Predicting the Effect of Local Conditions on Metal-oxides: Pt/γ-Al₂O₃ Interface and Degradation of α-Cr₂O₃ Passive Film

Creator:

Oware Sarfo, Kofi

Abstract:

Metal-oxides are very important in industrial applications such as thermal barrier coatings, corrosion protection, and heterogeneous catalysis. The wide variety of applications for metal-oxides are derived from the array of properties of metal-oxides. It is, therefore, important to understand and predict the conditions of synthesis and operation to optimize the...

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...

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,...
