    Lead-Free Ferroelectric Ceramics for Energy Storage and Electrocaloric Cooling Applications
    (01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2022) Karakaya, Merve; Karakaya, Merve; Adem, Umut; Adem, Umut
    This thesis study consists of five main chapters that include an introduction about the principles and applications of ferroelectrics and four chapters on different lead-free ferroelectric ceramic systems developed for the energy storage and electrocaloric cooling applications. In the first chapter, the principles of ferroelectricity and dielectric, piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties of ferroelectrics are introduced followed by the applications considered in this thesis: Electrocaloric cooling and capacitive energy storage. In the second chapter, the effects of bismuth lithium titanate incorporation into sodium bismuth titanate-barium titanate systems on the energy storage properties have been discussed. In addition, it has been calculated that these compositions have improved energy storage properties close to the high values obtained in the literature. In the third chapter, the effect of two different manganese precursors on the probability of defect dipole formation, ferroelectric aging and resulting manganese valences of ceramics were investigated by manganese doping on barium strontium titanate base ceramics. In addition, their electrocaloric properties were investigated by indirect method. In the fourth chapter, electrocaloric properties of barium titanate - sodium bismuth titanate systems has been investigated. The increase in tetragonality by sodium bismuth titanate incorporation has been verified by Rietveld refinement and those compositions were shown to be suitable for electrocaloric applications. In the fifth chapter, a sodium bismuth titanate - potasium bismuth titanate composition which is in morphotropic phase boundary, was synthesized by templated grain growth method, and the effect of orientation on the electrocaloric effect was investigated by direct and indirect measurements.

    Data-Driven Computational Prediction and Experimental Realization of Exotic Perovskite-Related Polar Magnets
    (Nature Publishing Group, 2020) Han, Yifeng; Wu, Meixia; Gui, Churen; Zhu, Chuanhui; Sun, Zhongxiong; Zhao, Mei-Huan; Adem, Umut; Li, Man-Rong
    Rational design of technologically important exotic perovskites is hampered by the insufficient geometrical descriptors and costly and extremely high-pressure synthesis, while the big-data driven compositional identification and precise prediction entangles full understanding of the possible polymorphs and complicated multidimensional calculations of the chemical and thermodynamic parameter space. Here we present a rapid systematic data-mining-driven approach to design exotic perovskites in a high-throughput and discovery speed of the A(2)BB'O-6 family as exemplified in A(3)TeO(6). The magnetoelectric polar magnet Co3TeO6, which is theoretically recognized and experimentally realized at 5 GPa from the six possible polymorphs, undergoes two magnetic transitions at 24 and 58 K and exhibits helical spin structure accompanied by magnetoelastic and magnetoelectric coupling. We expect the applied approach will accelerate the systematic and rapid discovery of new exotic perovskites in a high-throughput manner and can be extended to arbitrary applications in other families.

    Electrocaloric Behaviour of Tape Cast and Grain Oriented Nbt-Kbt Ceramics
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Unal, Muhammet Ali; Karakaya, Merve; Irmak, Tugce; Yildirim-Ozarslan, Gokce; Avci, A. Murat; Fulanovic, Lovro; Adem, Umut
    We have investigated the effects of grain orientation and tape casting process on the electrocaloric properties of 0.82Na(0.5)Bi(0.5)TiO(3)-0.18 K0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (0.82NBT-0.18KBT) ceramics at the Morphotropic Phase Boundary (MPB), using direct and indirect measurements. We observe a larger electrocaloric response for the template-free ceramics compared to 7 and 10 wt% template containing ones, suggesting that grain orientation along rhombohedral < 100 > does not improve the electrocaloric response. Indirect measurements yielded a large adiabatic temperature change of around 3 K under an electric field of 50 kV/cm, which is significantly higher than 0.9 K reached at a lower electric field of 40 kV/cm using the direct measurement.

    Formation of Srtio3[tio2] Ceramic Composites at Low Temperatures
    (01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2021) Karataş, Esin; Adem, Umut; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar Vakıf
    Strontium titanate ceramics are materials belonging to the perovskite material group with the formula ABO3. Strontium titanate ceramics have been a preferred material in many areas, such as the electroceramics industry, due to its high dielectric constant and high chemical stability and generally produced by manufacturing processes such as solid-state synthesis, hydrothermal method, and sol-gel. SrTiO3 ceramics have been produced in the literature with different temperatures, times, and starting materials. For ceramic products, a sintering step is required after the powder production step. Traditional sintering methods, which have been used for many years, are used to densify powders with high temperatures. Recently developed low-temperature densification methods enable the sintering process to be carried out at relatively lower temperatures. For this purpose, in this thesis, SrTiO3-TiO2 ceramic composites were produced at different reaction temperatures and times using the rHLPD method, which combines powder production and sintering steps in a single process. In the studies, the reaction temperature, time, and the effect of adding mineralizer to the prepared solution for the hydrothermal reaction on the final product were investigated. The aim of the thesis is to produce SrTiO3 from TiO2 green body using the rHLPD method. In addition, the production of SrTiO3-TiO2 ceramic composites with as high mole conversion and relative density values as possible was targeted with different parameters such as reaction temperature, reaction time, and addition of NaOH to the solution. As a result of the studies carried out with different parameters, SrTiO3-TiO2 ceramic composites with a final relative density value of approximately 81 % were produced. Consequently, in the XRD and Rietveld analysis, it was seen that the main phase was SrTiO3. In addition, there was a TiO2 phase in the structure. Finally, the SrCO3 phase was not detected in the structure.

