Öğe A novel device fabricated with Cu2NiSnS4 chalcogenide: Morphological and temperature-dependent electrical characterizations(Elsevier, 2020) Karabulut, Abdulkerim; Sarilmaz, Adem; Ozel, Faruk; Orak, Ikram; Sahinkaya, Mehmet AkifCu2NiSnS4 nanorods were synthesized by the usage of hot-injection technique and used as interlayer between the p-Si and Al metal in order to examine their behavior against the temperature and frequency changes. The current-voltage measurements were performed in 80-300 K temperature range with 20 K steps. The X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) was used to prove the crystal structure of the synthesized Cu2NiSnS4 nanorods. Some crucial device parameters such as barrier height, series resistance and ideality factor values were calculated, and the obtained values were compared with other studies in the literature. It has been seen that the calculated parameters of the prepared device are strongly dependent on temperature changes. Besides, the capacitor behavior of fabricated device was investigated depending on the frequency and voltage changes. The experimental results indicated that the prepared device with Cu2NiSnS4 nanorods interlayer could be utilized in the electronic technology, especially applications in wide temperature range.Öğe Barrier height modification in Au/Ti/n-GaAs devices with a HfO2 interfacial layer formed by atomic layer deposition(Indian Acad Sciences, 2019) Karabulut, AbdulkerimX-ray photoelectron spectroscopy has been carried out to characterize the surface of the hafnia (HfO2) thin films grown on n-GaAs wafer by atomic layer deposition, and the surface morphology of the HfO2 layer on GaAs has been analysed using atomic force microscopy. The barrier height (BH) values of 1.03 and 0.93 eV (300 K) for the Au/Ti/HfO2/n-GaAs structures with 3- and 5-nm HfO2 interfacial layers, respectively, have been obtained from the I-V characteristics of the devices, which are higher than the value of 0.77 eV (300 K) for the Au/Ti/n-GaAs diode fabricated by us. Therefore, it can be said that the HfO2 thin layer at the metal/GaAs interface can also be used for BH modification as a gate insulator in GaAs metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS) capacitors and MOS field-effect transistors. The ideality factor values have been calculated as 1.028 and 2.72 eV at 400 and 60 K; and as 1.04 and 2.58 eV at 400 and 60 K for the metal-insulating layer-semiconductor (MIS) devices with 3- and 5-nm interfacial layers, respectively. The bias-dependent BH values have been calculated for the devices by both Norde's method and Gaussian distribution (GD) of BHs at each sample temperature. At 320 K, the phi b(V) value at 0.70 V for a 3-nm MIS diode is about 1.08 eV from the phi b(V)vs. V curve determined by the GD, and about 0.99 eV at 0.58 V for a 5-nm MIS diode. It has been seen that these bias-dependent BH values are in close agreement with those obtained by Norde's method for the same bias voltage values.Öğe Biosorption of heavy metal ions by chemically modified biomass of coastal seaweed community: Studies on phycoremediation system modeling and design(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017) Deniz, Fatih; Karabulut, AbdulkerimBiosorption of heavy metals by seaweeds (marine macroalgae) is a potential environmental biotechnology technique for biotreatment of industrial effluents. However, the co-application of biomasses of different seaweeds for bioremoval of these inorganic pollutants from aqueous phase is very limited. In this study, for the first time, a coastal seaweed community composed of Chaetomorpha sp., Polysiphonia sp., Ulva sp. and Cystoseira sp. species harvested from the north coast of Turkey was first treated with sodium hydroxide and then used as natural biosorbent material for the bioremediation of zinc-containing synthetic wastewater. Batch biosorption experiments were performed to optimize the conditions of environmental parameters (pH, biosorbent quantity, heavy metal concentration and contact time). The biosorption capacity of biosorbent for zinc ions was highly affected by the operating conditions. Kinetic studies showed that the biosorption process was multistep, fast and diffusion controlled. The pseudo-second-order rate model well described the biosorption kinetics. The equilibrium data of zinc biosorption fitted best with Sips isotherm model and the maximum biosorption capacity of biosorbent from this model was calculated as 115.198 mg g(-1). Thermodynamic parameters indicated that the biosorption process was physical and spontaneous. Besides, a single-stage batch biotreatment system was designed and the kinetic performance of this biosorption system was evaluated. The obtained results revealed that the prepared composite biosorbent could be used as efficient novel biosorbent for zinc removal from aqueous effluents. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V.

