Article Citation - Scopus: 1Oxidizer Gases Effects on the Diameter-Controlled Synthesis of Carbon Nanotubes(MIM Research Group, 2021) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Öğütlü, Deniz; Öğütlü, Ahmet Sabri; Öğütlü, Deniz; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyIn this study, the influence of the oxidizers on the synthesis of carbon nanotubes by C2H4 decomposition over Fe catalyst has been investigated. CO2, O2, and H2O have been used as oxidizers, and to control catalyst particle formation and their sizes in the pretreatment stage. The same oxidizers have also been used in the growth stage to maintain the catalyst particle size, remove amorphous carbon formation to keep catalyst particle active. The results of scanning electron microscopy indicated that the average diameters of nanotubes decreased from 13.4±1.2 nm to 6.2±0.5 nm and extremely dense nanotubes were obtained when we added a small amount of CO2. Adding O2 extremely decreased the areal carbon nanotube density while widens the diameter distribution. H2O addition resulted in larger average diameters and made the growth strongly pretreatment dependent. Within the parameters tried for catalyst pretreatment and CNT growth processes, CO2 seemed the best choice for a weak oxidizing assistant. The strong dependency of the average diameter on pretreatment conditions indicated that pretreatment is a very important step in deciding the final diameters and their distribution.Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 17Cnt Incorporated Polyacrilonitrile/Polypyrrole Nanofibers as Keratinocytes Scaffold(Trans Tech Publications, 2019) Meşe Özçivici, Gülistan; Selamet, Yusuf; Özçivici, Engin; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Özçivici, Engin; Meşe, Gülistan; Selamet, Yusuf; 03.01.

There has not been enough information about PPy usage in skin tissue engineering. The aim of this study is to investigate biocompatibility of polyacrilonitrile (PAN)/PPy nanofibrous scaffold for human keratinocytes. PAN/PPy bicomponent nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning, in various PPy concentrations and with carbon nanotube (CNT) incorporation. The average diameter of electrospun nanofibers decreased with increasing PPy concentration. Further, agglomerated CNTs caused beads and disordered parts on the surface of nanofibers. Biocompatibility of these PAN/PPy and PAN/PPy/CNT scaffolds were analyzed in vitro. Both scaffolds provided adhesion and proliferation of keratinocytes. Nanofiber diameter did not significantly influence the morphology of cells. However, with increasing number of cells, cells stayed among nanofibers and this affected their shape and size. In this study, we demonstrated that PAN/PPy and PAN/PPy/CNT scaffolds enabled the growth of keratinocytes, showing their biocompatibility.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 3Investigation of Lithium Sorption Efficiency Using Swcnt Functionalized Electrospun Fiber Mats From the Hypersaline Geothermal Brine(Trans Tech Publications, 2018) Çelik, Aslı; Topçu, Gökhan; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Baba, Alper; Horzum, Nesrin; Baba, Alper; Isık, Tuğba; Çelik, Aslı; 03.09.

Izmir Institute of TechnologyGeothermal mining from brines becomes increasingly important with the increasing demand for rare earth elements in various engineering applications. Geothermal fluids contain valuable minerals and metals such as silica, zinc, lithium, and other materials that can be processed to recover these products. Solution mining by nature is challenging because of variable composition as well as the concentration of the interfering ions, particularly calcium and magnesium, and the presence of interfering ions increases the recovery costs requiring additional steps. The aim of this study is the fabrication of single-walled carbon nanotube functionalized electrospun chitosan, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), and polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fiber mats. Effect of polymer type, dilution factor, and surface modification on the sorption of lithium (Li+) ions was investigated. The maximum sorption performance was obtained with SWCNT functionalized PAN (15 wt%) fiber mats and they have sorption percentage as 55% at diluted (1/100) brine samples.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 4Polymer Nanofiber-Carbon Nanotube Network Generating Circuits(SPIE, 2018) Mutlu, Mustafa Umut; Akın, Osman; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Mutlu, Mustafa Umut; 03.09.

Izmir Institute of TechnologyThe polymer nanofiber carbon nanotube (CNT) based devices attracts attention since they promise high performance for next generation devices such as wearable electronics, ultra-light weighted appliances and foldable devices. This abstract describes the utilization of polymer nanofibers and CNT as major component of low cost foldable photo-resistor. We use polymer nanofiber as template guiding CNTs to generate nanocircuits and conductive sensing network. The controlled combination of CNTs and polymer nanofibers provide opportunities for device miniaturization without loss of performance. The nanofiber-CNT network based photo-resistor exhibits broad band response 400 to 1600 nm that holding promises for ultra-thin devices and new sensing platforms.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 8Comparison of Electron and Phonon Transport in Disordered Semiconductor Carbon Nanotubes(Springer Verlag, 2013) Sevinçli, Haldun; Sevinçli, Haldun; Ryndyk, D. A.; Cuniberti, G.; 03.09. Department of Materials Science and Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyCharge and thermal conductivities are the most important parameters of carbon nanomaterials as candidates for future electronics. In this paper we address the effects of Anderson type disorder in long semiconductor carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to electron charge conductivity and lattice thermal conductivity using the atomistic Green function approach. The electron and phonon transmissions are analyzed as a function of the length of the disordered nanostructures. The thermal conductance as a function of temperature is calculated for different lengths. Analysis of the transmission probabilities as a function of length of the disordered device shows that both electrons and phonons with different energies display different transport regimes, i.e. quasi-ballistic, diffusive and localization regimes coexist. In the light of the results we discuss heating of the semiconductor device in electronic applications.