    Piezocatalytic and Piezoelectric Properties of P(vdf) and Its Copolymer/Terpolymer Films
    (01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2023) Tengizdeniz, Ceren; Adem, Umut; Genç, Aziz
    Nowadays, the release of colored organic pollutants such as Rhodamin B dye, resulting from industrial activities endanger the people, animals, and plants. Many methods have developed to destroy these harmful pollutants. Piezocatalysis, a newly used environmentally friendly method, takes advantage of the piezoelectric effect, and uses mechanical vibration to produce active species on opposite surfaces of matter for degradation of dye. In this study, piezocatalytic and piezoelectric properties of P(VDF) based homopolymer, copolymer and terpolymers were investigated. With the addition of 2nd and 3rd monomer to the homopolymer, observation of change in piezoelectric and piezocatalytic properties and removal efficiency of pollution in water, were aimed. P(VDF) homopolymer, P(VDF-TrFE) copolymers with composition of 55/45 and 50/50 mol%, and P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE) terpolymer with 62/31/7 mol% were synthesized by solution casting method. It was observed that the 2nd and 3rd monomer added to the homopolymer enhanced the piezoelectric properties and strain characteristics of the polymers. Maximum polarization and strain of terpolymer was observed as 11 µC/cm2 and 5.6 %, respectively. Due to the increase in piezoelectricity, a noticeable increase in piezocatalytic properties was observed. Terpolymer exhibited the highest and most efficient piezoelectric and piezocatalytic performance. P(VDF) homopolymer was reached 27% dye degradation efficiency. While copolymers with mol% 55/45 and 50/50, dye degradation efficiencies were 40% and 47%, respectively, terpolymer efficiency was 54%. From the dielectric measurements, within the transition region (49 mol% ≤ CVDF ≤ 55 mol%) of P(VDF-TrFE), both normal-ferroelectric and relaxor characteristics were observed. Terpolymer showed relaxor properties as expected.

    Ferroelectric Ceramic Polymer Nanocomposites for Electrocaloric Cooling Applications
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2020) Tokkan, Melike; Adem, Umut
    In this study, nanocomposites consisting of the polymer matrix and nanometer sized ceramic supporting phase were produced for electrocaloric cooling applications, which show potential as alternative refrigerant system. The aim of this study was to be able to estimate adiabatic temperature change (?T) of the composites by measuring saturated hysteresis loops for the composite materials that allow accurate calculation of the ?T using the indirect method based on Maxwell's relations. Ba0.94Ca0.06Ti0.925Sn0.075O3(BCST) composition ceramic was used as the supporting phase of the composite and P(VDF-TrFE)(55-45) co-polymer was chosen as the matrix. The ceramics were synthesized, as pellets by conventional solid-state method. Ferroelectric nanocomposites were manufactured by solution casting method by adding 5, 7.5, 10 volume percent of the ceramic powder, which was obtained by grinding the pellets by using ball milling. Phase analysis of all materials done using X-ray Diffraction method. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy was used to clearly understand the phase structure of polymer. Scanning electron microscopy was used for understand the distribution of ceramic particles in polymer matrix. Dielectric constant-dielectric loss and ferroelectric hysteresis loops were measured as a function of temperature for the electrical characterization of the materials. Adiabatic temperature change under electric field (?T) of the materials were calculated based on Maxwell's equations indirectly using the temperature dependent electrical polarization data. The dielectric constant and electrical polarization of the polymer matrix have increased with the addition of ceramic particles. The hysteresis loops of thebn pure polymer and composites were saturated, therefore the temperature change can be calculated accurately with the indirect method. Maximum ?T was calculated on the composite having 10vol% ceramic particles. (6.964K at 900 kV/cm).

