Bismuth germanium oxide (Bi12GeO20) is one of the attractive members of sillenite compounds having fasci-nating photorefractive characteristics. The electronic, optical and thermodynamic properties of Bi12GeO20 were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The experimental and calculated X-ray diffraction patterns were obtained as well-consistent with each other. The lattice constant of the cubic crystalline structure of Bi12GeO20 compound was calculated as 10.304 Å. The electronic band structure and partial density of states plots were reported and contribution of constituent atoms (Bi, Ge, O) to the valence and conduction bands was presented. The band gap energy of the Bi12GeO20 was calculated as 3.20 eV. This wide direct band gap energy provides Bi12GeO20 significant potential in ultraviolet applications. The spectra of real and imaginary components of dielectric function, refractive index, extinction coefficient and absorption coefficient were drawn in the 010 eV energy range. Temperature-dependent heat capacity plot indicated the Dulong-Petit limit as 825 J/mol.K. The results of the present study would present worthwhile information to device application areas of Bi12GeO20 compound.

Synergistic effect of boron containing substances on flame retardancy and thermal stability of intumescent polypropylene composites
Yılmaz, Ayşen; BAYRAMLI, ERDAL (2010-12-01)
The synergistic effect of four different boron containing substances, zinc borate (ZnB), borophosphate (BPO4), boron silicon containing preceramic oligomer (BSi) and lanthanum borate (LaB), were studied to improve the flame retardancy of a polypropylene (PP) intumescent system composed of ammonium polyphosphate (APP) and pentaerythritol (PER). The flame retardancy of PP composites was investigated by limiting oxygen index (LOI). UL-94 standard, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and cone calorimeter tests. Th...
Experimental characterizations of the response of nematic liquid crystal droplets upon adsorption of nanoparticles from aqueous media
Şengül, Selin; Büküşoğlu, Emre; Aydoğan, Nihal; Department of Chemical Engineering (2021-9-08)
Nematic liquid crystal (LC) droplets have been widely used for the detection of molecular species. In this study, we investigated the response of micrometer sized nematic LC droplets against the adsorption of nanoparticles from aqueous media. In the first part of this study, we synthesized ~100 nm-in-diameter silica nanoparticles and modified their surfaces to mediate either planar or homeotropic LC anchoring and a pH-dependent charge. Secondly, we carried out the adsorption of nanoparticles to the LC-aqueo...
In situ atom trapping of Bi on W-coated slotted quartz tube flame atomic absorption spectrometry and interference studies
KILINÇ, ERSİN; BAKIRDERE, Sezgin; AYDIN, FIRAT; Ataman, Osman Yavuz (2013-11-01)
Analytical performances of metal coated slotted quartz tube flame atomic absorption spectrometry (SQT-FAAS) and slotted quartz tube in situ atom trapping flame atomic absorption spectrometry (SQT-AT-FAAS) systems were evaluated for determination of Bi. Non-volatile elements such as Mo, Zr, W and Ta were tried as coating materials. It was observed that W-coated SQT gave the best sensitivity for the determination of Bi for SQT-FAAS and SQT-AT-FMS. The parameters for W-coated SQT-FAAS and W-coated SQT-AT-FAAS ...
Bactericidal and in vitro osteogenic activity of nano sized cobalt-doped silicate hydroxyapatite
Alshemary, Ammar Z.; Hussain, Rafaqat; Dalgic, Ali Deniz; Evis, Zafer (2022-10-01)
Hydroxyapatite (HA) particles with enhanced antibacterial properties can be prepared by integrating metal ions into the crystal structure of the nanoparticles. Cobalt and silicate ions containing HA (Co/Si-HA) with the formula Ca10-xCox(PO4)6-y(SiO4)y(OH)2 (x = 0.2, 0.6, and 1.0 and y = 0.5) was successfully synthesised by using microwave-assisted wet precipitation method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and inductively coupled...
Thermal characterization of composites of polyamide-6 and polypropylene involving boron compounds via direct pyrolysis mass spectrometry
İşbaşar Afacan, Güllü Ceyda; Hacaloğlu, Jale; Yılmazer, Ülkü; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2013)
In this work, the effects of addition of boron compounds, boron phosphate (BPO4), zinc borate (ZnB), borosilicate (BSi) and lanthanum borate (LaB), on thermal degradation characteristics of composites of polyamide 6 (PA6) and polypropylene (PP) are analyzed via Direct Pyrolysis Mass Spectrometry (DP-MS) technique. The composites of PA6 involve nitrogen containing flame retardants, melamine (Me) or melamine cyanurate (MC); or phosphorus containing flame retardant, aluminum diethylphosphinate (AlPi), with or ...
