    Disorder-Engineered Hybrid Plasmonic Cavities for Emission Control of Defects in HBN
    (American Chemical Society, 2026-02-07) Genc, Sinan; Yucel, Oguzhan; Aglarci, Furkan; Rodriguez-Fernandez, Carlos; Yilmaz, Alpay; Caglayan, Humeyra; Bek, Alpan
    Defect-based quantum emitters in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) are promising building blocks for scalable quantum photonics due to their stable single-photon emission at room temperature. However, enhancing their emission intensity and controlling the decay dynamics remain significant challenges. This study demonstrates a low-cost, scalable fabrication approach to integrate plasmonic nanocavities with defect-based quantum emitters in hBN nanoflakes. Using the thermal dewetting process, we realize two distinct configurations: stochastic Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) on hBN flakes and hybrid plasmonic nanocavities formed by AgNPs on top of hBN flakes supported on gold/silicon dioxide (Au/SiO2) substrates. While AgNPs on bare hBN yield up to a 2-fold photoluminescence (PL) enhancement with reduced emitter lifetimes, the hybrid nanocavity architecture provides a dramatic, up to 100-fold PL enhancement and improved uniformity across multiple emitters, all without requiring deterministic positioning. Finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations and time-resolved PL measurements confirm size-dependent control over decay dynamics and cavity-emitter interactions. Our versatile solution overcomes key quantum photonic device development challenges, including material integration, emission intensity optimization, and spectral multiplexity.

    Trans-Cis Isomerization Assisted Synthesis of Solution-Processable Yellow Fluorescent Maleic Anhydrides for White-Light Generation
    (Elsevier Science SA, 2015-12) Ozdemir, Mehmet; Genc, Sinan; Ozdemir, Resul; Altintas, Yemliha; Citir, Murat; Sen, Unal; Usta, Hakan
    Heterocyclic maleic anhydride derivatives have been extensively studied in natural products chemistry over the past few decades. However, their incorporation into optoelectronic devices has lagged behind that of other pi-conjugated systems, and they have never been studied in white light emitting diodes (WLEDs). The development of emissive pi-conjugated materials for (WLEDs) has been an emerging scientific and technological research area to replace phosphors used in LED-based solid-state lighting. Here, we demonstrate the design, synthesis and characterization of two new highly emissive alkyl-substituted bis(thienyl)maleic anhydrides (C6-Th2MA and C12-Th2MA) with favorable photophysical properties. The new core is synthesized via a novel trans-to-cis isomerization-assisted one-pot reaction, which is demonstrated for the first time in the literature for the synthesis of a bis(heteroaryl)maleic anhydride. Due to its favorable absorption and fluorescence properties in the blue and yellow region of the visible spectrum, respectively, C12-Th2MA is studied as a potential wavelength-upconverting material. A WLED fabricated by drop-casting a polymeric solution of C12-Th2MA on a blue LED (InGaN, 455 nm) yields promising CIE coordinates and color-rendering index (CRI) values of (0.24, 0.20) and 65.0, respectively. Considering the simplicity of the current molecular structure and facile synthesis, alkyl-substituted bis(thienyl)maleic anhydrides stand as ideal phosphor alternatives. Therefore, the current findings may open new perspectives for the development of maleic anhydride-based small molecules for low-cost, energy-efficient, and solution-processed lighting technologies.

    Size, Material Type, and Concentration Estimation for Micro-Particles in Liquid Samples
    (Elsevier Science SA, 2024-05) Genc, Sinan; Erdem, Talha; Icoz, Kutay
    The on -site examination and characterization of microparticles are becoming crucial due to the significant rise in plastic pollution in natural resources. Hence, identifying the specific microplastic composition and quantity would enable the implementation of preventive measures. This paper presents a cost-effective setup that utilizes the Random Forest algorithm to detect the size and refractive index of micro particles, hence facilitating the identification of the material type. The system utilizes the scattering patterns of laser light from the dispersion of microparticles, namely within the concentration range of 0.05 fM to 3.00 fM. The refractive indices and particle sizes of melamine (Me8) spheres with a size of 8 mu m, as well as polystyrene (PS8) spheres with a size of 8 mu m and (PS10) 10 mu m, were estimated using the Random Forest algorithm and recorded scattering patterns. The proposed method may deliver findings with an average deviation of 0.23 mu m for particle size and 0.015 for particle refractive index. The statistical analysis indicated that there was no notable disparity between the experimental findings and the predictions derived from the machine learning system. The existing configuration can be readily converted into a point -of -use system that can be employed on -site for the purpose of monitoring and identifying microplastic contamination.

    Numerical Analysis and Experimental Verification of Optical Scattering From Microplastics
    (Royal Soc, 2023-08) Genc, Sinan; Icoz, Kutay; Erdem, Talha
    Accurate and fast characterization of the micron-sized plastic particles in aqueous media requires an in-depth understanding of light interaction with these particles. Due to the complexity of Mie scattering theory, the features of the scattered light have rarely been related to the physical properties of these tiny objects. To address this problem, we reveal the relation of the wavelength-dependent optical scattering patterns with the size and refractive index of the particles by numerically studying the angular scattering features. We subsequently present a low-cost setup to measure the optical scattering of the particles. Theoretical investigation shows that the angular distribution of the scattered light by microplastics carries distinct signatures of the particle size and the refractive index. The results can be used to develop a portable, low-cost setup to detect microplastics in water.

    Excitonic Interaction Amongst InP/ZnS Salt Pellets
    (Royal Soc Chemistry, 2017) Altintas, Yemliha; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Unlu, Miray; Dadi, Seyma; Genc, Sinan; Mutlugun, Evren; Faruk Yazici, Ahmet
    Salt matrix has recently been introduced as a promising robust platform for embedding colloidal quantum dots to provide them with photo stability for versatile applications. This work demonstrates the excitonic interaction amongst high efficiency colloidal InP/ZnS quantum dots embedded in a KCl salt matrix. By varying the donor acceptor ratio within the solid platform, 65% Forster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) efficiency was attained. Optimizing the donor : acceptor ratio, we demonstrated the first FRET-enabled Cd-free pellets for white light generation possessing a color rendering index (CRI) of 84.7, correlated color temperature (CCT) of 5347.5 K, and a high luminous efficacy of optical radiation value (LER) of 324.3 lm/W-opt. Our study of excitonic interactions within quantum dot-loaded salt matrices will open new possibilities for future versatile optoelectronic applications.
