97 percent light absorption in an ultrabroadband frequency range utilizing an ultrathin metal layer: randomly oriented, densely packed dielectric nanowires as an excellent light trapping scaffold
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)In this paper, we propose a facile and large scale compatible design to obtain perfect ultrabroadband light absorption using metal-dielectric core-shell nanowires. The design consists of atomic layer deposited (ALD) Pt ... -
Development of peptide nanomaterials for neural regeneration
(Bilkent University, 2015-05)Nervous system consists of a dense network of cells and their connections and exhibits a high level of complexity. This complexity arises from the high variety of cell types with very specific functions, the high number ... -
Extracellular matrix mimetic peptide scaffolds for neural stem cell culture and differentiation
(Humana Press, 2014)Self-assembled peptide nanofibers form three-dimensional networks that are quite similar to fibrous extracellular matrix (ECM) in their physical structure. By incorporating short peptide sequences derived from ECM proteins, ... -
Materials for articular cartilage regeneration
(Bentham Science Publishers B.V., 2012)Many health problems remaining to be untreatable throughout the human history can be overcome by utilizing new biomedical materials. Healing cartilage defects is one of the problems causing significant health issue due to ... -
Self-assembled proteins and peptides as scaffolds for tissue regeneration
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2015)Self-assembling proteins and peptides are increasingly gaining interest for potential use as scaffolds in tissue engineering applications. They self-organize from basic building blocks under mild conditions into supramolecular ... -
A versatile bio-inspired material platform for catalytic applications: Micron-sized "buckyball-shaped" TiO<inf>2</inf> structures
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015)A simple sol-gel synthesis method is presented for the production of micron-sized buckyball-like TiO<inf>2</inf> architectures using naturally occurring Lycopodium clavatum (LC) spores as biotemplates. We demonstrate that ...
