Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Scanning Probe Oxidation Lithography on Ta Thin Films(American Scientific Publishers, 2008) Okur, Salih; Büyükköse, Serkan; Okur, Salih; Tarı, Süleyman; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyA Semi-Contact Scanning Probe Lithography Technique (SC-SPL) has been applied to create nano-oxide patterns on Ta thin films grown by DC magnetron sputtering method on SiO 2/Si substrates. The height and linewidth profiles of nano-oxide lines created by a conductive AFM tip on Ta film surfaces were measured as a function of applied voltage, oxidation time, humidity, and tip apex curvature. The AFM surface measurements show that the height of the oxides increases linearly with increasing voltage; but there was no oxide growth, when less than 4 V was applied even at 85% relative humidity. Electrical measurements were performed and the resistivities of the TaO x layer and Ta film were obtained as 5.76 × 10 8 and 1.4 × 10 5 Ohm-cm, respectively.Article Citation - WoS: 17Citation - Scopus: 21Humidity Sensing Properties of Chitosan by Using Quartz Crystal Microbalance Method(American Scientific Publishers, 2012) Havare, A. Kemal; İlgü, Hüseyin; Okur, Salih; Şanlı Mohamed, Gülşah; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyHumidity adsorption kinetics of chitosan films was investigated by quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) technique. In this study, chitosan was synthesized from chitin by deacetylation process in 2.0% (v/v) acetic acid solution and then coated on QCM to measure humidity response. The Langmuir model was used to determine the adsorption rates and Gibbs free energy for various relative humidity between 11% and 94%. The average Gibbs free energy for adsorption was obtained as 12.93 kJ/mol. Our reproducible experimental results show that chitosan films are very sensitive to relative humidity changes at room temperature. Copyright © 2012 American Scientific Publishers All rights reserved.
