    Electrochemical and Optical Multi-Detection of Escherichia Coli Through Magneto-Optic Nanoparticles: A Pencil-on Biosensor
    (MDPI, 2024-12-10) Soysaldi, Furkan; Ekici, Derya Dincyurek; Soylu, Mehmet cagri; Mutlugun, Evren; Dincyurek Ekici, Derya
    Escherichia coli (E. coli) detection suffers from slow analysis time and high costs, along with the need for specificity. While state-of-the-art electrochemical biosensors are cost-efficient and easy to implement, their sensitivity and analysis time still require improvement. In this work, we present a paper-based electrochemical biosensor utilizing magnetic core-shell Fe2O3@CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (MQDs) to achieve fast detection, low cost, and high sensitivity. Using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) as the detection technique, the biosensor achieved a limit of detection of 2.7 x 10(2) CFU/mL for E. coli bacteria across a concentration range of 10(2)-10(8) CFU/mL, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 3.5781%. From an optical perspective, as E. coli concentration increased steadily from 10(4) to 10(7) CFU/mL, quantum dot fluorescence showed over 60% lifetime quenching. This hybrid biosensor thus provides rapid, highly sensitive E. coli detection with a fast analysis time of 30 min. This study, which combines the detection advantages of electrochemical and optical biosensor systems in a graphite-based paper sensor for the first time, has the potential to meet the needs of point-of-care applications. It is thought that future studies that will aim to examine the performance of the production-optimized, portable, graphite-based sensor system on real food samples, environmental samples, and especially medical clinical samples will be promising.

    Enhanced Photoluminescence and Stability of CsPbBr3 Perovskite Nanocrystals Through AuCl Doping
    (Springer, 2026-02) Khorasani, Azam; Mutlugun, Evren
    This study delves into the transformative effects of inorganic gold chloride (AuCl) doping on all-inorganic cesium lead bromide (CsPbBr3) colloidal perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs). Using a precise hot injection synthesis method, AuCl was introduced at concentrations ranging from 0 to 10%, enabling a comprehensive analysis of its impact on the structural, morphological, and optical characteristics of CsPbBr3 PeQDs. We systematically investigated how varying AuCl levels influence photoluminescence (PL), PL quantum yield (PLQY), and the stability of these quantum dots. Advanced characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-Vis absorption, steady-state PL, absolute PL measurement, and time-resolved PL (TRPL), provided a detailed insight into these changes. Our findings indicate that AuCl doping is successfully integrated into CsPbBr3 PeQDs, with 5% identified as the optimal concentration. At this level, the quantum dots show enhanced PLQY, superior crystallinity, and increased stability at 50 degrees C and in ethanol solvent compared to undoped samples. While higher doping levels reduce QY and PL slightly, they still outperform the undoped CsPbBr3 PeQDs. These results demonstrate that AuCl doping can fine-tune the structural and optical properties of CsPbBr3 PeQDs, marking a significant step forward in developing tailored materials for advanced optoelectronic applications.

    Cd-Free Quantum Dot Pellets for Efficient White Light Generation
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2017-11-01) Altintas, Yemliha; Talpur, Mohammad Younis; Mutlugun, Evren
    Semiconductor quantum dots have been on demand for niche optoelectronic applications providing color tenability and possessing high quantum yield and high extinction coefficient. Although the investigation of II-VI have attained a mature level of understanding of the photo physical properties, suppression of the nonradiative decay channels and enhancing the optical properties for III-V material systems still remain a challenge. In this study, we have developed and demonstrated a simple, very fast, and efficient strategy to synthesize the highly luminescent III-V group based In(Zn)P quantum dots (QDs) utilized by the effect of core growth temperature, revealing their emission kinetics and their outstanding application for white light generation. Varying the core growth temperature from 240 degrees C to 90 degrees C, limiting the extent of the precursors involved in the synthesis, and a substantial enhancement of the photoluminescence quantum yield up to 75% is demonstrated. Further modification of the synthesis procedure with optimizing the In:P precursor ratio for the first time up to 88.5 +/- 5.5% quantum yield of alloyed core/shell In(Zn)P/ZnS QDs is achieved, in which the whole synthesis process takes only around one hour. In addition, as a demonstration of Cd-free pellets, versatile pellets of green and orange emitting QDs within KCl macrocrystals are prepared. Hybridizing with blue LED, a white light with correlated color temperature of 4597K along with an unprecedentedly high color rendering index of 90 is presented. (C) 2017 Optical Society of America

