Synthesis of new electroactive monomers are highly desired since these compounds can be utilized as active layers in many device applications such as ECDs, LEDs and solar cells. EDOT (3,4 ethylenedioxythiophene) and thiophene bearing polymers were also proven to be excellent candidates as electrochromic materials. Benzotriazole can be coupled to EDOT and thiophene to yield materials that can be polymerized to give donor acceptor type polymers. These materials are promising candidates as components in fast switching polymeric electrochromic devices. Donor acceptor type materials; 2-dodecyl-4-(2,3-dihydrothieno [3,4- b][1,4]dioxin-5-yl)-7- (2,3-dihydrothieno[3,4-b] [1,4] dioxin-7-yl)-2H-benzo [d][1,2,3]triazole and 2-dodecyl-4,7-di(thiophen-2-yl)-2H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazole were synthesized via N-alkylation, bromination, stannylation and Stille coupling reactions. Electrochemical and electrochromic properties of the polymers were examined in detail.

Modification of TiO2 and NiO charge selective mesoporous layers using excessive Y and Li additions for carbon based perovskite solar cells Icli, Kerem Cagatay; Özenbaş, Ahmet Macit (2021-09-15) Carbon based perovskite solar cells are rapidly emerging as promising photovoltaic devices, combining low cost production and prolonged device operation, due to the exclusion of polymeric conductors and integration of highly durable metal oxide charge selective layers. Modification of metal oxide mesoporous layers via element additions and enhancement of electrical conductivity is a major strategy for reduced internal resistances inside the cell. This work investigates the effect of excessive Y and Li addit...
Electrochromic properties of multicolored novel polymer synthesized via combination of benzotriazole and N-functionalized 2,5-di(2-thienyl)-1H-pyrrole units Rende, Eda; Kilic, Cihan E.; Udum, Yasemin Arslan; Toffoli, Daniele; Toppare, Levent Kamil (2014-08-20) Synthesis of new conducting polymers is desired since their electrochemical and optical properties enable them to be used as active layers in many device applications. Benzotriazole and N-functionalized 2,5-di(2-thienyl)-1H-pyrrole (SNS Series) containing polymers showed very promising results as electrochromic materials. In order to observe the effect of the combination of these two units, three new monomers; 2-(6-(2,5-bis(5-methylthiophen-2-yl)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)hexyl)-4,7-di(thiophen-2-yl)-2H benzo[d][1,2,3...
Synthesis of g-C3N4/TiO2 heterojunction composites with enhanced solar light photocatalytic activity Gündoğmuş, Peli; Öztürk, Abdullah; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2020) The solar light sensitive g-C3N4/TiO2 composites containing various amounts of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and titania (TiO2) were prepared by the hydrothermal and sol-gel processes for photocatalytic applications. Hydrothermally derived g-C3N4/TiO2 composites were subjected to regulated heat treatments at temperatures ranging from 350 to 500 oC for 1 h to improve their photocatalytic efficiency. Particle size, crystal structure, morphology, and optical properties of the g-C3N4/TiO2 nanocomposites wer...
Preparation and photocatalytic activity of g-C3N4/TiO2 heterojunctions under solar light illumination Gundogmus, Pelin; PARK, JONGEE; Öztürk, Abdullah (Elsevier BV, 2020-09-01) The solar light sensitive g-C3N4/TiO2 heterojunction photocatalysts containing 20, 50, 80, and 90 wt% graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) were prepared by growing Titania (TiO2) nanoparticles on the surfaces of g-C3N4 particles via one step hydrothermal process. The hydrothermal reactions were allowed to take place at 110 degrees C at autogenous pressure for 1 h. Raman spectroscopy analyses confirmed that an interface developed between the surfaces of TiO2 and g-C3N4 nanoparticles. The photocatalyst containin...
Synthesis and characterization of semiconductor thin films for photovoltaic applications Tezel, Tamer; Küçükyavuz, Zuhal; Department of Chemistry (2009) Cadmium sulfide (CdS) thin films are very attractive materials due to their tunable optical properties and potential applications in not only photovoltaic devices but also in electronics, bio-labeling and fluorescence imaging. Recently, there is a great interest in flexible photovoltaic devices due to their unique properties such as very low weight, mechanical durability and large area applications. Organic semiconductors and their heterojunctions with inorganic materials are the most promising candidates f...
