    In this study, the distribution of plasma-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes in polyacrylonitrile nanocomposite fibers produced by wet spinning method using different surfactants (Triton-X and sodium dodecyl sulfate) was investigated. Firstly, we produced CNTs by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique. Secondly, low-pressure plasma functionalization of CNTs was realized. Finally, nanocomposite polyacrylonitrile fibers doped by CNTs were obtained using wet spinning technique. Properties of produced carbon nanotubes, functionalized carbon nanotubes and nanocomposite polyacrylonitrile fibers were examined by the analyses of chemical composition, surface structure, structural and mechanical properties.

    Enhanced Optoelectronic Properties of Magnetron Sputtered Ito/Ag Multilayers by Electro-Annealing
    (AVS, 2022) Uyanık, Zemzem; Türkoğlu, Fulya; Köseoğlu, Hasan; Ekmekçioğlu, Merve; Ata, Bengü; Demirhan, Yasemin; Özdemir, Mehtap; Aygün, Gülnur; Özyüzer, Lütfi
    Indium tin oxide/silver/indium tin oxide (ITO/Ag/ITO) multilayers have attracted much attention to fulfill the growing need for high-performance transparent conducting oxide electrodes. To make these transparent multilayers work better, electro-annealing, which is a method of self-heating by electric current, can be effective. Moreover, the effect of current on ITO/Ag/ITO multilayers should be investigated to make sure that electronic devices will be reliable over their lifetime. In this study, ITO/Ag/ITO multilayer electrodes with varying Ag thicknesses were grown by DC magnetron sputtering at room temperature. Structural, optical, and electrical properties of these multilayers were investigated before and after electro-annealing. Measurement results revealed that improved optical transmittance and sheet resistance can be obtained by the optimization of Ag thickness for the as-grown ITO/Ag/ITO layers. The highest figure of merit (FoM) value of 17.37 × 10−3 Ω−1 with optical transmittance of 85.15% in the visible region and sheet resistance of 11.54 Ω/□ was obtained for the Ag thickness of 16.5 nm for as-grown samples. The electro-annealing of as-grown ITO/Ag/ITO multilayers led to improved optical behavior of the multilayer structure over a wide spectral range, especially in the near-infrared range. Electro-annealing also provided an improvement in the crystallinity and sheet resistance of the electrodes. The improvement of the electrical and optical properties of the structure enabled a FoM of 23.07 × 10−3 Ω−1 with the optical transmittance of 86.80% in the visible region and sheet resistance of 10.52 Ω/□. The findings of this work provide proper knowledge of the properties of ITO/Ag/ITO multilayers under electrical current and suggest that the overall performance of the multilayers can be improved by the electro-annealing process.

    Investigation of In-Gap Field Enhancement at Terahertz Frequencies for a Metasurface Enhanced Sensor
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2021) Tugay, Halime; Altan, Hakan; Demirhan, Yasemin; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Sabah, Cumali
    The arrangements of subwavelength inclusions in a metasurface can serve as an effective absorber for the terahertz region. When such an absorber is combined with a unique material, the absorption can induce effects that can lead to a change in the materials electrical properties. Vanadium dioxide shows a passive and reversible change from monoclinic insulator phase to metallic tetragonal rutile structure by using external stimuli such as temperature (340K), photo excitation, electric field, mechanical strain or magnetic field [1,2]. Upon absorption of the THz radiation, the high electric fields that are generated inside the gaps of the metasurface can serve as trigger points, as was shown previously using kV strength THz E-fields.

    Surface Free Energy Analysis of Ito/Au Multilayer Thin Films on Polycarbonate Substrate by Apparent Contact Angle Measurements
    (Elsevier, 2020) Özbay, Salih; Erdoğan, Nursev; Erden, Fuat; Ekmekçioğlu, Merve; Özdemir, Mehtap; Aygün, Gülnur; Özyüzer, Lütfi
    A detailed surface free energy (SFE) knowledge of transparent conducing oxide (TCO)/metal/TCO electrodes is necessary for their applications related to surface wettability. However, SFE analysis of these surfaces has not been performed systematically previously. In this study, ITO and ITO/Au/ITO multilayer thin films were coated onto O-2 plasma treated polycarbonate (PC) substrates by magnetron sputtering. The wettability characteristics of untreated PC, O-2 plasma treated PC, ITO, Au interlayer, and ITO/Au/ITO multilayer thin films were evaluated by apparent contact angle measurements of nine different test liquids having various surface tensions. Following this, Lifshitz-van der Waals, acidic, basic, dispersive, and polar components of SFE were calculated using acidbase, geometric and harmonic mean approaches. In the present study, in which the significance of calculation methods and selected liquid pairs on SFE parameters were investigated, the effect of Au interlayer presence on SFE parameters were also evaluated simultaneously. The results showed that the total SFE values of ITO/Au/ITO multilayer thin films were found to be higher than that of ITO surface. The reasons behind this difference were discussed in terms of SFE components obtained using various liquid pairs by different methods. The results were also supported with XRD, XPS, AFM, and TEM analysis.

    Spin Polarized Tunneling in Large Area Mesas of Superconducting Bi 2sr2cacu2o8+δ for the Generation of the Thz Waves
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Türkoğlu, Fulya; Şimşek, Yılmaz; Köseoğlu, Hasan; Demirhan, Yasemin; Meriç Polster, Zeynep; Özyüzer, Lütfi
    Rectangular intrinsic Josephson junction mesa structures of superconducting Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta (Bi2212) can be used as a source of continuous, coherent and polarized terahertz (THz) radiation. THz emitting mesas are below a certain underdoped level of Bi2212. They have small Josephson critical current in contrast to optimally doped and overdoped Bi2212. We deposited Au/Co/Au multilayer top of mesa and obtained small critical current from mesas fabricated by as-grown Bi2212 single crystals due to injection of spin polarized current. The spin injection eliminates adjustment of doping level for successful THz emission.

