    Photocatalytic Activity of Dye-Sensitized and Non-Sensitized Go-Tio2 Nanocomposites Under Simulated and Direct Sunlight
    (Wiley-Blackwell, 2022) İlhan, Hatice; Durmaz Çaycı, Gamze Belkis; Aksoy, Erkan; Diker, Halide; Varlıklı, Canan
    Graphene oxide (GO), amine-modified graphene oxide (mGO), and N-TiO2 composites were synthesized by low-temperature hydrothermal method and characterized by using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, FTIR, and BET analysis techniques. The films of synthesized TiO2, mGO:TiO2, N-TiO2, GO:TiO2, GO:N-TiO2, and commercially available P25 were prepared by doctor blade method. These films and their perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxy tetrabutylester (PTE)-sensitized forms were employed as photocatalysts for the photodegradation of rhodamine-B (RhB) under Xe lamp and direct sunlight irradiations. Independent from the irradiation source, the photocatalytic order of the non-sensitized films were GO:N-TiO2 > GO:TiO2 > N-TiO2 > mGO:TiO2 > TiO2 > P25, but seven and 15 folds of increments were detected under direct sunlight irradiation. PTE-sensitized catalyst films exhibited more than two folds of increase in the photocatalytic rate constants compared to their non-sensitized counterparts under Xe lamp irradiation. Under direct sunlight irradiation no matter which photocatalyst was used, the photocatalytic activity of these films was enhanced seven folds. Reusability tests revealed no significant changes in the photocatalytic rate constants obtained with both the non-sensitized and sensitized films.

    Silylethynyl substitution for preventing aggregate formation in perylene diimides
    (American Chemical Society, 2021) Aksoy, Erkan; Danos, Andrew; Li, Chunyong; Monkman, Andrew P.; Varlıklı, Canan
    Ethynylene-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.

    1-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, Serdar
    Impurities 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.

    Dispersion Stability of Amine Modified Graphene Oxides and Their Utilization in Solution Processed Blue Oled
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Diker, Halide; Bozkurt, Hakan; Varlıklı, Canan
    Graphene oxide (GO) was modified with amine derivatives which contain short (SACA) and long (LACA) alkyl chains. SACAs were n-propylamine, dipropylamine, propanolamine and LACAs were 2-ethylhexylamine, di-hexylamine, dioctylamine, and 1,12-diaminododecane and modified GOs (mGOs) were named as nPRYLA-GO, DPRYLA-GO, PRPOHA-GO, 2EHA-GO, DHA-GO, DOA-GO, and DADOD-GO, respectively. Amine modification resulted in approximately 2-folds of decrement in d-spacing of GO (8.36 angstrom). The C:O ratio, N% and d-spacing values were increased as the alkyl chain length of amine source increased. Except for PRPOHA-GO, all of the mGOs were thermally stable until 100 degrees C. All mGOs were dispersed in dimethylformamide (DMF), ethylene glycol (EG) and isopropyl alcohol (iPA). Regardless of their structural differences, all of the mGOs formed stable dispersions in DMF, whereas SACA-mGOs and LACA-mGOs were compatible with EG and iPA, respectively. DMF, EG and iPA dispersions of DOA-GO, 2EHA-GO, nPRYLA-GO and PRPOHA-GO were doped in Al4083 and prepared composites were utilized as hole transport layer in solution processed blue OLEDs. Ground state energy levels of Al4083:DOA-GO, Al4083:EG, Al4083:PRPOHA-GO, Al4083:2EHA-GO and Al4083:nPRYLA-GO extracted from their X-ray photoelectron spectra were 0.49 eV, 0.67 eV, 0.91 eV, 0.98 eV and 1.00 eV below the work function of ITO, respectively. Among all Al4083:mGOs, the best device performance was obtained with the device that contains Al4083:DOA-GO (in EG), which presented 1.6, 1.7 and 1.5 fold enhancements in current, power and external quantum efficiencies, respectively, compared to those of Al4083:EG based device.

