  • Solvent Extraction Behavior of Mixed N, O-Donor Ligands for Separation of Trivalent f-Elements

    Creator:
    Karslyan, Yana
    Abstract:
    Nowadays selective separation processes are sought after more than ever before. They are indispensable to meet the growing demand for individual rare earth elements, minor actinides partitioned from fission-produced lanthanides, as well as, overall, more concentrated and high-purity products. This research focuses on such separation techniques as solvent extraction which...

  • Photoresist and ion-exchange chemistry of HafSOx

    Creator:
    Telecky, Alan J.
    Abstract:
    The chemistry of hafnium oxide based and materials are described in the context of ion exchange and lithography. HafSOx, represented by the composition HfO₂₋[subscript x](SO₄)x, is described to possess a significant capacity towards ion exchange in acidic and basic solutions, enabling films of HafSOx to be cleanly and readily be...

  • Precursor-directed Biosynthesis and Total Synthesis of Aniline-containing Natural Products from the Endophytic Fungus Chalara sp. 6661

    Creator:
    Khoshbakht, Mahsa
    Abstract:
    Chalaniline A, an unusual xanthone-like aminofulvene with modest cytotoxicity, and chalaniline B [1-anilino-2,8-dihydroxy-3-(hydroxymethyl)xanthone], an antibacterial aminoxanthone, were previously isolated by Loesgen and coworkers from vorinostat-treated Chalara sp. 6661. Of note, the anilino moiety found within both chalaniline structures originates from biotransformation of the HDAC inhibitor vorinostat (SAHA, suberanilohydroxamic acid) by...

  • The Role of Materials Chemistry in Designing Advanced Color Inorganic Pigments

    Creator:
    Medina, Elena A.
    Abstract:
    The results of the research presented in this work are related to synthesis and investigations of novel color inorganic pigments having various structures and shades. Inorganic pigments play a major role in contemporary life. They are used in paints, rubber, plastic, cosmetics etc. Searching for new, stable, environmentally benign and...

  • Volatile Organic Compound Production in Synechococcus WH8102

    Creator:
    Ocel, Duncan R.
    Abstract:
    High-resolution mass spectrometry was used to measure a range of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in real time as they were produced by the ubiquitous marine cyanobacterium Synechococcus WH8102 during a 24-hour light/dark cycle. Ethenone, acetaldehyde, ethanol, isoprene, acetic acid, dimethyl sulfide (DMS), acetone, phenol, and several as-yet unidentified compounds were...

  • Functionalization of carbon nanotubes for effective biosensing and potential biomedical applications

    Creator:
    Adenuga, Adeniyi A.
    Abstract:
    Since their discovery in the 1990s, the great potential of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has made them a focus of many research endeavors, including their application as components of biosensors. The inherent chemical "inertness" of CNTs makes their application to biosensing a challenge. It is necessary to "decorate" their surfaces to...

  • Metal-oxo Clusters as Novel Photolithographic Materials: How Understanding the Chemistry of HafSOx Informs Next-Generation Patterning Systems

    Creator:
    Amador, Jenn M.
    Abstract:
    The solution chemistry and kinetic behavior of hafnium peroxy sulfate solutions ("HafSOx") is described in terms of peroxide content and solution speciation. Additionally, thin film behavior, including thermal behavior and solubility, is characterized, and a mechanism of patterning is presented, as well as parameters that should be considered when looking...

  • Reorientation in Alternative Break Trips

    Creator:
    Phillips, Caitlin Patricia
    Abstract:
    When a student participates in a service break trip, a process called reorientation occurs after the trip is over, when the student is trying to connect what they’ve learned on the trip to their normal lives. The objective of this project was to explore the concepts of volunteerism, community service,...

  • Surface composition and orientation of room temperature ionic liquids

    Creator:
    Law, George
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, we investigated the surface composition and orientation of both pure room-temperature ionic liquids (Ils) and binary mixtures of the ILs of the type consisting of the 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium ([C[subscropt n]mim]⁺, n=4, 8, and 12) cation coupled with either [PF₆]⁻, [BF₄]⁻, [Cl]⁻, or [Br]⁻. The surfaces of the ILs...

  • Catching Ions in Superfluid Helium Droplets

    Creator:
    Chen, Lei
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, I describe the experimental investigation of catching ions in superfluid helium droplets. The ultimate goal of our project is to build a coherent electron diffraction apparatus for atomic structure determination from oriented single macromolecules. This involves generating protein ions from electrospray ionization (ESI) and doping them in...
