Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Breaking the Boundaries of the Goldschmidt Tolerance Factor With Ethylammonium Lead Iodide Perovskite Nanocrystals(American Chemical Society, 2024) Güvenç, Çetin Meriç; Toso, Stefano; Ivanov, Yurii P.; Saleh, Gabriele; Balcı, Sinan; Divitini, Giorgio; Manna, LiberatoWe report the synthesis of ethylammonium lead iodide (EAPbI3) colloidal nanocrystals as another member of the lead halide perovskites family. The insertion of an unusually large A-cation (274 pm in diameter) in the perovskite structure, hitherto considered unlikely due to the unfavorable Goldschmidt tolerance factor, results in a significantly larger lattice parameter compared to the Cs-, methylammonium- and formamidinium-based lead halide perovskite homologues. As a consequence, EAPbI3 nanocrystals are highly unstable, evolving to a nonperovskite delta-EAPbI3 polymorph within 1 day. Also, EAPbI3 nanocrystals are very sensitive to electron irradiation and quickly degrade to PbI2 upon exposure to the electron beam, following a mechanism similar to that of other hybrid lead iodide perovskites (although degradation can be reduced by partially replacing the EA+ ions with Cs+ ions). Interestingly, in some cases during this degradation the formation of an epitaxial interface between (EA x Cs1-x )PbI3 and PbI2 is observed. The photoluminescence emission of the EAPbI3 perovskite nanocrystals, albeit being characterized by a low quantum yield (similar to 1%), can be tuned in the 664-690 nm range by regulating their size during the synthesis. The emission efficiency can be improved upon partial alloying at the A site with Cs+ or formamidinium cations. Furthermore, the morphology of the EAPbI3 nanocrystals can be chosen to be either nanocube or nanoplatelet, depending on the synthesis conditions.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 9Recyclability of Cspbbr3 Quantum Dot Glass Nanocomposites for Their Long-Standing Use in White Leds(2022) Vahedigharehchopogh, Naji; Erol, Erdinç; Kıbrıslı, Orhan; Genç, Aziz; Çelikbilek Ersundu, Miray; Ersundu, Ali ErçinThe embedding of CsPbBr3 perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) in an inorganic glass matrix not only protects them against chemical, thermal, and photodegradation but also provides an effective strategy to isolate toxic elements such as Pb from the environment for a long period of time. Herein, the recyclability of glass is another important feature that contributes to environmental sustainability. Hence, effective and efficient recycling technologies are needed for the widespread use of PQD glass nanocomposites (GNCs) in many commercial applications. However, studies on the recyclability of CsPbBr3 PQD GNCs have not been conducted so far. Therefore, in this work, we investigate the structural, thermal, optical, and photoluminescence properties of recycled CsPbBr3 PQD GNCs to assess their suitability as long-standing and reusable luminescent materials. For this purpose, the recyclability of GNCs is checked by three repeated melt-quenching and subsequent heat-treatment processes. Although the color emission properties of GNCs under the same heat-treatment conditions show a slight variation after each recycling step, PQD GNCs almost retain their PLQY even after the last recycling step. Ultimately, a prototype white light-emitting diode is constructed by coupling recycled PQD GNCs and a commercial red phosphor on top of a blue LED chip showing high-performance with CIE color coordinates of x = 0.3228, y = 0.3470 and a CCT value of 5920 K. The findings of this work reveal that the recyclability of PQD GNCs holds great promise for a more sustainable technology.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Highly Mobile Excitons in Single Crystal Methylammonium Lead Tribromide Perovskite Microribbons(American Chemical Society, 2022) McClintock, Luke; Song, Ziyi; Travaglini, H. Clark; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Chandrasekaran, Vigneshwaran; Htoon, Han; Yarotski, Dmitry; Yu, DongExcitons are often given negative connotation in solar energy harvesting in part due to their presumed short diffusion lengths. We investigate exciton transport in single-crystal methylammonium lead tribromide (MAPbBr3) microribbons via spectrally, spatially, and temporally resolved photocurrent and photoluminescence measurements. Distinct peaks in the photocurrent spectra unambiguously confirm exciton formation and allow for accurate extraction of the low temperature exciton binding energy (39 meV). Photocurrent decays within a few μm at room temperature, while a gate-tunable long-range photocurrent component appears at lower temperatures (about 100 μm below 140 K). Carrier lifetimes of 1.2 μs or shorter exclude the possibility of the long decay length arising from slow trapped-carrier hopping. Free carrier diffusion is also an unlikely source of the highly nonlocal photocurrent, due to their small fraction at low temperatures. We attribute the long-distance transport to high-mobility excitons, which may open up new opportunities for novel exciton-based photovoltaic applications.