Gas-phase fragmentation chemistry of protonated peptide ions

Creator:: Bythell, Benjamin James
Abstract:: The fragmentation characteristics of protonated peptides have been investigated using tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) under various fragmentation regimes and detailed density functional theory (DFT) reaction pathway calculations. The DFT calculations predict novel salt-bridge stabilized transition structures as well as consecutive reactions occurring in proton-bound dimers for some of the ions...

Gene Expression, Structure Elucidation, and Bioactivity of Aspergillus Natural Products

Creator:: Neuhaus, George F.
Abstract:: The study of natural products (NPs) and their application has shaped humanity. Starting with the idea of using plants as medicine, it has now grown into the science of purifying and identifying organic molecules from nature to study their inherent biological activities. Understanding the molecular structures of NPs is the...

Growth and characterization of wide–gap semiconducting oxide and chalcogenide thin films by pulsed laser deposition

Creator:: Newhouse, Paul F.
Abstract:: The preparation and characterization of thin film oxides and chalcogenides by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is presented. An overview of fundamental PLD concepts are presented and are followed by a description implementation and development of the PLD systems at OSU. We present the results of thin film growth of high...

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...

Synthesis and study of transparent p- and n-type semiconductors and luminescent materials

Creator:: Park, Cheol-Hee
Abstract:: New transparent p- and n-type semiconductors and luminescent materials have been prepared and characterized. Synthesis, structures, optical and electrical properties of new chalcogenide fluoride p-type transparent semiconductors MCuQF (M=Ba, Sr; Q=S, Se, Te) are described. Band-gap tuning and improvement in conductivity through p-type doping are demonstrated in the family. The...

The chemistry and device applications of amorphous thin-film interfaces

Creator:: Knutson, Christopher C.
Abstract:: Solid-state amorphous materials show amazing promise in thin-film electronics. The interface-to-bulk ratio of thin films makes interfacial chemistries of these systems of utmost importance. Thin films of amorphous metals, dielectrics and semiconductors have novel chemistries that are not only based upon their elemental constituent makeup, but also based upon the...

Catalytic desymmetrization of D₂d̳-symmertic proprochiral tetrasubstituted biphenyl compounds: a novel approach to the synthesis of axially chiral C₂-symmetric molecules

Creator:: Gunderson, Jeremey Tyson
Abstract:: Many D2d-symmetric 2,2',6,6'-tetrasubstituted biphenyls are readily prepared via net oxidative dimerization of appropriate 1,3-disubstituted benzenes. Conversion of such proprochiral compounds to useful C2-symmetric chiral biphenyls requires formal replacement of two substituents on opposing aryl ring units with alternate groups. This under exploited desymmetrization tactic has been demonstrated for the generation...

Comparison between lichen, conifer needles, resin-based passive air sampling devices (PASDs), and snow to monitor semi-volatile organic compounds (SOCs) in the atmosphere

Creator:: Schrlau, Jill E.
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to compare four different media that were used to monitor SOC atmospheric concentrations in remote ecosystems. The accumulation of semi-volatile organic compounds, including pesticides, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), was investigated in lichen, 2-year old conifer needles, resin-based passive air sampling...

Development of novel analytical methods to detect emerging contaminants in aqueous environmental matrices using large-volume injection

Creator:: Backe, Will J.
Abstract:: It is the responsibility of humans, as environmental stewards, to monitor our impact on the environment so that efforts can be made to remediate the effects of our actions and change behaviors. To better understand our environmental footprint, sensitive and simple analytical methods are needed to quantify the contaminants that...

Structure-property relationships of layered oxypnictides

Creator:: Muir, Sean W.
Abstract:: Investigating the structure-property relationships of solid state materials can help improve many of the materials we use each day in life. It can also lead to the discovery of materials with interesting and unforeseen properties. In this work the structure property relationships of newly discovered layered oxypnictide phases are presented...
