  • Cu-Ga-S/ZnS Quantum Dots with Silica Melting Gel as a Luminescent Downshifting Coating for Enhancing Solar Photovoltaic Power Generation

    Creator:
    Chen, Si-Hao
    Abstract:
    Solar cells, also known as photovoltaic devices, are a class of renewable energy systems that can convert photons into electrons without the carbon dioxide emission. Short-wavelength, high-energy photons in the ultraviolet (UV) range can't be efficiently utilized by most solar cells because of the spectral mismatch. Luminescent downshifting is a...

  • A Fabrication Process and Analysis of ZnO-ZnS-Sb₂S3₃ Thin Film Solar Cells

    Creator:
    Catherall, David
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this research is to provide a simple fabrication method for zinc oxide and antimony sulfide based thin film solar cells. Both a ZnO nanorod electron conducting structure and a stibnite absorber show promise in a solar cell. Initial attempts at using only ZnO and Sb2S3, however, resulted...

  • Growth, Characterizations, and Applications of Patterned Nanostructured Thin Film

    Creator:
    Gao, Zhongwei
    Abstract:
    A unique microreactor-assisted nanomaterial synthesis and printing process was studied for the fabrication of patterned metal oxide nanostructured thin films. The process uses a continuous flow microreactor to control and generate a reactive chemical flux that was transported to a patterned microfluidic channel. The microreactor-assisted nanomaterial synthesis process can generate...

  • Investigation of Magnesium Dioxybenzenedicarboxylate (Mg-DOBDC) Thin-film Deposition onto Modified Glass Substrates

    Creator:
    Haning, Evan J.
    Abstract:
    Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline compounds formed from reacting a metal ion with an organic ligand. They represent a promising new avenue in materials science for gas separations and storage. Certain MOFs, in particular Mg-MOF-74, have shown a strong affinity for the capture of CO2. This project investigated a known...

  • Fabrication of Biological Pigment Nanowires by Inkjet Printing

    Creator:
    Cao, Yu
    Abstract:
    Digital inkjet printing is developing quickly today because inkjet printing processes consume less energy and water and produce less waste discharge than traditional dyeing and other printing technologies. Inkjet printing provides more versatility and flexibility in terms of printing patterns and colors. Natural pigments are gaining more attention today as...

  • Formation of Cu₂ZnSnS₄ Thin Films via Reactive Sintering of Binary Metal-Sulfide Nanoparticles Using Intense Pulsed Light

    Creator:
    Zeng, Cheng
    Abstract:
    Copper zinc tin sulfide (CZTS) is a potential solar material for thin film solar cells according to its suitable band gap in the visible light range, high absorption coefficient, low toxicity, good photostability and relative earth abundance of component elements. However, the production cost of this solar thin film material...

  • Solution-based Chalcogenide Thin Film Deposition

    Creator:
    Pan, Changqing
    Abstract:
    As a group of promising semiconductor materials, metal chalcogenides in thin film form have been widely used in electronics and optoelectronics applications, such as solar cell devices and photon sensors. Unfortunately, the film size and product throughput are limited by the current vacuum-based thin film deposition techniques. Solution-based thin film...

  • Experimental Study of Nucleate Boiling Bubble Dynamics and Heat Transfer Enhancement on Printed Bi-functional Surfaces

    Creator:
    David, Michele
    Abstract:
    Boiling heat transfer is studied for its ability to dissipate high fluxes and achieve heat transfer coefficients two orders of magnitude greater than single-phase heat transfer systems. Heater surface enhancement with increased surface area, varied geometry, wettability contrast and micro/nano-structures can further enhance boiling heat transfer performance through bubble nucleation...
