Article Colloidal Photodetectors Based on Engineered Multishelled InP Based Quantum Dots(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2026) Akrema; Erol, Erdinc; Savas, Muzeyyen; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Erdem, Talha; Mutlugun, EvrenIn this work, we present a straightforward and cost-effective approach to synthesize multi-shell InP/ZnSe/ZnSeS/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) that show promising potential for use in photodetectors. By carefully layering ZnSe, ZnSeS, and ZnS shells around an InP core, we were able to enhance the stability and optical performance of the QDs, achieving a narrow emission peak of 45 nm and a high photoluminescence quantum yield of 55%. These QDs were then integrated into simple photodetector devices, which possessed impressive sensitivity and detection capabilities. Specifically, our devices achieved a peak responsivity of 0.54 A W-1 and a detectivity of 2.22 x 1011 Jones at 400 nm with a 5 V bias. This study highlights the potential of InP-based QDs as a safer and more sustainable alternative to traditional QDs that contain toxic heavy metals, offering a viable path forward for developing high-performance optoelectronic devices. Our findings suggest that these InP/ZnSe/ZnSeS/ZnS QDs could be a key material for the next generation of high-performance optoelectronic devices, especially in applications that require highly sensitive and stable photodetectors.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 10Numerical Analysis and Experimental Verification of Optical Scattering From Microplastics(Royal Soc, 2023) Genc, Sinan; Icoz, Kutay; Erdem, TalhaAccurate 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.Doctoral Thesis Koloidal Nanomalzemelerin Akıllı Kendinden Dizilimi ile Nanofotonik Mimarilerin Tasarımı ve Uygulaması(Abdullah Gül Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2024) Şenel, Zeynep; Erdem, TalhaDNA-driven self-assembly techniques offer precise control over the positioning of colloidal nanoparticles through specific Watson–Crick interactions, and its reversibility via controlling the temperature of medium. This thesis explores an alternative strategy to control DNA-functionalized nanoparticles' binding/unbinding process by leveraging laser radiation, inducing localized heating within the nanoparticles to facilitate disassociation. First, we demonstrate the active manipulation of the optical properties of DNA-assembled gold nanoparticle networks via external optical excitation. Specifically, irradiation with a green hand-held laser yields a substantial ∼30% increase in total transmittance, accompanied by a transition from opaque to transparent states observable in optical microscopy images. The reversibility of this process is demonstrated by the restoration of the nanoparticle network post-irradiation cessation, underscoring the efficacy of optical excitation in tailoring both the structure and optical characteristics of DNA-mediated nanoparticle assemblies. Second, we introduce a method to tailor DNA-driven self-assembly of semiconductor nanoparticles on glass by applying an external optical field. A green laser directs the assembly of DNA-functionalized red-emitting quantum dots (QDs) on DNA-functionalized glass, leaving uncoated spots owing to localized heating. This effect becomes prominent after three hours of radiation using a laser with an irradiance of 57.1 W/cm2. Experiments with different lasers and nanoparticle types confirm the role of laser-induced heating in preventing QD-glass bonding via DNA-DNA interaction. Secondary coating of previously uncoated spots with DNA-functionalized green-emitting QDs and dye-functionalized DNAs indicates a successful hierarchical self-assembly. Our findings highlight the potential of light-assisted DNA-driven self-assembly for diverse nanoparticle architectures, promising applications in optoelectronics and nanophotonics. Keywords: Programmable self-assembly, DNA-driven self-assembly, localized heating, colloidal nanoparticles, DNA conjugation.Master Thesis Işık Emici Optoelektronik Cihazların Üretimi ve Yeni Uygulamaları(Abdullah Gül Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2022) Savaş, Müzeyyen; Erdem, TalhaFabrication of optoelectronic devices relies on expensive, energy-consuming conventional tools including chemical vapor deposition, lithography, and metal evaporation. Developing an alternative technology would contribute to the efforts on achieving a sustainable optoelectronics technology. Keeping this in our focus, here we