Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 6Effect of external electric field on fluidization of rodlike particles using CFD-DEM(American Chemical Society, 2024) Kazemi, Saman; Aali, Hamed; Larijani, Roxana Saghafian; Zarghami, Reza; Liu, Helei; Mostoufi, NavidGiven the significant impact of an external electric field on fluidized bed hydrodynamics and the practical importance of rodlike particles, this study examines the behavior of a fluidized bed containing rodlike particles under various external electric fields. Simulations were performed using a coupled computational fluid dynamics-discrete element method, and rodlike particles were generated using a multisphere approach aided by quaternions. The effect of different vertical and horizontal external electric fields on the orientation of particles was investigated. Also, the effect of particle size on their orientation in the presence of constant vertical and horizontal external electric fields was explored in this work. The results showed that increasing the electric field strength and reducing the size of rodlike particles lead to an increment in the tendency of particles to become oriented along the direction of the electric field. Moreover, the effect of the external electric field at various inlet gas velocities on the probability distribution of the porosity in the bed was studied. Finally, the effect of vertical and horizontal electric fields on the bubble diameter was examined. This study offers a deeper understanding of the fluidization of rodlike particles in the presence of an electric field, and its findings can be applied to design and optimize related processes.Review Citation - WoS: 41Citation - Scopus: 43Electrochemical Sensors in the Food Sector: a Review(American Chemical Society, 2024) Ghaani, Masoud; Azimzadeh, Mostafa; Büyüktaş, Duygu; Carullo, Daniele; Farris, StefanoIn a world that is becoming increasingly concerned with health, safety, and the sustainability of food supply chains, the control and assurance of food quality have become of utmost importance.

Various techniques are used to ensure the recycling and reuse of water resources. Owing to their excellent chemical, physical, and biological properties, nanomaterials play an important role when integrated into water/wastewater treatment technologies. Black phosphorus (BP) is a potential nanomaterial candidate for water and wastewater treatment, especially its monolayer 2D derivative called phosphorene. Phosphorene offers relative adjustability in its direct bandgap, high charge carrier mobility, and improved in-plane anisotropy compared to the most extensively studied 2D nanomaterials. In this study, we examined the physical and chemical characteristics and synthetic processes of BP and phosphorene. We provide an overview of the latest advancements in the main applications of BP and phosphorene in water/wastewater treatment, which are categorized as photocatalytic, adsorption, and membrane filtration processes. Additionally, we explore the existing difficulties in the integration of BP and phosphorene into water/wastewater treatment technologies and prospects for future research in this field. In summary, this review highlights the ongoing necessity for significant research efforts on the integration of BP and phosphorene in water and wastewater applications. © 2024 American Chemical Society.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Weak Dependence of Voltage Amplification in a Semiconductor Channel on Strain State and Thickness of a Multidomain Ferroelectric in a Bilayer Gate(American Chemical Society, 2023) Misirlioglu, I.B.; Yapici, M.K.; Sendur, K.; Okatan, M.B.Ferroelectric/dielectric layered stacks are of special interest as gate oxides in the pursuit of designing low-power transistors, where the electrostatics of such stacks are thought to provide a means to allow for voltage amplification in the semiconductor channel. Strain and thickness dependence of the response of such a gate stack in relation to voltage amplification in a semiconductor channel becomes important to identify, which is what we study in this work using a thermodynamic approach. For a ferroelectric multidomain state as the stable phase in the stack, our findings show that a limited magnitude of voltage amplification appears to be feasible. Voltage amplification at the semiconductor surface is computed to hardly exceed 1.2 in thick bilayers (40 nm) for strains stabilizing the multidomain state and attains even less than this value for the thinner stacks. © 2023 American Chemical Society.