Deposition and characterization of transition metal oxides from aqueous solution

Creator:

Betterton, Sharon A.

Abstract:

The aqueous chemistries of two transition metal cations, Zr⁴⁺ and Nb⁵⁺, are examined and then used to develop inorganic precursor solutions. The oxides of these cations (ZrO₂ and Nb₂O₅) are deposited and characterized, and their morphological and optical properties discussed. Due to the obstacles created by niobium's aqueous chemistry, an...

Synthesis and evaluation of PEO-coated materials for microchannel-based hemodialysis

Creator:

Heintz, Keely

Abstract:

The marked increase in surface-to-volume ratio associated with microscale devices for hemodialysis leads to problems with hemocompatibility and blood flow distribution that are more challenging to manage than those encountered at the conventional scale. In this work, stable surface modifications with pendant polyethylene oxide (PEO) chains were produced on polycarbonate...

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...
