Optical, electronic, and thermodynamic properties of layered mixed anion compounds

Creator:

Vielma, Jason Michael

Abstract:

Mixed anion compounds that form ZrCuSiAs-type crystal structures exhibit remarkable properties such as superconductivity at low temperatures, hole conduction with optical transparency in the visible region, and exciton absorption at room temperature. In this thesis, properties of a selected group of materials out of the very large set of mixed...

In silico screening of nanoporous materials for gas sensing and separation

Creator:

Gantzler, Nickolas

Abstract:

The utility of high-throughput, computational screening has become an invaluable asset to the field of materials science. In the hierarchy of computational methods, the most accurate methods are often the most computationally expensive. However, as both the efficiency and fidelity of numerical techniques advance, high-quality screening of large materials datasets...

Connecting local values and forest policy to the international forest sustainability dialogue

Creator:

Morré, Susan K.

Abstract:

Sustainable management of the world’s forests is a key component for conserving biodiversity, soil and water resources, mitigating climate change, strengthening economies, and promoting sustainable communities and human well-being, now and in the future. While international cooperation is important, the actual policies and management actions that affect forest conditions and...
