Structural variations of SiOx matrix have been studied with Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) during the formation of Si and Ge nanocrystal. Two frequently used methods, magnetron sputtering and ion implantation have been employed to form SiOx matrix containing excess Si and Ge. The Si-O-Si stretching mode has been deconvoluted to monitor the evolution of SiOx films during the annealing process. The integrated area and the shift in the SiOx peak positions are found to be well correlated with the change of the film stoichiometry and nanocrystal formation. It is shown that the nonstoichiometric SiOx matrix turns into stoichiometric SiO2 as the excess Si and Ge atoms precipitate to form nanocrystals. This process takes place at much lower temperatures for Ge than Si for both ion implantation and magnetron sputtering. FTIR technique is shown to be useful to study the matrix hosting nanocrystals to monitor nanocrystal formation.

Evolution of SiO2 matrix during the formal-ion of Ge and Si nanocrystals by ion implantation
SERİNCAN, UĞUR; Yerci, Selçuk; KULAKCI, MUSTAFA; Turan, Raşit (2005-10-01)
Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) has been employed to observe and understand structural variations in SiO2 matrix during the formation of Ge and Si nanocrystals by ion implantation as a function of processing parameters. The Si-O asymmetric stretching peak of absorption spectra were used to monitor the evolution of SiOx (x < 2) films during the annealing process. It was shown that the recovery process in Si-O network is quite different in Ge and Si implanted samples and the deformation cause...
Using artificially generated spectral data to improve protein secondary structure prediction from Fourier transform infrared spectra of proteins
Severcan, M; Haris, PI; Severcan, Feride (Elsevier BV, 2004-09-15)
Secondary structures of proteins have been predicted using neural networks from their Fourier transform infrared spectra. To improve the generalization ability of the neural networks, the training data set has been artificially increased by linear interpolation. The leave-one-out approach has been used to demonstrate the applicability of the method. Bayesian regularization has been used to train the neural networks and the predictions have been further improved by the maximum-likelihood estimation method. T...
Formation of Ge nanocrystals in Al2O3 matrix
Yerci, Selçuk; SERİNCAN, UĞUR; Turan, Raşit; GOLAN, YUVAL (2008-02-01)
Ge nanocrystals were formed in Al2O3 matrix by implantation of Ge ions into sapphire (alpha-Al2O3) substrates and subsequent annealing. Diagnostic techniques, Raman spectroscopy, XRD, TEM, EDS, and SAED were employed to monitor and study formation of Ge nanocrystals and their evolution during heat treatments. TEM and EDS analysis revealed the diffusion of Ge ions into the substrate during annealing process. While Ge nanocrystals with mean sizes of 15 nm were observed in the heavily implanted region small na...
Preparation and thermal characterization of poly(2-vinylpyridine) copolymers coordinated to Cr nanoparticles
Öztürk, Yurdagül; Kayran, Ceyhan; Hacaloğlu, Jale (2015-06-01)
In this study, polystyrene-block-poly(2-vinylpyridine), PS-b-P2VP, polyisoprene-block-poly(2-vinylpyridne), PI-b-P2VP and poly(methyl metacrylate)-block-poly(2-vinylpyridine), PMMA-b-P2VP, coordinated to Cr metal were synthesized and characterized by Fourier transform infrared, transmission electron microscopy and direct pyrolysis mass spectrometry techniques. Both thermal degradation mechanism and thermal stability of P2VP blocks were affected by the coordination of Cr nanoparticles to nitrogen of pyridine...
Observation of Oscillatory Surface Reactions of Riboflavin, Trolox, and Singlet Oxygen Using Single Carbon Nanotube Fluorescence Spectroscopy
Sen, Fatih; Boghossian, Ardemis A.; Sen, Selda; Ulissi, Zachary W.; Zhang, Jingqing; Strano, Michael S. (2012-12-01)
Single-molecule fluorescent microscopy allows semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) to detect the adsorption and desorption of single adsorbate molecules as a stochastic modulation of emission intensity. In this study, we identify and assign the signature of the complex decomposition and reaction pathways of riboflavin in the presence of the free radical scavenger Trolox using DNA-wrapped SWCNT sensors dispersed onto an aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) coated surface. SWCNT emission is qu...
