Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Zinc Chalcogenide Based Shell Layers for Colloidal Quantum Wells(Wiley, 2025-04-27) Aldemir, Cagatay Han; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Ergezer, Nehir; Korkmaz, Taha Can; Mutlugun, Evren; Kelestemur, YusufColloidal quantum wells, also known as colloidal nanoplatelets (NPLs), have emerged as a promising class of materials for light-emitting devices (LEDs). However, the most widely studied core/shell NPLs, which rely on cadmium-based shell layers, face challenges due to toxicity concerns and improper charge confinement. To address these limitations, a new synthetic approach is presented that enables the controlled growth of zinc chalcogenide-based shell layers on NPLs. The synthesized CdSe/ZnSe core/shell NPLs exhibit emission between 615 and 630 nm, with a moderate photoluminescence quantum yield (PL-QY) of 40-50%. It is also demonstrated that the lateral dimensions of the CdSe core NPLs significantly affect the optical properties of the core/shell heterostructures, with smaller lateral dimensions resulting in narrower emission linewidths as low as 20 nm. Further passivation of these core/shell NPLs with an additional ZnS shell layer significantly increases the PL-QY up to 80-90%. Finally, the device performance of these two core/shell NPLs is investigated by fabricating solution-processed LEDs. With LEDs incorporating CdSe/ZnSe/ZnS core/multi-shell NPLs as the active light-emitting layer, an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 3.82% and a maximum brightness of 6477 cd m-2 is obtained. These findings underscore the significant potential of zinc chalcogenide-based shell layers in advancing colloidal NPLs toward high-performance light-emitting devices.Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 22Tattoo-Like Multi-Color Physically Unclonable Functions(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2023-12-07) Kiremitler, N. Burak; Esidir, Abidin; Drake, Gryphon A.; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Sahin, Furkan; Torun, Ilker; Onses, M. SerdarAdvanced anti-counterfeiting and authentication approaches are in urgent need of the rapidly digitizing society. Physically unclonable functions (PUFs) attract significant attention as a new-generation security primitive. The challenge is design and generation of multi-color PUFs that can be universally applicable to objects of varied composition, geometry, and rigidity. Herein, tattoo-like multi-color fluorescent PUFs are proposed and demonstrated. Multi-channel optical responses are created by electrospraying of polymers that contain semiconductor nanocrystals with precisely defined photoluminescence. The universality of this approach enables the use of dot and dot-in-rod geometries with unique optical characteristics. The fabricated multi-color PUFs are then transferred to a target object by using a temporary tattoo approach. Digitized keys generated from the red, green and blue fluorescence channels facilitate large encoding capacity and rapid authentication. Feature matching algorithms complement the authentication by direct image comparison, effectively alleviating constraints associated with imaging conditions. The strategy that paves the way for the development of practical, cost-effective, and secure anticounterfeiting systems is presented. Tattoo-like multi-color encoding layers based on random processing of semiconductor nanocrystals of varied composition and geometry are reported. Additive deposition via chaotic electrospraying enables randomness and multiplexing, whereas the tattoo approach provides substrate independence.imageArticle Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 11Natural Wax-Stabilized Perovskite Nanocrystals as Pen-On Inks and Doughs(Amer Chemical Soc, 2022-04-19) Ocal, Sema Karabel; Kiremitler, N. Burak; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Celik, Nusret; Mutlugun, Evren; Onses, M. Serdar; Karabel Ocal, SemaPerovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) are emerging luminescent materials for a wide range of technological applications. The broad adaptation of PNCs will be greatly improved by addressing their intrinsically low stability and developing processes for their assembly into 2D and 3D structures using facile approaches. Inspired by the mechanism of natural protection of leaves, this paper proposes natural carnauba wax (CW) as an encapsulation material for PNCs. The synthesis of PNCs is performed in the presence of CW, which is derived from the leaves of Copernicia prunifera palm. CW acts as a solvent and replaces the commonly used octadecene in the preparation of PNCs. The facile synthesis in CW results in PNCs with greatly improved thermal, water, and air stability. Furthermore, the thermal and mechanical properties make PNC-Wax a highly suitable solid ink for versatile processing of these materials into 2D and 3D architectures. PNC-Wax can be printed via a pen-on-paper approach by heating at modest temperatures. The rapid plasticization of PNC-Wax by mechanical agitation enables hand-shaping of the material in a manner similar to playdoughs, which would possibly enable the versatile use of this material for various applications.