Article Citation - WoS: 101Citation - Scopus: 105Defect-Engineering Agsbte2 With High Thermoelectric Performance(Wiley, 2023) Zhang, Yu; Li, Zhi; Singh, Saurabh; Nozariasbmarz, Amin; Li, Wenjie; Genç, Aziz; Xia, YiThermoelectric (TE) generators enable the direct and reversible conversion between heat and electricity, providing applications in both refrigeration and power generation. In the last decade, several TE materials with relatively high figures of merit (zT) have been reported in the low- and high-temperature regimes. However, there is an urgent demand for high-performance TE materials working in the mid-temperature range (400–700 K). Herein, p-type AgSbTe2 materials stabilized with S and Se co-doping are demonstrated to exhibit an outstanding maximum figure of merit (zTmax) of 2.3 at 673 K and an average figure of merit (zTave) of 1.59 over the wide temperature range of 300–673 K. This exceptional performance arises from an enhanced carrier density resulting from a higher concentration of silver vacancies, a vastly improved Seebeck coefficient enabled by the flattening of the valence band maximum and the inhibited formation of n-type Ag2Te, and ahighly improved stability beyond 673 K. The optimized material is used to fabricate a single-leg device with efficiencies up to 13.3% and a unicouple TE device reaching energy conversion efficiencies up to 12.3% at a temperature difference of 370 K. These results highlight an effective strategy to engineer high-performance TE material in the mid-temperature range.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Size Driven Barrier To Chirality Reversal in Electric Control of Magnetic Vortices in Ferromagnetic Nanodiscs(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022) Aldulaimi, W. A. S.; Okatan, Mahmut Barış; Şendur, Kürşat; Onbaşlı, Mehmet Cengiz; Mısırlıoğlu, İbrahim BurçNew high density storage media and spintronic devices come about with a progressing demand for the miniaturization of ferromagnetic structures. Vortex ordering of magnetic dipoles in such structures has been repeatedly observed as a stable state, offering the possibility of chirality in these states as a means to store information at high density. Electric pulses and magnetoelectric coupling are attractive options to control the chirality of such states in a deterministic manner. Here, we demonstrate the chirality reversal of vortex states in ferromagnetic nanodiscs via pulsed electric fields using a micromagnetic approach and focus on the analysis of the energetics of the reversal process. A strong thickness dependence of the chirality reversal in the nanodiscs is found that emanates from the anisotropy of the demagnetizing fields. Our results indicate that chiral switching of the magnetic moments in thin discs can give rise to a transient vortex-antivortex lattice not observed in thicker discs. This difference in the chirality reversal mechanism emanates from profoundly different energy barriers to overcome in thin and thicker discs. We also report the polarity-chirality correlation of a vortex that appears to depend on the aspect ratio of the nanodiscs.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Tribocorrosion-Resistant Ti40nb-Tin Composites Havingtio(2)-Based Nanotubular Surfaces(American Chemical Society, 2022) Çaha, İhsan; Alves, Alexandra Cruz; Chirico, Caterina; Pinto, Ana Maria; Tsipas, Sophia; Gordo, Elena; Toptan, FatihA novel multifunctional material was developed byhard TiN particle reinforcement addition to a beta-type Ti40Nb alloy,followed by surface functionalization, yielding the formation of ananotubular layer. Corrosion and tribocorrosion behaviors wereinvestigated in a phosphate-buffered saline solution at bodytemperature. The results revealed that the Ti40Nb-TiNcomposites presented similaripassandE(i=0)values together withrelatively similarRoxandCox. However, its tribocorrosion resistancedrastically improved (wear volume is almost 15 times lower than anunreinforced alloy) as a consequence of the load-carrying effectgiven by the reinforcement phases. The corrosion and tribocorro-sion behaviors were further improved through surface functionaliza-tion as observed by significantly loweripassand higherRoxvalues andalmost undetectable wear volume loss from tribocorrosion tests dueto the formation of a well-adhered anatase-rutile TiO2-based nanotubular layer.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Investigating Triple Superphosphate for Lead Removal From Aqueous Solutions(Taylor & Francis, 2022) Souley Garba, Mahamane Chapiou; Kaya, Erol; Gökelma, Mertol; Seyrankaya, AbdullahThe aim of this research is to investigate monocalcium phosphate monohydrate [Ca(H2PO4)2. H2O] also called triple superphosphate (TSP) for the removal of lead (Pb) from aqueous solutions. In this study, TSP was selected amongst various phosphate-based materials and fertilizers to act as the source of orthophosphate (PO43-) which is a powerful tool for metal fixation in soil and water. Thermodynamic equilibrium dissolution-precipitation relationships for the systems of Pb-H2O and Pb-PO43--H2O were drawn with the aid of Eh-pH stability diagrams to determine the predominance areas of different species. The lead phosphate compounds, identified through the stability area diagrams, were verified with the batch precipitation tests performed with standard solutions of lead and TSP at different conditions. It was observed that, depending upon solution conditions, TSP can precipitate 99.9% of the lead from the solution. Lead precipitates, analyzed by x-ray diffraction, showed the formation of lead phosphate compounds. The mechanism of TSP for the removal of lead from aqueous solutions is discussed.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 5Physically Unclonable Security Patterns Created by Electrospinning, and Authenticated by Two-Step Validation Method(IOP Publishing, 2022) Taşcıoğlu, Didem; Atçı, Arda; Sevim Ünlütürk, Seçil; Özçelik, SerdarCounterfeiting is a growing economic and social problem. For anticounterfeiting, random and inimitable droplet/fiber patterns were created by the electrospinning method as security tags that are detectable under UV light but invisible in daylight. To check the authenticity of the original security patterns created; images were collected with a simple smartphone microscope and a database of the recorded original patterns was created. The originality of the random patterns was checked by comparing them with the patterns recorded in the database. In addition, the spectral signature of the patterns in the droplet/fiber network was obtained with a simple and hand-held spectrometer. Thus, by reading the spectral signature from the pattern, the spectral information of the photoluminescent nanoparticles was verified and thus a second-step verification was established. In this way, anticounterfeiting technology that combines ink formula, unclonable security pattern creation and two-level verification is developed.
