Research Project Fullerenlere Alternatif Yeni Asetil Köprülü Perilendiimidlerin Sentezi ve Akseptör Özelliklerinin Fotofiziksel Süreçlerle Araştırılması(2019) Varlıklı, CananOrganik güneş hücresi (OGH) nde elektrik üretimi, donörün ışığı soğruması ekziton oluşumu, ekziton difüzyonu, ayrışması ve elektron transfer süreçleri, elektron ve boşlukların katot ve anotta toplanması ile gerçekleşir. Literatürde birçok farklı elektron verici (D) ve alıcı (A) malzeme geliştirilmektedir. A malzemeleri içerisinde en sık kullanılanlardan birisi fulleren ve türevleridir. Bu türevlerin üretimi oldukça zor ve yüksek maliyetlidir. Bu sebeple, literatürde son 10 yıl da, fulleren içermeyen OGHne olan ilginin arttığı görülmektedir. Perilendiimidler (PDIler), görünür bölgedeki yüksek molar soğurma katsayıları ve elektron ilgileri ile dikkat çekmektedir. Ancak, PDIlerin genel organik çözgenlerdeki çözünürlükleri düşük, agregatlaşma eğilimleri fazladır. Güçlü perilen-perilen etkileşimleri film fazında mikroboyutlara ulaşabilecek kristalitler oluşturabilmektedir. Bu durum ise, ekziton haraketliliğini ve elektron ve boşlukların elektrotlarda toplanmasını olumsuz etkilemektedir. Bu proje kapsamında, izomerik saflıkta 1,6- ve 1,7- bis[(trifenil)(4-etinil-fenil)silan)- N,N′-di(2- etilhekzil)-perilen-3, 4, 9, 10-tetrakarboksilikasit diimid [1,6 ve 1,7-Di(TPhSi)APDI] sentezlenmiş, 1H ve 13C NMR ile karakterize edilmiştir. Saf izomerlerin absorpsiyon ve fotoluminesans özellikleri, indirgenme potansiyelleri, en yüksek enerjili elektron içeren moleküler orbital ve en düşük enerjili elektron içermeyen moleküler orbital enerji seviyeleri tespit edilmiştir. Referans olarak sentezlenen N,N′-di(2-etilhekzil)-perilen-3, 4, 9, 10- tetrakarboksilikasit diimid [PDI(2EH)] ve 1,6- ve 1,7-Di-TPhSiAPDI(2EH) in çözelti ve film fazı fotofiziksel özellikleri incelenmiştir. Yeni sentezlenen PDI türevlerinin ve ticari fulleren türevinin (PCBM), ticari bir donör olan poli[N-9'-heptadekanil-2,7-karbazol-alt-5,5-(4',7'-di-2- thienyl-2',1',3'-benzothiadiazole)] (PCDTBT) ile çözelti ve film fazındaki etkileşimleri izlenerek, karşılaştırılmıştır. Filmlerin morjolojik özellikleri atomik kuvvet mikroskobu ölçümleri ile tespit edilmiştir. 1,7-Di-TPhSiAPDI(2EH) in agregatlaşma eğiliminin ve fotokararlılığının PDI(2EH) den düşük, soğurma dalga boyunun, elektron ilgisinin ve yaşam ömrünün PDI(2EH) den yüksek ve molar soğurma katsayısının PDI(2EH) ile aynı seviyede olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu özellikleri ile yeni molekülün uygun D malzeme kullanımı ile hazırlanacak OGH aygıtında, PDI(2EH) den yüksek verim vereceği düşünülmüştür.Article Single Layer Res2h2: Stability, Raman Activity and Electronic Properties(Eskişehir Teknik Üniversitesi, 2018) Ünsal, Elif; Şahin, HasanIn this study, the structural, vibrational and electronic properties of the hydrogenated single layer of ReS2 are investigated byperforming the first principle calculations based on density functional theory. We found that the characteristic properties ofthe monolayer ReS2 can be manipulated upon the hydrogen functionalization. As the monolayer ReS2, the ReS2H2 hasdistorted 1T phase; however, the bonding in Re slab significantly varies with the hydrogenation. Our results demonstrate thatthe full-surface hydrogenation leads to an expansion in lattice and the Re4 tetramer-chains in the monolayer ReS2 areseparated into two dimers in the hydrogenated monolayer. It is calculated that the dynamically stable monolayer of ReS2H2has 26 Raman-active vibrational modes. Constant volume specific heat calculations are also performed and the resultsindicate that at high temperature, the monolayer ReS2 approaches to limit of 3R before the monolayer ReS2H2. By performingthe electronic band structure calculations, it is shown that when the ReS2 surface is fully hydrogenated, there occurs a directto indirect band gap transition and the semiconducting hydrogen-induced monolayer has a band gap of 0.74 eV.Patent Silicon-Based Emitter Compound(Espacenet, 2018)The present invention relates to emitter compounds E of formula or salts thereof based on a triazine core, substituted with at least one moiety of formula: and at least one donor moiety.

