  • Synthesis, surface treatment, and characterization of copper indium sulfide quantum dots

    Creator:
    Alemu, Yagenetfere A.
    Abstract:
    The need for less toxic quantum dots (QDs) has led to a significant number of investigations related to copper indium sulfide (CIS) QDs. Lower toxicity and broad band absorbance width makes CIS QDs appealing for light emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, sensors, bio-imaging, solar cells, and computing. The optical and electronic...

  • Characterization and Investigations of Thin-Film Materials with X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

    Creator:
    Diulus, J. Trey
    Abstract:
    Surface characterization of materials is widely utilized over a range of disciplines and essential to the development of new materials, technology, or processes. Metal oxide nanoclusters have shown promise as potential new generation photoresist materials for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) nanolithography. Organotin clusters have been proposed as potential candidates for resist...

  • Functional materials for advanced energy and electronic devices

    Creator:
    Flynn, Brendan T.
    Abstract:
    Advances in energy technologies and electronics have typically occurred through either heightened performance or cost reduction. This dissertation explores both routes through a series of fundamental material studies that may contribute to the enabling of next generation devices. Solution based syntheses and deposition of chemical products offer a low cost...

  • Metal Oxide Cluster Chemistries for Next Generation Nanomanufacturing

    Creator:
    Frederick, Ryan T.
    Abstract:
    Metal oxide clusters are promising inorganic photoresists in next generation nanomanufacturing because of their potential for high-resolution and low line-edge roughness patterning, and exceptional sensitivity to extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation. In EUV patterning, absorption of EUV radiation leads to electron emission that serve as a primary species for driving radiation...

  • Characterization of CoGe Thin Films and Powders

    Creator:
    Pfau, Andrew James
    Abstract:
    Cobalt germanides have been widely studied as semiconductor contact materials, but recent theoretical studies suggest that they may also be excellent catalysts for methane steam reforming with stabilities and activities comparable to noble metal catalysts. In order to study the catalytic activity of cobalt germanides, it is critical to first...

  • UV-assisted lipoic acid ligand exchange of copper indium disulfide-zinc sulfide core-shell quantum dots

    Creator:
    Porth, Lane D.
    Abstract:
    Water-soluble quantum dots obtained through ligand exchange are widely applicable for biological imaging and marking, LEDs, and photovoltaics. Lipoic acid (LA) was reduced to dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) using 365-nm soft UV light in a process known as photoligation, and ligand exchange with dodecanethiol-capped CuInS₂-ZnS core-shell quantum dots occurred. The reaction...
