    • Capillary origami as a new method for obtaining folded structures with interior nanoparticle coating 

      Özkazanç, Gökçe; Erdem, E. Yegan (Elsevier, 2020)
      We introduce capillary origami as a new method to obtain 3D enclosures with coated nanoparticles on their inner surfaces. When a liquid droplet that contains nanoparticles is placed on the surface of a thin and flexible ...
    • Chitosan coated iron-oxide nanoparticle synthesis using a droplet based microfluidic reactor 

      Wahab, Malik Abdul; Erdem, E. Yegan (IEEE, 2019-06)
      A microfluidic reactor for the synthesis of chitosan coated iron-oxide nanoparticles is described. Tapered double T-junction is used to generate droplets of reactants (iron chloride solution and chitosan solution) which ...
    • Multi-step microfludic reactor for the synthesis of hybrid nanoparticles 

      Wahab, Malik Abdul; Erdem, E. Yegan (Institute of Physics Publishing, 2020)
      We introduce a multi-step microfluidic reactor for the synthesis of hybrid nanoparticles. As part of this study, nanoparticles composed of chitosan and iron-oxide are synthesized at room temperature by forming sequential ...
    • Silica nanoparticle formation by using droplet-based microreactor 

      Nikdoost, Arsalan; Özkan, Alican; Kelestemur, Yusuf; Demir, Hilmi Volkan; Erdem, E. Yegan (American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2017)
      This paper describes a method for the synthesis of silica nanoparticles that can be later used for coating of quantum dots inside a microfluidic reactor. Here, a droplet-based system is used where two reagents were mixed ...
    • Textured surfaces as a new platform for nanoparticle synthesis 

      Baştopçu, Melih; Derinöz, Anıl E.; Yılmaz, Asil C.; Erdem, E. Yegan (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)
      We present a new, surface-based microfluidic platform for the synthesis of nanoparticles. In this platform chemical reagents are carried in separate droplets, then mixed and later transported to a desired location on the ...
