Emrah Sarıca

Doç. Dr. Emrah Sarıca is an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Başkent University. His research focuses on advanced materials science and thin film technology for optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications.

• Specializes in ultrasonic spray pyrolysis for thin film deposition
• Key research areas: doping effects, transparent conductive oxides (TCOs), semiconductor heterostructures
• Active in photovoltaic materials optimization (e.g., ZnO, SnO2, CdS, CZTS)

Recent work analyzes aluminum doping in ZnO films (2025), nano-titanium coatings for biomedical applications (2025), and multi-element doping strategies. His publications (17+ articles) demonstrate expertise in physical property modulation via annealing and compositional tuning. Collaborations span mechanical, optical, and electrical characterization studies.

Projects include entrepreneurial ventures like electrostatic-ultrasonic coating systems (2018) and industrial R&D for nanomaterial technologies through IDASONIC NANOKAPLAMA. Supervised theses on CZTS layers (2022) and ZnO-Cu2O films (2024).
