Low-Temperature Thermoluminescence in Layered Structured Ga_0.75in_{0.25< Single Crystals}
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2012) Isik, M.; Bulur, E.; Gasanly, N. M.
Defect centers in Ga0.75In0.25Se single crystals have been studied performing the thermoluminescence measurements in the temperature range of 10-300 K. The observed glow curves were analyzed using curve fitting, initial rise, and different heating rate methods to determine the activation energies of the defect centers. Thermal cleaning process has been applied to decompose the overlapped curves. Four defect centers with activation energies of 9, 45,54 and 60 meV have been found as a result of the analysis. The capture cross sections and attempt-to-escape frequencies of the defect centers were also found using the curve fitting method under the light of theoretical predictions. The first order kinetics for the observed glow curve was revealed from the consistency between the theoretical predictions for slow retrapping and experimental results. Another indication of negligible retrapping was the independency of peak position from concentration of carriers trapped in defect levels. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Low Temperature Thermoluminescence of Gd₂o_{3< Nanoparticles Using Various Heating Rate and t_{max< - t_{exc< Methods}}}
(Elsevier, 2019) Delice, Serdar; Isik, Mehmet; Gasanly, Nizami M.
Thermoluminescence (FL) measurements for Gd2O3 nanoparticles were carried out for various heating rates between 0.3 and 0.8 K/s at low temperatures (10-280 K). TL spectrum exhibited two observable and one faint peaks in the temperature region of 10-100 K, and four peaks in the temperature region of 160-280 K. Heating rate analysis was achieved to understand the behaviors of trap levels. It was seen that the peak maximum temperatures and TL intensities of all peaks increase with increasing heating rate. This behavior was ascribed to anomalous heating rate effect. T-max - T(exc )analysis was accomplished for TL, peaks at relatively higher temperature region to reveal the related traps depths. T-max - T-exc plot presented a staircase structure indicating that the TL glow curve is composed of well separated glow peaks. Mean activation energies of trapping centers corresponding to these separated peaks were found as 0.43, 0.50, 0.58 and 0.80 eV.

Identification of Shallow Trap Centers in Inse Single Crystals and Investigation of Their Distribution: a Thermally Stimulated Current Spectroscopy
(Elsevier, 2024) Isik, M.; Gasanly, N. M.
Identification of trap centers in semiconductors takes great importance for improving the performance of electronic and optoelectronic devices. In the present study, we employed the thermally stimulated current (TSC) method within a temperature range of 10-280 K to explore trap centers in InSe crystal-a material with promising applications in next-generation devices. Our findings revealed the existence of two distinct hole trap centers within the InSe crystal lattice located at 0.06 and 0.14 eV. Through the leveraging the T-stop method, we offered trap distribution parameters of revealed centers. The results obtained from the experimental methodology employed to investigate the distribution of trap centers indicated that one of the peaks extended between 0.06 and 0.13 eV, while the other spanned from 0.14 to 0.31 eV. Notably, our research uncovers a remarkable variation in trap density, spanning one order of magnitude, for every 10 and 88 meV of energy variation. The results of our research present the characteristics of shallow trap centers in InSe, providing important information for the design and optimization of InSe-based optoelectronic devices.

Synthesis, Characterizations and Investigation of Thermoluminescence Properties of Strontium Pyrophosphate Doped With Metals
(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2014) Ilkay, L. S.; Ozbayoglu, G.; Yilmaz, A.
Strontium pyrophosphate, Sr2P2O7, was synthesized by solid-state synthesis method; the product was co-doped with copper-silver (Cu-Ag), copper-indium (Cu-In) and manganese-praseodymium (Mn-Pr) oxides (CuO, MnO, In2O3, Pr6O11 and AgNO3) by solid-state reaction method. The variation of dopant concentrations was investigated from 0.5 to 15% by weight. In addition to these processes, chemical characterizations of samples and the investigation of thermoluminescence (TLD) properties of strontium pyrophosphate with and without dopants were conducted. For the characterization; powder X-ray Diffraction (XRD) were implemented for phase purity of samples. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to determine whether the bond structures were affected from the doping or not. Thermoluminescence (TLD) analyses were conducted on strontium pyrophosphate doped with different amounts of dopants for the first time. Glow curves showed that intensities were affected by different amounts of dopants. It can be concluded from that strontium pyrophosphate doped with 7% MnO and 1% Pr6O11 had the most powerful peak intensity around 160 degrees C and dosimetric property for promising application.

