    Experimental and Computational Investigation of Graphene/Sams Schottky Diodes
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2018) Aydın, Hasan; Bacaksız, Cihan; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Karakaya, Caner; Mermer, Ömer; Selamet, Yusuf; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Şahin, Hasan; Şahin, Hasan; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    We have investigated the effect of two different self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on electrical characteristics of bilayer graphene (BLG)/n-Si Schottky diodes. Novel 4″bis(diphenylamino)-1, 1′:3″-terphenyl-5′ carboxylic acids (TPA) and 4,4-di-9H-carbazol-9-yl-1,1′:3′1′-terphenyl-5′ carboxylic acid (CAR) aromatic SAMs have been used to modify n-Si surfaces. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) results have been evaluated to verify the modification of n-Si surface. The current–voltage (I–V) characteristics of bare and SAMs modified devices show rectification behaviour verifying a Schottky junction at the interface. The ideality factors (n) from ln(I)–V dependences were determined as 2.13, 1.96 and 2.07 for BLG/n-Si, BLG/TPA/n-Si and BLG/CAR/n-Si Schottky diodes, respectively. In addition, Schottky barrier height (SBH) and series resistance (R s ) of SAMs modified diodes were decreased compared to bare diode due to the formation of a compatible interface between graphene and Si as well as π–π interaction between aromatic SAMs and graphene. The CAR-based device exhibits better diode characteristic compared to the TPA-based device. Computational simulations show that the BLG/CAR system exhibits smaller energy-level-differences than the BLG/TPA, which supports the experimental findings of a lower Schottky barrier and series resistance in BLG/CAR diode.

    Hydrogenation-driven phase transition in single-layer TiSe2
    (IOP Publishing Ltd., 2017) İyikanat, Fadıl; Kandemir, Ali; Şahin, Hasan; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Şahin, Hasan; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    First-principles calculations based on density-functional theory are used to investigate the effects of hydrogenation on the structural, vibrational, thermal and electronic properties of the charge density wave (CDW) phase of single-layer TiSe2. It is found that hydrogenation of single-layer TiSe2 is possible through adsorption of a H atom on each Se site. Our total energy and phonon calculations reveal that a structural phase transition occurs from the CDW phase to the T d phase upon full hydrogenation. Fully hydrogenated TiSe2 presents a direct gap semiconducting behavior with a band gap of 119 meV. Full hydrogenation also leads to a significant decrease in the heat capacity of single-layer TiSe2.

    Structural Changes in a Schiff Base Molecular Assembly Initiated by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy Tip
    (IOP Publishing Ltd., 2016) Tomak, Aysel; Bacaksız, Cihan; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Şahin, Hasan; Hür, Deniz; Tomak, Aysel; Senger, Ramazan Tuğrul; Birer, Özgür; Şahin, Hasan; Zareie, Hadi M.; 03.01.

    We report the controlled self-organization and switching of newly designed Schiff base (E)-4-((4-(phenylethynyl) benzylidene) amino) benzenethiol (EPBB) molecules on a Au (111) surface at room temperature. Scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS) were used to image and analyze the conformational changes of the EPBB molecules. The conformational change of the molecules was induced by using the STM tip while increasing the tunneling current. The switching of a domain or island of molecules was shown to be induced by the STM tip during scanning. Unambiguous fingerprints of the switching mechanism were observed via STM/STS measurements. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering was employed, to control and identify quantitatively the switching mechanism of molecules in a monolayer. Density functional theory calculations were also performed in order to understand the microscopic details of the switching mechanism. These calculations revealed that the molecular switching behavior stemmed from the strong interaction of the EPBB molecules with the STM tip. Our approach to controlling intermolecular mechanics provides a path towards the bottom-up assembly of more sophisticated molecular machines.
