    Fabrication and Properties of Novel Porous Ceramic Membrane Supports From the (sig) Diatomite and Alumina Mixtures
    (Elsevier, 2022) Aouadja, Faycal; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Güvenç, Çetin Meriç; Demir, Mustafa M.; 03.09. Department of Materials Science and Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    In this paper, the manufacturing of macro-porous tubular ceramic supports for membranes is described. The novel supports are fabricated from natural diatomite and alumina raw materials using the extrusion method. The structure was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and mercury porosimetry techniques; the presence of possible defects was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The permeability has been measured from water flux in standard experiments. Experimental results show that the open porosity, the average pore size (APS), the pore size distribution, the strength, and the permeability of sintered supports, have been found to depend, mainly on the concentration of alumina (Al2O3) additive. Supports prepared with the addition of 10 wt.% of alumina and sintered at 1200 degrees C, can be considered as the most optimized; they have a porosity ratio of about 46%, an APS is around 7.7 mu m, a flexural strength value of about 28 MPa, and water permeability of around 15 m(3)h(-1) m(-2) bar(-1). Such materials could be of great interest in the supports fabrication for membrane application, for instance, water filtration. (C) 2021 SECV. Published by Elsevier Espana, S.L.U.

    Gd3+-Doped Alpha-Cspbi3 Nanocrystals With Better Phase Stability and Optical Properties
    (American Chemical Society, 2019) Güvenç, Çetin Meriç; Şahin, Hasan; Yalçınkaya, Yenal; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Özen, Sercan; Şahin, Hasan; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; 04.04.

    Black alpha-CsPbI3 perovskites are unable to maintain their phase stability under room conditions; hence, the alpha-CsPbI3 phase transforms into a thermodynamically stable yellow delta-CsPbI3 phase within a few days, which has a nonperovskite structure and high band gap for optoelectronic applications. This phase transformation should be prevented or at least retarded to make use of superior properties of alpha-CsPbI3 in optoelectronic applications. In this study, Gd3+ doping was employed with the aim of increasing the stability of alpha-CsPbI3. All doped alpha-CsPbI3 nanocrystals with various levels of Gd3+, between 5 and 15 mol %, have shown greater phase stability than that of the pure alpha-CsPbI3 phase from 5 days up to 11 days under ambient conditions. This prolonged phase stability can be attributed to three potential reasons: increased tolerance factor of the perovskite structure, distorted cubic symmetry, and decreased defect density in nanocrystals. Urbach energy values suggest the reduction of defect density in the doped nanocrystals. Also, use of 10 mol % Gd3+ as a dopant material increases the photoluminescence quantum yield from 70 to 80% and fluorescence lifetime of alpha-CsPbI3 from 47.4 to 64.4 ns. Further, density functional theory calculations are in a good agreement with the experimental results.
