Article Citation - WoS: 46Citation - Scopus: 50Investigation of Europium Concentration Dependence on the Luminescent Properties of Borogermanate Glasses(Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Gökçe, Melis; Şentürk, Ufuk; Uslu, Deniz K.; Burgaz, Gözde; Şahin, Yüksel; Gökçe, Aytaç GürhanIn order to elucidate the effect of europium content on the optical and luminescent properties of borogermanate glasses, a series of Eu3+ doped 30B2O3-40GeO2-(30-x)Gd2O3 glasses with various doping levels (x=1–9 mol%) have been synthesized and studied with transmission, absorption, photoluminescence and decay time measurements. The transmission spectra proved that the title glasses maintained a high transparency about 80% in the 440 to 900 nm region. Based on the absorption spectra, the optical band gaps obtained from Tauc's plot can be narrowed by increasing content of Eu3+. From the photoluminescence spectra, the strongest red emission has been observed from the 5D0→7F2 level of Eu3+ ions in borogermanate glasses. The strongest emission and excitation intensities of Eu3+ ions are at the doping level of x=7 mol% and then these intensities decrease due to concentration quenching. The red to orange ratio (R/O) of 5D0→7F2 to 5D0→7F1 transitions has been investigated to predict the local environment of Eu3+ ions. Judd-Ofelt (J-O) analyses have been performed from the emission spectra. The values of R/O and Ω2 present an increase with increasing doping level, indicating the lower symmetric environment for Eu3+ ions and higher covalency for Eu-O bond. The emission efficiency calculated from J-O theory is 75% at x=2 mol%. The decay time curves of 6P7/2→8S7/2 transition of Gd3+ ions and 5D0–7F2 transition of Eu3+ ions confirm the energy transfer from Gd3+ to Eu3+ ions.Article Citation - WoS: 26Citation - Scopus: 26Optical Enhancement of Phosphor-Converted Wleds Using Glass Beads(Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Güner, Tuğrul; Şentürk, Ufuk; Demir, Mustafa MuammerYAG:Ce3+ is a yellow-source compound commonly used in phosphor conversion layers for direct coating or remote phosphor configurations in LED illumination. This material, however, suffers from a high correlated color temperature, and low color-rendering index due to its deficiency in the red spectrum. In this study, glass beads (GB) with an average particle diameter of 10 μm were introduced to the conversion layer of a YAG:Ce3+ particulate-filled polydimethylsiloxane matrix composite structure and found to improve the optical features of the resulting composite.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 16Experimental Modeling of Silicate-Based Geothermal Deposits(Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Çelik, Aslı; Topçu, Gökhan; Baba, Alper; Akdoğan, Yaşar; Şentürk, Ufuk; Demir, Mustafa MuammerScaling by metal silicates represents a major obstacle for geothermal systems. A composition that enables the fabrication of artificial deposits is necessary for the rapid testing of potential inhibitors. In this work, artificial deposits were synthesized by employing experimental conditions similar to those in the Tuzla Geothermal Field in Turkey. Although refluxing enabled the formation of a precipitate that was similar to naturally formed deposits in color and texture, their elemental composition and morphology showed a mismatch. An autoclave enabled the production of a precipitate that more closely resembled naturally formed deposits in color, texture, elemental composition, and structure.