present a simple technique to fabricate visible photodetectors. These fully solution-processed and transparent metal-semiconductor-metal photodetectors employ silver nanowires (Ag NW) as the transparent electrodes replacing the indium-tin-oxide (ITO) commonly used in optoelectronic devices. By repeatedly spin coating Ag NW on a glass substrate followed by the coating of ZnO nanoparticles, we obtained a highly conductive transparent electrode reaching a sheet resistance of 95 Ω/□. The transmittance of the Ag NW-ZnO films was 84% at 450 nm while the transmittance of the ITO films was 90% at the same wavelength. Following the formation of the conductive film, we scratched it using a heated surgical blade to open a gap which is ~30 µm forming an insulating line. As the active layer, we drop-casted red-emitting CdSe/ZnS core-shell colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) onto this gap. These visible CQD-based photodetectors exhibited responsivities and detectivities up to 8.5 mA/W and 0.95x109 Jones, respectively. These proof-of-concept photodetectors show that the environmentally friendly, low-cost, and energy-saving technique presented here can be an alternative to conventional, high-cost, and energy-hungry techniques while fabricating light-harvesting devices.Conference Object Simple, Sustainable Fabrication of Fully Solution-Processed, Transparent, Metal-Semiconductor Photodetectors Using a Surgical Blade as an Alternative to Conventional Tools(SPIE - The International Society for Optics and Photonics, 2022) Savas, Muzeyyen; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Arslan, Aysenur; Mutlugun, Evren; Erdem, TalhaFabrication of optoelectronic devices relies on the expensive, energy-consuming conventional tools such as chemical vapor deposition, lithography, and metal evaporation. Furthermore, the films used in these devices are usually deposited at elevated temperatures and under vacuum that impose further restrictions to the device fabrication. Developing an alternative technology would contribute to the efforts on achieving a more sustainable optoelectronics technology. Keeping this focus in our focus, here we present a simple technique to fabricate visible photodetectors. These fully solution-processed and transparent metal-semiconductor-metal photodetectors employ silver nanowires (Ag NW) as the transparent electrodes replacing the indium-tin oxide (ITO) commonly used in optoelectronic devices. By repeatedly spin coating Ag NWs on a glass substrate followed by the coating of ZnO nanoparticles, we obtained a highly conductive transparent electrode reaching a sheet resistance of 95 Omega/square as measured by the four-probe method. Optical spectroscopy revealed that the transmittance of the Ag NW-ZnO films was 84% at 450 nm while transmittance of the ITO films was 90% at same wavelength. Following the formation of the conductive film, we scratched it using a heated surgical blade to open a gap. The scanning electron microscope images indicate that a gap of similar to 30 mm is opened forming an insulating line. As the active layer, we drop-casted red-emitting CdSe/ZnS core-shell quantum dots (QDs) on to this gap to form a metal-semiconductor-metal photodetector. These visible QD- based photodetectors exhibited responsivities and detectivities up to 8.5 mA/W and 0.95x10(9) Jones, respectively. These proof-of-concept photodetectors show that the environmentally friendly, low- cost, and energy-saving technique presented here can be an alternative to conventional, more expensive, and energy-hungry techniques while fabricating light-harvesting devices.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 1Toward Sustainable Optoelectronics: Solution-Processed Quantum Dot Photodetector Fabrication Using a Surgical Blade(SPIE - Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2023) Savas, Muzeyyen; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Arslan, Aysenur; Mutluguen, Evren; Erdem, TalhaFabrication of optoelectronic devices relies on expensive, energy-consuming conventional tools including chemical vapor deposition, lithography, and metal evaporation. Furthermore, the films used in these devices are usually deposited at elevated temperatures (> 300 degrees C) and under high vacuum, which necessitate further restrictions on the device fabrication. Developing an alternative technology would contribute to the efforts on achieving a sustainable optoelectronics technology. Keeping this in our focus, here we present a simple technique to fabricate visible photodetectors (PDs).

