Öğe Adsorption of thorium (IV) ions using a novel borate-based nano material Ca3Y2B4O12: Application of response surface methodology and Artificial Neural Network(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Kaynar, Umit H.; Kaptanoglu, I. . Gozde; Cam-Kaynar, Sermin; Ugurlu, Onur; Yusan, Sabriye; Aytas, Sule; Madkhli, A. Y.Since nuclear wastes are the most important wastes in terms of health and the environment, they are evaluated differently within nuclear reactors as well as in terms of their use in medical and industrial applications. In some cases, emergency intervention is necessary due to the amount of radioactivity or the physical and/or chemical conditions. . The purpose of this study is to investigate the adsorption properties of nano Ca3Y2B4O12 (CYBO) material synthesized by the sol-gel combustion method for the adsorption of Thorium (IV) from an aqueous medium. We tested how pH (3???8), the concentration of Th (IV) (25???125 mg/L), amount of adsorbent value (0.005???0.08 g) and temperature (20???60 ???C), affect adsorption efficiency. The best possible combinations of these parameters were examined by Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). R2 values for RSM and ANN were 0.9964 and 0.9666, respectively. According to the models, the adsorption capacity under the optimum conditions determined for the RSM and ANN model was found to be 134.62 mg/g and 125.12 mg/g, respectively.Öğe Anomalous dose behaviour of thermoluminescence glow curves and kinetic analysis of beta irradiated YAl3(BO3)4:Tb phosphor(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Souadi, G.; Bulcar, K.; Kaynar, Umit H.; Ayvacikli, M.; Topaksu, M.; Cam-Kaynar, S.; Can, N.With the aid of thermoluminescence (TL), we have extensively studied YAl3(BO3)4 host matrices incorporated with Tb3+ at different doping contents, which have been produced by combustion. The measured the TL glow curves exposed to beta rays at different doses consisted of four broad peaks located at around 76, 126, 230, and 378 degrees C. The peak maximum of the 230 degrees C TL peak shifts toward higher temperatures after 5 Gy beta irradiation while the other peak maxima almost remain constant. It is peculiar that 230 degrees C peak maximum shifts to higher temperatures with increased radiation dose and can be attributed to the multiple phases of the sample. A TL glow curve exhibits a proportional increase in intensity with increased the heating rate. A discussion of the possible causes of this pattern is provided. Observed peaks using the TmTstop method are due to the presence of a quasicontinuous distribution of traps. The parameters of the traps have also been estimated using various heating rate methods in excellent agreement with one another.Öğe Comparison of thermoluminescence characteristics of undoped and europium doped YAl3(BO3)(4) phosphor synthesized by combustion method: Anomalous heating rate, dose response and kinetic analyses(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Kaynar, Umit H.; Oglakci, M.; Bulcar, K.; Benourdja, S.; Bakr, M.; Ayvacikli, M.; Canimoglu, A.In this study, undoped and YAl3(BO3)(4) phosphors doped with Eu3+ at varying concentrations (x = 0.5 to 7 wt%) produced by a combustion process have been thoroughly examined by using the X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermoluminescence (TL) techniques. The crystallized phosphors were confirmed by XRD analysis, and its crystal structure was examined. XRD analyses of the synthesized phosphor is in accordance with ICSD File No 96-152-6006. TL glow curve of undoped sample produced three glow peaks located at 80 degrees C, 240 degrees C, and 360 degrees C with a heating rate of 2 degrees Cs-1 whilst Eu3+ doped one appears at 90 degrees C, 230 degrees C, and 390 degrees C. The undoped example complied with the theory as expected, namely, as the heating rate increased, the TL glow curve shifted towards lower temperatures and decreased in intensity. However, an anomalous change was observed in the sample with Eu3+ additive. The experimental findings from the dose-response of YAl3(BO3)(4):0.5 wt%Eu3+ demonstrate that the intensity of TL provided by the total area under glow curves has an acceptable linearity (r(2):0.999) up to 100 Gy. The intensity of each maximum on the TL glow curve augments proportionally as the heating rate is augmented. Possible reasons of this behaviour are discussed. Various heating rate (VHR) methods (such as Hoogenstraaten's and Booth-Bohun-Parfianovitch) have also been used to estimate kinetic parameters (e.g., energy and frequency factor), which seem to be in good agreement with each other.Öğe Determination of thorium adsorption processes by alpha spectrometry on Co-doped ZnO nano materials; modeling and optimization(Springer, 2023) Cam-Kaynar, Sermin; Kaynar, Umit H.With increasing environmental problems, it has increased the focus on waste removal and recovery. The objective of this study was to employ Co-doped ZnO nano-material, synthesized using the gel-ignition method, for thorium (IV) adsorption. The adsorbent structure was characterized subsequently, thorium (IV) adsorption was optimized using the Response Rurface Method (RSM). The optimal combination of parameters was determined using the RSM model, where the R-2 and R-Adj(2) values were 0.9908 and 0.9639, respectively, indicating the theoretical and experimental conditions were in harmony. The experimental adsorption capacity of the Co-doped ZnO nanomaterial was found to be 121.29 mg g(-1) under the specified optimum conditions.