The development of green and safe processes for the synthesis of nanomaterials is one of the main aspects of nanotechnology. In this study, a biological, inexpensive and rapid process for the fabrication of palladium nanoparticles using the aqueous broth of Pistacia Atlantica fruit as a novel biomass product is reported without using extra surfactant, capping agent, and template. The synthesized palladium nanoparticles were confirmed and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques including UV-Visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Zeta-potential measurement. The results indicate that the spherically shaped Pd nanoparticles were successfully prepared in aqueous media in accordance with the principles of green chemistry with desired stability and crystalline in nature with face centered cubic geometry. Also, the results of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) confirmed preparation of very stable nanoparticles with the small diameter below 15 nm.

The design and development of high-efficiency interdigitated back contact (IBC) solar cells have been studied within the scope of this thesis. Developing a totally industry-compatible, lithography-free, high-throughput process flow for IBC cell fabrication was the main motivation of the thesis. For this, a detailed simulation study was conducted using Quokka 2 software to optimize the rear side cell geometry and understand the effect of bulk and layer properties on the device performance. After determining ...

The reaction between biologically green synthesized silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and mercury (II) ions was introduced as a new and high potential calorimetric sensor for the selective recognition and monitoring of mercuric ions in aqueous samples. The green synthesized silver nanoparticles were characterized with surface plasmon resonance (SPR) ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV-vis), SEM and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) techniques. The fresh biologically synthesized silver nanoparticles are yellowish-brown ...

Kılıç, Fahrettin; Öztürk, Tayfur; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2021-6)
This thesis focuses on the synthesis, characterization, and processing of LSF based composite cathode for solid oxide fuel cells. The cathode comprises three oxides; LSM, LSF and ScSZ which are synthesized by co-sputtering using combinatorial approach. The electrolyte was Scandia doped Zirconia(ScSZ), as it has attractive ionic conductivity at lower temperatures. Having chosen the electrolyte ScSZ as electrolyte. After detailed analysis with regard to conductivity and thermal expansion for each oxide, the c...
Dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction of propranolol enantiomers from human plasma based on the solidification of a floating organic droplet
Farhadi, Khalil; Hatami, Mehdi; Forough, Mehrdad; Molaei, Rahim (2013-03-01)
Background: A dispersive liquid liquid microextraction based on the solidification of a floating organic droplet was developed and validated for the extraction of propranolol enantiomers from human plasma. The studied enantiomers were extracted from diluted and alkalized plasma samples using I-undecanol as the extracting solvent. HPLC fluorescence detection analyses were carried out on a chiral column, using n-hexane ethanol (80:20, v/v) plus 0.2% triethylamine as the mobile phase, at a flow rate of 0.8 ml/...

Advances in nanoparticle (NP) production and demand for control over nanoscale systems have had significant impact on tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM). NPs with low toxicity, contrasting agent properties, tailorable characteristics, targeted/stimuli-response delivery potential, and precise control over behavior (via external stimuli such as magnetic fields) have made it possible their use for improving engineered tissues and overcoming obstacles in TERM. Functional tissue and organ replac...