However, they are typically produced under harsh synthesis conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, and/or by employing a large amount of solvent. In this work, a facile, water-based, rapid method has been proposed to fabricate lanthanide-doped hydroxide-based phosphors. In this sense, sub-micrometer-sized Y(OH)(3):Eu3+ particles (as red phosphor) were synthesized in water at ambient conditions in <= 60 min reaction time. The doping ratio was controlled from 2.5-20 mol %. Additionally, first principle calculations were performed on Y(OH)(3):Eu3+ to understand the preferable doping scenario and its optoelectronic properties. As an application, these fabricated red phosphors were integrated into a PDMS/YAG:Ce3+ composite and used to generate white light. The resulting white light showed a remarkable improvement (approximate to 24%) in terms of luminous efficiency, a slight reduction of CCT (from 3900 to 3600 K), and an unchanged CRI (approximate to 60) as the amount of Y(OH)(3):Eu3+ was increased.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Soluble Cytotoxic Ruthenium(ii) Complexes With 2-Hydrazinopyridine(Pleiades Publishing, 2019) Soliman, A. A.; Attaby, F. A.; Alajrawy, O., I; Majeed, S. R.; Şahin, C.; Varlıklı, CananNew water soluble Ru(II) binary complex [Ru(C5H7N3)(X)(H2O)(2)] with 2-hydrazinopyridine and its ternary complexes with X = dichloride, oxalate, malonate or pyrophosphate ligands have been synthesized. The complexes have been characterized using elemental analyses, mass, IR, and UV-Vis. spectroscopies, cyclic voltammetry, magnetic susceptibility, and thermal analysis. The complexes are diamagnetic and the electronic spectral data showed that peaks are due to low spin octahedral Ru(II) complexes. The optimized structures of the complexes 1-4 indicate distorted octahedral geometry with bond angles around the ruthenium atom ranged from 80.44 degrees to 99.64 degrees. The values of the electronic energies (-635 to -1145 a.u.), the highest occupied molecular orbital energies (-0.181 to 0.073 a.u.) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energies (-0.056 to 0.167 a.u.) indicate the stability of the complexes. The complexes are polarized as indicated from the dipole moment values (9.39-14.27 Debye). The complexes have noticeable cytotoxicity with IC50 (mu M): 0.011-0.062 (HepG-2), 0.015-0.080 (MCF-7), 0.015-0.116 (HCT-116), and PC-3 (0.034-0.125).Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 9Fourier Transform Plasmon Resonance Spectrometer Using Nanoslit-Nanowire Pair(American Institute of Physics, 2019) Uulu, Doolos Aibek; Ashirov, Timur; Polat, Nahit; Yakar, Ozan; Balcı, Sinan; Kocabaş, CoşkunIn this paper, we present a nanoscale Fourier transform spectrometer using a plasmonic interferometer consisting of a tilt subwavelength slit-nanowire pair on a metallic surface fabricated by the focused ion beam microfabrication technique. The incident broadband light strongly couples with the surface plasmons on the gold surface, and thus, surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are generated. The launched SPPs interfere with the incident light and generate high contrast interference fringes in the nanoslit. The transmitted SPPs through the metal nanoslit can decouple into free space and are collected by an objective in the far field. The spectroscopic information of the incidence light is obtained by fast Fourier transform of the fringe pattern of the SPPs. In our design, there is no need for a bulky dispersive spectrometer or dispersive optical elements. The dimension of the spectrometer is around 200 mu m length. Our design is based on inherent coherence of the SPP waves propagating through the subwavelength metal nanoslit structures etched into an opaque gold film.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Color-Tunable All-Inorganic Cspbbr3 Perovskites Nanoplatelet Films for Photovoltaic Devices(American Chemical Society, 2019) Özcan, Mehmet; Özen, Sercan; Topçu, Gökhan; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Şahin, HasanHerein, we demonstrate a novel coating approach to fabricate CsPbBr3 perovskite nanoplatelet film with heat-free process via electrospraying from precursor solution. A detailed study is carried out to determine the effect of various parameters such as ligand concentration, electric field, flow rate, etc. on the optical properties. By controlling the volume ratios of the oleylamine (OAm) and oleic acid (OA), the coalescing and thickness of the resulting nanoplatelets can be readily tuned that results in control over emission in the range of 100 nm without any antisolvent crystallization or heating processes. The varying electrical field and flow rate was found as inefficient on the emission characteristics of the films. In addition, the crystal films were obtained under ambient conditions on