  • 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...

  • 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...

  • Deposition and characterization of thin films

    Creator:
    He, Shidong
    Abstract:
    Recent studies have indicated that nickel gallium alloys can be effective for the catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol. To simplify the characterization of NiGa catalysts, we are developing model systems using NiGa thin films. We prepared NiGa thin films by RF magnetron sputtering using an equiatomic alloy target, followed...

  • Understanding Charge and Mass Transfer Phenomena in Functional Oxide Heterostructures

    Creator:
    Samarakoon, Widitha
    Abstract:
    Oxides are a versatile class of materials with a wide range of electronic, optical, and magnetic properties. This makes them ideal for use in a multitude of functional devices for oxide electronics, electrochemical conversion, and storage. The overall performance of these devices is governed by atomic scale charge and mass...
