Few layer graphene is attractive due to its extraordinary electronic and optical properties, which are strongly influenced by the orientation between the layers called as stacking sequence. It is challenging to synthesize high quality large size single or multi layer graphene crystals on the metal catalyst using chemical vapor deposition technique. The present work is about synthesis of few layer graphene grains on platinum foil using ambient pressure chemical together vapor deposition technique. The main focus is how the different grains coalesced and maintain the stacking sequence. Different characterization techniques are used to analyze the grains when they are in the process of merging to make a bigger grain. Scanning electron microscopy clearly shows different stacking sequences and merging of different nucleation sites of different grains. Interestingly, different stacking sequences are observed during the process of coalescence of grains. Raman spectroscopy gives accurate information about the number of layers and their stacking sequence. We observed Bernal AB and twisted layer stacking in the grains when they were combining together to grow into a bigger size. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) value of 2D Raman peaks appeared in the range of 52-69 cm(-1) which shows an increase from the value of single layer graphene (30.18 cm(-1)) and identifies Bernal stacking in grains. For twisted stacking FWHM values lie in the range of 19-32 cm(-1).

Oscillations in dc driven barrier discharges: Numerical solutions, stability analysis, and phase diagram
SIJACIC, DD; EBERT, U; Rafatov, İsmail (American Physical Society (APS), 2005-06-01)
A short gas-discharge layer sandwiched with a semiconductor layer between planar electrodes shows a variety of spatiotemporal patterns. We focus on the spontaneous temporal oscillations that occur while a dc voltage is applied and while the system stays spatially homogeneous; the results for these oscillations apply equally to a planar discharge in series with any resistor with capacitance. We define the minimal model, identify its independent dimensionless parameters, and then present the results of the fu...
The electronic structure of capped and uncapped CdS nanoparticles
Ercan, Ilke; Katırcıoğlu, Şenay (American Scientific Publishers, 2008-02-01)
The electronic structure of spherical CdmSn nanoparticles having zinc-blende symmetry and the diameters of up to around 3 nm has been studied by Hartree-Fock theory to find out the effect of the cluster size on the optical energy gap between HOMO and LUMO. The effect of encapsulation on the electronic structure has been also investigated for CdS4 and Cd13S4 clusters embedded in SiO2 matrix and sodalite cage by Hartree-Fock theory. It was found that the energy gap of CdS nanoparticles can be regulated by bot...
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy via gold nanostars
Nalbant Esentürk, Emren (Wiley, 2009-01-01)
Anisotropic metallic nanoparticles (NPs) have unique optical properties, which lend them to applications such as surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy. Star-shaped gold (Au) NPs were prepared in aqueous solutions by the seed-mediated growth method and tested for Raman enhancement using 2-mercaptopyridine (2-MPy) and crystal violet (CV) probing molecules. For both molecules, the SERS activity of the nanostars was notably stronger than that of the spherical Au NPs of similar size. The Raman en...
Correlation between optical path modulations and transmittance spectra of a-Si : H thin films
Akaoglu, B; Atilgan, I; Katircioglu, B (The Optical Society, 2000-04-01)
The optical constants of plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor-deposited amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin film upon a transparent substrate are determined within the UV-visible region by measurement of the transmittance spectrum. Apart from thickness irregularities, the effects of vertical film inhomogeneities (refractive-index distribution) on the spectrum are discussed. In this respect, although consideration of any possible variation in thickness of the film within the area illuminated by the probe beam is suffi...
Bioactive surface design based on conducting polymers and applications to biosensors
Erdem, Rengin; Özen, Can; Yağcı Acar, Havva Funda; Department of Biotechnology (2012)
Quantum dots are fluorescent semiconductor nanocrystals that have unique optical properties such as high quantum yield and photostability. These nanoparticles are superior to organic dyes and fluorescent proteins in many aspects and therefore show great potential for both in vivo and in vitro imaging and drug delivery applications. However, cytototoxicity is still one of the major problems associated with their biological applications. The aim of this study is in vitro characterization and assessment of bio...