Öğe Dy3+and Eu3+co-activated gadolinium aluminate borate phosphor: Synthesis, enhanced luminescence, energy transfer and tunable color(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Madkhali, O.; Kaynar, Umit H.; Kaynar, S. Cam; Ayvacikli, M.; Can, N.The synthesis of GdAl3(BO3)4 phosphors incorporated with activators of Dy3+ and Dy3+/ Eu3+was successful and achieved through the gel combustion method. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) was employed to identify phase purity and the effects of dopant concentration on the crystallographic structure. The results of Photo-luminescence (PL) measurements revealed that the intensity and lifetime of luminescence properties varied depending on the concentrations of Dy3+ and Eu3+ ions. The dependence of luminescence intensity on doping concentration is investigated with respect to the energy transfer process between Eu3+ and Dy3+ ions. A decrease in luminescence lifetime occurs with increasing concentrations of Eu3+ co-doping. The energy transfer was also investigated using decay curve analysis. The co-doping of Eu3+ significantly boosts the energy transfer efficiency from 26% to 84%. These findings make GdAl3(BO3)4: Dy3+, Eu3+ phosphors an ideal choice for LED applications in solid state lighting and displays.Öğe Luminescence of undoped and Eu3+activated zinc gallate phosphor: Synthesis, unusual intense 5D0 ? 7F4 red emission(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Souadi, G.; Kaynar, Umit H.; Ayvacikli, M.; Can, N.A series of Eu3+-doped ZnGa2O4 samples were synthesized via the urea-glycine combustion route. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to investigate the crystallinity of the samples, energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) to explore the elemental composition, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), to observe the vibrational modes of the samples, photoluminescence (PL) to determine the luminescence properties. The XRD data prove that the samples remain single cubic structure even at high concentrations of Eu3+, enabling the formation of a unique emission spectrum. The active ion concentration was varied to examine the influence of concentration on luminescent properties. This study revealed a 5D0 & RARR;7F4 transition located at 700 nm with unusual intensity that has not been documented in the literature, which suggests that the active ion concentration can influence the luminescent characteristics of the phosphors. The increasing Eu3+ content increases the number of Eu3+ ions in ZnGa2O4 host lattice, which enhances the luminescence efficiency of the phosphor. However, beyond a certain level of Eu3+content (i.e., 3 wt% Eu3+), the number of Eu3+ ions becomes excessive, resulting in a reduction in luminescence efficiency due to concentration quenching. The dipole dipole interaction is elucidated to play a prominent role in the mechanism of Eu3+ quenching in the ZnGa2O4. An assessment of color coordinates based on emission spectra reveals that the coordinates shift from blue to the white light region, and then to red as Eu3+ content increases. This suggests that there is a substantial relationship between the Eu3+ concentration and the measured color coordinates.Öğe Minimization of the threshold voltage parameter of the co-doped ZnO doped liquid crystals by machine learning algorithms(Nature Portfolio, 2023) Onsal, Guelnur; Ugurlu, Onur; Kaynar, Umit H.; Eliiyi, Deniz TurselThis study aims to examine the influence of the co-doped semiconductor nanostructure (Al-Cu):ZnO on the electro-optical properties of the E7 coded pure nematic liquid crystal structures and minimize the threshold voltage of pure E7 liquid crystal. To determine the ideal concentration ratios of the materials for the minimum threshold voltage, we employed different machine learning algorithms. In this context, we first produced twelve composite structures through lab experimentation with different concentrations and created an experimental dataset for the machine learning algorithms. Next, the ideal concentration ratios were estimated using the AdaBoost algorithm, which has an R-2 of 96% on the experimental dataset. Finally, additional composite structures having the estimated concentration ratios were produced. The results show that, with the help of the employed machine learning algorithms, the threshold voltage of pure E7 liquid crystal was reduced by 19% via the (Al-Cu):ZnO doping.