Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 10In-Situ Spectroscopic Ellipsometry and Structural Study of Hfo2 Thin Films Deposited by Radio Frequency Magnetron Sputtering(American Institute of Physics, 2014) Cantaş, Ayten; Özyüzer, Gülnur Aygün; Basa, Deepak KumarWe have investigated the reduction of unwanted interfacial SiO2 layer at HfO2/Si interface brought about by the deposition of thin Hf metal buffer layer on Si substrate prior to the deposition of HfO2 thin films for possible direct contact between HfO2 thin film and Si substrate, necessary for the future generation devices based on high-κ HfO2 gate dielectrics. Reactive rf magnetron sputtering system along with the attached in-situ spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) was used to predeposit Hf metal buffer layer as well as to grow HfO2 thin films and also to undertake the in-situ characterization of the high-κ HfO2 thin films deposited on n-type 〈100〉 crystalline silicon substrate. The formation of the unwanted interfacial SiO2 layer and its reduction due to the predeposited Hf metal buffer layer as well as the depth profiling and also structure of HfO2 thin films were investigated by in-situ SE, Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, and Grazing Incidence X-ray Diffraction. The study demonstrates that the predeposited Hf metal buffer layer has played a crucial role in eliminating the formation of unwanted interfacial layer and that the deposited high-κ HfO2 thin films are crystalline although they were deposited at room temperature.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 33Citation - Scopus: 35Effects of Physical Growth Conditions on the Structural and Optical Properties of Sputtered Grown Thin Hfo2 Films(Elsevier Ltd., 2011) Aygün, Gülnur; Cantaş, Ayten; Şimşek, Yılmaz; Turan, RaşitHfO2 thin films were prepared by reactive DC magnetron sputtering technique on (100) p-Si substrate. The effects of O2/Ar ratio, substrate temperature, sputtering power on the structural properties of HfO2 grown films were studied by Spectroscopic Ellipsometer (SE), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) depth profiling techniques. The results show that the formation of a SiOx suboxide layer at the HfO2/Si interface is unavoidable. The HfO2 thickness and suboxide formation are highly affected by the growth parameters such as sputtering power, O 2/Ar gas ratio during sputtering, and substrate temperature. XRD spectra show that the deposited films have (111) monoclinic phase of HfO 2, which is also supported by FTIR spectra. XPS depth profiling spectra shows that highly reactive sputtered Hf atoms consume some of the oxygen atoms from the underlying SiO2 to form HfO2, leaving Si-Si bonds behind. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.

Bovine blood cells (n=5) were treated with the pressure of 55, 110, 154 and 220MPa at 25°C for 5min. Light microscopy, atomic force microscopy and flow cytometry studies revealed that RBCs were morphologically stable up until the 220MPa pressure treatments, at which surface modifications were observed. The platelets were found to be less stable than RBCs. HHP application did not cause any significant change in the signal intensity, band area and frequency values of the infrared bands with the exception that a significant variation was observed in the area of the cholesterol band. No statistically significant variations were observed in the secondary structure elements due to HHP treatment according to the artificial neural network study based on the FTIR data.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Hierarchial Coassembly of a Cyanine Dye in Poly(vinyl Alcohol) Fibrous Films by Electrospinning(American Chemical Society, 2013) Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Horzum, Nesrin; Özen, Bengisu; Özçelik, SerdarWe report molecular aggregate formation of TTBC (1,1′,3,3′- tetraethyl-5,5′,6,6′-tetrachlorobenzimidazolocarbocyanine) in submicrometer-sized PVA (poly(vinyl alcohol)) fibers by electrospinning. The formation of the molecular aggregate is examined by solution and instrumental parameters of electrospinning. The precursor solution of PVA/TTBC, in the range of 0.016-0.065 wt % is subjected to electrospinning under an electrical field ranging from 0.95 to 1.81 kV cm-1. Both randomly deposited and uniaxially aligned fibers are achieved by using two parallel-positioned metal strips as counter electrode. Photoluminescence and polarized Fourier transform infrared spectroscopies are employed to determine spectral properties of the fibers. H-aggregates are formed within the electrospun fibers, regardless of their alignment, and H- and J-type aggregates coexist in the alternative spin-coated and the cast films. A strongly polarized photoluminescence emission is observed in the direction of uniaxially aligned fibers as a result of the orientation of the H-aggregates along the fiber axis. We demonstrate that electrospinning is a process capable of forming and orienting TTBC aggregates during the structural development of the polymer/dye nanofibers. These fibrous films may potentially find applications in optics and electronics.