the ITO coated glass surfaces as in the desired pattern. As a result, we demonstrated a facile and reproducible way of synthesizing and coating of CsPbBr3 perovskite nanoplatelets which is suitable for large-scale production. In this method, the ability of tuning the degree of quantum confinement for perovskite nanoplatelets is promising approach for the one-step fabrication of crystal films that may enable the use in optoelectronics.Article Citation - WoS: 24Citation - Scopus: 24Defect Tolerant and Dimension Dependent Ferromagnetism in Mnse2(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019) Eren, İsmail; İyikanat, Fadıl; Şahin, HasanBy performing density functional theory-based calculations, we investigate the structural, vibrational, electronic and magnetic properties of 2D monolayers, nanoribbons and quantum dots of MnSe2. Vibrational spectrum analysis reveals the dynamical stability of not only ferromagnetic but also antiferromagnetic phases of single layer MnSe2 crystal structures. Electronically, calculations show that 1T-MnSe2 is a ferromagnetic structure displaying metallic behavior. It is also found that the structure preserves its dynamical stability and metallic behavior even under the presence of high density Se vacancies. Moreover, it was predicted that, differing from the 2D MnSe2, metal-metal interaction driven reconstructions result in ferromagnetic-to-antiferromagnetic crossover in the ground state of nanoribbons and quantum dots. With its robust ferromagnetic metallic character in the 2D ultra-thin limit and dimension-dependent magnetic properties, MnSe2 is an important candidate for spintronic device applications.Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 29Stacking-Dependent Excitonic Properties of Bilayer Blue Phosphorene(American Physical Society, 2019) İyikanat, Fadıl; Torun, Engin; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Şahin, HasanAb initio calculations in the framework of many-body perturbation theory (MBPT) are performed to calculate the electronic and optical properties of monolayer and bilayer blue phosphorene with different stacking configurations. It is found that the stacking configuration of bilayer blue phosphorene strongly affects the electronic band gap of the material. By solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) on top of the G(0)W(0) calculation, the binding energies, spectral positions, and band decomposition of excitons of monolayer and bilayer configurations are investigated. The most prominent two excitonic peaks of bilayers are examined in detail. Our calculations show that different stacking configurations lead to distinct interlayer interaction characteristics which lead to substantial change in the optical spectrum of bilayer blue phosphorene. Mostly intralayer and mixed interlayer excitons with quite high binding energies are obtained in bilayer blue phosphorene. Our results show that excitonic properties of ultrathin materials play an important role in tuning and improving the optoelectronic performance of two-dimensional materials.Article Citation - WoS: 35Citation - Scopus: 40Two-Dimensional Covalent Crystals by Chemical Conversion of Thin Van Der Waals Materials(American Chemical Society, 2019) Sreepal, Vishnu; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Vasu, Kalangi S.; Kelly, Daniel J.; Taylor, Sarah F. R.; Şahin, Hasan; Kravets, Vasyl G.; Nair, Rahul R.Most of the studied two-dimensional (2D) materials have been obtained by exfoliation of van der Waals crystals. Recently, there has been growing interest in fabricating synthetic 2D crystals which have no layered bulk analogues. These efforts have been focused mainly on the surface growth of molecules in high vacuum. Here, we report an approach to making 2D crystals of covalent solids by chemical conversion of van der Waals layers. As an example, we used 2D indium selenide (InSe) obtained by exfoliation and converted it by direct fluorination into indium fluoride (InF3), which has a nonlayered, rhombohedral structure and therefore cannot possibly be obtained by exfoliation. The conversion of InSe into InF3 is found to be feasible for thicknesses down to three layers of InSe, and the obtained stable InF3 layers are doped with selenium. We study this new 2D material by optical, electron transport, and Raman measurements and show that it is a semiconductor with a direct bandgap of 2.2 eV, exhibiting high optical transparency across the visible and infrared spectral ranges. We also demonstrate the scalability of our approach by chemical conversion of large-area, thin InSe laminates obtained by liquid exfoliation, into InF3 films. The concept of chemical conversion of cleavable thin van der Waals crystals into covalently bonded noncleavable ones opens exciting prospects for synthesizing a wide variety of novel atomically thin covalent crystals.