Al/CdO:TiO2/p-Si/Al heterojunction devices exhibited optoelectronic device behavior due to their photocurrent under solar light illuminations. The photoresponse behavior of the diodes is controlled by changing the molar ratio of CdO to TiO2. The fabricated CdO:TiO2 (2:1) based device exhibited the highest photoresponse of about 7.5 x 10(3). The interface properties of the devices are changed with the molar ratio of CdO:TiO2. The obtained results suggest that CdO:TiO2 composite film/p-type Si structure can be used in optoelectronic applications.Öğe CuAlMnV shape memory alloy thin film based photosensitive diode(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2020) Canbay, C. Aksu; Tataroglu, A.; Farooq, W. A.; Dere, A.; Karabulut, Abdulkerim; Atif, M.; Hanif, AtifIn the present work, the polycrystalline quaternary shape memory alloy (SMA) using composition of Cu-10.24 Al-3.13 Mn-0.41 V (wt%) was prepared with arc melting technique. The produced SMA was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). In order to fabricate the Schottky diode, the SMA was utilized as a Schottky contact on n-Si. The admittance (Y = G thorn i omega C) measurements were performed at different frequencies while the current-voltage (I-V) measurements of the prepared diode were performed at different light intensity conditions. The reverse bias current measured under illumination was found to be greater than the condition of dark. The obtained results approve that the diode displays a photoconducting behavior. The electrical parameters of diode were calculated from I-V data. Besides, the frequency impacts on the capacitance and conductance characteristics with regards to voltage were investigated. The experiments suggest that the fabricated diode could be chosen in the applications of the optoelectronic devices.Öğe Dielectric Characterization of Si-Based Heterojunction with TiO2 Interfacial Layer TiO2(2018) Karabulut, AbdulkerimIn this study, Al/TiO2/p-Si/Al heterojunction is fabricated and investigated some electrical and dielectriccharacteristics. Atomic layer deposition technique was used for synthesize of TiO2 interfacial layer due to the someadvantages such as uniformity and stability of surface. For determining electrical and dielectric characteristics,impedance spectroscopy measurements were performed in range from -1 to +1 V bias voltages and 10 kHz-1MHzfrequency range at room temperature. As an electrical parameters, interface states distribution and series resistancevalues was determined. In addition to these, it is found that the dielectric properties such as dielectric loss andconstant, real and imaginary parts of electric modulus, loss tangent and AC electric conductivity values wasdepended on frequency and voltage strongly. The electrical and dielectric characteristics show that interface statesand polarization values of fabricated device can follow AC signal at low frequency valuesÖğe Electrical characteristics of Au/Ti/HfO2/n-GaAs metal-insulator-semiconductor structures with high-kinterfacial layer(2018) Karabulut, Abdulkerim; Orak, İkram; Türüt, AbdülmecitWe have fabricated, metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structures, the Au/Ti/HfO2/n-GaAs. Metal rectifying contacts weremadebyDCmagnetronsputteringtechnique,and hafnium dioxide (HfO2) interfacial insulating layer with 3, 5 and 10 nm thickness has been formed by the atomic layer depositon (ALD) technique.The series resistance values from the forward biascurrent-voltage (I-V) curves of 3 nm and 5 nm MIS structures has reduced very slightly with a decrease in the measurement temperature. Thediode potentialbarrier height value from I-Vcharacteristics increased with increasing HfO2layer thickness. Thus, the diode potential barrier height.was changed using the interfacial layer of the hafnium dioxide.Barrier height increment is an important and desirable feature in the field effect transistors (FET) and microwave mixers.