Article Citation - WoS: 50Citation - Scopus: 52Monitoring the Characteristic Properties of Ga-Doped Zno by Raman Spectroscopy and Atomic Scale Calculations(Elsevier, 2019) Horzum, Şeyda; Horzum, Şeyda; İyikanat, Fadıl; Çelebi, Cem; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Çelebi, Cem; Sbeta, Mohamed; Yıldız, Abdullah; Serin, Tülay; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyWe experimentally and theoretically study how the structural and vibrational properties of zinc oxide (ZnO) are modified upon Gallium (Ga) doping. The characteristics of Ga-doped ZnO thin films which are synthesized by sol-gel spin coating method on glass substrates are monitored by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman scattering measurements. For atomic-level understanding of the experimental findings state-of-the-art density functional theory (DFT) based calculations are also performed. DFT calculations reveal that both the substitution and adsorption of Ga atoms in ZnO are energetically possible and substitutional doping in ZnO is the most favourable scenario. XRD measurements show that all the films are in wurtzite structure and the crystallite size of the films decreases with increasing Ga doping. In addition, Raman analysis show that strong vibrational modes at about 100 and 441 cm(-1) are associated with E-2(low) and E-2(high) phonon branches of ZnO, respectively. While the frequency of the E-2(low) mode downshifts with increasing Ga concentration, the E-2(high) phonon mode is not affected by the Ga doping. Furthermore, E-Ga phonon branch, stemming from the substituted Ga atoms, emerges at low frequencies. It is also seen that the Raman intensity of the E-G(a) peak linearly increases with increasing Ga concentration. Experimental results on the vibrational properties are in good agreement with the ab initio phonon calculations. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V.

Department of Photonics; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyAn overview is given of recent advances in experimental and theoretical understanding of optical properties of ultra-thin crystal structures (graphene, phosphorene, silicene, MoS2 , MoSe2 , WS2 , WSe2 , h-AlN, h-BN, fluorographene, and graphane). Ultra-thin crystals are atomically thick-layered crystals that have unique properties which differ from their 3D counterpart. Because of the difficulties in the synthesis of few-atom-thick crystal structures, which are thought to be the main building blocks of future nanotechnology, reliable theoretical predictions of their electronic, vibrational, and optical properties are of great importance. Recent studies revealed the reliable predictive power of existing theoretical approaches based on density functional theory.Article Citation - WoS: 40Citation - Scopus: 40Nitrogenated, Phosphorated and Arsenicated Monolayer Holey Graphenes(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015) Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Horzum, Şeyda; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Horzum, Şeyda; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyMotivated by a recent experiment that reported the synthesis of a new 2D material nitrogenated holey graphene (C2N) [Mahmood et al., Nat. Commun., 2015, 6, 6486], the electronic, magnetic, and mechanical properties of nitrogenated (C2N), phosphorated (C2P) and arsenicated (C2As) monolayer holey graphene structures are investigated using first-principles calculations. Our total energy calculations indicate that, similar to the C2N monolayer, the formation of the other two holey structures are also energetically feasible. Calculated cohesive energies for each monolayer show a decreasing trend going from the C2N to C2As structure. Remarkably, all the holey monolayers considered are direct band gap semiconductors. Regarding the mechanical properties (in-plane stiffness and Poisson ratio), we find that C2N has the highest in-plane stiffness and the largest Poisson ratio among the three monolayers. In addition, our calculations reveal that for the C2N, C2P and C2As monolayers, creation of N and P defects changes the semiconducting behavior to a metallic ground state while the inclusion of double H impurities in all holey structures results in magnetic ground states. As an alternative to the experimentally synthesized C2N, C2P and C2As are mechanically stable and flexible semiconductors which are important for potential applications in optoelectronics.