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 14Nanowire-Shaped MoS2@MoO3 Nanocomposites as a Hole Injection Layer for Quantum Dot Light-Emitting Diodes(Amer Chemical Soc, 2022-08-01) Bastami, Nasim; Soheyli, Ehsan; Arslan, Aysenur; Sahraei, Reza; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Mutlugun, EvrenMolybdenum disulfides and molybdenum trioxides are structures that possess the potential to work as efficient charge transport layers in optoelectronic devices. In the present study, as opposed to the existing Mo-based nanostructures in flake, sheet, or spherical forms, an extremely simple and low-cost hydrothermal method is used to prepare nanowires (NWs) of MoS2@MoO3 (MSO) composites. The synthesis method includes several advantages including easy handling and processing of inexpensive precursors to reach stable MSO NWs without the need for an oxygen-free medium, which would facilitate the possibility of mass production of these nanostructures. The structural analysis confirmed the formation of MSO nanocomposites with different Mo valence states, as well as NWs of average length and diameter of 70 nm and 5 nm, respectively. In order to demonstrate their potential for optoelectronic applications, MSO NWs were blended into hole injection layers (HILs) in quantum dot-based light emitting diodes (QLEDs). Electroluminescence measurements show a substantial enhancement in both luminance (from 44,330 to 68,630 cd.m-2) and external quantum efficiency (from 1.6 to 2.3%), based on the increase in the ratio of MSO NWs from 3 to 10%. Interestingly, the addition of 10% volume of MSO NWs resulted in a remarkably smoother HIL with improved current efficiency and stability in green-emitting QLEDs. The simplicity and cost-effective features of the synthesis method along with outstanding favorable morphology demonstrated their ability to enhance the QLED performance and mark them as promising agents for optoelectronics.Article Citation - WoS: 52Citation - Scopus: 52Multiplexed Patterning of Cesium Lead Halide Perovskite Nanocrystals by Additive Jet Printing for Efficient White Light Generation(Elsevier Science SA, 2020-01) Altintas, Yemliha; Torun, Ilker; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Beskazak, Emre; Erdem, Talha; Onses, M. Serdar; Mutlugun, Evren; Serdar Onses, M.Inorganic perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) offer the ability to precisely but also flexibly control the peak emission wavelength while also possessing narrow-band emission spectra and high quantum yields. Owing to these features, PNCs have been already employed as color converters on LEDs. Nevertheless, the anion exchange reactions that prevent the blending of perovskites of different colors remain as an important bottleneck. As a remedy to this issue, here we employ additive jet printing to form separated stripes of these nanocrystals. Within this framework, we first present the synthesis of CsPbBr3 and CsPbBrxI3-x nanocrystals spanning the whole visible regime and optimize the cleaning procedure to obtain PNCs possessing photoluminescence quantum yields as high as 91% and emission linewidths as narrow as 15 nm, making them suitable for high quality white light generation. Next, we employ electrohydrodynamic jet printing to form closely spaced stripes of PNCs of various colors and integrated these films with a blue LED to create a white LED. Our proof-of-concept LED achieves high photometric performance as it possesses a color rendering index of 91.3, luminous efficacy of optical radiation > 300 lm/W-opt, and correlated color temperature of ca. 7000 K. We believe that additive jet printing technique will pave the way for a ubiquitous use of these PNCs in light-emitting devices in the near future.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Light-Controlled Electrostatic Self-Assembly of Quantum Dots(Amer Chemical Soc, 2025-04-11) Akrema; Phul, Ruby; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Senel, Zeynep; Erdem, TalhaElectrostatic self-assembly is one of the important self-assembly mechanisms that found use in optoelectronics. Although this method enables realizing unconventional architectures, producing complicated architectures in large areas requires local control over the self-assembly process. One of the ways to achieve this control is to provide enough kinetic energy to the self-assembling nanoparticles so that they can escape electrostatic attraction. We hypothesize that this energy can be delivered to the nanoparticles by treating them with light that can be absorbed by the particles. Here, we test this idea to tailor the electrostatic self-assembly of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) using a laser. Employing fluorescence and atomic force microscopy, we demonstrate that the QDs are not attached to the substrate in regions where they are exposed to light while they are coated in the absence of optical excitation. We further conduct theoretical analysis to show that elevated temperatures indeed allow the QDs to escape the electrostatic attraction of the charged polymers on the surface. We also demonstrate that increasing the temperature during the coating process without irradiating the sample gives similar results as the case when the sample was irradiated. Finally, we fabricate an uncoated region on the self-assembled QD film with dimensions of similar to 200 mu m x 0.5 cm to demonstrate the feasibility of our approach to control the bottom-up self-assembly. We believe that our results may pave the way for a cost-effective and sustainable approach for the fabrication of nanoelectronic and optoelectronic devices.
