  • Using Metal-Oxo Clusters to Expand Actinide Chemistry

    Creator:
    Colliard, Ian
    Abstract:
    A molecular approach to metal oxides allows to the study to fundamental bonding and formation behavior for such metals. Moreover, the molecular nature of such oxides or metal-oxo clusters allows the possibility of exploitation of the properties of the parent oxides. The tetravalent metals, in specific, (M=Zr, Hf, Ce, Th,...

  • Synthesis and Solution Characterization of Metal-Oxo Photoresist Precursors

    Creator:
    Hutchison, Danielle C.
    Abstract:
    Metal-oxo clusters can be described as soluble pieces of metal-oxide frameworks. Currently, metal-oxo clusters are being considered as solution-based precursors for extreme ultraviolet (EUV, 13.5 nm) photoresist materials, which are a crucial component in the fabrication of microelectronic devices. Two different photoresist precursor systems have been investigated – alkyltin clusters...

  • Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Metal-Oxo Clusters as the Building Blocks in Nature and Synthesis

    Creator:
    Amiri, Mehran
    Abstract:
    Metal-oxo clusters can be described as soluble pieces of metal-oxide frameworks. Metal-oxo clusters are also the building blocks for the Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) and coordination polymers. A better knowledge of metal-oxo clusters helps fundamentally understand geosciences, molecular engineering, catalysis, single-molecule magnetism, and MOFs for synthesis, design, and modification of these...

  • Exploring the Distinct Solution Behavior of Isostructural Polycoltanates

    Creator:
    Fullmer, Lauren
    Abstract:
    Polyoxometalates are a rapidly growing class of discrete metal oxide clusters with a wide range of applications including functional materials. These anionic clusters of the group V and VI transition metals are inexpensive and non-toxic. Within group V polyoxometalates, niobium and tantalum chemistry has been underdeveloped owing to their unique...

  • Polyoxoniobates: fundamental solubility trend and their application in solution and on the surface of thin films

    Creator:
    Rahman, Tasnim
    Abstract:
    Polyoxometalates (POMs) are anions consisting of three or more early transition metals ™ (Gr V and VI) oxoanions (in their highest oxidation state) linked together by a shared oxygen bond to form a 3D framework. Polyoxometalates (POMs) are a rapidly growing class of metal oxo clusters with a wide range...

  • 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...

  • Structural Elucidation of Metal-Oxo Systems by X-Ray Scattering Methods

    Creator:
    Kozma, Karoly
    Abstract:
    Metal-oxo clusters are discrete molecular metal-oxides. Most metals form numerous cluster compounds that can be ligated, unligated, charged or neutral, controlling their solubility in water and/or organic solvents. They are important species to study reaction pathways from the monomeric building units to the bulk metal oxides, and have many application...

  • Synthesis and Characterization of Alkylammonium Salts of Butyltin-Polyoxotungstates for Thin Film Functionalization

    Creator:
    Olsen, Morgan R.
    Abstract:
    Metal-oxo clusters are discrete, soluble pieces of bulk metal oxide. Cluster size, monodispersity, and chemical properties allow for potential use as solution-based precursors for functional metal oxide films. Classical monoalkyltin-oxo clusters are either charge neutral or stabilized by anions. The structure of Cs₄.₅H₂.₅[(BuSn)₃(α-SiW₉O₃₇)]*2H₂O enables its use in established ion exchange...

  • Formation of hybrid supramolecular assemblies using biological molecules and transition metals

    Creator:
    Smith, Rachelle M. S.
    Abstract:
    Naturally occurring assemblies, such as DNA and proteins, utilize intermolecular forces (i.e H-bonding and van der Waals) to assemble. Utilizing these electrostatic interactions has only just started in the past five decades to be a tool used in synthetic chemistry in what is known as supramolecular chemistry. Supramolecular chemistry has...
