  • Ionic Strength and pH: A Look at Nanostar Stability

    Creator:
    Aldous, Tanner J. E.
    Abstract:
    Nanostars have many potential applications, particularly in biomedicine, such as drug delivery, detection assays, and even cancer treatment. Seeing how their plasmon changes in response to changes to the environment of the nanostars can give us an insight to the stability of the nanostars. Our current studies involve the effect...

  • Isolation of New Niobium clusters with Alkali Carbonate

    Creator:
    Feng, Ching-Lei
    Abstract:
    Polyoxoniobates (PONbs) are attracting great attention in recent years due to its novelty as well as a variety of geometrical presentations in different pH conditions. In this paper we are reporting the reaction of tetramethyl-decaniobate ([(CH3)4N]6[Nb10O28]) with alkaline carbonates to observe the periodic trend of alkaline ions interacting with the...

  • CO₂ capture from wet flue gas using a water-stable and cost-effective metal-organic framework

    Creator:
    Loughran, Ryan P.
    Abstract:
    We report the use of MIL-120 as a water-stable and cost-effective metal-organic framework (MOF) for selectively capturing CO₂ from wet flue gas. Synthesized using inexpensive and environmentally benign reagents in water, MIL-120 possesses one-dimensional pores decorated with hydroxyl-bridged Al(III) ions and benzene rings with an interstitial spacing of 4.78 Å....

  • Probing Aqueous Ion-Pairing and Speciation of Group V Polyoxometalates

    Creator:
    Sures, Dylan J.
    Abstract:
    Polyoxometalates are discrete anionic oxo clusters of the Group V and VI transition metals that can be conceptualized as molecular metal oxides. Because they are pairable with any alkali cation, a great deal of fundamental chemistry can be gleaned from their study, including solubility trends and insight into cation binding...

  • Linden (Tilia cordata) associated bumble bee mortality : metabolomic analysis of nectar and bee muscle

    Creator:
    Lande, Claire, Rao, Sujaya, Morre, Jeffrey T., Galindo, Gracie, Kirby, Julie, Reardon, Patrick N., Bobe, Gerd, and Stevens, Jan Frederik
    Abstract:
    Linden (Tilia spp.), a profusely flowering temperate tree that provides bees with vital pollen and nectar, has been associated with bumble bee (Bombus spp.) mortality in Europe and North America. Bee deaths have been attributed, with inadequate evidence, to toxicity from mannose in nectar or starvation due to low nectar...

  • Total kinetic energy release in the fast neutron induced fission of actinide nuclei

    Creator:
    Loveland, Walter
    Abstract:
    The total kinetic energy release and fission mass distributions for the fast neutron (En = 3–100 MeV) induced fission of 232Th, 233U, 235U, 237Np, 239Pu, 240Pu, and 242Pu have been measured using the LANSCE facility. The neutron energies were deduced from time-of- flight measurements. The fission fragments were detected using...
