grains affect the surface quality.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Tensile Adhesion of Type I Collagen To Titanium Alloy and Calcium Phosphate Coated Surfaces With Different Roughness Values(IOS Press, 2002) Özerdem, Barış; Özerdem, Barış; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThe purpose of total joint arthroplasty is to reduce pain and restore function. Its success depends on the formation of a new bone that stabilizes the prosthesis. The proposed solution for this important problem is to have bio-coated implant surfaces which are more conductive to bone growth. Additionally, collagen has long been used as a matrix for medical applications, because of its biocompatibility and adaptability. In this study, a test method for measuring the tensile adhesion strength of collagen to titanium alloy and calcium phosphate coated surfaces with different roughness values was developed, in order to evaluate how well the collagen adheres to the metallic and bio-coated surfaces. A precision motion system was used to stretch gels that were adherent to the plate surfaces. The tests were done in DMEM solution. The adhesive strength between the collagen gel and plate was significantly higher for calcium phosphate coated surfaces. Adhesive strength was highest in the sample with the highest roughness value.
