Being the key component of the semiconductor industry, silicon in nanowire form has gained increased attention. In this thesis, vertical arrays of silicon nanowires (Si NWs) have been fabricated with metal assisted etching method (MAE). MAE method is a simple, solution based and low temperature process. In this method, fabricated nanowires inherit the starting wafer characteristics, such as doping type, density and crystal orientation. In the first part, fabricated NWs in network form have been demonstrated...
Silicon nanostructures for electro-optical and photovoltaic applications
Kulakcı, Mustafa; Turan, Raşit; Department of Physics (2012)
Recently extensive efforts have been spent in order to achieve all silicon based photonic devices exploiting the efficient light emission from nanostructured silicon systems. In this thesis, silicon based nanostructures have been investigated for electro-optical and photovoltaic applications. The thesis focused on three application areas of silicon nanostructures: Light emitting diode (LED), light modulation using quantum confined Stark effect (QCSE) and photovoltaic applications. In the context of LED appl...

One-dimensional nanostructures open up new avenues in materials science since materials' properties do change with the dimension and size. Silver is a highly appealing material both in nanosize and bulk form. This is because of its high electrical conductivity. Silver nanowires are widely used in electronic and optoelectronic applications. On the other hand, although copper is almost equally conductive and cheaper than silver, copper nanowires are relatively new to these application areas. In this study, tr...
Nano structural metal nano composites: synthesis, structural and thermal characterization
Orhan, Tuğba; Kayran, H. Ceyhan; Department of Chemistry (2009)
Recently, the use of block copolymers in preparation of nanocomposites has received great attention as they form well-defined micelles. In this work, the synthesis of different metal functional copolymers, nano structural metal composites and investigation of their reaction mechanism and thermal characteristics by pyrolysis mass spectroscopy have been aimed. Namely, polyisoprene-block-poly2vinylpyridine, (PI-b-P2VP) and poly2vinylpyridine-block-polymetylmethacrylate, (PMMA-b-P2VP) were used as block copolym...
