Modeling Arctic melt ponds using a resolved ice model with GCM forcing

Creator:: Collins, Lee E.
Abstract:: The albedo of Arctic sea ice depends greatly on the formation of melt ponds. These ponds form in depressions on the ice as surface snow melts during the summer months, and their location is determined mainly by the initial snow topography. Using a high resolution sea ice model forced with...

Functional transition metal oxides : structure-property relationships

Creator:: Smith, Andrew E.
Abstract:: Transition metal oxides are an important class of materials for the wide variety optical, electrical, dielectric, magnetic, and thermal properties observed. Their unique structure-property relationships allow for property tuning and often provide insight into the fundamentals of chemistry. The work in this thesis was focused on the design, synthesis and...

Synthesis and Solution Behavior of Tetravalent Metal Clusters with Ammonium Counterions

Creator:: Brown, Jessica C.
Abstract:: Global interest in reducing carbon emissions by use of alternative energy sources makes nuclear energy production and the impacts of the nuclear energy cycle relevant. Studying the aqueous speciation of tetravalent metals commonly used for nuclear energy (uranium, thorium, plutonium) can inform us of general metal properties and their behavior...

Thin-Film Dielectric Structure of Spin-Coated ZrO2 from Aqueous Inorganic Solution

Creator:: Moreno Luna, Hidekel A.
Abstract:: An inorganic aqueous precursor for the deposition of ZrO2 thin films via spincoating was developed. Hydrolysis and condensation chemistries of ZrOCl₂·8H₂O were used as the principal reactions to guide the synthesis. Refractive index, n, for a film annealed at 300 °C at 550 nm was measured to be n=1.97 by...

Detection techniques for biomolecules using semi-conductor nanocrystals and magnetic beads as labels

Creator:: Chatterjee, Esha
Abstract:: Continued interest in the development of miniaturized and portable analytical platforms necessitates the exploration of sensitive methods for the detection of trace analytes. Nanomaterials, on account of their unique physical and chemical properties, are not only able to overcome many limitations of traditional detection reagents but also enable the exploration...

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...

Substitutional Effects on the Electromechanical Properties of Lead-free, Piezoelectric (Na₀.₅Bi₀.₅)TiO₃-BaTiO₃ (NBT-BT)

Creator:: McQuade, Ryan R.
Abstract:: This work investigates the effect of cation substitution on the properties of the lead-free, solid solution (Na₀.₅Bi₀.₅)TiO₃-BaTiO₃ (NBT-BT). Substitution into NBT-BT increases disorder and increases the relaxor ferroelectric properties. These relaxor ferroelectric materials show large piezoelectric strains that can be utilized in actuator applications. Ceramic samples were prepared using standard...

Degradation of graphite electrodes in acidic bromine electrolytes

Creator:: Bistrika, Alexander A.
Abstract:: As the world's power needs grow, the demand for power from renewable resources, such as wind or solar is increasing. One major drawback associated with these renewable resources is that the power output is dependent on environmental factors, such as cloud cover and wind speeds. This allows the possibility of...

Metal-oxo Clusters as Novel Photolithographic Materials: How Understanding the Chemistry of HafSOx Informs Next-Generation Patterning Systems

Creator:: Amador, Jenn M.
Abstract:: The solution chemistry and kinetic behavior of hafnium peroxy sulfate solutions ("HafSOx") is described in terms of peroxide content and solution speciation. Additionally, thin film behavior, including thermal behavior and solubility, is characterized, and a mechanism of patterning is presented, as well as parameters that should be considered when looking...
