  • Solution deposition and characterization of the thin film inorganic materials

    Creator:
    Özmen, Bahar
    Abstract:
    The general emphasis of this work has been synthesis, characterization, and applications of n- and p-type inorganic oxide thin films that are deposited from solutions. In particular, a study of n-type transparent semiconductor films of tin (IV) oxide and zinc-doped tin (IV) oxide has been performed by spin coating. Solution...

    Mangalam, R. V. K., Smith, Andrew E., Boudin, S., McLoughlin, C., Subramanian, M. A., and Prellier, W.
    Abstract:
    The growth of YMn₀.₃₅In₀.₆₅O₃ thin films and their optical and magnetic behavior are reported. The YMn₀.₃₅In₀.₆₅O₃ thin film grows along the (0001) orientation with hexagonal structure similar to YMnO₃ on c-plane sapphire. The film shows paramagnetic behavior in the temperature range measured. The film exhibits a blue color due to...

  • The chemistry and device applications of amorphous thin-film interfaces

    Creator:
    Knutson, Christopher C.
    Abstract:
    Solid-state amorphous materials show amazing promise in thin-film electronics. The interface-to-bulk ratio of thin films makes interfacial chemistries of these systems of utmost importance. Thin films of amorphous metals, dielectrics and semiconductors have novel chemistries that are not only based upon their elemental constituent makeup, but also based upon the...

  • Atomic solid state energy scale applied to novel thin-film solar absorbers

    Creator:
    Pelatt, Brian D.
    Abstract:
    The atomic solid state energy (SSE) scale is introduced as a tool for inorganic materials design. The SSE scale is obtained by assessing an average electron affinity (EA) (for a cation) or an average ionization potential (IP) (for an anion) for each atom using data from compounds having that specific...

  • Synthesis and study of oxides and chalcogenides : thin films and crystals

    Creator:
    Park, Sangmoon
    Abstract:
    Several types of solid-state inorganic materials are prepared and characterized. By using the SILAR (Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption and Reaction) deposition method in conjunction with hydrothermal dehydration both low-temperature deposition and crystallization of oxide thin films are achieved. Various aspects of new transparent p-type materials are studied by examining both...

  • Copper and iron chalcogenides for efficient solar absorption

    Creator:
    Platt, Heather A. S.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation outlines two approaches for improving the efficiency and reducing the cost of photovoltaic energy generation. First, the structures of known binary copper and iron compounds are used to choose the promising compositions Fe₂XS₄ (X = Si, Ge), Cu₃TaQ₄ (Q = Se, Te), and BaCuQ'F (Q' = S, Se,...

  • New luminescent materials and high-performance solution-processed oxide thin films

    Creator:
    Jiang, Kai
    Abstract:
    Crystals of an incongruent-melting compound, Ba₃MgSi₂O₈, were grown by the flux method and its structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Ba₃MgSi₂O₈ crystallizes in trigonal space group P-3[bar]m1 with a = 5.6123(3) Å, c = 7.2667(9) Å and Z = 1. Eu²⁺ ions prefer one crystallographic Ba site...

  • Studies of Structurally Complex Thin Film Oxides for Electronic Materials

    Creator:
    Fast, Dylan Braucht
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, the structure and electronic properties of multiple metal oxide thin films are characterized and presented. Prompt inorganic condensation (PIC) of metal-oxo and –hydroxo clusters was evaluated as a technique for making metal oxide clusters in two separate studies. The first focuses on the synthesis of lithium niobate...

    Creator:
    Flynn, Brendan T.
    Abstract:
    Advances in energy technologies and electronics have typically occurred through either heightened performance or cost reduction. This dissertation explores both routes through a series of fundamental material studies that may contribute to the enabling of next generation devices. Solution based syntheses and deposition of chemical products offer a low cost...
