Titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) thin films, with and without silver (Ag), were prepared on float glass via sol-gel processing. The float glass substrates were pre-coated with a silica-barrier layer prior to the deposition of TiO(2)-based thin films. Silver nanoparticle incorporation into the TiO(2) matrix was achieved by thermal reduction of Ag ions dissolved in a titanium-n-butoxide (Ti[O(CH(2))(3)CH(3)](4)) based sol during calcination in air at 250, 450 and 650 A degrees C. Thin films were characterized using glancing incidence X-ray diffraction, UV-visible spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. The effects of Ag concentration and calcination temperature on microstructure and on chemical and physical properties of the thin films have been reported. The size and chemical state of Ag particles, as well as the phase characteristics of the titania matrix were strongly influenced by Ag concentration and calcination temperature. Results from this study can be utilized in both processing and structure-functional property optimization of sol-gel based Ag-TiO(2) thin films by aqueous routes.

Sol-gel derived silver-incorporated titania thin films on glass: bactericidal and photocatalytic activity
Akgun, Betul Akkopru; Wren, Anthony W.; Durucan, Caner; Towler, Mark R.; Mellott, Nathan P. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2011-08-01)
Titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) and silver-containing TiO(2) (Ag-TiO(2)) thin films were prepared on silica pre-coated float glass substrates by a sol-gel spin coating method. The bactericidal activity of the films was determined against Staphylococcus epidermidis under natural and ultraviolet (UV) illumination by four complementary methods; (1) the disk diffusion assay, (2) UV-induced bactericidal test, (3) qualitative Ag ion release in bacteria inoculated agar media and (4) surface topographical examination by ...
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...
Effects of tail states on the conduction mechanisms in silicon carbide thin films with high carbon content
SEL, KIVANÇ; AKAOĞLU, BARIŞ; Atilgan, Ismail; Katircioglu, Bayram (Elsevier BV, 2011-03-01)
Hydrogenated amorphous silicon carbide (a-SiCx:H) films of different carbon content (x) were deposited by radio frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) system. Apart from the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and UV-Visible transmission analyses, the resistivity measurements between 293 K and 450 K were emphasized to assess the eventual transport mechanisms. The film resistivities are unexpectedly found relatively low, especially for high carbon content. In the frame of exclusive ba...
Effect of carbon fiber amount and length on flame retardant and mechanical properties of intumescent polypropylene composites
ATABEK SAVAŞ, Lemiye; Mutlu, Aysenur; Dike, Ali Sinan; Tayfun, Umit; DOĞAN, Mehmet (SAGE Publications, 2018-02-01)
The effects of carbon fiber amount and length were studied on the flame retardant, thermal, and mechanical properties of the intumescent polypropylene composites. The flame retardant properties of the intumescent polypropylene-based composites were investigated using limiting oxygen index, vertical burning test (UL-94), and mass loss calorimeter. The mechanical properties of the composites were studied using tensile test and dynamic mechanical analysis. According to the flammability tests results, the antag...
Effect of composite preparation techniques on electrical and mechanical properties and morphology of nylon 6 based conductive polymer composites
Koysuren, Ozcan; Yesil, Sertan; Bayram, Göknur (Wiley, 2006-11-05)
Nylon 6/carbon black conductive composites were prepared using two different methods, masterbatch dilution and melt mixing. Their effect on the size and distribution of carbon black agglomerates in the matrix was studied in terms of electrical and mechanical properties and morphology. The electrical resistivity of composites prepared by both methods decreased with increasing filler composition. The electrical resistivity of the diluted masterbatch composites and the melt mixed composites was reduced from th...
