Investigation of lithium salt-nonionic surfactant mesophases and their applications in solar cells as gel electrolyte
(Bilkent University, 2013)
Some salts and some nonionic surfactants self-assemble together into
lyotropic liquid crystalline (LLC) mesophases. The salt can be either in aqueous
solution phase or in its molten phase in the self-assembly process. ...
Photocatalytic NOx oxidation and storage under ambient conditions for air purification
(Bilkent University, 2012)
Air pollution is one of the most serious environmental problems in both urban
and rural settings with a direct impact on human health. A variety of chemical
compounds can be associated with air pollution and gaseous ...
Molten Salt Assisted Self-Assembly (MASA) : synthesis of mesoporous silica-ZnO and mesoporous CdO thin films
(Bilkent University, 2012)
A series of mesostructured salt-silica-two surfactants (salt is [Zn(H2O)6](NO3)2,
ZnX or [Cd(H2O)4](NO3)2, CdYand surfactants are cetyltrimethylammonium bromide
(CTAB) and 10-lauryl ether, C12H25(OCH2CH2)10OH, C12EO10) ...
Finding an optimum surface chemistry for [Formula] systems as NOx storage materials
(Bilkent University, 2010)
Titania promoted NOx storage materials in the form of BaO/TiO2/Al2O3 were
synthesized via two different sol-gel preparation techniques, with varying surface
compositions and morphologies [1, 2]. The influence of the TiO2 ...
Selective fluorescence sensing of biological thiols using a bodipy based bifunctional probe and the catalytic activity of short peptide amphiphile nanostructures : implications on the oring of life
(Bilkent University, 2013)
Chemosensor development is an attractive field of modern chemistry and there exist
large amount of contribution from all over the world. The biological importance of
thiols triggered the development of sensors to ...
Selective manipulation of ICT and PeT processes in styryl-Bodipy derivatives : applications in molecular logic and fluoerescence sensing of metal ions
(Bilkent University, 2010)
Recent developments in the Bodipy chemistry, provided new opportunities for
modification of this chromophore which, in turn, using appropriate metal-ligand
pairs, allowed the control and manipulation of PeT and ICT ...
Rational design of two photon absorbing Bodipy dyes
(Bilkent University, 2010)
Two photon absorption is a nonlinear process which is of particular interest in
various applications such as optical data storage, fluorescence imaging, O2
sensing and photodynamic therapy. These applications have created ...

(Bilkent University, 2011)
In this work, formation anddecomposition pathways of of Ba(NO3)2 on BaOBaO2
/Pt(111) surfaces were investigated at the molecular levelfordifferent BaOBaO2coverages
starting from small 2D islands of 0.5 MLE (MLE: ...
Synthesis of vertically aligned CNT arrays using liquid based precursors and their functionalization by conjugated polymers
(Bilkent University, 2011)
In the first part of this work, a new solution based catalyst precursor
application method is developed for growing high quality vertically aligned carbon
nanotubes arrays (VANTA) through alcohol catalyzed chemical vapor ...
