Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Amperometric Detection of Nh3 by Aromatic Sam-Modified Graphene(IEEE, 2023) Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Bayram, Abdullah; Aydın, Hasan; Can, Mustafa; Demiç, Şerafettin; Açıkbaş, Yaşar; Çelebi, CemAmmonia (NH3) is a toxic substance resulting in various acute and chronic effects on individuals. NH3 detection, monitoring methods, and detection tools are desperately needed. In this work, we improved the NH3 sensing capabilities of grapheme (GP) films deposited by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) by modifying aromatic self-assembled monolayer (SAM) molecules such as 5-[(3-methylphenyl) (phenyl) amino] isophthalic acid (MeIPA) and 5-(diphenyl)amino] isophthalic acid (PhIPA) on amperometric detection method. Morphological investigations of the films were carried out by optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Surface potential was characterized with Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM), and vibrational properties were characterized with Raman spectroscopy. MeIPA modification increased NH3 uptake by two times compared to unmodified GP. The results indicated that the SAM modification enhanced NH3 molecule adsorption and improved its periodic reversible and reproducible response using the amperometric detection system, indicating that SAM molecules might be a feasible probe for NH3. © 2001-2012 IEEE.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Synthesis and Characterization of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube: Cyto-Genotoxicity in Allium Cepa Root Tips and Molecular Docking Studies(Wiley, 2022) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; İstifli, Erman Salih; Açıkbaş, Yaser; Liman, Recep; Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Ciğerci, İbrahim HakkıHerein, single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were synthesized by the thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA). The results indicated that obtained nanotubes were SWCNTs with high crystallinity and their average diameter was 10.15 ± 3 nm. Allium cepa ana–telophase and comet assays on the root meristem were employed to evaluate the cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of SWCNTs by examining mitotic phases, mitotic index (MI), chromosomal aberrations (CAs), and DNA damage. A. cepa root tip cells were exposed to SWCNTs at concentrations of 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 μg/ml for 4 h. Distilled water and methyl methanesulfonate (MMS, 10 μg/ml) were used as the negative and positive control groups, respectively. It was observed that MIs decreased statistically significantly for all applied doses. Besides, CAs such as chromosome laggards, disturbed anaphase–telophase, stickiness and bridges and also DNA damage increased in the presence of SWCNTs in a concentration-dependent manner. In the molecular docking study, the SWCNT were found to be a strong DNA major groove binder showing an energetically very favorable binding free energy of −21.27 kcal/mol. Furthermore, the SWCNT interacted effectively with the nucleotides on both strands of DNA primarily via hydrophobic π and electrostatic interactions. As a result, cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of SWCNTs in A. cepa root meristematic cells which is a reliable system for assessment of nanoparticle toxicology were demonstrated in this study.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 6Anisotropic Etching of Cvd Grown Graphene for Ammonia Sensing(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Bayram, Abdullah; Aydın, Hasan; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Açıkbaş, Yaser; Peeters, François M.; Çelebi, CemBare chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown graphene (GRP) was anisotropically etched with various etching parameters. The morphological and structural characterizations were carried out by optical microscopy and the vibrational properties substrates were obtained by Raman spectroscopy. The ammonia adsorption and desorption behavior of graphene-based sensors were recorded via quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) measurements at room temperature. The etched samples for ambient NH3 exhibited nearly 35% improvement and showed high resistance to humidity molecules when compared to bare graphene. Besides exhibiting promising sensitivity to NH3 molecules, the etched graphene-based sensors were less affected by humidity. The experimental results were collaborated by Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations and it was shown that while water molecules fragmented into H and O, NH3 interacts weakly with EGPR2 sample which reveals the enhanced sensing ability of EGPR2. Apparently, it would be more suitable to use EGRP2 in sensing applications due to its sensitivity to NH3 molecules, its stability, and its resistance to H2O molecules in humid ambient.