  • 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...

  • Transient electric birefringence for the characterization of cellulose nanocrystals and tobacco mosaic virus

    Creator:
    Taylor, Melissa J.
    Abstract:
    The development of a transient electric birefringence (TEB) apparatus for macroparticle characterization is herein discussed. The experimental difficulties encountered were related largely to poor data resolution. Misalignment and strain birefringence in optical components further complicated results. Improved data digitization methods were developed, and precise mathematical models were derived in order...

  • 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...

  • Tracking Photoinduced Primary Events with Femtosecond Stimulated Raman Spectroscopy and Calculations

    Creator:
    Wang, Yanli
    Abstract:
    Femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS) is a powerful ultrafast technique which can track photoinduced excited state structural events on femtosecond (fs) to picosecond (ps) timescales. In addition to high temporal and spectral resolutions, FSRS provides a broad spectral window from ca. 100—2000 cm-1 for detection, enabling the direct mapping of...