Öğe Electronic and optoelectronic properties of Al/coumarin doped Pr2Se3-Tl2Se/p-Si devices(Springer, 2018) Tataroglu, A.; Ahmedova, C.; Barim, G.; Al-Sehemi, Abdullah G.; Karabulut, Abdulkerim; Al-Ghamdi, Ahmed A.; Farooq, W. A.In this study, coumarin-doped Pr2Se3-Tl2Se (0.00, 0.05, 0.1, 0.3 wt% coumarin) were covered on the front side of a p-Si substrate by drop coating method and thus Al/coumarin doped Pr2Se3-Tl2Se/p-Si diodes were fabricated. The electronic and optoelectronic properties of the prepared diodes were investigated. The highest rectification ratio (RR = I-F/I-R) value was found to be 2.24 x 10(5) for the diode having 0.05 wt% coumarin doping at dark and +/- 5 V. Also, the highest I-photo/I-dark photosensitivity was found to be 1327 for the diode which has 0.1 wt% coumarin doping at 100 mW/cm(2) and - 5 V. The photocurrent of the diodes is higher than the dark current and increases by the increase of the light intensity. These results confirm that the fabricated diodes show a strong photovoltaic behavior. The electronic parameters of the diodes, for example ideality factor and barrier height values, were calculated by the use of current-voltage characteristics. The transient measurement proves that the diodes show both photodiode and photocapacitor behaviors. The change on the conductance and capacitance by the frequency is attributed to the existence of interface states. Thus, the obtained results suggest that the prepared diodes might be used as a photosensor in the applications of optoelectronic.Öğe Frequency and voltage dependence of electrical conductivity, complex electric modulus, and dielectric properties of Al/Alq3/p-Si structure(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2020) Orak, Ikram; Karabulut, AbdulkerimIn order to enhance the capacitance of the Al/p-Si metal-semiconductor structure, the Alq(3) thin film was coated between these two layers using the spin coating technique as the interlayer. The electrical conductivity, real and imaginary parts of electric modulus, dielectric loss and dielectric constant parameters were examined at the room temperature by the help of admittance measurements in the 100 kHz to 1 MHz frequency range. The effect of frequency on the dielectric constant and dielectric loss values is negligible at the negative voltage values, up to about 0.8 V, and these values rapidly ascended after 0.8 V. The function of electrical modulus complex has been examined from the point of permittivity and impedance in order to clutch the contribution of the particle border on the relaxation mechanism of the materials. It is established that the examined dielectric parameters strongly correlated with the voltage and frequency. As a result, the changes in the dielectric parameters and electrical modulus due to the varying frequency were described as the results of relaxation process, polarization and surface conditions. Furthermore, it could be stated that the Alq(3) material used in the interfacial layer is a useful material which could be used in addition to the conventional materials.Öğe Influence of Al2O3 barrier on the interfacial electronic structure of Au/Ti/n-GaAs structures(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2017) Karabulut, Abdulkerim; Efeoglu, Hasan; Turut, AbdulmecitThe Au/Ti/n-GaAs structures with and without Al2O3 interfacial layer have been fabricated. The Al2O3 interfacial layer has been formed on the GaAs substrate by atomic layer deposition. The effects of the interfacial layer on the current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics of the devices have been investigated in the temperature range of 60-300 K. It has been seen that the carrier concentration from C-V characteristics for the MIS (metal/insulating layer/semiconductor) diode with Al2O3 interfacial layer has a higher value than that for the reference diode without the Al2O3 interfacial layer (MS). Such a difference in the doping concentration has