  • Structure-property relationships of oxides with hexagonal AMO₃ and brownmillerite related structures

    Creator:
    Jiang, Peng
    Abstract:
    Transition metal oxides exhibit potential in various application fields due to the special d-electrons. Solid state chemistry focuses on discovering the structure-property relationships. The work in this thesis mainly discusses compounds with hexagonal or brownmillerite-type structure and their practical properties. Hexagonal YIn[subscript 1-x]Fe[subscript x]O₃ (x = 0-0.3, 0.7-1.0) phases have...

  • New Inorganic Pigments from Mineral Structures

    Creator:
    Schettini Mejia, Carlo A.
    Abstract:
    The discovery of new blue pigments is a field of great interest, as commercially available pigments present properties that make them undesirable such as poor sustainability, cost, and stability. By researching solid solutions with the melilite structure, we discovered a new solid solution Sr2Zn1-xNixGe2O7, with 0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.6,...

  • Structure-property Relationships of Transition Metal Oxides Containing Precious Metals

    Creator:
    Hapuraja Pathirannehelage, Vidhara H. P.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation presents a study of structure-property relationships within 3d/4d metal oxides containing precious metals through detailed structure refinements using high-resolution neutron and X-ray diffraction data along with exploration of the resultant properties. Oxides of 4d or 5d transition metals tend to show new topological phases due to significant spin-orbit...

  • Cation Substitution Effects in Complex Transition Metal Oxides

    Creator:
    Duell, Brett A.
    Abstract:
    Understanding structural evolution in solids as composition changes is essential to materials properties prediction. Such structure-properties relationships are the theme of solid state chemistry. Materials scientists and chemists have utilized an abundance of simple crystal structures to enhance understanding of chemical and structural origins of properties in materials for decades....

  • Exploratory Studies Within the Exotic Lyonsite Structure

    Creator:
    Tang, Joseph N.
    Abstract:
    Structure-property relationships have always underpinned the field of solid state chemistry; dependable structural descriptions are integral to understanding and controlling the physical properties of inorganic compounds old and new. While a handful of crystal structures are celebrated for their versatility, flexibility, and functionality, the existence of more exotic structures is...

  • Substitution Effects on the Structure and Electronic Behavior of Ternary Precious Metal Oxides

    Creator:
    Flynn, Joshua
    Abstract:
    Due to the high cost of precursor materials, complex oxides of 4d and 5d transition metals are under-studied compared to their 3d counterparts. Recent studies have shown that oxides containing heavier transition metals can exhibit exotic electronic states due to presence of strong spin-orbit coupling. The goal of this dissertation...

  • Investigation of the structural influence on the properties of functional inorganic oxides

    Creator:
    Laurita-Plankis, Geneva
    Abstract:
    While properties are extremely important from an application point of view, it is crucial to have a detailed understanding of the underlying structural influence. Once a concrete correlation between the structure and the observed property is established, rational design of novel materials with optimized properties can be realized. These optimized...

  • Structure-property relationships of YbFe₂O₄-type layered transition metal oxides

    Creator:
    Grajczyk, Rosa
    Abstract:
    The structure–property relationships of solid solutions within the YbFe₂O₄ family of compounds have been studied in relation to their optical, dielectric and magnetic properties. This family of compounds is of recent interest because of the trigonal bipyramid coordination that is rarely observed in transition metal oxides. The systematic study of...
