Design Principles of Transition Metal X-ide Catalysts for Electrochemical Oxygen Reduction and Evolution Reactions: In-Situ X-ray Spectroscopy Studies

Creator:: Wang, Maoyu
Abstract:: Hydrogen is the green fuel that can be produced from water through electrolysis and used via hydrogen fuel cells to generate electricity with zero carbon dioxide emission. The commercialization of electrolyzers and fuel cells is the critical step to achieving global carbon neutrality. However, it is severely hampered by the...

Transition Metal Oxides for Aqueous Electrochemical Energy Storage

Creator:: Jiang, Heng
Abstract:: In the 21st century, environmental deterioration is now an indisputable fact. Reliable and economically viable electricity systems based on renewable sources are urgently needed to replace the environmentally detrimental fossil fuels. The feasibility of incorporating renewable-but-intermittent solar and wind energy heavily depends on the development of cost-effective and safe technologies,...

Photoluminescence properties investigation of germanium inserted biosilica generated by bioreactor culture of marine diatom Nitzschia frustulum

Creator:: Qin, Tian
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to investigate the optoelectronic properties of the Ge doped biosilica, mainly focused on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of diatom frustules of N. frustulum that contain metabolically inserted germanium oxide produced by a two-stage photobioreactor cultivation process. In order to explain the observed PL intensity...

Nonthermal Plasma Microreaction Engineering for Gas and Liquid Processing

Creator:: Pommerenck, Justin
Abstract:: Atmospheric pressure plasma is non-thermal at millimeter to micrometer separations. It represents an alternative low exergy initiator of many chemical reactions. In many instances heat, light or sound are not efficient providers of the necessary energy to overcome chemical activation barriers. The focus of this research is applying dc nonthermal...

Magnetic particles for selective extraction of trace analytes in microfluidic devices

Creator:: Tennico, Yolanda H.
Abstract:: The development of micro total analysis systems (µTAS), also called “lab-on-a-chip”, or microfluidic analysis systems, is presented in this dissertation. Various research areas, covering subjects from magnetic particles synthesis to novel microchip fabrication techniques, are explored to develop a lab-on-a-chip system capable of performing magnetic bead-based bioassays. These devices are...

A novel lattice Boltzmann method for treatment of multicomponent convection, diffusion, and reaction phenomena in multiphase systems

Creator:: Parker, James Muirhead
Abstract:: In this work, a multicomponent lattice Boltzmann model is developed for the simulation of multiphase mixing, reactions, and separations processes. This model is unique in that diffusive mass transfer of a component in the model is driven by gradients of chemical potential. This fundamentally correct description of diffusion accurately captures...

Effect of cosputtered catalyst on growth and alignment of carbon nanotubes by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition

Creator:: Gunderson, Eric P.
Abstract:: The effect of cosputtered catalyst on growth and alignment of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) grown by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) was investigated. Aligned CNTs were observed using a cosputtered catalytic metal deposited directly on boro-aluminosilicate glass. Catalytic metal alloys were sputtered directly onto the substrate using magnetron sputtering. Deposition...

Femtosecond Stimulated Raman Studies of Excited State Structural Events

Creator:: Tang, Longteng
Abstract:: Femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS) is an ultrafast vibrational technique which allows rapid collection of Raman spectra with simultaneously high temporal and spectral resolution. With the recent development of FSRS methodology, three FSRS techniques (conventional, tunable, and anti-Stokes) have been implemented in our laboratory to dissect the excited state structural...

Controlling the Co-Precipitation of Colloidal PbSe Quantum Dots and Their Device Performance in a Diode Architecture

Creator:: McCrea, Tyler D.
Abstract:: In this work, colloidal PbSe quantum dots (QDs) are shown to be synthesized in a controlled manner by changing the growth time and reaction temperature in a microwave synthesis method. It is explained why quantum dots make such a unique material to create electronic devices and the specific benefits that...
