Four novel alternating copolymers bearing 5-fluoro-6-((2-octyldodecyl)oxy)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole as a strong acceptor unit and 9,9-dioctylfluorene as a strong donor unit with bridging units namely, thienothiophene, selenophene, 3-hexylthiophene, and thiophene were designed and synthesized. The polymers were characterized via 1H NMR spectroscopy, and weight average molecular weights were reported via gel permeation chromatography (GPC). For synthesized novel polymers, the bulk heterojunction solar cells were constructed. Besides, the effects of bridging units on electronic, optical, photovoltaic, and morphological properties were investigated. Among the polymers, the thienothiophene containing polymer P1 exhibited the highest PCE as 4.25% under the illumination of AM 1.5 G with 100 mW/cm2.

Effect of W incorporation on the product distribution in steam reforming of bio-oil derived acetic acid over Ni based Zr-SBA-15 catalyst Cakiryilmaz, Nurbanu; ARBAĞ, HÜSEYİN; OKTAR, NURAY; DOĞU, GÜLŞEN; Doğu, Timur (2018-02-15) Zirconia incorporated SBA-15 type mesoporous material was synthesized following a one pot hydrothermal route, characterized and used as the catalyst support in the synthesis of Ni and bi-metallic Ni W based catalysts. Performances of these catalysts were tested in steam reforming of AcOH. Catalytic activity tests proved that the performances of SBA-15 and Zr-SBA-15 supported Ni based catalysts were highly stable and they also showed very high activity in steam reforming of acetic acid, giving complete conve...
Synthesis and electrochemical properties of a new benzimidazole derivative as the acceptor unit in donor-acceptor-donor type polymers OZELCAGLAYAN, Ali Can; SENDUR, Merve; AKBASOGLU, Naime; APAYDIN, Dogukan Hazar; Çırpan, Ali; Toppare, Levent Kamil (2012-04-15) A new benzimidazole unit, 4'-(tert-butyl)spiro[benzo[d]imidazole-2,1'-cyclohexane] was synthesized and coupled with different donor units like 3-hexylthiophene and 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) via Stille coupling. The donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) type monomers, 4'-(tert-butyl)-4,7-bis(4-hexylthiophen-2-yl)spiro[benzo[d]imidazole-2,1'-cyclohexane] (BIHT) and 4'-(tert-butyl)-4,7-bis(2,3-dihydrothieno[3,4-b][1,4]dioxin-5-yl)spiro[benzo[d]imidazole-2,1'-cyclohexane] (BIED) were electrochemically polymerize...
Effect of ring size on benzimidazole acceptor unit on the properties of donor-acceptor-donor type monomers and their electrochromic polymers Cansu Ergün, Emine Gül; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar; Cihaner, Atilla; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2015) In this thesis, a series of novel benzimidazole-type acceptor units were designed and synthesized. The target acceptors were benzimidazoles including cyclohexane, cycloheptane and cyclooctane rings. Each acceptor group was coupled with 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) and dihexyl substituted 3,4-propylenedioxythiophene (PRODOT(C6)) donor groups separately and six donor-acceptor-donor (DAD) type monomers were obtained. The main aim of this thesis is to comperatively elucidate the electrochemical and optical...
Synthesis and Characterization of a Luminol Based Chemiluminescent Trimeric System Kesimal, Busra; Balci, Burcu; Çakal, Deniz; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar; Cihaner, Atilla (2023-01-01) A luminol based chemiluminescent trimeric system, namely 2,3-dihydro-5,8-di(thiophen-2-yl)phthalazine-1,4-dione (T2B-Lum), bearing thiophene rings as donor units and 2,3-dihydrophthalazine-1,4-dione as an acceptor unit was synthesized in two steps via donor-acceptor-donor approach using two different methods. It was found that T2B-Lum emits chemiluminescent light when exposed to H2O2 in a basic medium, and the presence of substituents and the type of aromatic ring bearing chemiluminescent active group have ...
Effect of Midsynthesis Addition of Silica to the Synthesis Medium on the Properties of MFI-Type Zeolite Membranes Soydas, Belma; Kalıpçılar, Halil; Culfaz, Ali (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2010-06-02) Thin zeolite membranes of MFI type were prepared on alpha-Al2O3 supports by midsynthesis addition of silica in a recirculating flow system at 95 degrees C The synthesis was started with the batch composition of 80SiO(2): 30TPAOH:1500H(2)O which was changed to 80SiO(2)center dot 9TPAOH:1500H(2)O by addition of silica Mkt 24, 48, or 72 h Compared to synthesis at constant composition. it is possible to affect the rates of nucleation and crystal growth to obtain membranes with better quality by changing the ove...