G.; Erdem, T.; Akrema, A.; Maskevich, S. A.; Strekal, N. D.Chip system prototypes in the form of nanopillars were created from DNA complexes with CdSe/CdZnSe/ZnS quantum dots immobilized on a plasmonic gold fi lm by the use of vacuum deposition technology and inorganic synthesis. The design and presence of terminal DNA labeled with Cy3 cyanine dyes makes it possible to carry out the hybridization reaction of this terminal strand with complementary DNA and to control the process by variation of the giant Raman scattering (GRS) and the fluorescence signal. The effect of molecular recognition of complementary DNA is accompanied by a change in the GRS spectrum, a 20-fold increase in the fluorescence intensity, and a decrease in the duration of fluorescence decay.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Transparent Films Made of Highly Scattering Particles(Amer Chemical Soc, 2020) Erdem, Talha; Yang, Lan; Xu, Peicheng; Altintas, Yemliha; O'Neil, Thomas; Caciagli, Alessio; Eiser, ErikaToday, colloids are widely employed in various products from creams and coatings to electronics. The ability to control their chemical, optical, or electronic features by controlling their size and shape explains why these materials are so widely preferred. Nevertheless, altering some of these properties may also lead to some undesired side effects, one of which is an increase in optical scattering upon concentration. Here, we address this strong scattering issue in films made of binary colloidal suspensions. In particular, we focus on raspberry-type polymeric particles made of a spherical polystyrene core decorated by small hemispherical domains of acrylate with an overall positive charge, which display an unusual stability against aggregation in aqueous solutions. Their solid films display a brilliant red color due to Bragg scattering but appear completely white on account of strong scattering otherwise. To suppress the scattering and induce transparency, we prepared films by hybridizing them with oppositely charged PS particles with a size similar to that of the bumps on the raspberries. We report that the smaller PS particles prevent raspberry particle aggregation in solid films and suppress scattering by decreasing the spatial variation of the refractive index inside the film. We believe that the results presented here provide a simple strategy to suppress strong scattering of larger particles to be used in optical coatings.Article Bruggemann Teorisi Temelli Metal ve Polimer Melez Izgaralarının Optik Polarizasyon Tepkisi(2025) Erdem, Talha; Taze, EmirhanMevcut literatürde ızgara tasarımlarının farklı metaller ve polimerler içeren kompozisyonları yeterince ele alınmamıştır. Çalışmamız, değişen malzeme kompozisyonlarının polarizasyon özellikleri üzerindeki etkisini araştırarak bu boşluğu doldurmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu sorunu ele almak için, Bruggeman Teorisi'ni kullanarak altın, gümüş ve poli(dimetil siloksan) (PDMS) karışımlarının kırılma indisleri hesaplanmış, bu melez malzemelerden yapılan ızgaraların optik geçirgenliği ve yansıması simüle edilmiştir. Analizimiz, çeşitli malzeme oranları için farklı dalga boylarında polarizasyon oranında belirgin tepe noktaları ortaya koymuştur. Özellikle, simülasyon sonuçlarımız, polarizasyon oranının 450-1000 nm aralığında ayarlanması potansiyelini göstermektedir. Dahası, simülasyon ortamında hem 0 hem de 1 polarizasyon oranlarına ulaşılabildiği gösterilmiştir. Bu sonuçlar, belirli dalga boylarını hedefleyen optik filtreler ve polarizörler tasarlanmasına olanak sağlayacaktır.Doctoral Thesis Optik Saçılma Temelli Rastgele Orman Destekli Parçacık Tespiti ve Sınıflandırılması(Abdullah Gül Üniversitesi / Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2023) Genç, Sinan; Genç, Sinan; İçöz, Kutay; Erdem, TalhaMicroplastics, tiny plastic particles with sizes smaller than 5 mm., are often found in oceans, rivers, lakes, and atmosphere due to plastic pollution. Microplastics releasing toxic chemicals threaten the environment and harm the aquatic life and humans. Especially, the accumulation of microplastics can have detrimental effects on the food chain as a result of larger organisms consuming smaller organisms. Detecting the microplastics is crucial but also challenging. Over the years, researchers have developed different detection methods. One of the standard methods is using spectroscopy tools such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy. These techniques can identify the chemical composition of microplastics, which can help determine their sources and potential impacts. Another method is the use of microscopy, which allows for the visualization and counting of microplastics in samples. However, these techniques require costly infrastructure, and these instruments being large in size significantly limits the mobility. As a remedy to the cost and mobility problems, in this thesis, we propose and demonstrate a low-cost, portable system to detect size, concentration, and refractive index of microplastics. Our system comprises of low-cost and low-weight components which are utilized for recording the scattering patterns of microplastics in aqueous media. We demonstrate successful predictions of the size and refractive index of microparticles at a given wavelength using a Random Forest Algorithm which relates the measured scattering pattern with the Mie theory. We further employ the refractive index information at various wavelengths for determining the material type of microplastics. We believe that our proposed system enabling an easy, fast, low-cost, and on-site detection of microplastics will be a beneficial tool for the fight against microplastics in the environment.
