Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 18Improvement of Photophysical Properties of Cspbbr3 and Mn2+:cspb(br,cl)(3) Perovskite Nanocrystals by Sr2+ Doping for White Light-Emitting Diodes(American Chemical Society, 2022) Yüce, Hürriyet; Mandal, Mukunda; Yalçınkaya, Yenal; Andrienko, Denis; Demir, Mustafa MuammerAll-inorganic metal halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) having the general formula ABX(3), where A is a monovalent cation, for example, Cs+, B is a divalent cation, typically Pb2+, and X is Cl-, Br-, I-, or their binary mixture, show potential in optoelectronic devices. In this work, we explore the effect of B-site doping on the optoelectronic properties of CsPbX3 NCs (X = Br, Cl). First, the Pb2+ ions in the pristine CsPbBr3 NC are partially substituted by Mn2+ ions. The alkaline earth metal strontium is then doped on both pristine and the Mn2+-substituted NCs. We found that a small percentage of Sr2+ doping remarkably improves the photoluminescence quantum yield of CsPbBr3 and Mn2+-state emission in Mn2+:CsPb(Br,Cl)(3) NCs. Perovskite NC film/ poly(methyl methacrylate) composites with all four NC variants were used in a white light-emitting diode (WLED), where Sr2+ doping increased the luminous efficiency of the WLED by similar to 4.7%. We attribute this performance enhancement to a reduced defect density and an attenuated microstrain in the local NC structure.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 9Cesium Manganese Chloride: Stable Lead-Free Perovskite From Bulk To Single Layer(Elsevier, 2021) Sözen, Yiğit; Özen, Sercan; Şahin, HasanMotivated by the recent advances in perovskite-based solar cells, here we investigate stability, electronic properties and vibrational characteristics of lead-free perovskite, CsMnCl3, and its low dimensional forms by means of first-principles calculations. Structural optimizations reveal that, regardless of whether it is bulk or ultra-thin single layer cubic perovskite structure, CsMnCl3 crystal exhibit robust antiferromagnetism in its ground state due to oppositely aligned magnetic moments of Mn atoms. In addition to total energy calculations, phonon band dispersions indicate that CsMnCl3 structure sustains its dynamical stability down to its thinnest single layer crystal structures. The calculated Raman spectrums state that while the first-order Raman scattering is forbidden for bulk CsMnCl3 due to the cubic symmetry; dimensional-reduction-driven symmetry breaking leads to emergence of experimentally-observable distinctive Raman active modes in bilayer and single-layer crystal structures. Moreover, the electronic band dispersions reveal that from its bulk to ultra-thin single layer structures CsMnCl3 crystals are robust antiferromagnetic insulators. Multiple valid features like controllable dimensionality, robust antiferromagnetism and wide electronic band gap make cubic CsMnCl3 crystal as a potential candidate for nano-scale optoelectronic applications.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 5Plasmon-Induced Spectral Tunability of Perovskite Nanowires(Elsevier, 2021) Gökbulut, Belkıs; Topçu, Gökhan; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; İnci, Mehmet NaciIn this paper, plasmon-assisted spectral tunability in random media, composed of Perovskite (CsPbBr3) nanowires surrounded by Au nanoparticle clusters in polystyrene matrix, is achieved. The interaction between the surface plasmons and the quantum sources is observed to generate photoluminescence from the higher excited state energy levels of the excited semiconductor nanowires, which results in a blueshifted fluorescence emission of 50 nm. The localized surface plasmon properties are also determined to be tuned by plasmonic pumping of the quantum sources at different resonant frequencies. Thus, the first observation of the tunable blueshifted fluorescence emission of the semiconductor nanocrystals surrounded by plasmonic nanoparticle aggregates is achieved. The dramatic changes in the spectral profiles of the fluorescent nanowires are attributed to be due to the fast dynamics surface enhanced fluorescence mechanism.Article Citation - WoS: 89Citation - Scopus: 85Cspbbr3 Perovskites: Theoretical and Experimental Investigation on Water-Assisted Transition From Nanowire Formation To Degradation(American Physical Society, 2018) Akbalı, Barış; Topçu, Gökhan; Güner, Tuğrul; Özcan, Mehmet; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Şahin, HasanRecent advances in colloidal synthesis methods have led to an increased research focus on halide perovskites. Due to the highly ionic crystal structure of perovskite materials, a stability issue pops up, especially against polar solvents such as water. In this study, we investigate water-driven structural evolution of CsPbBr3 by performing experiments and state-of-the-art first-principles calculations. It is seen that while an optical image shows the gradual degradation of the yellowish