Versatile and intriguing solution-based processes are utilized to synthesize nanostructured materials for device applications to reduce material production and device fabrication costs. This study presents results on the fabrication and characterization of copper oxide ( CuO) coated cobalt-doped zinc oxide nanowires ( Co-doped ZnO NWs)-based heterojunction diodes prepared by a two-step synthesis route through combined hydrothermal growth and sol-gel spin coating. Highly dense, well-ordered, undoped, and Co-doped ZnO NWs were successfully grown by hydrothermal method. Complementary CuO thin films were synthesized by sol-gel method and subsequently coated onto both undoped and Co-doped ZnO NWs through spin-coating technique. Enhanced diode properties with a rectification ratio of 10(3) at +/-2 V and an ideality factor of n = 2.4 ( in dark) were obtained for Co-doped ZnO NWs-based heterojunction diodes. The obtained results demonstrated that the investigated heterojunction diode structure fabricated by facile and cost-effective solution-based processes can be a promising candidate for the next generation optoelectronic devices.

Design, syntheses and structure-property relationships of benzazole and isoindigo comprising conducting polymers/ Göker, Seza; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Department of Chemistry (2019) Donor–acceptor (D–A) conjugated polymers have been widely used for potential applications such as organic light emitting diodes, solar cells, electrochromic devices and organic field effect transistors. Benzazole comprising conducting polymers are popular for the last few decades since they can be used as low-band-gap donor materials because of their strong intramolecular charge transfer characteristics and excellent photovoltaic performances. Strong electron-donating and withdrawing building blocks are nec...
Quantum Transport Mode in Graphene Nanoribbon Based Transistor Hedayat, Sayed Norollah; Ahmadi, Mohammad Taghi; Sedghi, Hassan; Goudarzi, Hadi; Moradi, Shahram (American Scientific Publishers, 2017-09-01) Graphene has incredible carrier transport property with high application opportunity at single molecule level, which composes it as promising materials on nano electronic application. In order to develop the new device such as graphene nanoribbon transistor, Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistor (CNTFET) and nanowire based devices, it is essential to investigate the quantum limit in low dimensional systems. In this paper transmission coefficient of the schottky structure in the graphene based transistor i...
Multilayer graphene growth on polar dielectric substrates using chemical vapour deposition KARAMAT, SHUMAİLA; Celik, K.; Zaman, S. Shah; Oral, Ahmet (Elsevier BV, 2018-06-01) High quality of graphene is necessary for its applications at industrial scale production. The most convenient way is its direct growth on dielectrics which avoid the transfer route of graphene from metal to dielectric substrate usually followed by graphene community. The choice of a suitable dielectric for the gate material which can replace silicon dioxide (SiO2) is in high demand. Various properties like permittivity, thermodynamic stability, film morphology, interface quality, bandgap and band alignment...
Characterization of novel materials for fused filament fabrication AL-DUAIS, ABDULLAH ABDULRAHMAN NAJI; Özerinç, Sezer; Kazanç Özerinç, Feyza; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2021-6-24) Fused filament fabrication (FFF) is a polymer additive manufacturing technology that is suitable for a wide range of applications due to its low cost and ease of use. This thesis investigated two types of novel materials for FFF use. First, a foaming PLA filament is considered and the mechanical properties of 3D printed specimens using this filament is characterized. The results show that the strength, modulus and density of the foaming PLA can be tuned over a wide range of values by varying FFF process par...
Investigation of material properties of magnetron sputtered CuAg-In-Se thin films Güllü, Hasan Hüseyin; Parlak, Mehmet (null; 2016-09-23) Thin films of copper based chalcopyrite absorber materials are attracting the attention of many researchers because of their favorable optoelectronic properties and good stability makes them suitable for photovoltaic and optoelectronic device applications. These compounds are particularly suitable for making p-n hetero-junctions with the II-VI compounds. Therefore, the utilization of I-III-VI2 group of chalcopyrite semiconductors has been reported in the literature for application in thin film solar cells. ...
