On the Properties and Characteristics of Solution Processed Hafnium Based Thin-Films from Aqueous Precursors

Creator:

Decker, Shawn R.

Abstract:

Aqueous hydroxo Hf nanoclusters enable studies to identify and codify steps in the deposition of Hf-based oxide thin films from solution precursors. HfOCl2 reacts with combinations of H2O2(aq), acids, and TMAH to produce polymetal species at high pH and low pH. X-ray scattering and spectroscopic methods reveal the nature of...

Processed Hafnium Based Thin Films from Aqueous Precursors by Shawn R. Decker A
New multi-functional chalcogenides for photovoltaic and thermoelectric materials

Creator:

Heo, Jaeseok

Abstract:

The subject of this PhD thesis is part of a research domain of great present interest in new semiconductor materials for photovoltaic and thermoelectric applications. This domain contains the elaboration and the study of both Cu-based chalcogenides bulk and thin-film samples, driven by materials design principles. One of the most...

Investigation of the structural influence on the properties of functional inorganic oxides

Creator:

Laurita-Plankis, Geneva

Abstract:

While properties are extremely important from an application point of view, it is crucial to have a detailed understanding of the underlying structural influence. Once a concrete correlation between the structure and the observed property is established, rational design of novel materials with optimized properties can be realized. These optimized...
