In this study, poly(D, L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) films were prepared by solvent casting method and the surfaces of the films were modified by application of oxygen plasma. A radio frequency (RF) generator working at 13.56 MHz was used to create plasma, and powers at different levels changing between 20 and 300 W were applied. The variations in chemistry, topography and surface free energy (SFE) of the films were investigated by electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and goniometer, respectively. The cell-material interactions of the modified samples were evaluated by cell culture tests using 3T3 fibroblast cell line.

Effect of oxygen flow rate on the low temperature deposition of titanium monoxide thin films via electron beam evaporation Cosar, Mustafa Burak; Icli, Kerem Cagatay; Ozenbas, Macit (American Vacuum Society, 2019-05-01) In this study, titanium monoxide thin films were evaporated by an electron beam source under different oxygen atmospheres at deposition temperatures not exceeding 80 degrees C. Deposition of thin films at low temperatures is a prerequisite for heat sensitive substrates. XRD results showed that crystallinity of titanium monoxide is achieved without the requirement of high temperature annealing. When oxygen is introduced into the coating chamber, a titanium peak is formed at exactly the Ti+2 position together...
Effects of glass substrate coated by different-content buffer layer on the quality of poly-Si thin films Karaman, Mehmet; ÖZMEN, ÖZGE TÜZÜN; Sedani, Salar Habibpur; Ozkol, Engin; Turan, Raşit (Wiley, 2016-12-01) In this work, polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin films were fabricated by aluminum induced crystallization (AIC) technique. SiNx, deposited as a function of NH3/SiH4 ratio, and AZO (Al-doped ZnO) films on glass were used as a buffer layer between glass and Si film. The effect of buffer layer content on the crystallinity of poly-Si thin films was studied by Raman analysis which shows that fully crystallization without stress was achieved for all samples. Moreover, the preferred crystalline orientation an...
Influence of thermal annealing on microstructural, morphological, optical properties and surface electronic structure of copper oxide thin films AKSOY, FUNDA; AKGÜL, GÜVENÇ; Yıldırım, Nuray; Ünalan, Hüsnü Emrah; Turan, Raşit (Elsevier BV, 2014-10-15) In this study, effect of the post-deposition thermal annealing on copper oxide thin films has been systemically investigated. The copper oxide thin films were chemically deposited on glass substrates by spin-coating. Samples were annealed in air at atmospheric pressure and at different temperatures ranging from 200 to 600 degrees C. The microstructural, morphological, optical properties and surface electronic structure of the thin films have been studied by diagnostic techniques such as X-ray diffraction (X...
Production and characterization of layer by layer sputtered single-phase AgInSe2 thin film by thermal selenization KALELİ, Murat; ÇOLAKOĞLU, TAHİR; Parlak, Mehmet (Elsevier BV, 2013-12-01) In this study highly stoichiometric and monophase AgInSe2 thin films were prepared by selenization of Ag-InSe precursors and the effect of the annealing temperature on the structural, electrical and optical properties have been investigated. The Se incorporation during selenization process as a function of temperature and the compositions of the samples were determined by energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX). As prepared and selenized films were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning elect...
Effect of aluminum thickness and etching time of aluminum induced texturing process on soda lime glass substrates for thin solar cell applications Ünal, Mustafa; Gunoven, Mete; Sokmen, Ilkay; Tankut, Aydin; Turan, Raşit (2015-04-29) In this study, aluminum induced texturing (AIT) technique is used to increase light absorption in thin film by way of increasing the portion of the diffuse transmitted light (haze). For this purpose, various AIT process parameters such as starting aluminum thicknesses, annealing temperature and time, etching time, etchant's concentrations, and temperature of etching are known to affect the final texture. We have investigated the effect of aluminum thickness and etching time on AIT process while keeping the ...
