Conference Object Fully Flexible, Low-Cost, Environmentally Friendly Yarn-Based Inp/Ag Nw Photodetectors for UV-Visible Light Detection(SPIE, 2025-08-01) Savaş, M.; Akrema, A.; Ocal, S.K.; Erdem, T.We report the fabrication and investigate of a novel photodetector using a heterostructure of InP quantum dots (QDs) and silver nanowires (Ag NWs) incorporated into yarn. This device is simple, scalable, low-cost, flexible, and functions under ambient conditions. Ag NWs and red-emitting InP QDs were separately synthesized via chemical methods and mixed in a specific ratio to coat functional yarns, which were then knitted into fabrics. The photodetector benefits from the excellent electrical conductivity of Ag NWs and the strong optical absorption of InP QDs. It shows enhanced photoelectric response in both UV and visible regions. At 405 nm illumination, the device achieves a photoresponsivity of 5.8 mA W-1 and a detectivity of 2 × 1010 Jones-values comparable to or exceeding those of similar devices. The enhanced performance is attributed to efficient charge transfer enabled by favorable band alignment between Ag NWs and InP QDs, along with synergistic effects from nanostructure dimensionality and quantum confinement. The device's combination of flexibility, sensitivity, and cost-efficiency makes it a strong candidate for wearable UV-visible photodetectors. © 2025 SPIE.

Electrically conductive nanocomposites are among important modern materials for this sector. We report on a bulk composite containing silver nanowires (AgNW) and an aerospace grade epoxy for use in carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs). AgNWs' surfaces were also modified to enhance their ability to be dispersed in epoxy. Composites were obtained by use of three-roll milling which is of major interest for industrial applications, especially for the aerospace sector, since the process is scalable and works for aerospace grade resins with high curing temperatures. Our main objective is to improve the electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance of CFRPs via improving the properties of the resin material. The addition of AgNWs did not considerably alter the flexural strength of the epoxy, however the composite with surface-modified AgNWs has a 46 % higher flexural strength. Adding AgNWs over a low threshold concentration of 0.05 wt% significantly enhanced the electrical conductivity. Conductivities above the percolation threshold lie around 102 S/m. At a concentration of 5 wt% AgNW, the EMI shielding efficiency (SE) of epoxy increased from 3.49 to 12.31 dB. Moreover, the thermal stability of the epoxy was unaffected by AgNWs. As a result, it was discovered that (surface modified) AgNWs improved the (multifunctional) capabilities of the aerospace grade epoxy resin which might be used in CFRPs to further enhance properties of composites parts, demonstrating suitability of AgNWs' as a reinforcement material in aerospace applications.