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Plasmonic Functional Assay Platform Determines the Therapeutic Profile of Cancer Cells(American Chemical Society, 2023) Çetin, Arif E.; Topkaya, Seda Nur; Yazıcı, Ziya Ata; Yalçın Özuysal, ÖzdenFunctional assay platforms could identify the biophysicalpropertiesof cells and their therapeutic response to drug treatments. Despitetheir strong ability to assess cellular pathways, functional assaysrequire large tissue samples, long-term cell culture, and bulk measurements.Even though such a drawback is still valid, these limitations didnot hinder the interest in these platforms for their capacity to revealdrug susceptibility. Some of the limitations could be overcome withsingle-cell functional assays by identifying subpopulations usingsmall sample volumes. Along this direction, in this article, we developeda high-throughput plasmonic functional assay platform to identifythe growth profile of cells and their therapeutic profile under therapiesusing mass and growth rate statistics of individual cells. Our technologycould determine populations' growth profiles using the growthrate data of multiple single cells of the same population. Evaluatingspectral variations based on the plasmonic diffraction field intensityimages in real time, we could simultaneously monitor the mass changefor the cells within the field of view of a camera with the capacityof > & SIM;500 cells/h scanning rate. Our technology could determinethe therapeutic profile of cells under cancer drugs within few hours,while the classical techniques require days to show reduction in viabilitydue to antitumor effects. The platform could reveal the heterogeneitywithin the therapeutic profile of populations and determine subpopulationsshowing resistance to drug therapies. As a proof-of-principle demonstration,we studied the growth profile of MCF-7 cells and their therapeuticbehavior to standard-of-care drugs that have antitumor effects asshown in the literature, including difluoromethylornithine (DFMO),5-fluorouracil (5-FU), paclitaxel (PTX), and doxorubicin (Dox). Wesuccessfully demonstrated the resistant behavior of an MCF-7 variantthat could survive in the presence of DFMO. More importantly, we couldprecisely identify synergic and antagonistic effects of drug combinationsbased on the order of use in cancer therapy. Rapidly assessing thetherapeutic profile of cancer cells, our plasmonic functional assayplatform could be used to reveal personalized drug therapies for cancerpatients.Book Part The Role of Polyurethane Foam Indoors in the Fate of Flame Retardants and Other Semivolatile Organic Compounds(American Chemical Society, 2021) Genişoğlu, Mesut; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Sofuoğlu, AysunFlame retardant chemicals are added to polyurethane foams (PUFs) during production. These chemicals are released to the environment during the use of PUF containing furniture or building materials. In contrast, organic pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, synthetic musk compounds, and volatile organic compounds could be sorbed by PUF depending on the concentration gradient, ambient temperature, and the physicochemical properties. Most of these substances tend to accumulate by adhering to organic matter in dust, particles, and surfaces, as they do not degrade for long periods of time. Sorption-emission cycles of PUF-associated organic compounds prolong their presence in indoor environments, which could increase human exposure. Since these organic compounds might have carcinogenic or chronic-toxic health effects on living organisms, it is important to understand the role of PUF in exposure to these substances in indoor environments. This chapter reviews the literature on the relationship of organic substances with PUF in indoor environments.Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 16Silylethynyl substitution for preventing aggregate formation in perylene diimides(American Chemical Society, 2021) Aksoy, Erkan; Danos, Andrew; Li, Chunyong; Monkman, Andrew P.; Varlıklı, CananEthynylene-bridged perylene diimides (PDIs) with different sized silane groups have been synthesized as a steric blocking group to prevent the formation of non-radiative trap sites, for example, strong H-aggregates and other dimers or excimers. Excited singlet-state exciton dynamics were investigated by time-resolved photoluminescence and ultrafast pump-probe transient absorption spectroscopy. The spectra of the excimer or dimer aggregates formed by the PDIs at high concentrations were also determined. Although the photophysical properties of the bare and shielded PDIs are identical at micromolar concentrations, more shielded PDI2 and PDI3 exhibited resistance to aggregation, retaining higher photoluminescence quantum yield even at 10 mM concentration and in neat films. The PDIs also exhibited high photostability (1 h of continuous excitation), as well as electrochemical stability (multiple cycles with cyclic voltammetry). Prevention of dimer/aggregate formation in this manner will extend the uses of PDIs to a variety of high concentration photonics and optoelectronic applications, such as organic light-emitting diodes, organic photovoltaics, and luminescent solar concentrators.