been attributed not to doping variation in the semiconductor bulk but to the presence of the Al2O3 interfacial layer because both diodes have been made on the pieces cut from the same n-type GaAs wafer. The temperature-dependent I-V characteristics of the MIS diode do not obey the thermionic emission current theory because of the presence of the Al2O3 layer. An electron tunneling factor, a delta(chi)(1/2), value of 20.64 has been found from the I-V-T data of the MIS diode. An average value of 0.627 eV for the mean tunneling barrier height, chi, presented by the Al2O3 layer has been obtained.Öğe Interface controlling study of silicon based Schottky diode by organic layer(Springer, 2019) Imer, Arife Gencer; Korkut, A.; Farooq, W. A.; Dere, A.; Atif, M.; Hanif, Atif; Karabulut, AbdulkerimThe organic layer-on- insulator-semiconductor structures have attracted most attention owing to their great significance on technological applications. The interface of silicon based metal/semiconductor diode was improved using an organic layer. In this study, Sn/p-Si MS contact and Sn/C14H15N3/p-Si MIS heterojunction were fabricated via spin coating method. The electrical parameters of both devices have been investigated, and compared using the current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) data at room temperature. The ideality factor of diodes with and without organic interfacial layer was calculated as 1.33 and 1.28, respectively. The values of barrier height were estimated as 0.69 and 0.81 eV for the MS and MIS type structure, respectively. Additionally, the values of series resistances for both diodes were determined as 1.27 and 1.19 k omega from Norde functions, respectively. The barrier height values were also examined using the reverse bias C-2-V characteristics for both diodes, and compared with results obtained from I to V data. The experimental results confirmed that the barrier height of Sn/C14H15N3/p-Si MIS structure is considerably higher than that of traditional Sn/p-Si MS diode. The performance and quality of these type devices could be improved and controlled by inserting the organic interfacial layer between the metal and semiconductor.Öğe Measurement of Electromagnetic Pollution in Sinop(Amer Inst Physics, 2017) Karabulut, Abdulkerim; Polat, BukeyhanIn this study, electromagnetic pollution at the 50-3500 MHz. band of frequency spectrum was investigated in central of Sinop.

International and national limit values compared with obtained values and to make data and resource is presented.Öğe Photodiode based on Pb0.9Cd0.1S ternary alloy semiconductor for solar tracking systems(Springer, 2018) Wageh, S.; Karabulut, Abdulkerim; Dere, A.; Al-Sehemi, Abdullah G.; Al-Ghamdi, Ahmed A.; El-Tantawy, Farid; Yakuphanoglu, F.The fabrication and photoelectrical properties of the photodiodes based on the ternary alloy of semiconductor nanocrystallite Pb0.9Cd0.1S with coumarin dopant were investigated. The structure, stability, melting temperature and optical bandgap of the prepared nanostructure were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, Infrared, Raman spectroscopy and UV-VIS-NIR spectroscopies. The characterization of the ternary alloy indicates that the crystal structure of the ternary alloy is cubic with some distortion in (111) direction and has a nanosize of 9 nm. The photoelectrical characteristics of fabricated Si-based photodiodes with coumarin doped PbCdS interfacial layers were investigated by using current-voltage, transient photocurrent and capacitance/conductance-voltage measurements. Some electrical parameters and the effects of illumination on these parameters have been determined from these measurements. Consequently, results of experiments suggest that the ternary alloy Pb0.9Cd0.1S nanocrystallite based photodiode can be suitable for optoelectronic applications.Öğe Photoelectrical characteristics of novel Ru(II) complexes based photodiode(Springer, 2019) Farooq, W.

