In x-ray photoemission measurements, differential charging causes the measured binding energy difference between the Si 2p of the oxide and the silicon substrate to vary nonlinearly as a function of the applied external do voltage stress, which controls the low-energy electrons going into and out of the sample. This nonlinear variation is similar to the system where a gold metal strip is connected to the same voltage stress through an external 10 Mohm series resistor and determined again by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). We utilize this functional resemblance to determine the resistance of the 4 nm SiO2 layer on a silicon substrate as 8 Mohm. In addition, by performing time-dependent XPS measurements (achieved by pulsing the voltage stress), we determine the time constant for charging/discharging of the same system as 2.0 s. Using an equivalent circuit, consisting of a gold metal strip connected through a 10 Mohm series resistor and a 56 nF parallel capacitor, and performing time-dependent XPS measurements, we also determine the time constant as 0.50 s in agreement with the expected value (0.56 s). Using this time constant and the resistance (8.0 Mohm), we can determined the capacitance of the 4 nm SiO2 layer as 250 nF in excellent agreement with the calculated value. Hence, by application of external do and pulsed voltage stresses, an x-ray photoelectron spectrometer is turned into a tool for extracting electrical parameters of surface structures in a noncontact fashion.

Tuning the electron beam evaporation parameters for the production of hole and electron transport layers for perovskite solar cells
Coşar, Mustafa Bura; Özenbaş, Ahmet Macit; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2019)
This study evaluates the use of electron beam evaporation technique for the deposition of electron and hole transport layers for perovskite solar cells where cell productions were performed in n-i-p structure. NiO and TiO layers were studied for hole transport layer and TiO2 and Nb2O5 layers were deposited for electron transport purposes. To optimize the suitable evaporation parameters for efficient perovskite cell production, single layers of each material were deposited at different conditions of oxygen f...
Differential charging in SiO2/Si system as determined by XPS
Karadas, F; Ertaş, Gülay; Suzer, S (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2004-01-29)
The Si2p binding and the Si-KLL kinetic energy difference between the SiO2 layer and Si substrate is shown to be influenced by application of external voltage bias to the sample holder due to the differential charging as was already reported earlier (Ulgut, B.; Suzer, S. J. Phys. Chem. B 2003, 107, 2939). The cause of this bias induced (physical)-shift is now proven to be mostly due to partial neutralization by the stray electrons within the vacuum system by (i) introducing additional stray electrons via a ...
X-ray-induced production of gold nanoparticles on a SiO2/Si system and in a poly(methyl methacrylate) matrix
Karadas, F; Ertaş, Gülay; Ozkaraoglu, E; Suzer, S (2005-01-04)
Prolonged exposure to X-rays of HAuCl4 deposited from an aqueous solution onto a SiO2/Si substrate or into a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) matrix induces reduction of the Au3+ ions to Au-0 and subsequent nucleation to gold nanoclusters as recorded by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The corresponding major oxidation product is determined as chlorine {HAuCl4(ads) + X-rays --> Au(ads) + (3/2)Cl-2(ads) + HCl(ads)}, which is initially adsorbed onto the surface but eventually diffuses out of the system into ...
Analysis of Field-Effect Passivation in Textured and Undiffused Silicon Surfaces
Turkay, Deniz; Koroglu, Cagil; Yerci, Selçuk (2019-09-13)
In this work, we present a numerical analysis comparing the field-effect passivation provided by fixed dielectric charges on planar and textured undiffused silicon surfaces. We focus particularly on the ratio of effective surface recombination velocities (S-eff) of planar and textured surfaces (sigma=S-eff,S-textured/S-eff,S-planar) utilizing the same fixed dielectric charge density (Q(f)) under the same injection conditions. To ensure a difference between the space-charge region profiles of textured and pl...
A new baseline for the Newtonian thermal analysis of casting: two-capacitive system baseline Modeling the effects of the thermal capacity of mold
Erbas, Kadir Can (2015-01-01)
Computer-aided cooling curve thermal analysis for the casting process is usually applied to predict the latent heat of transformation and the solid fraction. In this study, one of the important limitations of the Newtonian thermal analysis for the prediction of the latent heat was determined as the disregard of the thermal capacity of mold. Therefore, a new baseline technique, two-capacitive system baseline (TCSBL), was developed by taking the thermal capacity of the mold into account. This new method was m...
