Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Determination of Electrostatic Potential Distribution by Atomic Force Microscopy (afm) on Model Silica and Alumina Surfaces in Aqueous Electrolyte Solutions(Elsevier Ltd., 2014) Yelken Özek, Gülnihal; Polat, MehmetAFM was employed as a physicochemical probe to determine the electrostatic potential distribution quantitatively on selected ideal oxide surfaces (quartz 0 0 0 1 and sapphire 0 0 0 1) in aqueous media. The force of interaction between a silicon nitride tip and the oxide surface was measured at a given point under well-defined solution conditions. Relevant theories were used to isolate the electrostatic component from the total force of interaction which was then employed to estimate the surface potential at that point. Repeating the procedure on selected locations generated a potential map of the surface. Comparison of these potentials with those obtained from independent electrokinetic measurements confirmed the validity of the approach. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.

The BPTG was adsorbed on a gold coated Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) substrate with a thickness of 376nm. The morphology of the film was characterized using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). QCM was used to investigate the humidity sensing properties of the BPTG film. The response of the humidity sensor was explained using the Langmuir model. The average values of adsorption and desorption rates between 11% RH (relative humidity) and 97% RH were calculated as 2482.5M -1s -1 and 0.02s -1, respectively. The equilibrium constant and average Gibbs Free Energy of humidity adsorption and desorption cycles were obtained as 133,000 and -11.8kJ/mol, respectively. © 2011 Elsevier Inc..Article Citation - WoS: 82Citation - Scopus: 92Metal Ion Release From Nitrogen Ion Implanted Cocrmo Orthopedic Implant Material(Elsevier Ltd., 2006) Öztürk, Orhan; Türkan, Uğur; Eroğlu, Ahmet EminCoCrMo alloys are used as orthopedic implant materials because of their excellent mechanical and corrosion properties. However, when placed in vivo, these alloys release Co, Cr, Mo ions to host tissues, which may give rise to significant health concerns over time. Nitrogen ion implantation can be used to form protective layers on the surface of CoCrMo orthopedic alloys by modifying the near surface layers of these materials. In this study, medical grade CoCrMo alloy (IS0 5832-12) was ion implanted with 60 keV nitrogen ions to a high dose of 1.9 × 10 18 ions/cm 2 at substrate temperatures of 100, 200 and 400 °C. The N implanted layer microstructures, implanted layer phases, and thicknesses were studied by a combination of Bragg-Brentano (θ/2θ) and grazing incidence (Seeman-Bohlin) X-ray diffraction (XRD and GIXRD) and cross-sectional scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used for roughness analysis of N implanted as well as as-polished surfaces. Static immersion tests were performed to investigate metal ion release into simulated body fluid (SBF) by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). XRD and SEM analyses indicated that the N implanted layers were ∼ 150-450 nm thick and composed of the (Co,Cr,Mo) 2+xN nitride phase and a high N concentration Co-based FCC phase, γ N depending on the substrate temperature. ETAAS analysis results showed that in vitro exposure of the N implanted surfaces resulted in higher levels of cobalt ion release into the simulated body fluid compared to the untreated, polished alloy. The higher Co release from the N implanted specimens is attributed to the nature of the implanted layer phases as well as to the rougher surfaces associated with the N implanted specimens compared to the relatively smooth surface of the untreated material. SEM analysis of N implanted and untreated specimens after immersion tests clearly indicated calcium phosphate formation on the as-polished CoCrMo alloy, indicating a degree of bioactivity of the untreated metal surface which is absent in the N implanted specimens.Article Citation - WoS: 2Dimensions of Polystyrene Particles Deposited on Mica From Dilute Cyclohexane Solution at Different Temperatures(American Chemical Society, 2002) Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Erman, BurakUsing atomic force microscopy, the height, diameter, and volume of polystyrene particles deposited on mica from dilute cyclohexane solution at different temperatures are determined. Dimensions exhibit a strong temperature dependence. The heights of the deposited particles are only a few atomic diameters, the major dimension being parallel to the mica surface. The number of single polystyrene molecules in a deposited particle cannot be determined directly by atomic force microscopy. However, the maximum number of molecules that may be present in a particle may be estimated. Below 35 °C, the particles possibly consist of single collapsed molecules. This number increases with temperature and becomes as large as about 30 molecules per particle at 80 °C. The volume occupied by a single chain in solvent is calculated as a function of temperature and compared with observed volumes of dry particles on mica. A linear relationship is observed between single chain volumes in solvent and corresponding particle volumes on mica. On the average, the volume of a single chain in solution is 10 times the volume of a dry particle at the corresponding temperature. Fluctuations of chain volumes that are dominant in solution are also present in the volumes of particles deposited and dried on mica.
