Two conducting polymers, poly(pyrrole) (PPy) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) were used as immobilization matrices for cholesterol oxidase (ChOx). The amperometric responses of the enzyme electrodes were measured by monitoring oxidation current of H2O2 at +0.7 V in the absence of a mediator. Kinetic parameters, such as K (m) and I (max), operational and storage stabilities, effects of pH and temperature were determined for both entrapment supports. K (m) values are found as 7.9 and 1.3 mM for PPy and PEDOT enzyme electrodes, respectively; it can be interpreted that ChOx immobilized in PEDOT shows higher affinity towards the substrate.

Spin-coated copper(I) thiocyanate as a hole transport layer for perovskite solar cells
Er, Utku; Icli, Kerem Cagatay; Özenbaş, Ahmet Macit (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-02-01)
Application of a low-cost and efficient p-type inorganic hole-transporting material, copper thiocyanate (CuSCN), on mesoporous n-i-p-configurated perovskite-based devices was conducted in this study. Diethylsulfide was chosen for the preparation of precursor solution in order to deposit CuSCN layer on perovskite without degrading it. Topographical, elemental, and electrical characterizations of spin-coated CuSCN layers were performed using XRD, AFM, SEM, XPS, UPS, and UV-Vis studies. A power conversion effi...
On the Possibility of a Polymer-Like Nanorod Based on Columnar Stacked Single Benzenoid Carbon Rings
Malcıoğlu, Osman Barış (American Scientific Publishers, 2009-04-01)
The properties of a polymer like nanorod based on columnar stacked layers of a single C-6 ring is investigated using density functional theory, in a plane-wave basis set and utilizing an ultrasoft pseudopotential. In this manner, the existence possibility of an unsubstituted, small cross section columnar pi-conjugated nanorod is aimed to be inferred via the calculated physical properties and bulk energetics. Two possible geometries for such a structure is presented in conjunction with previous work. The sys...
Synthesis and characterization of a novel polyphosphazene and its application to biosensor in combination with a conducting polymer
Ucan, Didem; Kanik, Fulya Ekiz; KARATAŞ, YUNUS; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 2014-10-01)
An amperometric glucose biosensor was prepared successfully based on a conducting polymer, poly(4-(2,5-di(thiophen-2-y1)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)benzenamine) (poly( SNS-NH2)) and a flexible hydrophilic polyphosphazene polymer, poly[(methoxyethoxy)ethoxy-co-3-formylphenoxy]phosphazene (PPA). Poly( SNS-NH2) was electrochemically polymerized on a graphite electrode to achieve a conducting immobilization matrix to improve the enzyme immobilization on the transducer surface. Moreover, to strengthen the immobilization, a ...
Screening effect on the binding energies of shallow donors, acceptors and excitons in finite-barrier quantum wells
Akbas, H; Aktas, S; Okan, SE; Ulas, M; Tomak, Mehmet (Elsevier BV, 1998-01-01)
The conduction and valence subband energies in the presence of an electric field are calculated using the fifth-order Runge-Kutta method. The binding energies of shallow donors, accepters and excitons in finite-barrier GaAs/Ga1-xAlx As quantum wells are then obtained variationally in the presence of a magnetic field. The effects of a spatially dependent screening function epsilon(r) On the calculation of binding energies are specifically investigated. The use of epsilon(r) in comparison with the use of a co...

We have studied the theoretical and experimental properties of InAs/AlSb/GaSb based type-II superlattice (T2SL) pin photodetector called N-structure. Electronic properties of the superlattice such as HH-LH splitting energies was investigated using first principles calculations taking into account InSb and AlAs as possible interface transition alloys between AlSb/InAs layers and individual layer thicknesses of GaSb and InAs. T2SL N-structure was optimized to operate as a MWIR detector based on these theoreti...