    Reducing the Efficiency Roll Off and Applied Potential-Induced Color Shifts in Cdse@zns/Zns-based Light-Emitting Diodes
    (American Chemical Society, 2020) Özgüler, Şahika; Diker, Halide; Ünlütürk, Seçil Sevim; Özçelik, Serdar; Varlıklı, Canan
    Green light-emitting CdSe@ZnS/ZnS (QD) nano-particles were synthesized; the photophysical and morphological properties of their films, which were prepared by spin coating from six different concentrations, corresponding to absorbance values of 0.6, 1.1, 1.6, 2.1, 2.8, and 4.0, were determined. Increasing the absorbance value from 0.6 to 4.0 did not change the photophysical properties of QD films to a large extent, whereas it resulted in an increment in QD film thickness from 20 to 110 nm. The films were utilized as an emissive layer in QD light-emitting diodes with poly(9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK), PVK:2-(4-biphenyllyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (PBD), and PVK:1,3-bis[(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazolyl]-phenylene (OXD-7) hole-transport layers (HTLs). The presence of PBD or OXD-7 in PVK reduced the efficiency values but played a positive role in the color purity and efficiency roll off. The maximum color temperature and electroluminescence wavelength shifts obtained with applied potential were 109, 50, and 50 K and 11, 5, and 5 nm for pure-PVK, PVK:PBD, and PVK:OXD-7-based devices, respectively. Hole mobility, capacitance (at 10(3) Hz), and charge-transfer efficiency values were 9.0 x 10(-7), 6.8 x 10(-7), and 4.2 x 10(-7) cm(2) V s(-1), 1.7, 1, and 1 nF, and 6.90%, 15.50%, and 16.10% for pure-PVK, PVK:PBD, and PVK:OXD-7-based devices, respectively. Enhanced color purity and lowered efficiency roll off obtained with PVK:PBD and PVK:OXD-7 HTLs were attributed to decreased capacitance, increased charge-transfer efficiency, and reduced Joule heating.

    Navigating Cie Space for Efficient Tadf Downconversion Woleds
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Aksoy, Erkan; Danos, Andrew; Varlıklı, Canan; Monkman, Andrew P.
    High efficiency orange and green emitting perylene dyes have been synthesized and dispersed in an inert polymer host to form an optical downconversion layer. To avoid dye aggregation and allow controlled colour tuning, this layer was deposited in multiple low-concentration spin-coating steps, directly on top of a high performance blue thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) organic light emitting diode (OLED). The orange downconversion layer partially absorbs the blue OLED emission, while emitting a complementary orange to give white light. However, as energy transfer between the TADF and perylene downconverter is based on emission and reabsorption, absorptive filtering of the blue OLED emission band necessitates the inclusion of an additional green-emitting perylene top-layer to achieve optimal white balance. The optimised white OLED fabricated in this way displayed excellent white colour balance (CIE x, y; 0.33, 0.33) with perfect stability, good colour rendering (CRI 80), and a high maximum efficiency (maximum EQE 17.2%) with minimal losses compared to the base blue OLED. This approach is widely applicable for generating white emission from any kind of blue OLED, and is compatible with a wide range of downconverting dyes and host materials.

    Contribution of O-2 Plasma Treatment and Amine Modified Gos on Film Properties of Conductive Pedot:pss: Application in Indium Tin Oxide Free Solution Processed Blue Oled
    (Elsevier, 2019) Diker, Halide; Yeşil, Fatih; Varlıklı, Canan
    Primary (n-propyl amine, n-PRYLA), secondary (dipropyl amine, DPRYLA) and alcohol (propanol amine, PRPOHA) amine derivatives were used as amine sources in graphene oxide (GO) modification and obtained samples were named as nPRYLA-GO, DPRYLA-GO and PRPOHA-GO, respectively. Modified graphene oxide (mGO) derivatives were doped in poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PH1000) and O-2 plasma treatment (70W, 3 min) was applied on the spin casted films. PH1000:mGO films presented high optical transparency values (> 90%) and low resistivity (177-183 Q/sq). The roughness values were increased especially when the hydrophobic alkyl chain containing DPRYLA-GO and nPRYLA-GO were doped in PH1000. Prepared films were utilized as anode in solution processed blue organic light emitting diode. PH1000:PRPOHA-GO anode presented more than 30 nm of decrement in full with at half maximum and 1.6, 1.5 and 1.9 fold enhancements in current, power and external quantum efficiency values, compared to those of ITO anode, respectively.