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 8Stable janus TaSe2 single-layers via surface functionalization(Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Kahraman, Zeynep; Başkurt, Mehmet; Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Chaves, A.; Şahin, HasanFirst-principles calculations are performed in order to investigate the formation of Janus structures of single-layer TaSe2. The structural optimizations and phonon band dispersions reveal that the formation and stability of hydrogenated (HTaSe2), fluorinated (FTaSe2), and the one-side hydrogenated and one-side fluorinated (Janus-HTaSe2F) single-layers are feasible in terms of their phonon band dispersions. It is shown that bare metallic single-layer TaSe2 can be turned into a semiconductor as only one of its surface is functionalized while it remains as a metal via its two surfaces functionalization. In addition, the semiconducting nature of single-layers HTaSe2 and FTaSe2 and the metallic behavior of Janus TaSe2 are found to be robust under applied uniaxal strains. Further analysis on piezoelectric properties of the predicted single-layers reveal the enhanced in-plane and out-of-plane piezoelectricity via formed Janus-HTaSe2F. Our study indicates that single-layer TaSe2 is a suitable host material for surface functionalization via fluorination and hydrogenation which exhibit distinctive electronic and vibrational properties. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 10Experimental and Computational Investigation of Graphene/Sams Schottky Diodes(Elsevier Ltd., 2018) Aydın, Hasan; Bacaksız, Cihan; Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Karakaya, Caner; Mermer, Ömer; Can, Mustafa; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Şahin, Hasan; Selamet, YusufWe have investigated the effect of two different self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on electrical characteristics of bilayer graphene (BLG)/n-Si Schottky diodes. Novel 4″bis(diphenylamino)-1, 1′:3″-terphenyl-5′ carboxylic acids (TPA) and 4,4-di-9H-carbazol-9-yl-1,1′:3′1′-terphenyl-5′ carboxylic acid (CAR) aromatic SAMs have been used to modify n-Si surfaces. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) results have been evaluated to verify the modification of n-Si surface. The current–voltage (I–V) characteristics of bare and SAMs modified devices show rectification behaviour verifying a Schottky junction at the interface. The ideality factors (n) from ln(I)–V dependences were determined as 2.13, 1.96 and 2.07 for BLG/n-Si, BLG/TPA/n-Si and BLG/CAR/n-Si Schottky diodes, respectively. In addition, Schottky barrier height (SBH) and series resistance (R s ) of SAMs modified diodes were decreased compared to bare diode due to the formation of a compatible interface between graphene and Si as well as π–π interaction between aromatic SAMs and graphene. The CAR-based device exhibits better diode characteristic compared to the TPA-based device. Computational simulations show that the BLG/CAR system exhibits smaller energy-level-differences than the BLG/TPA, which supports the experimental findings of a lower Schottky barrier and series resistance in BLG/CAR diode.Article Citation - WoS: 29Citation - Scopus: 31Electrical Properties of Sam-Modified Ito Surface Using Aromatic Small Molecules With Double Bond Carboxylic Acid Groups for Oled Applications(Elsevier Ltd., 2014) Can, Mustafa; Havare, Ali Kemal; Aydın, Hasan; Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Demir, Şerafettin; İçli, Sıddık; Okur, Salih5-[(3-Methylphenyl)(phenyl)amino]isophthalic acid (5-MePIFA) and 5-(diphenyl)amino]isophthalic acid (5-DPIFA) organic molecules were synthesized to form self-assembled monolayer on indium tin oxide (ITO) anode to enhance hole transport from ITO to organic hole transport layers such as TPD. The modified surface was characterized by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The change in the surface potential was measured by Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM). Our Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) measurements showed that the surface potentials increased more than 100 mV with reference to bare indium tin-oxide. The results show that the threshold voltage on OLEDs with modified ITO is lowered significantly compared to OLEDs with unmodified ITO. The hole mobility of TPD has been estimated using space-charge-limited current measurements (SCLC).Article Citation - WoS: 70Citation - Scopus: 76Humidity-Sensing Properties of a Zno Nanowire Film as Measured With a Qcm(Elsevier Ltd., 2011) Erol, Ayşe; Okur, Salih; Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Arıkan, M. ÇetinThe humidity-sensing properties of ZnO nanowires synthesized by carbothermal catalyst-free vapor solid (VS) technique were studied. The morphology and the crystal structure were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. The humidity adsorption and desorption kinetics of the synthesized ZnO nanowires were investigated via quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) measurements. The observed positive frequency shift of ZnO nanowires when loaded on the QCM crystal under varying relative humidity conditions can be explained in terms of visco-elastic variations in their mechanical stiffness.