Öğe Phase transition and luminescence characteristics of dysprosium doped strontium stannate phosphor synthesized using hydrothermal method(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023) Kaynar, Umit H.; Coban, M. B.; Madkhli, A. Y.; Ayvacikli, M.; Can, N.A series of strontium stannate (SrSnO3) doped with Dy3+ ions at various wt % concentrations (1, 2, 3 and 5) were synthesized via hydrothermal reaction and analysed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectros-copy (EDS), environmental electron scanning microscope (ESEM), photoluminescence (PL) and, cath-odoluminescence (CL). The XRD results confirmed that all samples were assigned to cubic perovskite-type SrSnO3 structured with the Pm3m space group. The PL emission spectrum of Dy3+ activated samples consisted of some characteristic peaks located at 481 nm, 572 nm, 660 nm and 753 nm, corresponding to (4F9/2 -> 6H15/2, blue), (4F9/2 -> 6H13/2, yellow), 660 nm (4F9/2 -> 6H11/2, red) and 753 nm (4F9/2 -> 6H9/2, red) transitions. The PL emission line intensity is gradually enhanced with an increase in doping concentration up to 3 wt %, followed by concentration quenching. The confinement effects of localized resonant energy transfer might cause higher concentration quenching. PL emission spectra were affected by the temperature range from 10 K to 300 K. PL emission anomalies at 270 K in SrSnO3:Dy3+ have been reported to be consistent with a structural phase tran-sition at this temperature. This work confirms Singh et al.'s observation, revealing that SrSnO3 has a phase transition at 270 K.Öğe Structural and temperature dependence luminescence characteristics of RE (RE=Eu3+, Dy3+, Sm3+and Tb3+) in the new gadolinium aluminate borate phosphor(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023) Madkhali, O.; Kaynar, Umit H.; Alajlani, Y.; Coban, M. B.; Guinea, J. Garcia; Ayvacikli, M.; Pierson, J. F.GdAl3(BO3)4:Dy3+, Sm3+, Eu3+, and Tb3+ samples were successfully achieved via a sol-gel combustion method. The observed XRD analysis confirms the formation of the desired GAB host, indicating rhombohedral structures that agree well with JPCD card number 72-1985. The FTIR analyses show the detection of B -O stretching and B -O -B bending modes as well as Al -O and Gd -O bonds in the phosphor samples. Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis reveals that Sm, Eu, Dy, and Tb have been successfully doped into GdAl3(BO3)4. The observed broad intrinsic luminescence band can be caused by oxygen-induced luminescence defects in the GAB host with hydrous precursors. The luminescence properties of rare earth ion-doped GdAl3(BO3)4 samples are analysed by photoluminescence spectra, showing their optimal doping concentrations and critical distances of Dy3+, Eu3+, Sm3+ and Tb3+ are 2 wt% -25.8 angstrom, 7 wt% -17 angstrom, 1 wt% -32.59 angstrom, and 7 wt% -17.03 angstrom. Additionally, the energy transfer mechanism for luminescence quenching was determined as dipole-dipole (for Dy3+, Eu3+, and Tb3+) or dipole-quadrupole (for Sm3+) and the cross-relaxation process. GdAl3(BO3)4 samples obtained by doping with different RE3+ ions exhibit intense light emissions with different colors originating from different RE3+ ions under 349 nm excitation. When doped with different concentrations of RE3+ ions, the luminescence properties of the samples changed. The synthesized luminescence materials have potential ap-plications in lighting and display technologies.Öğe Synthesis, characterization and enhanced photoluminescence and temperature dependence of ZrO2:Dy3+phosphors upon incorporation of K plus ions(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023) Can, N.; Coban, M. B.; Souadi, G.; Kaynar, Umit H.; Ayvacikli, M.; Guinea, J. Garcia; Karali, E. EkdalThis study reports the successful synthesis and comprehensive characterization of ZrO2:Dy3+ phosphors with the incorporation of K+ ions. The introduction of Dy3+ and K+ in the ZrO2 lattice as lanthanide activators demonstrates its potential as an efficient host material. The structural integrity of ZrO2 remains unaltered following the doping process. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis confirms the presence of Zr-O and O-H stretching, along with H2O bending modes in the phosphor sample. The wide luminescence band seen at 460 nm is attributed to luminescence defects in the ZrO2 induced by oxygen, and the presence of water molecules. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra analysis reveals pronounced emission peaks at 491 and 578 nm, corresponding to 4F9/2 -> 6H15/2 and 4F9/2 -> 6H13/2 transitions, respectively, upon excitation at 349 nm. Optimizing the Dy3+ doping concentration to 0.4 wt% and achieving a critical distance of 31.82 angstrom resulted in efficient energy transfer. Notably, co-doping K+ as a charge compensator significantly enhances the luminescence intensity. Moreover, at lower temperatures, direct excitation of Dy3+ ions through our pump wavelength, coupled with exciton-mediated energy transfer, leads to a remarkable increase in PL intensity. Tailoring the doping concentrations effectively shifts the emission spectrum of the phosphor mixture, aligning with the standard white light illumination co-ordinates (0.333, 0.333). This property positions the material as a promising candidate for applications in white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) and various high-quality lighting applications. The enhanced photoluminescence and temperature dependence observed in ZrO2:Dy3+ phosphors upon the incorporation of K+ ions pave the way for their potential utilization in advanced luminescent devices.