    Photovoltaic Performance of Magnetron Sputtered Antimony Selenide Thin Film Solar Cells Buffered by Cadmium Sulfide and Cadmium Sulfide /Zinc Sulfide
    (Elsevier B.V., 2023) Cantas, A.; Gundogan, S.H.; Turkoglu, F.; Koseoglu, H.; Aygun, G.; Ozyuzer, L.
    Antimony selenide (Sb2Se3)-based thin-film solar cells have recently attracted worldwide attention as an abundant, low-cost, and efficient photovoltaic technology. The highest efficiencies recorded for Sb2Se3 solar cells have been obtained using cadmium sulfide (CdS) as a buffer layer. The Cd-included hybrid buffer layers could be one option to increase device efficiency through more effective usage of light. Therefore, in this work, the effect of single CdS and hybrid CdS/zinc sulfide (ZnS) buffer layers on the photovoltaic performance of Sb2Se3 thin-film solar cells has been investigated in detail. Sb2Se3 thin films have been deposited on molybdenum (Mo)-coated soda-lime glass (SLG) substrates by radio frequency magnetron sputtering technique followed by a post-heat treatment process. The morphological, and structural properties of Sb2Se3 thin films have been investigated by X-Ray Diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscopy. To compare the device performances of single CdS and hybrid CdS/ZnS buffered Sb2Se3 thin-film solar cells, SLG/Mo/Sb2Se3/CdS/ZnS/indium tin oxide (ITO) and SLG/Mo/Sb2Se3/CdS/ITO structures have been fabricated. The findings of this study have revealed a reduction in solar cells’ performance from η=3.93% for CdS buffer to η=0.13% for CdS/ZnS hybrid buffer. The change in the solar cell performance using the CdS/ZnS hybrid buffer has been discussed in detail. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.

    Using Loofah Reinforced Chitosan-Collagen Hydrogel Based Scaffolds In-Vitro and In-Vivo; Healing in Cartilage Tissue Defects
    (Elsevier B.V., 2023) Baysan, G.; Gunes, O.C.; Turemis, C.; Akokay, Yilmaz, P.; Husemoglu, R.B.; Kara, Ozenler, A.; Perpelek, M.
    The herein article aims to report a new scaffold design as a loofah-reinforced chitosan-collagen hydrogel composite scaffold with three different cross-linker concentrations (0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 wt. /v%). From the analyses, the scaffold crosslinked with 0.5% genipin; collagen-chitosan hydrogel scaffold reinforced with loofah (L-CCol5) was found to be suitable for further in vitro and in vivo studies due to its interconnected porous structure, water content (∼ 97%) and tan delta (0.221 at 1 Hz) values comparable to that of cartilage tissue. In vitro analyses depicted that the L-CCol5 scaffold supported rabbit mesenchymal stem cells (rMSCs) adhesion and proliferation with its non-cytotoxic feature. Moreover, in vivo cartilage healing studies were performed using New Zealand male rabbits in three groups: empty control, cell-free scaffold, and rMSCs-laden scaffold. The elastic moduli of these three groups were 0.69, 0.90, and 1.18 MPa, respectively. Besides, microcomputer tomography (MicroCT) scannings supported the in vivo biomechanical analyses as cell-laden scaffolds showed better osteochondral healing. It can be concluded that the L-CCol5 scaffold could be a promising construct in osteochondral tissue engineering applications. The findings revealed that osteochondral remodeling precedes articular cartilage, providing insight into tailored therapeutic approaches, disease progress, and treatment consequences. © 2023 Acta Materialia Inc.
