  • Tuning Functional Properties of Pyrochlore and Related Oxides via Cation and Anion Substitutions

    Creator:
    Giampaoli, Gabriella C. S.
    Abstract:
    Inorganic structures play an important role in materials due to their versatility and diversity. A complete understanding of the structure of a material is vital to enhance the creation of new materials that fill voids in research. The rational design of these compounds is driven by the exploitation of structure-property...

  • Aqueous chemistries for oxide electronics

    Creator:
    Meyers, Stephen T.
    Abstract:
    The variegated aqueous chemistries of metal cations are applied to the design and synthesis of non-toxic solution precursors suitable for additive printing of large-area oxide electronics. Polycondensation behaviors of aqueous Al+3 and PO4 +3 are manipulated in the deposition of atomically smooth amorphous aluminum oxide phosphate (AlPO) dielectric films. AlPO...

  • Investigation of the structural influence on the properties of functional inorganic oxides

    Creator:
    Laurita-Plankis, Geneva
    Abstract:
    While properties are extremely important from an application point of view, it is crucial to have a detailed understanding of the underlying structural influence. Once a concrete correlation between the structure and the observed property is established, rational design of novel materials with optimized properties can be realized. These optimized...

  • 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...

  • The chemistry and device applications of amorphous thin-film interfaces

    Creator:
    Knutson, Christopher C.
    Abstract:
    Solid-state amorphous materials show amazing promise in thin-film electronics. The interface-to-bulk ratio of thin films makes interfacial chemistries of these systems of utmost importance. Thin films of amorphous metals, dielectrics and semiconductors have novel chemistries that are not only based upon their elemental constituent makeup, but also based upon the...

  • Precursor Chemistry and Film Structure and Properties via Solution Deposition

    Creator:
    Huang, Yu
    Abstract:
    Chemistry of preparing dense film from solution deposition is explored with several cases in this thesis. Surface dense structure, conversion at melting point, and ion exchange in aqueous solution are the main topics covered here for the thin films of aluminum oxide phosphate and tin dioxide. Thin film density, optical...

  • Preparation and characterization of polymer-SiO₂ hybrids

    Creator:
    Ferguson, Morgan L.
    Abstract:
    In a search for designed materials that mimic those found in biological systems, combining polymers with inorganic materials in sol-gel chemistry processes has gained momentum in the research world since the 1990's. This work methodically investigated the properties of several related polymer-SiO₂ hybrids prepared by a simple methodology that could...

  • 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...

  • Aqueous complexation of citric acid and DTPA with selected trivalent and tetravalent f-elements

    Creator:
    Brown, M. Alex
    Abstract:
    Carboxylic acids have played an important role in the field of actinide (An) and lanthanide (Ln) separations and the reprocessing of irradiated nuclear fuel. Recent bench-scale experiments have demonstrated that 3-carboxy-3-hydroxypentanedioic acid (citric acid) is a promising aqueous complexant that can effectively aid in the separation of transition metals from...

  • Structure-property relationships of oxides with hexagonal AMO₃ and brownmillerite related structures

    Creator:
    Jiang, Peng
    Abstract:
    Transition metal oxides exhibit potential in various application fields due to the special d-electrons. Solid state chemistry focuses on discovering the structure-property relationships. The work in this thesis mainly discusses compounds with hexagonal or brownmillerite-type structure and their practical properties. Hexagonal YIn[subscript 1-x]Fe[subscript x]O₃ (x = 0-0.3, 0.7-1.0) phases have...
