Article Citation - WoS: 59Citation - Scopus: 64Interfacial Thermal Resistance Between the Graphene-Coated Copper and Liquid Water(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Pham, An T.; Barışık, Murat; Kim, BohungThe thermal coupling at water-solid interfaces is a key factor in controlling thermal resistance and the performance of nanoscale devices. This is especially important across the recently engineered nano-composite structures composed of a graphene-coated-metal surface. In this paper, a series of molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to investigate Kapitza length at the interface of liquid water and nano-composite surfaces of graphene-coated-Cu(1 1 1). We found that Kapitza length gradually increased and converged to the value measured on pure graphite surface with the increase of the number of graphene layers inserted on the Cu surface. Different than the earlier hypothesis on the "transparency of graphene," the Kapitza length at the interface of mono-layer graphene coated Cu and water was found to be 2.5 times larger than the value of bare Cu surface. This drastic change of thermal resistance with the additional of a single graphene is validated by the surface energy calculations indicating that the mono-layer graphene allows only ∼18% van der Waals energy of underneath Cu to transmit. We introduced an "overall interaction strength" value for the nano-composites based the quantitative contribution of pair interaction potentials of each material with water into the total surface energy in each case. Similar to earlier studies, results revealed that Kapitza length shows exponentially variation as a function of the estimated interaction strength of the nano-composite surfaces. The effect of Cu/graphene coupling on thermal behavior between the nano-composite with water was characterized. The Kapitza length was found to decrease significantly with increased Cu/graphene strength in the case of weak coupling, while this behavior becomes negligible with strong coupling of Cu and graphene.Article Citation - WoS: 91Citation - Scopus: 113Rheological and Dynamic-Mechanical Behavior of Carbon Nanotube/Vinyl Ester-Polyester Suspensions and Their Nanocomposites(Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Seyhan, Abdullah Tuğrul; Gojny, F. H.; Tanoğlu, Metin; Schulte, K.Rheological properties of vinyl ester-polyester resin suspensions containing various amounts (0.05, 0.1 and 0.3 wt.%) of multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) with and without amine functional groups (-NH2) were investigated by utilization of oscillatory rheometer with parallel plate geometry. Dispersion of corresponding carbon nanotubes within the resin blend was accomplished employing high shear mixing technique (3-roll milling). Based on the dynamic viscoelastic measurements, it was observed that at 0.3 wt.% of CNT loadings, storage modulus (G′) values of suspensions containing MWCNTs and MWCNT-NH2 exhibited frequency-independent pseudo solid like behavior especially at lower frequencies. Moreover, the loss modulus (G″) values of the resin suspensions with respect to frequency were observed to increase with an increase in contents of CNTs within the resin blend. In addition, steady shear viscosity measurements implied that at each given loading rate, the resin suspensions demonstrated shear thinning behavior regardless of amine functional groups, while the neat resin blend was almost the Newtonian fluid. Furthermore, dynamic mechanical behavior of the nanocomposites achieved by polymerizing the resin blend suspensions with MWCNTs and MWCNT-NH2 was investigated through dynamic mechanical thermal analyzer (DMTA). It was revealed that storage modulus (E′) and the loss modulus (E″) values of the resulting nanocomposites increased with regard to carbon nanotubes incorporated into the resin blend. In addition, at each given loading rate, nanocomposites containing MWCNT-NH2 possessed larger loss and storage modulus values as well as higher glass transition temperatures (Tg) as compared to those with MWCNTs. These findings were attributed to evidences for contribution of amine functional groups to chemical interactions at the interface between CNTs and the resin blend matrix. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies performed on the cured resin samples approved that the dispersion state of carbon nanotubes with and without amine functional groups within the matrix resin blend was adequate. This implies that 3-roll milling process described herein is very appropriate technique for blending of carbon nanotubes with a liquid thermoset resin to manufacture nanocomposites with enhanced final properties.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 8Highly Efficient Orange–red Electroluminescence From a Single Layer Meh-Ppv Hybrid Pled(Elsevier Ltd., 2012) Saygılı, Gamze; Ünal, Gülçin; Özçelik, Serdar; Varlıklı, CananIn this study, poly[2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene] end capped with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (MEH-PPV-POSS): cadmium sulfide selenide quantum dots (CdS0.75Se0.25 QDs) nanocomposites based OLEDs were fabricated. By the addition of CdS0.75Se0.25QDs into the polymer active layer, a considerable enhancement was observed in terms of hole and electron injection in devices. Additionally, the presence of QDs reduced the interchain interaction of polymer that resulted in narrower electroluminescence (EL) spectrum. The device structure of ITO/PEDOT: PSS/MEH-PPV-POSS: 25 wt% CdS0.75Se0.25/Ca (40 nm)/Al demonstrated the best performance with a brightness of 8672 cd/m 2 at 10 V, current efficiency of 2.5 cd/A at 8 V, and an EQE of 0.55% at 150 mA/cm2 .
