    Lipid Bilayer on Wrinkled-Interfaced Graphene Field Effect Transistor
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Özkendir İnanç, Dilce; Çelebi, Cem; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan
    This study describes lipid bilayer-based sensor interface on SiO2 encapsulated graphene field effect transistors (GFET). The SiO2 layer was utilized as a lipid compatible surface that drives bilayer formation. The two types of surface morphologies i) wrinkled morphology by thermal evaporation (TE) and ii) flat morphology by pulsed electron deposition (PED) were obtained. The sensing performance of wrinkled and flat interfaced-GFETs were investigated, pH sensitivity of wrinkled interfaced-GFETs were found to be ten fold larger than the flat ones. The enhanced sensitivity is attributed to thinning of the oxide layer by formation of wrinkles thereby facilitating electrostatic gating on graphene. We foresee that described wrinkled SiO2 interfaced-GFET holds promise as a cell membrane mimicking sensing platform for novel bioelectronic applications. © 2020

    Perylene-Embedded Electrospun Ps Fibers for White Light Generation
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2019) Güner, Tuğrul; Aksoy, Erkan; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Varlıklı, Canan
    Perylene dyes have been employed in the fabrication of white light due to their superior photophysical properties and relatively easy synthetic methods. However, their molecular aggregation in solid state is one of the main handicaps since it causes deviation in their optical properties and quenches photoluminescence quantum yields (Phi(f)). Investigation of the photophysical properties of a green (PTE), a yellow (PDI) and a new red (DiPhAPDI) emitting perylene derivative in solution, drop-casted films, polystyrene (PS) fibers and PS fibers embedded in poly (dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) showed that PS:dye fibers prevent aggregation to some extend and allows high Of of dyes. The Of values of PTE, PDI and DiPhAPDI were all higher than 93.0% in solution and 84.8%, 94.3% and 73.6%, respectively in PS:dye fibers. Embedding the fibers in PDMS improved the photostabilities of the dyes two folds compared to their solution phases. The prepared dye containing fibers were combined together into a single PDMS film and utilized as a frequency conversion layer on a blue LED. Fabricated samples were found to show high color rendering index (>= 90), adjustable CCT (7500 K-5000 K), and power efficiency values exceeding 2001m/W depending on the used fiber amount in mass.

    Increasing Solubility of Metal Silicates by Mixed Polymeric Antiscalants
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2019) Topçu, Gökhan; Çelik, Aslı; Kandemir, Ali; Baba, Alper; Şahin, Hasan; Demir, Mustafa Muammer
    The increase of silicate solubility is a big challenge for both hot and cold water because it reduces the deposition of metal silicates frequently observed in such systems and causes operational obstacles. The deposition of silicate coats the inner surface of the pipelines in an uncontrolled manner and reduces the harvesting of energy from brines. In this work, the solubility performance of two commercial water-soluble polymeric agents (poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)) of various molecular weights employing dosage from 25 to 100 mg/L was examined. Along with dispersant-type antiscalant, poly(acrylamide) (PAM), poly(vinylsulfonic acid, sodium salt) (PVSA), and poly(vinylphosphonic acid) (PVPA) having chelating acidic groups were employed. Metal silicate deposits were obtained artificially in the lab-scale pressurized reactor. The experimental conditions employed were quite similar to a model power plant located in Çanakkale, Turkey. The concentration of dissolved silica was increased from 130 to 420 mg/L when 100 mg/L PEG 1500 and 25 mg/L PVSA were employed as a mixture. For the atomic-level understanding of the interaction of chelating groups with metal cations, DFT calculations were performed too.

    Controlling the Distribution of Oxygen Functionalities on Go and Utilization of Pedot:pss-Go Composite as Hole Injection Layer of a Solution Processed Blue Oled
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Diker, Halide; Durmaz, Gamze Belkis; Bozkurt, Hakan; Yeşil, Fatih; Varlıklı, Canan
    Graphene oxide (GO) was synthesis by Tour method. Particle size distribution effects of raw graphite on the resulting structural, morphological, optical and electrical properties of GO samples and their poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) composites are studied for the graphite particle distributions of <150, 45–75 and 25–45 μm. It is determined that particle size of raw graphite have an impact on oxidation degree, the chemical nature of oxygen functional groups on GO and it also affects the lateral size of obtained GO. PEDOT:PSS-GO composites are utilized as hole injection layer (HIL) in a solution process blue organic light emitting diode. Presence of GO caused negative differential resistance (NDR) and NDR intensity was decreased with the decrease in lateral size of GO, increase in the graphite particle size and carboxyl% of obtained GO. All PEDOT:PSS-GO composite based devices presented better performance than the bare PEDOT:PSS based reference device. The maximum luminous and external quantum efficiency values of the device that contain HIL of PEDOT:PSS-GO(150) were more than 40% and 50% higher than that of the reference, respectively. Two folds of increase in these performance values were able to be reached with the concentration optimization of GO/150 in PEDOT:PSS.
