A new type of light-emitting hybrid device based on colloidal quantum dots (QDs) and an ionic transition metal complex (iTMC) light-emitting electrochemical cell (LEC) is introduced. The developed hybrid devices show light emission from both active layers, which are combined in a stacked geometry. Time-resolved photoluminescence experiments indicate that the emission is controlled by direct charge injection into both the iTMC and the QD layer. The turn-on time (time to reach 1 cd/m(2)) at constant voltage operation is significantly reduced from 8 min in the case of the reference LEC down to subsecond in the case of the hybrid device. Furthermore, luminance and efficiency of the hybrid device are enhanced compared to reference LEC directly after device turn-on by a factor of 400 and 650, respectively. We attribute these improvements to an increased electron injection efficiency into the iTMC directly after device turn-on.

Mutual coupling of printed elements on a cylindrically layered structure using closed-form Green's functions Acar, R. C.; Dural, G. (EMW Publishing, 2008-01-01) A hybrid method to calculate mutual coupling of electric or magnetic current elements on a cylindrically layered structure using closed-form Green's functions is presented. When rho = rho' and phi is not very close to phi', closed-form Green's functions are employed in the calculation of MoM matrix entries. When both rho = rho' and phi = phi', series representation of the spectral domain Green's functions do not converge, therefore closed-form Green's functions can not be employed. In that case MoM matrix e...
Active carbon/graphene hydrogel nanocomposites as a symmetric device for supercapacitors ATEŞ, MURAT; Cinar, Damla; Caliskan, Sinan; GEÇGEL, ÜNAL; ÜNER, OSMAN; BAYRAK, YÜKSEL; Candan, Idris (Informa UK Limited, 2016-01-01) Activated carbons (ACs) are successfully synthesized from Elaeagnus grain by a simple chemical synthesis methodology and demonstrated as novel, suitable supercapacitor electrode materials for graphene hydrogel (GH)/AC nanocomposites. GH/AC nanocomposites are synthesized via hydrothermal process at temperature of 180 degrees C. The low-temperature thermal exfoliation approach is convenient for mass production of graphene hydrogel (GH) at low cost and it can be used as electrode material for energy storage ap...
Highly active, robust and reusable micro-/mesoporous TiN/Si3N4 nanocomposite-based catalysts for clean energy: Understanding the key role of TiN nanoclusters and amorphous Si3N4 matrix in the performance of the catalyst system Lale, Abhijeet; Mallmann, Maira Debarba; Tada, Shotaro; Bruma, Alina; Özkar, Saim; Kumar, Ravi; Haneda, Masaaki; Machado, Ricardo Antonio Francisco; Iwamoto, Yuji; Demirci, Umit B.; Bernard, Samuel (Elsevier BV, 2020-09-05) Herein, we developed a precursor approach toward the design of a titanium nitride (TiN)/silicon nitride (Si3N4) nanocomposite with an activated carbon monolith as a support matrix forming a highly micro-/mesoporous component to be used as a Pt support for the catalytic hydrolysis of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) as a model reaction. The experimental data demonstrated that the amorphous Si3N4 matrix, the strong Pt-TiN nanocluster interaction and the synergistic effects between the three components contributed t...
Polymer interfaces with carbon nanostructures: First principles density functional theory and molecular dynamics study of polyetheretherketone adsorption on graphene and nanotubes Toraman, Gozdenur; Sert, Elif; Gulasik, Hasan; Toffolı, Danıele; Toffoli, Hande; Gürses, Ercan (2021-04-01) The interface of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene is investigated using density functional theory and molecular dynamics within the REAXFF-lg interatomic interaction framework. The dependence of PEEK adsorption energy on the polymer chain length, temperature, starting adsorption configuration of the fully stretched conformation, and on the nature of the substrate was investigated. Overall, the interface between graphene and the polymers yield larger adsorption energies t...
Electro-chemo-mechanical induced fracture modeling in proton exchange membrane water electrolysis for sustainable hydrogen production Aldakheel, Fadi; Kandekar, Chaitanya; Bensmann, Boris; Dal, Hüsnü; Hanke-Rauschenbach, Richard (2022-10-01) This work provides a framework for predicting fracture of catalyst coated membrane (CCM) due to coupled electro-chemo-mechanical degradation processes in proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) cells. Electrolysis in the catalyst layer (CL) bulk, diffusion of Hydrogen proton through the membrane (MEM), and mechanical compression at the interface with the porous transport layer (PTL) generate micro-cracks that influence the catalyst degradation. Based on our experimental observations, we propose ...
