    Synthesis, Photophysical and Electrochemical Properties of Novel Carbazole-Triazine Based High Triplet Energy, Solution-Processable Materials
    (Elsevier, 2018) Öner, Saliha; Aydemir, Murat; Yeşil, Fatih; Şahin, Çiğdem; Varlıklı, Canan
    A series of molecules; tBuCz1SiTrz, tBuCz2SiTrz and tBuCz3SiTrz, which contain carbazole unit as hole-transporting group (donor-D) and triazine unit as electron transporting group (acceptor-A) were synthesized and characterized as high-triplet energy (>2.9 eV), solution-processable bipolar emitting materials. The conjugation between the D-A groups was interrupted by using bulky tetraphenylsilane groups as spacer aiming to obtain large bandgap and high-triplet energy. The photophysical behaviors of the molecules were investigated by UV-Vis absorption, photoluminescence, phosphorescence, photoluminescence quantum yield and lifetime measurements. Solvent polarity effects were investigated on the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) behaviour and large solvatochromic effect was observed with the increasing solvent polarity. Electrochemical properties were determined by cyclic voltammetry. All molecules showed oxidation bands arise from the carbazole groups. Reduction bands were originated from the triazine groups and the intramolecular charge transfer between D-A groups. Photophysical, electrochemical and computational characterizations addressed that tBuCz2SiTrz has the weakest ICT character, highest photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and charge balance.

    P3HT-graphene bilayer electrode for Schottky junction photodetectors
    (IOP Publishing Ltd., 2018) Aydın, Hasan; Kalkan, Sırrı Batuhan; Varlıklı, Canan; Çelebi, Cem
    We have investigated the effect of a poly (3-hexylthiophene-2.5-diyl)(P3HT)-graphene bilayer electrode on the photoresponsivity characteristics of Si-based Schottky photodetectors. P3HT, which is known to be an electron donor and absorb light in the visible spectrum, was placed on CVD grown graphene by dip-coating method. The results of the UV-vis and Raman spectroscopy measurements have been evaluated to confirm the optical and electronic modification of graphene by the P3HT thin film. Current-voltage measurements of graphene/Si and P3HT-graphene/Si revealed rectification behavior confirming a Schottky junction formation at the graphene/Si interface. Time-resolved photocurrent spectroscopy measurements showed the devices had excellent durability and a fast response speed. We found that the maximum spectral photoresponsivity of the P3HT-graphene/Si photodetector increased more than three orders of magnitude compared to that of the bare graphene/Si photodetector. The observed increment in the photoresponsivity of the P3HT-graphene/Si samples was attributed to the charge transfer doping from P3HT to graphene within the spectral range between near-ultraviolet and near-infrared. Furthermore, the P3HT-graphene electrode was found to improve the specific detectivity and noise equivalent power of graphene/Si photodetectors. The obtained results showed that the P3HT-graphene bilayer electrodes significantly improved the photoresponsivity characteristics of our samples and thus can be used as a functional component in Si-based optoelectronic device applications.
