Bias in bonding behavior among boron, carbon, and nitrogen atoms in ion implanted a-BN, a-BC, and diamond like carbon films
(2011)In this study, we implanted Nþ and Nþ 2 ions into sputter deposited amorphous boron carbide (a-BC) and diamond like carbon (DLC) thin films in an effort to understand the chemical bonding involved and investigate possible ... -
Coarse-grained electrostatic model including ion-pairing equilibrium that explains DC and AC X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements on ionic liquids
(American Chemical Society, 2019)The dynamics of the electrochemical double layer in ionic liquids can be experimentally probed by a number of experimental techniques. Earlier, we reported on the results of an X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic investigation ... -
Contraction of atomic orbitals in the oxygen anion network and superconductivity in metal oxide compounds
(TÜBİTAK, 1996)Anion network in the CuO2 plane of metal-oxide compound is considered as an intrinsic-hole metal with holes rather than electrons comprising a Fermi liquid immersed in the background of negative O2- ions. Due to the ... -
Design strategies for ratiometric chemosensors: modulation of excitation energy transfer at the energy donor site
(2009)Excitation energy transfer, when coupled to an ion-modulated ICT chromophore, creates novel opportunities in sensing. The direction of energy transfer and the point of ICT modulation can be varied as desired. In our previous ... -
Detection of Calcium-induced morphological changes on RBCs by digital holographic microscopy and blinking optical tweezers
(IEEE, 2016)Ca+2 level in the circulating red blood cells (RBCs) takes part not only in controlling biophysical properties, but also affects the membrane composition, and its morphological and rheological properties. Excessive ... -
Effects of temperature, pH and counterions on the stability of peptide amphiphile nanofiber structures
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)Peptide amphiphiles are a class of self-assembling molecules that are widely used to form bioactive nanostructures for various applications in bionanomedicine. However, peptide molecules can exhibit distinct behaviors under ... -
Electrostatic interactions in charged nanoslits within an explicit solvent theory
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2015)Within a dipolar Poisson-Boltzmann theory including electrostatic correlations, we consider the effect of explicit solvent structure on solvent and ion partition confined to charged nanopores. We develop a relaxation scheme ... -
FTIR spectroscopic study on nickel(II)-exchanged sulfated alumina: nature of the active sites in the catalytic oligomerization of ethene
(Springer, 2002)The nature of the active sites in nickel(II)-exchanged sulfated alumina in the reaction of ethene oligomerization has been studied by means of FTIR spectroscopy of adsorbed CO. It has been established that isolated nickel(I) ... -
Hierarchical self-assembly of histidine-functionalized peptide amphiphiles into supramolecular chiral nanostructures
(American Chemical Society, 2017)Controlling the hierarchical organization of self-assembling peptide amphiphiles into supramolecular nanostructures opens up the possibility of developing biocompatible functional supramolecular materials for various ... -
Ionic current inversion in pressure-driven polymer translocation through nanopores
(American Physical Society, 2015)We predict streaming current inversion with multivalent counterions in hydrodynamically driven polymer translocation events from a correlation-corrected charge transport theory including charge fluctuations around mean-field ... -
Like-Charge Attraction And Opposite-Charge Decomplexation Between Polymers and DNA Molecules
(American Physical Society, 2017)We scrutinize the effect of polyvalent ions on polymer-DNA interactions. We extend a recently developed test-charge theory [S. Buyukdagli, Phys. Rev. E 94, 042502 (2016)1539-375510.1103/PhysRevE.94.042502] to the case of ... -
Local electric fields in aqueous electrolytes
(American Chemical Society, 2021-07-27)Vibrational Stark shifts were explored in aqueous solutions of organic molecules with carbonyl- and nitrile-containing constituents. In many cases, the vibrational resonances from these moieties shifted toward lower frequency ... -