    Reactive Ion Beam Etching of Superconducting Bi2212 by Ta/Pr and Pr'/ta/pr Masks for the Generation of Thz Waves
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2009) Köseoğlu, Hasan; Türkoğlu, Fulya; Demirhan, Yasemin; Meriç Polster, Zeynep; Özyüzer, Lütfi
    Generation of powerful THz radiation from intrinsic Josephson Junctions (Ills) of Bi(2)Sr(2)CaCu(2)O(8+delta) (Bi2212) may require mesas with large lateral dimension. However, there are difficulties in fabrication of perfect rectangular mesas. Mesa lateral angles should be close to 90 degrees to obtain IJJs with same planar dimensions for synchronization of IJJs. Since thick photoresist (PR) layer shades the lateral dimension of mesa during ion beam etching, we patterned Ta/PR and PR'/Ta/PR masks on Bi2212 and used selective ion etching to overcome this problem. The reactive ion beam etchings have done with ion beam of Ar, N(2) and O(2) and we have obtained mesas about 1 mu m with lateral angle of approximately 50 to 75 degrees which is better than the mesas fabricated with single layer mask.

    Terahertz Transmission Through Patterened Vanadium Oxide Thin Films on Dielectric Substrates
    (SCITEPRESS, 2017) Akkaya, M.; Demirhan, Yasemin; Yüce, Hürriyet; Aygün, Gülnur; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Sabah, Cumali; Altan, Hakan
    Patterned and unpatterned films of vanadium oxide grown on dielectric substrates such as fused silica and sapphire were grown and analysed by varying the temperature using terahertz time domain spectroscopy. After investigating the critical transition temperature near 340K, a well-known cross-shaped pattern was studied to observe any resonances upon transmission. Due to the poor conductivity of the films the frequency selective nature of the structure was not observed, however an etalon effect could be seen in the sapphire substrate as opposed to the fused silica substrate above the critical temperature. Dependence of the refractive index difference between substrates upon transmission of the THz pulse is likely in explaining this observed difference.

    The Controllable Deposition of Large Area Roll-To Sputtered Ito Thin Films for Photovoltaic Applications
    (Elsevier, 2020) Demirhan, Yasemin; Köseoğlu, Hasan; Türkoğlu, Fulya; Uyanık, Zemzem; Özdemir, Mehtap; Aygün, Gülnur; Özyüzer, Lütfi
    In the present study, using a large area roll-to-roll DC magnetron sputtering system deposition of ITO thin films on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates were achieved. In order to investigate the effect of growth conditions on the film properties all through the deposition process, optical emission spectroscopy (OES) analysis have been accomplished in a governable way. The consequences of Oxygen partial pressure and film thickness on electrical, and optical properties of the films were determined. It was shown that the intensity of optical emission peaks are subjected to the discharge power and as well as the O-2/Ar flow ratio. Large area, uniform ITO films with relatively high transparency and low electrical resistivity (R(2)(<)50 Omega/sqr) were succesfully deposited on PET substrates. The significance of both the figure of merit (FOM) and the optical band gap values on the performance of different TCO thin films were addressed. In this work, the obtained results suggest that the overall performance is sufficient to implement the ITO films in photovoltaic and OLED applications. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Ito/Au Multilayer Thin Films on Transparent Polycarbonate With Enhanced Emi Shielding Properties
    (Elsevier, 2020) Erdoğan, Nursev; Erden, Fuat; Astarlıoğlu, A. Taner; Özdemir, Mehtap; Özbay, Salih; Aygün, Gülnur; Özyüzer, Lütfi
    ITO/Au/ITO multilayer thin films were deposited onto polycarbonate substrate via magnetron sputtering technique without intentional heating. The deposition times of both ITO and Au layers were studied to optimize the overall transparency and conductivity. As-prepared thin films were characterized using X-ray diffraction analysis, secondary ion mass spectroscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and physical property measurement system. The optical measurement results revealed that the transmittance of the films were enhanced by increasing the gold deposition time up to 15 s. Beyond this point, further increasing the duration caused a decrease in optical transmittance. Upon optimization of the Au deposition time, the deposition duration of ITO layers was also studied to increase electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE). Maximum EMI SE in this work was measured as 26.8 dB, yielding 99.8% power attenuation, which was verified by simulation results.

    A Comprehensive Study of Molybdenum Boats Behavior During Service Life for Continuous Thermal Evaporation Technique, Used in Thin Film Technology
    (Elsevier, 2020) Rouhi, Sina; Martinez-Medina, Jose Enrique; Özdemir, Mehtap; Ertuğrul, Mehmet; Aygün, Gülnur; Özyüzer, Lütfi
    The aim of this study is to calculate the optimum lifetime of Molybdenum (Mo) thermal evaporation boats for Copper (Cu) filling in thin film technologies. Three types of Mo boats with thicknesses of 0.2, 0.3 and 0.5 mm were used during the experiments under the high vacuum condition about 6.0 x 10(-6) Torr. The behavior of each boat was investigated by focusing on the total amount of evaporation material, operational time and applied power. Prior to the deposition process, material was loaded on the evaporation boat by two methods. In the first method, Cu wire was cut into 1 cm long, then every boat was filled with this amount of Cu material. The second alternative feeding method is to use a wire-feeder step motor, which refills boat with Cu wire during evaporation process. The latter one is very useful for continuous deposition process since there is no need to break the vacuum state. In both methods, however, the number of failures during operations increases after a series of experiments have been taken place because of boat aging. The results of failures have been analyzed by various methods, and it has been observed that thinner boats showed better stability for long time operation by continuous feeding technique.
