General Information | Purpose: Characterization of new synthesized compounds by absorption and emission spectra measured by UV-Visible and florescence spectrophotometers. Research interests: Observing photophysical and photochemical properties of compounds which are designed for photodynamic therapy (PDT), studying intermolecular energy transfer, studying chemical sensors by using compounds showing chemiluminescence properties. |
Laboratory Staff | Lecturers and students use laboratory equipment |
Applications | Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) Researches: Measuring photophysical and photochemical properties of compounds which are synthesized in chemistry department and investigating their utility in PDT. Intermolecular Energy Transfer Researches: Determination of energy transfer occurring between energy acceptor and energy donor molecules and investigating their applications such as LED (Light Emitting Diodes) and OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diodes). Sensor Researches: Sensor improvement studies by using molecules especially showing florescence properties. |