Öğe Thermoluminescence kinetic parameters of beta irradiated the zinc gallate phosphor using different methods(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023) Altowyan, Abeer S.; Sonsuz, M.; Kaynar, Umit H.; Hakami, Jabir; Ayvacikli, M.; Topaksu, M.; Can, N.The ZnGa2O4 phosphor material was synthesised through the gel combustion method, and its structural characteristics were studied via X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The XRD result indicates the generation of ZnGa2O4 in spinal cubic phase with a 25 nm crystalline size. The synthesized phosphor was irradiated using a90Sr/90Y source with a dose range of 0.1 Gy-100 Gy. For measuring thermoluminescence (TL), a linear heating rate of 2 degrees Cs ? 1 was applied to the sample in a temperature range of 25 degrees C-450 degrees C. The TL experiment revealed two peak maxima located at 180 degrees C and 304 degrees C and a shoulder around 70 degrees C. By preheating at 110 degrees C, the low temperature peak at 70 degrees C is removed. Both the depth and frequency factors of electron traps were determined using various heating rates (VHR), Tm-Tstop combined with initial rise (IR), and Computerised Glow Curve Deconvolution (CGCD). In both the Tm-Tstop and CGCD methods, six overlapping glow peaks were detected below the main glow peaks. The calculated activation energy values and peak maximum temperatures agree well with each other. The depths of electron traps calculated by different methods were found to be between 0.4 and 1.4 eV. We observed that both peak maximum temperatures and the area under glow peaks gradually decreased with an increase in the heating rate. Both Peak 1 and Peak 2 show sublinear relationship between 0.1-5Gy and 10-100 Gy. The findings of the present study show that the phosphors can serve as effective TLDs.Öğe Unravelling the impact of unusual heating rate, dose-response and trap parameters on the thermoluminescence of Sm3+activated GdAl3(BO3)4 phosphors exposed to beta particle irradiation(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Souadi, G.; Kaynar, Umit H.; Sonsuz, M.; Akca-Ozalp, S.; Ayvacikli, M.; Topaksu, M.; Ozmen, O. T.The thermoluminescence of GdAl3(BO3)4 (GAB) doped with various concentrations of Sm3+ (i.e. from 0.5 to 7 wt %), prepared by gel combustion, was studied. TL glow peaks at 78 degrees C and 225 degrees C are observed. The intensity of the glow peak at 225 degrees C increased with a faster heating rate. To gain insight into the trap activation energies, the methods of Hoogenstraaten and Booth-Bohun-Parfianovitch were used, where the calculated activation energies are 0.57 eV and 0.60 eV for Peak I and 1.69 eV and 1.71 eV for Peak II respectively. The dose-response of GAB:0.5 wt%Sm3+ demonstrates robust linearity up to 40 Gy, with a strong correlation coefficient of 0.999. Both TM-Tstop combined with the Initial Rise (IR) and Computerized Glow Curve Deconvolution (CGCD) techniques were employed, which revealed six overlapping glow peaks beneath the main peaks. Additionally, the results suggest that the TL signal can be efficiently exploited for radiation dosimetry applications.Öğe Unusual heating rates, dose responses and kinetic parameters detected on thermoluminescence from YAl3(BO3)4:Sm3+ phosphors(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023) Altowyan, Abeer S.; Kaynar, Umit H.; Bulcar, K.; Oglakci, M.; Portakal-Ucar, Z. G.; Hakami, Jabir; Topaksu, M.This study focused on the thermoluminescence (TL) characteristics of YAl3(BO3)(4) (YAB) phosphors modified with various contents of Sm3+ ions. The TL response of the YAB: Sm3+ phosphors exposed to beta irradiation was measured across the temperature range of 25-500 degrees C, exhibiting three TL maxima at 70, 235, and 408 degrees C. Preheating protocol was also carried out to remove the low temperature TL peak followed by further experiments with the two-remaining high-temperature peaks. In the TL measurements conducted with variable heating rates (HR) between 0.1 and 5 degrees Cs-1, an anomalous heating rate behaviour was observed. A semi-localized transition model was used to address this feature. There was a standard deviation of less than 5% in the reusability measurements. The results of the kinetic parameters obtained by initial rise (IR) and various heating rate (VHR) methods were compared with those obtained by glow curve deconvolution (GCD) method. T-m-T-stop analysis revealed a continuous distribution of trap levels with a trap depth ranging from 1.35 to 2.20 eV. Through the use of GCD, the glow curve was found to demonstrate general order kinetics and consist of seven superimposed traps. The values of the kinetic parameters obtained for the glow curve agreed with those obtained by other methods excluding the VHR method encountering an anomalous impact. The results obtained from these tests showed that the sample could be successfully used for TL dosimetry applications.