Thermoluminescence Properties of Al Doped Zno Nanoparticles
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2018) Isik, M.; Gasanly, N. M.
ZnO nanoparticles doped with aluminum (AZO nanoparticles) were investigated using low temperature thermoluminescence (TL) and structural characterization experiments. TL experiments were performed on AZO nanoparticles in the temperature range of 10-300 K. TL curve presented one intensive peak around 123 K and two overlapped peaks to intensive peak around 85 and 150 K for heating rate of 0.1 K/s. Curve fitting and initial rise methods were used to find the activation energies of associated trapping centers. Analyses resulted in the presence of three centers at 0.05, 0.08 and 0.17 eV with peak maximum temperatures (T-m) of 86.2, 121.5 and 147.1 K, respectively. TL experiments were expanded using different heating rates between 0.1 K/s and 0.5 K/s. Behavior of revealed traps was investigated using an experimental technique called as T-m - T-stop method. It was seen that traps are quasi-continuously distributed within the band gap. Structural properties were studied using x-ray diffraction, energy dispersive spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy experiments.

(Springer, 2016) Isik, M.; Yildirim, T.; Gasanly, N. M.
Low-temperature thermoluminescence (TL) properties of ZnO nanoparticles grown by sol-gel method were investigated in the 10-300 K temperature range. TL glow curve obtained at 0.2 K/s constant heating rate exhibited one broad peak around 83 K. The observed peak was analyzed using curve fitting method to determine the activation energies of trapping center(s) responsible for glow curve. Analyses resulted in the presence of three peaks at 55, 85 and 118 K temperatures with activation energies of 12, 30 and 45 meV, respectively. Thermal cleaning process was applied to separate overlapped peaks and get an opportunity to increase the reliability of results obtained from curve fitting method. Heating rate dependence of glow curve was also studied for rates between 0.2 and 0.7 K/s. The shift of the peak maximum temperatures to higher values and decrease in peak height with heating rate were observed. Moreover, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were used for structural characterization.

The Effect of Synthesis and Doping Procedures on Thermoluminescent Response of Lithium Tetraborate
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2011) Pekpak, E.; Yilmaz, A.; Ozbayoglu, G.
Lithium tetraborate has been a scientific focus since 1960s by the courtesy of the thermoluminescence property it possesses. Moreover, it is utilized in surface acoustic wave apparatuses, in sensor sector and in laser technology owing to its non-linear optical characteristics. For the uses in thermoluminescence dosimetry lithium tetraborate is activated by addition of a variety of metals as dopants. This study includes the synthesis of lithium tetraborate by two methods (high temperature solid state synthesis and water/solution assisted synthesis), doping of activators into the matrix material synthesized and characterization of the products. Lithium tetraborate is readily commercially available in TL (Themoluminescence) dosimetry; hence, the main aim in this study was to specify the effect of synthesis and doping methods on the TL response. The heating temperature for the synthesis was 750 degrees C and the retention time as selected as 4 h for both methods. The synthesis stages were followed by doping step where the compounds of Cu, Ag and In in different proportions were doped in lithium tetraborate by solid state and solution assisted doping techniques. Characterization of the product was achieved by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Fourier transform Infra Red Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) techniques. All samples prepared displayed TL response and the best TL signal was obtained from the sample produced by solid state synthesis and doped by solution assisted method with 0.1% Cu and 0.004% Ag.
