    Electrospun Polyacrylonitrile (pan) Nanofiber: Preparation, Experimental Characterization, Organic Vapor Sensing Ability and Theoretical Simulations of Binding Energies
    (Springer, 2022) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Çapan, İnci; Erdoğan, Matem; Çapan, Rıfat; Tarhan, Özgür; Açıkbaş, Yaser
    In this study, polyacrilonitrile (PAN) nanofibers obtained by electrospinning were directly coated on the surface of a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) and were investigated for their sensing characteristics against chloroform, dichloromethane and carbon tetrachloride as volatile organic compounds (VOCs). PAN nanofibers were characterized by SEM, DSC, Raman Spectroscopy, and FT-IR and the results indicated that beadless and regular nanofibers with the average diameter of 182.7 ± 32 nm were obtained. Kinetic measurements indicated that electrospun PAN nanofibers were sensitive to the VOCs and they were appropriate for sensing applications of chlorine compounds. The reproducibility of PAN nanofiber sensor was also shown in this study. The results revealed that the diffusion coefficients of VOCs increased with the order carbontetrachloride < dichloromethane < chloroform which was supported by the density functional theory (DFT) simulations that revealed the highest binding energy for chloroform.

    Stable janus TaSe2 single-layers via surface functionalization
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Kahraman, Zeynep; Başkurt, Mehmet; Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Chaves, A.; Şahin, Hasan
    First-principles calculations are performed in order to investigate the formation of Janus structures of single-layer TaSe2. The structural optimizations and phonon band dispersions reveal that the formation and stability of hydrogenated (HTaSe2), fluorinated (FTaSe2), and the one-side hydrogenated and one-side fluorinated (Janus-HTaSe2F) single-layers are feasible in terms of their phonon band dispersions. It is shown that bare metallic single-layer TaSe2 can be turned into a semiconductor as only one of its surface is functionalized while it remains as a metal via its two surfaces functionalization. In addition, the semiconducting nature of single-layers HTaSe2 and FTaSe2 and the metallic behavior of Janus TaSe2 are found to be robust under applied uniaxal strains. Further analysis on piezoelectric properties of the predicted single-layers reveal the enhanced in-plane and out-of-plane piezoelectricity via formed Janus-HTaSe2F. Our study indicates that single-layer TaSe2 is a suitable host material for surface functionalization via fluorination and hydrogenation which exhibit distinctive electronic and vibrational properties. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.