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 14Electroactive Nanogel Formation by Reactive Layer-By Assembly of Polyester and Branched Polyethylenimine Via Aza-Michael Addition(American Chemical Society, 2021) Yıldırımkaraman, Öykü; Özenler, Sezer; Günay, Ufuk Saim; Durmaz, Hakan; Yıldız, Ümit HakanWe here demonstrate the utilization of reactive layer-by-layer (rLBL) assembly to form a nanogel coating made of branched polyethylenimine (BPEI) and alkyne containing polyester (PE) on a gold surface. The rLBL is generated by the rapid aza-Michael addition reaction of the alkyne group of PE and the -NH2 groups of BPEI by yielding a homogeneous gel coating on the gold substrate. The thickness profile of the nanogel revealed that a 400 nm thick coating is formed by six multilayers of rLBL, and it exhibits 50 nm roughness over 8 mu m distance. The LBL characteristics were determined via depth profiling analysis by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and it has been shown that a 70-100 nm periodic increase in gel thickness is a consequence of consecutive cycles of rLBL. A detailed XPS analysis was performed to determine the yield of the rLBL reaction: the average yield was deduced as 86.4% by the ratio of the binding energies at 286.26 eV, (C CN-C bond) and 283.33 eV, (C C triple bond). The electrochemical characterization of the nanogels ascertains that up to the six-multilayered rLBL of BPEI-PE is electroactive, and the nanogel permeability had led to drive mass and charge transfer effectively. These results promise that nanogel formation by rLBL films may be a straightforward modification of electrodes approach, and it exhibits potential for the application of soft biointerfaces.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3Transport Modeling of Locally Photogenerated Excitons in Halide Perovskites(American Chemical Society, 2021) Tang, Kuen Wai; Li, Senlei; Weeden, Spencer; Song, Ziyi; McClintock, Luke; Xiao, Rui; Senger, Ramazan TuğrulExcitons have fundamental impacts on optoelectronic properties of semiconductors. Halide perovskites, with long carrier lifetimes and ionic crystal structures, may support highly mobile excitons because the dipolar nature of excitons suppresses phonon scattering. Inspired by recent experimental progress, we perform device modeling to rigorously analyze exciton formation and transport in methylammonium lead triiodide under local photoexcitation by using a finite element method. Mobile excitons, coexisting with free carriers, can dominate photocurrent generation at low temperatures. The simulation results are in excellent agreement with the experimentally observed strong temperature and gate dependence of carrier diffusion. This work signifies that efficient exciton transport can substantially influence charge transport in the family of perovskite materials.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 31-Octanol Is a Functional Impurity Modifying Particle Size and Photophysical Properties of Colloidal Zncdsse/Zns Nanocrystals(American Chemical Society, 2021) Sevim Ünlütürk, Seçil; Çağır, Ali; Varlıklı, Canan; Özçelik, SerdarImpurities in trioctylphophine (TOP) strongly affect nanocrystal synthesis. 1-Octanol among other contaminants in TOP is identified for the first time as a functional impurity by H-1 NMR. The deliberate addition of 1-octanol into trioctylphosphine reduced particle size and modified photophysical properties of ZnCdSSe/ZnS colloidal nanocrystals. NMR analysis furthermore revealed that 1-octanol is bonded to the nanocrystal surfaces. The ratio of integrals for the O-CH2 protons of 1-octanol, which is the lowest compared to the other ligands, suggests that 1-octanol plays a critical role to tune the particle size of nanocrystals. The increased amount of 1-octanol added into TOP reduces the particle size from 9.8 to 7.2 nm, causing a progressive blue shift in the UV-vis and PL spectra but leaving the alloy composition unaffected. The rate of nonradiative processes is enhanced with the amount of 1-octanol added into TOP, correlating with higher dislocation density observed in the nanocrystals. As a conclusion, 1-octanol is proposed as a functional impurity that varies particle size and nonradiative photophysical processes in the ZnCdSSe/ZnS colloidal nanocrystals.
