  • Fundamental Studies of the Structure-Property Correlations of Na-ion and K-ion Storage in Non-Graphitic Carbon

    Creator:
    Li, Zhifei
    Abstract:
    Grid-scale energy storage systems are urgently needed to increase the flexibility and rigidity of the grid for modern society and take full advantage of the renewable green energy resources such as solar energy and wind energy. Na-ion batteries (NIBs) and K-ion batteries (KIBs) have been emerged as one of the...

  • Stereoselective synthesis & application of enantioenriched main group α-haloalkyl organometal reagents

    Creator:
    Emerson, Christopher R.
    Abstract:
    Sulfoxide-ligand exchange (SLE) and asymmetric halogen-metal exchange (AHME) processes were separately examined for the enantioselective synthesis of functionalized alpha-haloalkylmetal (carbenoid) reagents. Carbenoids derived from SLE were used to effect stereospecific reagent-controlled homologation (StReCH) of boronic esters and those generated via AHME were engaged in Darzens-type chemistry with aldehydes. Abstract for...

  • Displacement-based fluorescent microRNA biosensors : design principles and analytical metrics

    Creator:
    Larkey, Nicholas E.
    Abstract:
    One post-transcriptional mechanism that regulates the progression of cancer and other diseases involves small 22-23 nucleotide sequences called microRNA (miR). Early detection of small changes in concentration of these biomarkers holds potential to diagnose diseases at their earliest stages. Use of current nucleic-acid based biosensors, like molecular beacons, for in...

  • Structure-property relationships of layered oxypnictides

    Creator:
    Muir, Sean W.
    Abstract:
    Investigating the structure-property relationships of solid state materials can help improve many of the materials we use each day in life. It can also lead to the discovery of materials with interesting and unforeseen properties. In this work the structure property relationships of newly discovered layered oxypnictide phases are presented...

  • Studies toward the synthesis of halichlorine and pinnaic acid

    Creator:
    Korf, Eric A.
    Abstract:
    Three approaches toward the core of halichlorine and pinnaic acid are described. The first approach entails a racemic transannular nitrone-olefin [3+2] cycloaddition from nitrone 238. Construction of the nitrone 238 began with aldehyde 241. Another key feature in this route involved a ring-closing metathesis for the formation of a 14-membered...

  • Graphite intercalation compounds containing tetra-n-alkylammonium cations

    Creator:
    Sirisaksoontorn, Weekit
    Abstract:
    Novel donor-type graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) containing tetra-n-alkylammonium (TAA) cations have been synthesized by using both ion-exchange and electrochemical methods. Structural and compositional data of the resulting TAA-GICs are investigated by using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), one-dimensional electron density calculations, thermogravimetric and elemental analyses, and capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE). A...

  • Gold Nanostars: Spectroscopic and Physical Properties

    Creator:
    Zhou, Lixia
    Abstract:
    Tethering fluorophores on metal nanoparticles for metal enhanced fluorescence (MEF) has attracted a lot of attention from scientists interested in fluorescence based approaches. MEF has many benefits in fluorescence related techniques, because the analytical signal increases and enables potentially lower detection limits or better sensitivity. Many types of nanoparticles have...

  • Organic-solvent resistant ultrafiltration and nanofiltration membrane modules for separation and purification of nanoparticles

    Creator:
    Kim, Taehyeong
    Abstract:
    The intriguing size- and shape dependent properties of nanoparticles have garnered recent attention in many science and engineering areas. When the particle size is in the nanometer size range, the material exhibits very different properties such as surface plasmon resonance (of gold nanoparticles) and superparamagnetism (of iron oxide nanoparticles). The...

  • Designing Dielectric Materials through Complex Metal Oxides

    Creator:
    Nikkel, Jason W.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation demonstrated that the electrical properties of complex oxide-based perovskite materials could be controlled through the careful modification of both material composition and structure. This was first shown through the modification of lead zirconate titanate (Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3, PZT) solid solutions with bismuth indate (BiInO3, BI) where the relative stability of...
