Unique Structural Properties and Motifs of Metal-Oxides from Solids to Clusters

Creator:

Malmberg, Christopher E.

Abstract:

In this dissertation, the structural properties, thermodynamics and defect behavior of amorphous metal oxides and polyoxometalates are studied. Amorphous metal oxides have many applications, most notably as a semiconducting material used as the active matrix of thin film transistors. Alas, the amorphous nature of these materials makes studying them rather...

Expediting the Generation and Analysis of Amorphous Oxide Computational Models: Modeling Complex Systems Swiftly

Creator:

Buchanan, Jacob C.

Abstract:

In this dissertation, the process of computational modeling of amorphous oxide materials is studied. Amorphous oxides have random atomic arrangements with no long-range structural order which makes it difficult to study structure-property relationships. Despite the difficulties, amorphous oxides have great uses as semiconductors and dielectrics in thin-film transistors. The ability...
