  • BaCuChF (Ch = S, Se, Te) p-type transparent conductors

    Creator:
    Zakutayev, Andriy
    Abstract:
    BaCuChF (Ch = S, Se, Te) materials are chalcogen-based transparent conductors with wide optical band gaps (2.9 – 3.5 eV) and a high concentration of free holes (10¹⁸ – 10²⁰ cm⁻³) caused by the presence of copper vacancies. Chalcogen vacancies compensate copper vacancies in these materials, setting the Fermi level...

  • Immune radio architecture for platform interference

    Creator:
    Alban, Eduardo
    Abstract:
    The decrease of switching times accompanied by the corresponding increase of clock speeds and data rates, contributes to improve the overall system computational performance. At the same time, they also affect wireless communications due to an increment in the emissions of electromagnetic radiation on the radio bands. In this dissertation...

  • Total Synthesis of Isotopologues of Xanthohumol and its Congeners for Biological Studies

    Creator:
    Plagmann, Layhna S.
    Abstract:
    Xanthohumol [XN, (E)-6´-methoxy-3´-(3-methylbuten-2-yl)-2´,4´,4´´-trihydroxychalcone], the principal prenylated chalcone from hops, and its 2,3-dihydro- (DXN) and O6-desmethyl-2,3-dihydro- (DDXN) congeners, are of potential utility for the amelioration of metabolic syndrome; however, their complex bioactivity profiles cannot be properly studied and understood without access to appropriately produced synthetic materials. In the first part of...

  • 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...

  • Total synthesis of sparteine alkaloids from a common tetraoxobispidine intermediate

    Creator:
    Melbardis, John
    Abstract:
    In previous work (Blakemore et al. Org. Lett. 2005, 7, 4721; Heterocycles 2006, 70, 609), successful elaborations of the lupine alkaloids (±)-α-isosparteine (dl-2) and (±)-β-isosparteine (dl-3) were realized from a common tetraoxobispidine precursor, 3,7-diallyl -2,4,6,8-tetraoxo-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (93). Herein, the tetraoxobispidine approach to lupine alkaloids was extended to a total synthesis of...

  • Cis-2,5-diaminobicyclo[2.2.2]octane : a novel C₂-symmetric scaffold for asymmetric catalysis

    Creator:
    Shaw, Subrata
    Abstract:
    This thesis describes the development of a new enantioselective synthetic method employing chiral cis-2,5-diaminobicyclo[2.2.2]octane-based organometallic catalysts. The significance of this new method to organic synthesis is illustrated with preparation of enantioenriched products that are transformed to important pharmaceutical agents. Chapter 1 provides a brief historical overview of asymmetric catalysis, especially...

  • Mode patterns in quadrupole resonator with anisotropic core

    Creator:
    Thongrattanasiri, Sukosin
    Abstract:
    This thesis deals with applications of uniaxial anisotropic crystals for microcavity resonators with partially chaotic underlying ray dynamics. We develop an implementation of the scattering matrix formalism, and relate the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the scattering matrix to the field distribution of inside the system. Using the developed technique, we...

  • Classical Density Functional for the Weeks-Chandler-Andersen Soft-Sphere Repulsive Potential using Soft Fundamental Measure Theory

    Creator:
    Finster, Kirstie L.
    Abstract:
    We present a classical density functional to model the soft, repulsive potential of a Weeks-Chandler-Andersen (WCA) fluid using Soft Fundamental Measure Theory (SFMT) with temperature-dependent parameters inspired by the Barker-Henderson method. Our functional uses soft spheres to model the soft-sphere WCA potential, and gives results that are in good agreement...

  • Electronic and Optical Properties of Defects in Amorphous Oxide and Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Semiconductors

    Creator:
    Vogt, Kyle
    Abstract:
    The optical and electronic properties of amorphous oxide thin films depend crucially on chemical composition, and deposition process variations which give rise to sub-gap defect states. Consequently, there is a need for a reliable, high-throughput method to extract sub-gap defect densities of states in amorphous oxide thin films. We present...

    Creator:
    Nirudodhi, Sasidhar N.
    Abstract:
    Proteins are essential to all biological systems. Proteins participate in numerous cellular processes by interacting with other proteins, other metabolites and membranes in a dynamic environment. Studying the structural and conformational properties of proteins in the solution phase is necessary to understand their protein folding and interaction dynamics. This research...