    Tuning the Shades of Red Emission in InP/ZnSe Nanocrystals With Narrow Full Width for Fabrication of Light-Emitting Diodes
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2023-10-13) Soheyli, Ehsan; Bicer, Aysenur; Ozel, Sultan Suleyman; Tiras, Kevser Sahin; Mutlugun, Evren; Sahin Tiras, Kevser
    While Cd-based luminescent nanocrystals (NCs) are the most mature NCs for fabricating efficient red light-emitting diodes (LEDs), their toxicity related limitation is inevitable, making it necessary to find a promising alternative. From this point of view, multishell-coated, red-emissive InP-based NCs are excellent luminescent nanomaterials for use as an emissive layer in electroluminescent (EL) devices. However, due to the presence of oxidation states, they suffer from a wide emission spectrum, which limits their performance. This study uses tris-(dimethyl-amino)-phosphine (3DMA-P) as a low-cost aminophosphine precursor and a double HF treatment to suggest an upscaled, cost-effective, and one-pot hot-injection synthesis of purely red-emissive InP-based NCs. The InP core structures were coated with thick layers of ZnSe and ZnS shells to prevent charge delocalization and to create a narrow size distribution. The purified NCs showed an intense emission signal as narrow as 43 nm across the entire red wavelength range (626-670 nm) with an emission quantum efficiency of 74% at 632 nm. The purified samples also showed an emission quantum efficiency of 60% for far-red wavelengths of 670 nm with a narrow full width of 50 nm. The samples showed a relatively long average emission lifetime of 50-70 ns with a biexponential decay profile. To demonstrate the practical ability of the prepared NCs in optoelectronics, we fabricated a red-emissive InP-based LEDs. The best-performing device showed an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 1.16%, a luminance of 1039 cd m(-2), and a current efficiency of 0.88 cd A(-1).

    Plasmon Enhanced Emission of Perovskite Quantum Dot Films
    (Cambridge Univ Press, 2018-01-09) Dadi, Seyma; Altintas, Yemliha; Beskazak, Emre; Mutlugun, Evren; Dadl, Seyma; Altlntas, Yemliha
    We propose and demonstrate the photoluminescence enhancement of CsPbBr3 perovskite quantum dot films in the presence of Au nanoparticles. Embedded into a polymer matrix, Au nanoparticle-quantum dot film assemble prepared by an easy spin coating method enabled the photoluminescence enhancement of perovskite quantum dot films up to 78%. The properties of the synthesized perovskite QDs and gold nanoparticles have been analysed using high resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, UV-Vis absorption spectrophotometer, steady state and time-resolved photoluminescence spectrometer.

    Photoluminescent Carbon Dots for Sensitive and Selective Cu2+ Ion Detection
    (Institute of Physics, 2026-01-07) Sahin-Tiras, K.; Karabel Ocal, S.; Mutlugün, E.; Sahin Tiras, Kevser
    Green-emitting carbon dots (CDs) were synthesized via a solvent-free, vacuum-assisted method using citric acid and urea. The CDs exhibited strong photoluminescence and served as selective, sensitive probes for Cu2+ detection in water, with a detection limit of 26 nM. Among the tested metal ions, Cu2+ induced the most significant PL quenching. Time-resolved photoluminescence measurements of the CDs in the presence of Cu2+ ions revealed a minimal change in lifetime, despite a significant decrease in PL intensity, along with unchanged UV-vis absorption, indicating a mixed quenching mechanism. The sensor’s applicability was confirmed in raisin extract and tea infusion, showing notable PL suppression. With their simplicity, selectivity, and sensitivity, these CDs offer promising potential as nanosensors for detecting Cu2+ in environmental and real-world analytical settings. © 2026 The Author(s).

    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.
