  • Synthesis and study of oxides and chalcogenides : thin films and crystals

    Creator:
    Park, Sangmoon
    Abstract:
    Several types of solid-state inorganic materials are prepared and characterized. By using the SILAR (Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption and Reaction) deposition method in conjunction with hydrothermal dehydration both low-temperature deposition and crystallization of oxide thin films are achieved. Various aspects of new transparent p-type materials are studied by examining both...

  • Structure-property relationships in oxides containing tellurium

    Creator:
    Siritanon, Theeranun
    Abstract:
    Oxides of post-transition metals often show unique structures and properties due to the presence of lone pair electrons and the diffused s orbitals. The present work focuses on synthesis and characterizations of oxides containing Te, a heavy post transition metal. New series of pyrochlore oxides of the formula Cs(M,Te)₂O₆ (M...

  • High quantum-yield phosphors via quantum splitting and upconversion

    Creator:
    Jeong, Joayoung
    Abstract:
    The Gd3+ ion has been used to induce quantum splitting in luminescent materials by using cross-relaxation energy transfer (CRET). In Nd:LiGdF4, quantum splitting results from a two-step CRET between Gd3+ and Nd3+, first involving a transition 6G→6I on Gd3+ and an excitation within the 4f3 configuration of Nd3+ followed by...
