High-resolution confocal Raman microscopy was used to investigate the effects of nitrogen plasma on unsized high strength (HS) PAN-based carbon fiber surfaces. The fibers were treated by a high frequency (40.68 MHz) capacitively coupled single RF-PECVD reactor under different processing conditions (exposure times, RF powers and gas pressures). It was found that the order/disorder structure of the treated carbon fiber changed with different processing conditions. At low pressures, the degree of disordered structure increased with HF-RF power and process time. However, at high pressures, high-order structure (IG/IT = 84.51%) was observed and almost no observable structural effects appeared at long treatment time. Also, the first-order Raman-band peaks (D and G) of the treated carbon fibers shifted. And, FWHM (wD/wG), intensity (ID/IG) and D-band relative integrated intensity (ID/IT) ratios increased with ordering whereas they decreased with disordering.

Surface modification of unsized PAN- based carbon fiber by using high frequency single and dual RF discharge system Erözbek Güngör, Ümmügül; Bilikmen, Kadri Sinan; Akbar, Demiral; Department of Physics (2014) The aim of this thesis is to examine the effects of HF-RF nitrogen plasma treatment on unsized PAN-based carbon fiber surfaces. The fibers were treated under different plasma processing conditions; exposure times, RF powers and gas pressures in a homemade RF-PECVD reactor having two modes; single “40.68 MHz” and dual “40.68 /2.1 MHz”. Then, Raman and FT-IR spectroscopies were used to analyze the structure and functional groups of the fibers, respectively. Also, tensile strain of the samples was tested with ...
Large area uniformity of plasma grown hydrogenated nanocrystalline silicon and its application in TFTs Anutgan, Tamila Aliyeva; Anutgan, Mustafa; Atilgan, Ismail; Katircioglu, Bayram (Elsevier BV, 2010-05-15) This work investigates the effect of RF power density (100-444 mW/cm(2)) on the structural, optical and electrical properties of the hydrogenated nanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si:H) thin films grown by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) technique. Moreover, RF power effect on the large area uniformity was analyzed by comparing the properties of the films deposited at the center and near the edge of the PECVD electrode. Film characterization was performed by Fourier transform infrared and UV-vis...
Low temperature aluminum doped zinc oxide thin film deposition on ultra-thin flexible glass and PET substrates by RF magnetron sputtering Demircioglu, Zeynep; Ozkol, Engin; Nasser, Hisham; Turan, Raşit (2015-04-29) Aluminum doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films are prepared on ultra-thin flexible glass and flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates at room temperature by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering. Optimization of films has been achieved by varying process parameters to reach the demands of proper conductive layer for thin silicon solar cell applications. Structural analysis of the films was done by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy. Optical and electrical properties of the films were carried out by ...
High gradient plasma waves to accelerate charged particles Yedierler, Burak; Bilikmen, Kadri Sinan; Department of Physics (2002) In this thesis one of the most promising plasma based particle acceleration methods, the Laser Wakefield Acceleration (LWFA) mechanism is discussed in detail. Starting from the standard LWFA method, the wakefield generation in plasmas and the energy gain of electrons are formulated. The wakefield generation by a multi passage laser beam in a plasma model based on the resonant LWFA is proposed. The growth of the wakefield amplitude is demonstrated and the corresponding energy gain of electrons is calculated....
Studies on the modification of interphase/interfaces by use of plasma in certain polymer composite systems Akovali, G; Dilsiz, N (Wiley, 1996-04-01) Calcium carbonate and carbon fiber surfaces were modified by use of a series of plasma polymers at different selected plasma conditions, and the effect of surface modification, mainly on the mechanical properties of composite systems prepared, was investigated. The matrices for the composite systems employed were polypropylene and epoxy, for the chalk and C fiber, respectively. Mechanical and thermal studies and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) pictures revealed that inclusion surfaces, being independent ...