Besides, the transient photocurrent and photocapacitance charactersitics were examined for distinct light conditions. Finally, the interface states were calculated from the capacitance/conductance-voltage (C/G-V) measurements.Öğe Silicon based photodetector with Ru(II) complexes organic interlayer(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2019) Karabulut, Abdulkerim; Dere, A.; Dayan, Osman; Al-Sehemi, Abdullah G.; Serbetci, Z.; Al-Ghamdi, Ahmed A.; Yakuphanoglu, F.In present work, the electrical properties and illumination effects were investigated for the silicon based photodetector with organic Ru(II) complexes interfacial layer. The current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance/conductance-voltage (C/G-V) measurements were analyzed to determine electrical and photoelectrical properties under dark and different solar light intensity conditions. The reverse bias current values under light conditions were higher than dark conditions, and this situation demonstrates that the fabricated device displays a photo conducting behavior. Besides, some crucial electrical parameters such as series resistance, barrier height and ideality factor values of prepared device were calculated by using current-voltage measurements. The ideality factor and barrier height values of fabricated device were calculated as 9.42 and 0.59 for dark condition. Besides to these experiments, transient photocurrent and photo-capacitance/conductance were also investigated under different light conditions. It was determined from transient measurements that the fabricated device has a high sensitivity to light. The photoresponse of the diode was determined to be around 4479 +/- 1.9 under 100 mW/cm(2 )illumination. The examined C/G-V characteristics of the fabricated device strongly depend on voltage and frequency. The analyzed results suggest that the fabricated Al/Ru(II) complexes/p-Si/Al device can be used in rapidly developing optoelectronic applications, especially for the organic materials-based photodetector technology.Öğe Solar light responsive ZnO nanoparticles adjusted using Cd and La Co-dopant photodetector(Elsevier Science Sa, 2018) Gozeh, Bestoon Anwer; Karabulut, Abdulkerim; Yildiz, Abdulkadir; Yakuphanoglu, FahrettinOptical sensing from the solar light range of light is very important for industrial process monitoring and life science.

Moreover, an approach to improve the Ion/Ioff ratio (photoresponse) by modifying the concentration has been investigated under dark and light illuminations, respectively. The Al/p-type-Si/Cd-(0.1)-La((0.1))Wt/Al photodetector exhibited a highest photoresponse were found to be 2263. Finally, the interface states were determined to explain the results obtained in the present study. The obtained results suggest that Cd/La-co-doped ZnO/p-Si diodes can be enhanced and pave the way for its potential application in the optoelectronic devices e.g. photodetectors.

In spite of their exclusive optical, structural, and electronic properties, the development of BODIPY based organic phodiodes has lagged behind that of other luminescent chromophore units. Here, we demonstrate the design, synthesis, and characterization of new BODIPY decorated triazine tripods for next-generation solution-processed photosensor applications. The photophysical and thermal properties of the BODIPY decorated triazines were determined. Furthermore, the photo-electrochemical properties of the synthesized compounds have been studied in detail using a photoconductivity measurement system. The potential of the prepared diodes as sensors in solar tracking systems has been investigated. Also, quantum chemical calculations were applied to those compounds to examine the effect of both OH groups and different binding positions on those compounds in comparison with experimentally observed data. As a potential application area, the photodiode properties of the designed molecules were tested here. The obtained photoelectrical results indicate that BODIPY decorated triazine tripod based photodiodes can be used as a photosensor in optic control systems.Öğe Surface and chemical characteristics of platinum modified activated carbon electrodes and their electrochemical performance(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2021) Yumak, Tugrul; Yumak, Serap; Karabulut, AbdulkerimPlatinum (Pt) loaded activated carbons (ACs) were synthesized by the thermal decomposition of platinum (II) acetylaceton ate (Pt(acac)(2)) over chemically activated glucose-based biochar. The effect of Pt loading on surface area, pore characteristics, surface chemistry, chemical structure, and surface morphology were determined by various techniques. XPS studies proved the presence of metallic Pt-0 on the AC surface. The graphitization degree of Pt loaded ACs were increased with the loaded Pt-0 amount. The electrochemical performance of the Pt-loaded ACs (Pt@AC) was determined not only by the conventional three-electrode system but also by packaged supercapacitors in CR2032 casings. The capacitive performance of Pt@AC electrodes was investigated via cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge-discharge curves (GCD), and impedance spectroscopy (EIS). It was found that the Pt loading increased the specific capacitance from 51 F/g to 100 F/g. The ESR drop of the packaged cell decreased with the Pt loading due to the fast flow of charge through the conductive pathways. The results showed that the surface chemistry is more dominant than the surface area for determining the capacitive performance of Pt loaded AC-based packaged supercapacitors.
