Experimental Study of Nucleate Boiling Bubble Dynamics and Heat Transfer Enhancement on Printed Bi-functional Surfaces

Creator:: David, Michele
Abstract:: Boiling heat transfer is studied for its ability to dissipate high fluxes and achieve heat transfer coefficients two orders of magnitude greater than single-phase heat transfer systems. Heater surface enhancement with increased surface area, varied geometry, wettability contrast and micro/nano-structures can further enhance boiling heat transfer performance through bubble nucleation...

Investigation of solution-based processes for functional metal oxides : printing, nanostructures, and applications

Creator:: Han, Seung-Yeol
Abstract:: The various solution-based processes, spin coating, inkjet printing, microreactor assisted nanoparticle deposition (MANDTM) and spin-successive ionic layer absorption and reaction (Spin-SILAR) were used to demonstrate thin film electronics and anti-reflective coatings. Several aspects of thin film transistors (TFTs) were tested including a range of temperatures, annealing atmosphere, and deposition methods....

Investigation of oxide semiconductor based thin films : deposition, characterization, functionalization, and electronic applications

Creator:: Rajachidambaram, Meena Suhanya
Abstract:: Nanostructured ZnO films were obtained via thermal oxidation of thin films formed with metallic Zn-nanoparticle dispersions. Commercial zinc nanoparticles used for this work were characterized by microscopic and thermal analysis methods to analyze the Zn-ZnO core shell structure, surface morphology and oxidation characteristics. These dispersions were spin-coated on SiO₂/Si substrates...

Application of Self-Assembled Monolayers to InGaZnO Thin Film Transistors

Creator:: Motley, Joshua R.
Abstract:: Investigations on the application of self-assembled monolayers (SAM) to indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) thin film transistors (TFT) for fabrication and channel modification are presented. The back channel of IGZO thin film transistors can be modified by the absorption of self-assembled monolayers. The electrical properties of the IGZO exposed back...

Understanding And Improving The Activity Of Oxygen Evolution Reaction Catalysts In Alkaline And Chloride-Containing Electrolytes

Creator:: Adiga, Prajwal Prakash
Abstract:: Water electrolysis plays a pivotal role in achieving a green hydrogen economy by sourcing electricity from intermittent renewable sources. However, the efficiency of the electrolysis process is limited by the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) kinetics, whereas the kinetics of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are more facile. This thesis...

Solution-based deposition of functional thin films : development of a glucose biosensor and thermal processing of CZTS nanoparticle films

Creator:: Durgan, Christopher J.
Abstract:: The development of solution-based methods for deposition of different thin film material is presented as an alternative to high cost vacuum-based methods. For certain materials, vacuum techniques are unsuitable for processing. Additionally, vacuum-based processes present high capital costs associated with equipment, and slow processing times. Atmospheric pressure solution based techniques...

Fouling characteristics of cooling tower water containing corrosion inhibitors

Creator:: Santoso, Elisabeth
Abstract:: The fouling characteristics of cooling tower water containing various corrosion inhibitors and other additives on heat transfer surface have been investigated. Corrosion inhibitors investigated included zinc-chromate and phosphates. In addition, additives including polyacrylate and phosphonate (HEDP and AMP) were used to determine their effectiveness as antifoulants. The tests were conducted...