CsPbBr3 structure under daylight, UV illumination reveals that the degradation of crystals takes place in two steps: transition from a blue-emitting to green-emitting structure and and then a transition from a green-emitting phase to complete degradation. We found that as-synthesized CsPbBr3 nanowires (NWs) emit blue light under a 254 nm UV source. Before the degradation, first, CsPbBr3 NWs undergo a water-driven structural transition to form large bundles. It is also seen that formation of such bundles provides longer-term environmental stability. In addition theoretical calculations revealed the strength of the interaction of water molecules with ligands and surfaces of CsPbBr3 and provide an atomistic-level explanation to a transition from ligand-covered NWs to bundle formation. Further interaction of green-light-emitting bundles with water causes complete degradation of CsPbBr3 and the photoluminescence signal is entirely quenched. Moreover, Raman and x-ray-diffraction measurements revealed that completely degraded regions are decomposed to PbBr2 and CsBr precursors. We believe that the findings of this study may provide further insight into the degradation mechanism of CsPbBr3 perovskite by water.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 12Orthorhombic Cspbi3 Perovskites: Thickness-Dependent Structural, Optical and Vibrational Properties(Elsevier, 2020) Özen, Sercan; İyikanat, Fadıl; Özcan, Mehmet; Tekneci, Gülsüm Efsun; Eren, İsmail; Sözen, Yiğit; Şahin, HasanCesium lead halide perovskites have been subject to intense investigation, mostly because of their potential to be used in optoelectronic device applications. However, regarding the need for nanoscale materials in forthcoming nanotechnology applications, understanding of how the characteristic properties of these perovskite crystals are modified through dimensional crossover is essential. In this study, thickness-dependence of the structural, electronic and vibrational properties of orthorhombic CsPbI3, which is one of the most stable phase at room temperature, is investigated by means of state-of-the-art first-principles calculations. Our results show that (i) bilayers and monolayers of CsPbI3 can be stabilized in orthorhombic crystal symmetry, (ii) among; the possible ultra-thin perovskites only structures with CsI-terminated surface are dynamically stable (iii) electronic band gap increases with decrease in perovskite thickness due to quantum size effect and (iv) reflectivity and transmissivity of the orthorhombic CsPbI3 can be tuned by varying the thickness that modifies the electron confinement.

It is found that while Cs atoms have no effect on the electronic structure, their presence is essential for the formation of stable CsPb2Br5 crystals. The calculated vibrational spectra of the crystal reveal that not only the bulk form but also the single-layer forms of CsPb2Br5 are dynamically stable. Predicted single-layer forms can exhibit either semiconducting or metallic character. Moreover, the modification of the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of single-layer CsPb2Br5 upon formation of vacancy defects is investigated. It is found that the formation of Br vacancy (i) has the lowest formation energy, (ii) significantly changes the electronic structure, and (iii) leads to ferromagnetic ground state in the single-layer CsPb2Br5. However, the formation of Pb and Cs vacancies leads to p-type doping of the single-layer structure. Results reported herein reveal that the single-layer CsPb2Br5 crystal is a novel stable perovskite with enhanced functionality and a promising candidate for nanodevice applications.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 23Adsorption of Anionic Polyelectrolyte and Comb Polymers Onto Lead Magnesium Niobate(Elsevier Ltd., 2008) Şakar-Deliormanlı, Aylin; Çelik, Erdal; Polat, MehmetThis paper presents the results concerning the adsorption mechanism of polyacrylic acid (PAA) and polyacrylic acid/polyethylene oxide (PAA/PEO) comb polymer onto lead magnesium niobate (PMN) powders. In the study adsorption behavior of PAA and PAA/PEO onto PMN surface were determined in aqueous solutions and the influence of pH and ionic strength was investigated. Results showed that adsorption of PAA or PAA/PEO increased with decreasing pH of the suspensions. The increase in the ionic strength or the presence of divalent cations caused an increase in the adsorption of both polyelectrolytes. It was observed that the adsorption reaches a maximum when PAA is fully complexed in solution. On the other hand, the increase in the adsorption of PAA/PEO onto PMN in the presence of monovalent or divalent salt was attributed to the decrease in the electrostatic forces rather than complex formation with the divalent metal ions in solution. Turbidity measurements showed that there is no complex formation between the divalent metal ions and PAA/PEO comb polymers due to shielding effect of the PEO teeth.