    Gümüş nanoteller, mükemmel elektriksel iletkenlikleri, plazmonik davranışları ve esneklikleriyle bilinir ve bu nedenle çeşitli gelişmiş uygulamalar için oldukça uygundurlar. Bu tez çalışması, gümüş nanotellerin hem çevre dostu sentezini, hem de biyomedikal uygulamalarda gelişmiş manyetik nanoyapılar için bir şablon olarak ikili rolünü araştırmıştır. Çalışmanın ilk bölümünde, geçiş metali tuzlarının gümüş nanotellerin morfolojisini kontrol etmedeki etkisi araştırılmıştır. Çevre dostu indirgeyici madde olarak gliserolün kullanılması, belirli geçiş metali tuzlarının nanotel morfolojisini önemli ölçüde etkileyebileceğini göstermiştir. Deneysel koşulların dikkatli bir şekilde optimize edilmesiyle, gümüş nanoteller yüksek en boy oranlarıyla başarıyla sentezlenmiştir. Bu yeşil sentez yaklaşımı, esnek elektronik, sensörler ve daha fazlası için nanoteller üretmek için sürdürülebilir bir yol sağlar. İkinci bölümde, gümüş nanoteller, demir oksit nanoküplerin manyetik hipertermi performansını artırmak için yüksek yüzey alanlı bir şablon olarak sunulmuştur. Demir oksit nanoküpler, manyetik anizotropilerini artırmak için gümüş nanotellerin yüzeyine dekore edilmiştir. Manyetik karakterizasyon ve özgül emilim oranı analizi, bu yapının uygulanan manyetik alan koşullarına bağlı olarak değişen manyetik alanlar altında ısıtma verimliliğini artırdığını ve tek başına demir oksit nanopartiküllerinden daha üstün performans gösterdiğini ortaya koymaktadır.

    Novel Injectable Calcium-Magnesium Phosphate Cement-Based Composites With Piezoelectric Properties: Advancements in Bone Regeneration Applications
    (Springer, 2024) Sakar, Neslihan; Albayrak, Aylin Ziylan; Karakaya, Merve; Adem, Umut; Tansel, Tunay
    Designing a novel injectable bone cement is an important approach to the success of bone healing in minimally invasive surgeries. As natural bone has a piezoelectric property, which is crucial in bone regeneration, this study focused on the development of a novel injectable composite bone cement with piezoelectric properties. For the composite composition, calcium and zirconium doped barium titanate (BCZT) was used for its piezoelectric property, while calcium phosphate and magnesium phosphate cement (CMPC) were preferred for its bone-like properties. In this framework, first BCZT, CMPC, and their composites were prepared, and their phase structures, particle size distributions, and piezoelectric and dielectric properties were investigated. Then, the composite bone cements were prepared by mixing CMPC with BCZT in three different ratios (20%, 30%, and 40%). Next, polysorbate 80 solution was added to the cement mixtures to prepare the injectable pastes. Finally, injectability, setting time, and compressive strength of the composites were assessed. As a result, the composite bone cement containing 30% BCZT has the potential to be used as an injectable bone cement in invasive orthopedic surgery.

    Production and Characterization of Porous Ceramics for Aircraft Arresting Systems
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2019) Çapraz, Furkan; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar Vakıf; Adem, Umut
    Despite developments in aviation, accidents still occur and lead to loss of lives. Technical or environmental factors may cause overrun accidents. In the case of aircraft that fail to stop along the runway distance during take-off or landing, such accidents are called overrun. Aircraft stopping systems (AAS) are passive safety systems used to prevent to take damage of passengers and aircraft during overrun. In the literature, foamed concrete was generally used as the AAS material. However, some studies have also been carried out on other materials that may be used as the AAS material. In present thesis, the aim was to produce porous calcium silicates instead of foamed concrete in AAS. The slip casting method was used to produce porous calcium silicate monoliths. The main components used in the manufacturing of porous wollastonite were xonotlite (as a matrix material), polymethyl methacrylate (as a sacrificial pore former, PMMA), polyvinyl alcohol (as a binder, PVA), Dolapix CE 64 (as a dispersing agent) and distilled water. Three different xonotlite ratios (8, 9 and 10% by volume) have been studied with four different xonotlite/ PMMA ratios (1, 0.82, 0.54 and 0.33 by volume). Also, specimens without PMMA were produced for each xonotlite ratio. The suspensions were stirred for 3 h at 750 rpm and then casted into the gypsum mold. The samples which were dried at room temperature (RT) were heat treated at 1000 oC. After production step microstructural, structural and mechanical analysis o the porous calcium silicates were carried out. Cold Crushing Strength (CCS) tests were performed out for determining mechanical properties. CCS values of the porous monolith parts ranged between 1376 kPa and 53.2 kPa depending on xonotlite/ PMMA ratios. In addition, the porosity values ranged from 93.38 to 87.82%. The resuts showed that some of these porous calcium silicate monoliths are suitable to use instead of foamed concrete as the AAS material.
