    Physically Unclonable Security Patterns Created by Electrospinning, and Authenticated by Two-Step Validation Method
    (IOP Publishing, 2022) Taşcıoğlu, Didem; Atçı, Arda; Sevim Ünlütürk, Seçil; Özçelik, Serdar
    Counterfeiting is a growing economic and social problem. For anticounterfeiting, random and inimitable droplet/fiber patterns were created by the electrospinning method as security tags that are detectable under UV light but invisible in daylight. To check the authenticity of the original security patterns created; images were collected with a simple smartphone microscope and a database of the recorded original patterns was created. The originality of the random patterns was checked by comparing them with the patterns recorded in the database. In addition, the spectral signature of the patterns in the droplet/fiber network was obtained with a simple and hand-held spectrometer. Thus, by reading the spectral signature from the pattern, the spectral information of the photoluminescent nanoparticles was verified and thus a second-step verification was established. In this way, anticounterfeiting technology that combines ink formula, unclonable security pattern creation and two-level verification is developed.

    Effects of Long-Range Disorder and Electronic Interactions on the Optical Properties of Graphene Quantum Dots
    (American Physical Society, 2017) Altıntaş, Abdulmenaf; Çakmak, K. E.; Güçlü, Alev Devrim
    We theoretically investigate the effects of long-range disorder and electron-electron interactions on the optical properties of hexagonal armchair graphene quantum dots consisting of up to 10 806 atoms. The numerical calculations are performed using a combination of tight-binding, mean-field Hubbard, and configuration interaction methods. Imperfections in the graphene quantum dots are modeled as a long-range random potential landscape, giving rise to electron-hole puddles. We show that, when the electron-hole puddles are present, the tight-binding method gives a poor description of the low-energy absorption spectra compared to mean-field and configuration interaction calculation results. As the size of the graphene quantum dot is increased, the universal optical conductivity limit can be observed in the absorption spectrum. When disorder is present, the calculated absorption spectrum approaches the experimental results for isolated monolayers of graphene sheets.

    Enthalpy-Driven Selective Loading of Cdse0.75s0.25 Nanoalloys in Triblock Copolymer Polystyrene-B
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Aşkın, Görkem; Çeçen, Volkan; Ünlütürk, Seçil Sevim; Özçelik, Serdar; Demir, Mustafa Muammer
    CdSe0.75S0.25 nanoalloys were blended with asymmetric triblock copolymer of polystyrene-b-polyisoprene-b-polystyrene(PS-SIS) in tetrahydrofuran. The fraction of styrene block varies from 14 to 22% with respect to isoprene by mass. The morphology of the copolymer cast film experiences a phase change from cylinder to lamella. CdSe0.75S0.25 nanoalloys were prepared by two-phase method. The surface of the nanoalloys was capped by either oleic acid (OA) or n-tri-octylphosphonic acid (TOPO) in situ. The mean diameter of the alloyed particles is around 12 nm in both systems. The chemical nature of the nanoalloy surface was found to influence the dispersion of the particles over polymer volume. The size of the nanoalloy domains in PS is 50 nm, on average, consisting of approximately 0.7 wt% nanoalloys. However, the size of the nanoalloy domains is smaller when they are loaded into PS-SIS. The structure formation is predominantly determined by enthalpic compatibilization. Atomic force microscopy results suggest that the nanoalloys capped with TOPO sequester into PS-rich domains and enlarge the domain. On the other hand, the ones capped with OA prefer to locate in polyisoprene domains. The increase of particles over 1.0 wt% distorts the lamella structure.

    Theory of Optical Properties of Graphene Quantum Dots
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2016) Özfidan, Işıl; Güçlü, Alev Devrim; Korkusinski, Marek; Hawrylak, Pawel
    We present here a theory of the optical properties of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with tunable band gaps by lateral size confinement, from UV to THz. Starting from the Hartree-Fock ground state, we construct the correlated many-body ground and excited states of GQDs as a linear combination of a finite number of electron-hole pair excitations. We discuss the evolution of the band gap with size and its renormalization by self-energy and excitonic effects. We calculate and analyze the dipole moments of graphene quantum dots that possess a degenerate valence and conduction band edge, and construct a characteristic exciton and biexciton spectrum. We find an exciton band consisting of a pair of robust, spin singlet bright exciton states and a band of dark, spin singlet and spin triplet, exciton states at lower energies. We predict a characteristic band of biexciton levels at the band edge, discuss the Auger processes and identify a biexciton-exciton cascade. Our theoretical results are compared with experimental linear absorption and non-linear transient absorption spectra of colloidal GQDs. We next discuss the optical properties of triangular GQDs with zigzag edges whose magnetic moment can be controlled by gates. The control over the magnetic moment through carrier density manipulation results in optical spin blockade and gate tunable optical properties over a wide range of photon energies.
