    Polarity Induced Vapochromism and Vapoluminescence of Polythiophene Derivatives for Volatile Organic Compounds Classification
    (Elsevier, 2023) Karabacak, Soner; Qun, David Lee Chao; Ammanath, Gopal; Yeasmin, Sanjida; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Palaniappan, Alagappan; Liedberg, Bo; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan
    Polarity induced vapochromic and vapoluminescent properties of cationic poly-3-alkoxythiophene derivatives (PT) casted on polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes are reported. PT with six different pendant groups are designed to differentially interact with volatile organic compounds (VOC) of varying polarities, thereby enabling their classification. PT exhibit a rapid vapochromic response with a concurrent modulation of vapoluminescence due to the non-covalent cation-? interactions between the pendant groups and the PT backbone. Adsorption of VOC on pendant groups alters the conformation of PT backbone, thus resulting in an increase in intensity and blue shifting of fluorescence emission within the visible spectrum. The vapoluminescent responses are found to be more sensitive with a limit of detection (LOD) of ?7 ppm and a wider dynamic range as compared to the vapochromic responses with a LOD of ?60 ppm for the detection of a model VOC: chloroform. Notably, all the PT illustrate an instantaneous recovery of colour and luminescence upon desorption of VOC. PT interaction with VOC of varying polarities was ascertained using density functional theory (DFT) and principal component analysis (PCA) methodologies. In summary, the polarity induced vapochromic and vapoluminescent properties of PT could yield a selective and sensitive vapochromic and fluorometric dual-mode VOC detection platform. © 2023

    Identification of a Magnetic Phase Via a Raman Spectrum in Single-Layer Mnse: an Ab Initio Study
    (Elsevier, 2022) Yayak, Yankı Öncü; Şahin, Hasan; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet
    Motivated by the recent experimental realization of single-layer two-dimensional MnSe [ACS Nano2021, 15, 13794-13802], structural, magnetic, elastic, vibrational, and electronic properties of single-layer MnSe are investigated by using density functional theory-based calculations. Among four different magnetic phases, namely, ferromagnetic (FM) and Nẽel-, zigzag-, and stripy-antiferromagnetic (AFM) phases, the Nẽel-AFM structure is found to be the energetically most favorable phase. Structural optimizations show the formation of in-plane anisotropy within the structures of zigzag- and stripy-AFM phases in single-layer MnSe. For the dynamically stable four magnetic phases, predicted Raman spectra reveal that each phase exhibits distinctive vibrational features and can be distinguished from each other. In addition, the elastic constants indicate the mechanical stability of each magnetic phase in single-layer MnSe and reveal the soft nature of each phase. Moreover, electronic band dispersion calculations show the indirect band gap semiconducting nature with varying electronic band gap energies for all magnetic phases. Furthermore, the atomic orbital-based density of states reveals the existence of out-of-plane orbitals dominating the top valence states in zigzag- and stripy-AFM phases, giving rise to the localized states. The stability of different magnetic phases and their distinct vibrational and electronic properties make single-layer MnSe a promising candidate for nanoelectronic and spintronic applications.
