    Optimization and Performance of Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Dots as a Color Conversion Layer for White-Led Applications
    (Beilstein-Institut Zur Forderung der Chemischen Wissenschaften, 2019) Güner, Tuğrul; Yüce, Hürriyet; Taşçıoğlu, Didem; Şimşek, Eren; Savacı, Umut; Genç, Aziz; Demir, Mustafa Muammer
    In this study, green-emitting nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDots) were synthesized and incorporated into drop-cast composite films for use as color conversion layers in a white-LED configuration to generate white light. In order to resolve the red deficiency of this configuration, a commercial red phosphor was integrated into the system. Moreover, the N-CDots were also processed into polymer/N-CDot composite fibers, for which we determined the amount of N-CDots that yielded adequate white-light properties. Finally, we showed that white light with excellent properties could be generated by employing both of the fabricated N-CDot composites either as drop-cast films or composite fibers. Hence, N-CDots provide a promising alternative to inorganic phosphors that are commonly employed in white-LED configurations.

    Electrospun Polystyrene Fibers Knitted Around Imprinted Acrylate Microspheres as Sorbent for Paraben Derivatives
    (Elsevier, 2018) Demirkurt, Merve; Ölçer, Yekta Arya; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Eroğlu, Ahmet Eroğlu
    Parabens are used as antimicrobial preservatives in food, cosmetic products and pharmaceuticals regardless of their endocrine disrupting effect. In this study, highly selective molecular imprinted polymers (MIPs) were synthesized in submicron-sizes and converted to an SPME fiber coating through electrospinning process in order to determine parabens in water samples. Conversion of MIP to a fiber is achieved via creation of spacial knitting around MIP by polystyrene. The selectivity and extraction ability of the fibers were compared with the commercial fibers and the corresponding non-imprinted polymer (NIP) coated fiber. The coated fiber showed better extraction ability among them. Also, the results revealed that the fiber has better selectivity for benzyl paraben and the other structurally-related compounds, such as methyl and propyl paraben. Extraction efficiency of prepared fibers for three parabens has been tested by spiking bottled, tap and sea water samples. The recoveries changed between 92.2 ± 0.8 and 99.8 ± 0.1 for three different water types. This method could be used for selective and sensitive determination of parabens in aqueous samples.

    Polarized Emission From Cspbbr3 Nanowire Embedded-Electrospun Pu Fibers
    (IOP Publishing Ltd., 2018) Güner, Tuğrul; Topçu, Gökhan; Savacı, Umut; Genç, Aziz; Sarı, Emre; Demir, Mustafa Muammer
    Interest in all-inorganic halide perovskites has been increasing dramatically due to their high quantum yield, band gap tunability, and ease of fabrication in compositional and geometric diversity. In this study, we synthesized several hundreds of nanometer long and ∼4 nm thick CsPbBr3 nanowires (NWs). They were then integrated into electrospun polyurethane (PU) fibers to examine the polarization behavior of the composite fiber assembly. Aligned electrospun fibers containing CsPbBr3 NWs showed a remarkable increase in the degree of polarization from 0.17-0.30. This combination of NWs and PU fibers provides a promising composite material for various applications such as optoelectronic devices and solar cells.

    Hierarchically Structured Metal Oxide/Silica Nanofibers by Colloid Electrospinning
    (American Chemical Society, 2012) Horzum Polat, Nesrin; Mun˜oz-Espí, Rafael; Glasser, Gunnar; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Landfester, Katharina; Crespy, Daniel
    We present herein a new concept for the preparation of nanofibrous metal oxides based on the simultaneous electrospinning of metal oxide precursors and silica nanoparticles. Precursor fibers are prepared by electrospinning silica nanoparticles (20 nm in diameter) dispersed in an aqueous solution of poly(acrylic acid) and metal salts. Upon calcination in air, the poly(acrylic acid) matrix is removed, the silica nanoparticles are cemented, and nanocrystalline metal oxide particles of 4-14 nm are nucleated at the surface of the silica nanoparticles. The obtained continuous silica fibers act as a structural framework for metal oxide nanoparticles and show improved mechanical integrity compared to the neat metal oxide fibers. The hierarchically nanostructured materials are promising for catalysis applications, as demonstrated by the successful degradation of a model dye in the presence of the fibers.

    Humidity Sensing Properties of Zno-Based Fibers by Electrospinning
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2011) Horzum Polat, Nesrin; Taşçıoğlu, Didem; Okur, Salih; Demir, Mustafa Muammer
    Zinc oxide (ZnO) based fibers with a diameter of 80-100 nm were prepared by electrospinning. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and zinc acetate dihydrate were dissolved in water and the polymer/salt solution was electrospun at 2.5 kV cm-1. The resulting electrospun fibers were subjected to calcination at 500 °C for 2 h to obtain ZnO-based fibers. Humidity sensing properties of the fiber mats were investigated by quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) method and electrical measurements. The adsorption kinetics under constant relative humidity (RH) between 10% and 90% were explained using Langmuir adsorption model. Results of the measurements showed that ZnO-based fibers were found to be promising candidate for humidity sensing applications at room temperature.

    Mechanical Interlocking Between Porous Electrospun Polystyrene Fibers and an Epoxy Matrix
    (American Chemical Society, 2014) Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Horzum, Nesrin; Taşdemirci, Alper; Turan, Ali Kıvanç; Güden, Mustafa
    An epoxy matrix filled with nonwoven mats of porous polystyrene (PS) fibers processed by an electrospinning was compression tested at quasi-static (1 × 10–3 s–1) and high strain (315 s–1) rates. The electrospun PS fibers with a diameter between 6 and 9 μm, accommodated spherical pores on the surface with the sizes ranging from 0.1 to 0.2 μm. The filling epoxy matrix with 0.2 wt % PS fibers increased the compressive elastic modulus and compressive strength over those of neat epoxy resin. The microscopic observations indicated that the surface pores facilitated the resin intrusions into the fiber, enhancing the interlocking between resin and fibers, and increased the deformation energy expenditure of the polymer matrix.

    Formation of Pseudoisocyanine J-Aggregates in Poly(vinyl Alcohol) Fibers by Electrospinning
    (American Chemical Society, 2009) Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Özen, Bengisu; Özçelik, Serdar
    Submicrometer diameter, light emitting fibers of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) doped with pseudoisocyanine (1,1′-diethyl-2,2′-cyanine bromide, PIC) dye were prepared by electrospinning. A horizontal setup was employed with a stationary collector consisting of two parallel-positioned metal strips separated by a void gap. Formation of uniaxially aligned and randomly deposited fibers in electrospun films was confirmed by microscopy. Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy is used to evaluate spectral properties of both types of fibers doped with PIC. While PIC molecules were individually dispersed in PVA solution, they assemble into J-aggregates upon electrospinning when the weight fraction of PIC molecules is above 2.5 wt %. The formation of J-aggregates was observed in both randomly deposited and uniaxially aligned electrospun fibers. Moreover, the fibers aligned uniaxially showed a high degree of polarized emission (PL |/PL⊥)10), arising from the orientation of J-aggregates along the fiber axis. On the other hand, isotropic emission of J-aggregates was observed from the fibers deposited randomly. As a conclusion, electrospinning was found to be an efficient and a practical method to form highly oriented J-aggregates dispersed into polymer fibers. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time formation of J-aggregates (a bottom-up approach) and electrospinning (a topdown approach) is successfully combined.
