  • Structure-property relationships in oxides containing select platinum group metals

    Creator:
    Gatimu, Alvin J.
    Abstract:
    Oxide materials exhibit a wide variety of structures and properties. In particular, transition metal oxides tend to be highly stable while exhibiting a wide range of properties that can be used for numerous applications. This work focuses on investigating how the structures’ of 4d and 5d transition metal oxides influences...

  • On the Properties and Characteristics of Solution Processed Hafnium Based Thin-Films from Aqueous Precursors

    Creator:
    Decker, Shawn R.
    Abstract:
    Aqueous hydroxo Hf nanoclusters enable studies to identify and codify steps in the deposition of Hf-based oxide thin films from solution precursors. HfOCl2 reacts with combinations of H2O2(aq), acids, and TMAH to produce polymetal species at high pH and low pH. X-ray scattering and spectroscopic methods reveal the nature of...

  • Cation Substitution Effects in Complex Transition Metal Oxides

    Creator:
    Duell, Brett A.
    Abstract:
    Understanding structural evolution in solids as composition changes is essential to materials properties prediction. Such structure-properties relationships are the theme of solid state chemistry. Materials scientists and chemists have utilized an abundance of simple crystal structures to enhance understanding of chemical and structural origins of properties in materials for decades....

  • New multi-functional chalcogenides for photovoltaic and thermoelectric materials

    Creator:
    Heo, Jaeseok
    Abstract:
    The subject of this PhD thesis is part of a research domain of great present interest in new semiconductor materials for photovoltaic and thermoelectric applications. This domain contains the elaboration and the study of both Cu-based chalcogenides bulk and thin-film samples, driven by materials design principles. One of the most...

  • Structure-Property Relationships of Disordered Electronic Materials : From Crystalline to Amorphous

    Creator:
    Surta, Todd Wesley, Jr.
    Abstract:
    Two perovskite materials (Bi0.5(A)0.5)(Sc0.5Nb0.5)O3, where A = K+ and Na+ were synthesized phase pure for the first time. Their structures were determined by indexing synchrotron X-ray diffraction data and subsequent combined Rietveld refinement on neutron and synchrotron X-ray diffraction data revealing significant disorder on the A-sites of these materials. A...

  • Structure-property relationships of layered oxypnictides

    Creator:
    Muir, Sean W.
    Abstract:
    Investigating the structure-property relationships of solid state materials can help improve many of the materials we use each day in life. It can also lead to the discovery of materials with interesting and unforeseen properties. In this work the structure property relationships of newly discovered layered oxypnictide phases are presented...
