    Light-Induced Synthesis of Single-Crystalline Gold Microplates in an Open System
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2023) Akkuş, Betül; Mert Balcı, Fadime
    Bottom-up synthesis of large single-crystalline gold microplates is of key importance to catalysis, nanophotonics, bioengineering, and plasmonics. However, easy, low-cost, room-temperature, and high-yield synthesis of large gold microplates with several micrometers in lateral size and a few tens of nanometers in thickness by using photochemical synthesis in an open system is still challenging. We herein report on an easy and cost-effective photochemical synthesis of single-crystalline gold microplates with lateral sizes up to around 40 mu m and tens of nanometers in thickness in a few hours of reaction time in an open system containing a lyotropic liquid crystal, which is formed by self-assembly of 10-lauryl ether in a strong acid, sulfuric acid, along with water. We have found that by changing the reaction parameters, such as the reaction time, the concentration of gold ions in the liquid crystal, etc., the thickness and size of the microplates can be easily controlled. Most importantly, the liquid crystalline phase is completely preserved after completion of the photochemical reaction. The microplates can be easily isolated and transferred to different media such as alcohol and water for further studies, or they can be immediately used on a substrate after completion of the reaction. The results obtained in this study will allow us to understand the growth mechanism of gold microplates in open systems, and they will find applications in a variety of critical areas, such as plasmonics, nanophotonics, and catalysis.

    Effect of Oxidation on Mechanical Properties of Copper Nanowire: a Reaxff (reactive Force Field) Molecular Dynamics Study
    (Aip Publishing, 2023) Aral, Gürcan; Islam, Md Mahbubul
    Nanostructures with high surface area to volume ratio, such as oxidized and coated Cu nanowires (NWs), exhibit unique mechanical properties due to their size and surface effects. Understanding the complex oxidation process of Cu NWs at nanoscale and quantifying its resulting effects on mechanical behavior and properties are significantly essential for effective usage of Cu NW devices in a wide range of applications in nanoelectronics. Here, we perform molecular dynamics simulations using ReaxFF (reactive force field) to investigate the oxidation process and mechanisms of [001]-oriented cylindrical Cu NWs and its contribution on the mechanical deformation behavior and material properties as a function of NW sizes. The relatively thin oxide CuxOy layer is formed on the surface of Cu NWs in an O-2 environment, creating a core/shell (Cu/CuxOy) NW structure that played a key role in governing the overall tensile mechanical deformation behavior and properties of Cu NW. The formation of oxide layer effects, including the resulting interface and defects, leads to a reduction in the initial dislocation nucleation barrier, which facilitates the onset of plasticity and stress relaxation, ultimately resulting in a negative impact on the tensile strength, Young's modulus, yield stress and strain, and flow stress when compared to pristine counterparts. It is worth noting that the tensile mechanical response and properties of the Cu NWs are highly dependent on the pre-existing oxide shell layer associated with the size of NW, determining the overall mechanical performance and properties of Cu NWs.

    Cosmic Light Vs Cosmic Classic Manual: Case Studies in Functional Size Measurement
    (CEUR Workshop Proceedings, 2020) Hacaloğlu, Tuna; Ünlü, Hüseyin; Demirörs, Onur; Abran, Alain
    Functional size has been used in software engineering for more than 40 years. When measured early in the software development life cycle, it can serve as direct input for effort estimation. The COSMIC Functional Size Measurement (FSM) method developed by the Common Software Measurement Consortium (COSMIC) is the latest ISO-compliant functional sizing method. A streamlined manual titled ''Software Development Velocity with COSMIC Function Points'' summarizes the measurement process and shortens the learning time. The aim of this study is to compare the classic COSMIC FSM manual and this new “light” manual in terms of accuracy of the resulting FSM applied to case studies. The findings show that use of the light manual results in accurate measurement. In addition, there were no significant time differences between the two. With respect to the variations in COSMIC Function Points (CFP) values in the two case studies, they three causes were identified: the Object of Interest (OOI) concept and corresponding data groups, details regarding Functional Process Independence, and Error/Confirmation messages related to the scope of the information included in the manuals.