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 21Graphene-Supported Lafeo3 for Photocatalytic Hydrogen Energy Production(Wiley, 2021) Orak, Ceren; Yüksel, AslıHydrogen is a green, environmentally benign and sustainable energy source with no harmful combustion products to fulfil the increasing energy demand. Photocatalytic oxidation has various advantageous to produce hydrogen from different sources such as wastewater, alcohol solutions using different types of catalysts. Sucrose solution was chosen as a model solution to evolve hydrogen using LFO and GLFO catalysts under solar light irradiation, and graphene was used as a catalyst support to enhance the amount of produced hydrogen amount. A characterization study, which consists of SEM-EDX, BET, XRD, PL, TEM, XPS and FT-IR analyses, was carried out. A full factorial design was created via Minitab 18 to analyse the factors affecting the produced hydrogen amount, which are pH, catalyst loading, H2O2 concentration and graphene content statistically. Based on the results, graphene content is an important parameter and pH and H2O2 concentration have a synergetic effect over hydrogen production. Additionally, the effects of calcination temperature, pH, H2O2 concentration and catalyst loading over produced gases were investigated. The best promising result was obtained as 3388 mu mol/g(cat) at the following reaction conditions: 7.5 of pH, 0.1 g L-1 catalyst loading (GLFO, which is calcined at 700 degrees C) and using 15 mM H2O2 under solar light irradiation. Novelty Statement Hydrogen is produced from sucrose solution with low cost process requiring no special equipment, high pressure or temperature. First study that uses perovskite catalysts for the production of hydrogen from sucrose solution by photo-Fenton like oxidation GLFO is a promising photocatalyst for H-2 production by solar-Fenton like oxidation with the highest H-2 evaluation at 3388.34 mu mol/g(cat).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: 15Citation - Scopus: 12Solubility and Aging of Lead Magnesium Niobate in Water(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Şakar-Deliormanlı, Aylin; Çelik, Erdal; Polat, MehmetLead magnesium niobate (PMN) is an important relaxor ferroelectric material commonly employed in multilayer capacitor and actuator manufacturing owing to its high dielectric constant and superior electrostrictive properties. However, stability of this material in water is not very well known and there is need for a detailed investigation. In this research, solubility of lead magnesium niobate powders in water was determined as a function of solids concentration. The obtained results showed that the amount of cation leaching from the PMN surface depends on the pH value of the suspension and the solids concentration. The Pb2+ and Mg2+ ion dissolution was very high especially in the acidic pH range. Nevertheless, neither the dissolution mechanism nor the effects of dissolved ions on the stability were the same for those ions. The study provides new aspects on the solubility of perovskite materials which possess more than one soluble cation in their structure.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 9Preparation of the Pb(mg1/3nb2 Films by Aqueous Tape Casting(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Şakar-Deliormanlı, Aylin; Çelik, Erdal; Polat, MehmetLead magnesium niobate (PMN) is a relaxor ferroelectric material. Because of its high dielectric constant and superior electrostrictive properties it is commonly used in the manufacture of multilayer electronic devices which is typically produced by tape casting. However, preparation of PMN slurry formulations to use in aqueous tape casting process is not investigated in detail yet. Therefore, in this study aqueous PMN formulations were developed for tape casting and its relation with the final properties of PMN films were investigated. The slurries were prepared using poly(acrylic acid)-based comb polymer as the dispersant, nonionic acrylic latex as the binder and the hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose as the wetting agent. The results showed that it is possible to prepare flexible, crack-free PMN films using highly concentrated suspensions without using any plasticizer. The study gives guidelines for the aqueous tape casting of PMN and can be adapted to processing of other multi-component metal oxides.
