Predicting the Percentage: Relating the Refractive Index to Effective Medium Theory in Combination Dielectric Films

Creator:: Farmer, Skylar
Abstract:: Transparent conductive oxides (TCO) are at the forefront of technology with their uses in touch screen phones and televisions, solar cells and more. Titanium dioxide and tin dioxide are two TCOs that have been studied in depth on their own, so to further explore these TCOs, this project focuses on...

Chemistry of High-Resolution Organotin Patterning Materials

Creator:: Kenane, Nizan
Abstract:: Organotin clusters have attracted notable attention for use as inorganic photoresists. This dissertation discerns dimeric and dodecameric organotin clusters, [(n-C₄H₉Sn)(OH)(H₂O)Cl₂]₂ (Sn₂) and [(n-C₄H₉Sn)₁₂O₁₄ (OH)₆ ]+ (Sn₁₂), both of which are stable hydrolysis and condensation products of n-C₄H₉SnCl₃. This work identifies Sn₂ as a superior precursor choice for solution deposition of...

Fundamental Investigations of Electrocatalysis: Mechanistic Implications of Catalyst Electronic Structure

Creator:: Carvalho, O. Quinn
Abstract:: Heterogeneous catalysis modulates the rate and selectivity of reaction processes by stabilizing a series of intermediate states on solid surfaces, facilitating the production of many commodity chemicals modern society relies upon. Conventional, thermal catalytic processes—conducted at elevated temperatures and pressures—source thermal, mechanical, and chemical potential energy from carbon-hydrogen bonds— combustion...

Investigation of MoS2 with Ambient Pressure X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

Creator:: Dardzinski, Derek P.
Abstract:: Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has potential applications as a low-cost catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Defects on MoS2, such as edge sites and sulfur vacancies, are known to be the major active sites for HER. Controlling the formation of these defects allows for the enhancement in reactivity of MoS2...

Growth, Characterization, and Application of Antimony Sulfide Thin Films via a Novel Microreactor Assisted Nanomaterial Deposition for Solid State Batteries

Creator:: Chun, Bryan H.
Abstract:: The continuous development of higher performing battery materials has emerged in parallel with the development of new manufacturing processes. Nanomaterials are one solution to addressing the cycling and performance challenges that limit existing battery cells. However, many of the methods used today for nanomaterial synthesis are high temperature batch methods...

Oxidation of Amorphous Metal Alloy Surfaces Studied Using Ambient Pressure X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

Creator:: Alzaga Elizondo, Pedro
Abstract:: Amorphous metal thin films (AMTFs) are of growing interest due to their unique mechanical properties and chemical stability. AMTFs have an advantage over polycrystalline metal films due to the lack of grain boundaries which gives AMTFs added durability and relatively smoother surfaces. For this reason, AMTFs have been investigated as...

Investigations of catalytic CO oxidation : effects of alloying copper and palladium

Creator:: Kristy, Stephen T.
Abstract:: The oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) to carbon dioxide (CO2) is ubiquitous throughout many industrial processes and is a common probe reaction used to help understand catalytic systems in research settings. The reaction is essential in power generation and transportation exhaust gas treatment technologies to ensure environmental safety, because CO...

Characterization and theoretical analysis of the effect of geometry on electrical characteristics of flexible thin film transistors

Creator:: Chattopadhyay, Shirsopratim
Abstract:: Flexible Electronics is a fast developing technology that is set to revamp and revolutionize conventional electronics through the development of devices that are easily conformable to surfaces of any arbitrary geometry. Such devices would have vast applications in areas where the rigidity of traditional silicon based electronics is undesirable, such...

The Design and Construction of a Cost-Effective Atomic Layer Deposition System for Thin Film Growth

Creator:: Hong, Youngjoon
Abstract:: This paper describes the construction and use of a cost-effective custom-built atomic layer deposition (ALD) system, as well as the investigation of aluminum oxide atomic layer deposition using trimethylaluminum and water. For this research, a cost-effective ALD system was constructed for less than $8,000 using existing parts that were given...

An Investigation into the Production of Longer Hydrocarbons, Synthesis Gas, and Ammonia via a Nonthermal Plasma Microreactor

Creator:: Reddick, Ian T.
Abstract:: Nonthermal electrical plasmas can allow energy intensive reactions to occur without the use of high operating temperatures or pressures. This is because the collisions of electrons accelerated through an electric field with molecules is the cause of reactions as opposed to thermal collisions between molecules. In this study, the production...
