Taking advantage of the favorable Gibbs free energies, atomic layer deposited (ALD) aluminum oxide (Al2O3) was used as a novel approach for passivation of type II InAs/GaSb superlattice (SL) midwave infrared (MWIR) single pixel photodetectors in a self cleaning process (lambda(cut-off) similar to 5.1 mu m). Al2O3 passivated and unpassivated diodes were compared for their electrical and optical performances. For passivated diodes, the dark current density was improved by an order of magnitude at 77 K. The zero bias responsivity and detectivity was 1.33 A/W and 1.9 x 10(13) Jones, respectively at 4 mu m and 77 K. Quantum efficiency (QE) was determined as %41 for these detectors. This conformal passivation technique is promising for focal plane array (FPA) applications. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics.

Formation and characterization of infrared absorbing copper oxide surfaces Arslan, Burcu; Erdogan, Metehan; Karakaya, İshak (2017-04-30) Copper oxide formation has been investigated to combine the advantages of producing different size and shapes of coatings that possess good light absorbing properties. An aqueous blackening solution was investigated and optimum composition was found as 2.5 M NaOH and 0.225 M NaClO to form velvet copper oxide films. A two-step oxidation mechanism was proposed for the blackening process by carefully examining the experimental results. Formation of Cu2O was observed until the entire copper surface was covered ...
Photocatalytic oxidation of NOX over TiO₂ containing cement based materials Bayar, İbrahim; Üner, Deniz; Department of Chemical Engineering (2013) The scope of this thesis was to construct a NOX analysis test system based on ISO-22197:2007(E) standard that can monitor NO oxidation ability of photocatalytically active surfaces. The activity of cement based materials containing TiO2 on photocatalytic oxidation of NOX was observed in this test system. In addition, the experimental validity of the ISO-22197:2007(E) standard was verified. Improvements and modifications are recommended. The method was tested on TiO2 samples coated on the glass, coated on th...
Epoxidation of Ethylene by Silver Oxide (Ag2O) Cluster: A Density Functional Theory Study Fellah, Mehmet Ferdi; van Santen, Rutger A.; Önal, Işık (2011-06-01) Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were employed to study epoxidation of ethylene on a [Ag14O9] cluster model representing silver oxide (001) surface. Theoretical results obtained in this study showed that formation paths of acetaldehyde and vinyl alcohol have higher activation barriers than that of ethylene oxide formation path on silver oxide (35 and 35 vs. 20 kcal/mol). Formation of the ethylene oxometallocycle intermediate is found to have a low probability on Ag2O(001) surface. The essential ...
Cobalt Oxide Nanoflakes on Single Walled Carbon Nanotube Thin Films for Supercapacitor Electrodes Durukan, Mete Batuhan; Ünalan, Hüsnü Emrah (2016-12-20) We demonstrate a simple and cost-effective approach for the fabrication of cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanoflakes on single walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) thin films for supercapacitor electrodes. SWNT thin films are prepared by vacuum filtration and consecutive stamping method onto which cobalt hydroxide (Co(OH)(2)) nanoflakes are electrodeposited and annealed to obtain Co3O4. A gravimetric capacitance of 313.9 F.g(-1), corresponding to an areal specific capacitance of 70.5 mF.cm(-2) is obtained from the fabricate...
Electronic properties of transition metal oxides Mete, Ersen; Ellialtıoğlu, Süleyman Şinasi; Department of Physics (2003) Transition metal oxides constitute a large class of materials with variety of very interesting properties and important technological utility. A subset with perovskite structure has been the subject matter of the current theoretical investigation with an emphasis on their electronic and structural behavior. An analytical and a computational method are used to calculate physical entities like lattice parameters, bulk moduli, band structures, density of electronic states and charge density distributions for v...
