Publisher and Date:(Elsevier Science Bv, 2006)Mixed Ce/Ti/Zr oxide thin films with a molar ratio of 0.5:0.25:0.25 were prepared using the sol-gel process and deposited on glass substrates by the dip coating technique. The effect of heat treatment temperature on surface morphology of the films was examined by atomic force microscopy AFM. The optical transmittance and reflectance of the films were measured over the spectral range from 350 to 1000 nm. The refractive index and extinction coefficient and thickness of the films were determined as ...

Characterization Of Mps Capped Cds Quantum Dots And Formation Self-Assembled Quantum Dots Thin Films On A Glass Substrate
Authors:Koç, Kenan; Tepehan, Fatma Zehra; Tepehan, Galip Gültekin
Publisher and Date:(Natl Inst R&D Materials Physics, 2011)Colloidal powdered and thin film forms of MPS capped CdS quantum dots have been produced by combination of colloidal chemistry and sol-gel method. Nanoparticles were self-assembled directly on a glass substrate using spin coating method without introducing any matrix. Colloidal powdered and thin film forms were characterised by absorbance photolimunescence XRD FT-IR HRTEM and AFM measurements. The HRTEM images give a grain size of 2.5-3.0 nm and this is in agreement with the values found in the ...

Authors:Ghodsi, Farhad E.; Tepehan, Fatma Zehra; Tepehan, Galip Gültekin
Publisher and Date:(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011)Ternary thin films of cerium titanium zirconium mixed oxide were prepared by the sol-gel process and deposited by a spin coating technique at different spin speeds (1000-4000 rpm). Ceric ammonium nitrate ce(NO3)(6)(NH4)(2) titanium butoxide Ti[O(CH2)(3)CH3](4) and zirconium propoxide Zr(OCH2CH2CH3)(4) were used as starting materials. Differential calorimetric analysis (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were carried out on the CeO2-TiO2-ZrO2 gel to study the decomposition and phase transition ...

Publisher and Date:(Elsevier Science Bv, 2008)CeO2-TiO2-ZrO2 thin films were prepared using the sol-gel process and deposited on glass and ITO-coated glass substrates via dipcoating technique. The samples were heat treated between 100 and 500 degrees C. The heat treatment effects on the electrochromic performances of the films were determined by means of cyclic voltammetry measurements. The structural behavior of the film was characterized by atomic force microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Refractive index extinction coefficient and thickness ...

Growth kinetics of MPS-capped CdS quantum dots in self-assembled thin films
Authors:Koç, Kenan; Tepehan, Fatma Zehra; Tepehan, Galip Gültekin
Publisher and Date:(Springer, 2012)For this study we prepared colloidal CdS quantum dots using 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane as capping agent. Colloidal CdS quantum dots were directly deposited on glass substrates by a spin-coating process. Coated substrates were heat-treated between 225A degrees C and 325A degrees C for various heat treatment time intervals to investigate the growth kinetics of the quantum dots. Results showed that sizes of the CdS quantum dots grew approximately from 2.9 to 4.6 nm and the E (1s1s) energy values ...

Publisher and Date:(Elsevier Science Bv, 2007)Optical and structural properties of mixed CeO2-TiO2 thin films have been investigated by varying the pH of the coating sol. The films were prepared by sol-gel process using spin-coating technique with a spin speed of 2500 rpm. The optical and structural properties of films were examined by a spectrophotometer AFM and XRD. Optical constants and thickness of the CeO2-TiO2 thin films have been determined with respect to the pH of the coating bath before deposition. The refractive index at 550 nm ...

Authors:Saygin-Hinczewski, Dursen; Hinczewski, Michael; Sorar, İdris; Tepehan, Fatma Zehra; Tepehan, Galip Gültekin
Publisher and Date:(Elsevier Science Bv, 2008)The optical properties and surface morphology of sol-gel spin coated WO(3) and WO(3)-SiO(2) composite films annealed at 250 and 400 degrees C are investigated. For the purpose of extracting the optical parameters of the films a novel form for the dielectric function is introduced consisting of two Tauc-Lorentz oscillators and an Urbach tail component which is suited for amorphous multi-transition materials with substantial subgap absorption. The evolution of the refractive indices transmittances ...
