Titanium oxide (TiO2) film was deposited by rectification factor (RF) magnetron sputtering technique on glass substrates and p-Si (111) wafers to fabricate n-TiO2/p-Si heterojunction devices for the investigation of material and device properties, respectively. The structural, surface morphology, optical and electrical properties of TiO(2 )film were characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-visual (UV-Vis) spectral and dark current-voltage (I-V) measurement analyses. The deposited film layer was found to be homogeneous structure with crack-free surface. The bandgap value of TiO2 film was determined as 3.6 eV and transmission was around 65-85% in the spectral range of 320-1100 nm. The conductivity type of the deposited film was determined as n-type by hot probe method. These values make TiO2 film a suitable candidate as the n-type window layer in possible diode applications. TiO2 film was also deposited on p-Si (111) wafer to obtain Al/n-TiO2/p-Si/Al heterojunction device structure. The dark I-V characteristic was studied to determine the possible conduction mechanisms and diode parameters.

Properties of reactive O-2 ion beam sputtered TiO2 on Si wafers
Ulucan, S; Aygun, G; Ozyuzer, L; Egilmez, M; Turan, Raşit (2005-02-01)
Tio(2) thin films were deposited on silicon (100) p-type wafers, using the reactive ion beam sputtering method in high vacuum as an alternative to conventional Argon ion beam sputtering in an O-2 environment. Oxygen ions with 1000 eV energy were formed in a thruster and bombarded a high purity Ti target. The molecules of Tio(2) were deposited on a Si (100) wafer at various substrate temperatures. The structural and optical properties were analyzed using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy in the range o...
Conducting FTO coatings produced using ultrasonic spray pyrolysis for heating applications
Süer, Başar; Özenbaş, Ahmet Macit; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2018)
In this thesis, fluorine doped tin dioxide (FTO) coatings were deposited on AISI 304 stainless steel (SS) substrates using ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP) technique. Four different candidate insulating intermediate layers of TiO2, MgO, Al2O3 and SiO2 were selected and coated on AISI 304 using USP and investigated in order to overcome dielectric breakdown of FTO layer due to conductive nature of stainless steel substrate under the applied voltage. After the optimization of the process parameters for the dep...
Electroformed silicon nitride based light emitting memory device
ANUTGAN, TAMİLA; ANUTGAN, MUSTAFA; ATILGAN, İSMAİL; Katircioglu, Bayram (2017-07-31)
The resistive memory switching effect of an electroformed nanocrystal silicon nitride thin film light emitting diode (LED) is demonstrated. For this purpose, current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the diode were systematically scanned, paying particular attention to the sequence of the measurements. It was found that when the voltage polarity was changed from reverse to forward, the previously measured reverse I-V behavior was remembered until some critical forward bias voltage. Beyond this critical volta...
Processing and assessment of aluminum ceramic fiber reinforced aluminum metal matrix composite parts for automotive and defense applications
Türkyılmaz, Gökhan; Kalkanlı, Ali; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2009)
The aim of this study was to produce partially reinforced aluminum metal matrix composite components by insertion casting technique and to determine the effects of silicon content, fiber vol% and infiltration temperature on the mechanical properties of inserts, which were the local reinforcement parts of the components. Silicon content of alloys was selected as 7 wt% and 10 wt%. The reinforcement material, i.e. Saffil fiber preforms, had three different fiber vol% of 20, 25 and 30 vol% respectively. The inf...
Flexible organic photovoltaics from zinc oxide nanowires grown on transparent and conducting single walled carbon nanotube thin films
Ünalan, Hüsnü Emrah; Kuo, Daniel; Parekh, Bhavin; Amaratunga, Gehan; Chhowalla, Manish (Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2008-01-01)
The fabrication of flexible organic photovoltaics (OPVs) which utilize transparent and conducting single walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) thin films as current collecting electrodes on plastic substrates in zinc oxide nanowire (ZnO NW)/poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) bulk heterojunction photovoltaic devices is reported. The bulk heterojunctions for exciton dissociation are created by directly growing ZnO nanowires from solution on the SWNT electrodes and spin coating the P3HT polymer. A maximum OPV power convers...
