Structural Characterization and Impedance Spectroscopy of Substituted, Fused-Ring Organic Semiconductors.
(2011)
Organic materials present a number of advantages over silicon that make them ideal candidates for modest performance devices like active matrix backplanes and RFID tags. The work detailed here describes both structural ...
In Situ Polymerization via an Environmentally-borne Initiation Stimulus.
(2016)
The utilization of an environmentally-borne stimulus, atmospheric oxygen, has been convincingly demonstrated as a useful means for initiating in situ polymerization. As molecular oxygen is both ubiquitous and capable of ...
Understanding the Optical and Photophysical Properties of Organic and Hybrid Macromolecules and Polymers for Solar Cell Application
(2021)
Organic solar cell materials represent a better sustainable alternative relative to inorganic materials in terms of lower cost, ease of large-scale processing, better absorptivity, ease of tunability, and unique flexibility ...
Continuum-Scale Modeling of Rechargeable Batteries
(2020)
During the operation of a rechargeable battery, the electrochemical reactions occur at the interface between the electrolyte and the active material in the electrode. The electrochemical performance of such batteries is ...
Growth, Characterization and Assembly of Lead Chalcogenide Nanosemiconductors for Ionizing Radiation Sensors
(2022)
The demand for precise and efficient nuclear radiation detection has increased dramatically, particularly in numerous scientific disciplines, as well as homeland security and medical imaging applications. Modern methods ...
Predicting the Formation Pathways and Morphologies of Oxygenated Carbonaceous Nanoparticle Precursors in Premixed Flames
(2017)
Organic nanoparticles are an inevitable by-product of combustion phenomena that have deleterious health and environmental effects. They are carcinogenic because they damage biological cells due to their small size and their ...
Fundamental and Applied Electrochemistry for Photonic Applications
(2020)
Photonic devices that selectively transmit or reflect light are highly desirable in a wide variety of applications, including energy harvesting, aesthetic decorations and optical displays. However, most of these high ...
Development Of Microcompartmentalization Using Macromolecules And Liquid-Liquid Interfaces.
(2016)
Compartmentalization combined with regulated exchange and release of biomaterials is the key biological function. At the subcellular level, organelles sequester enzymes and substrates for storage while processing and ...
Biological Applications of Surfaces with Extreme Wettabilities
(2019)
Surfaces with extreme wettabilities have become an increasingly popular topic due to their wide range of applications – from simply keeping dirt off clothing to oil-water separation in the event of an oil spill. In particular, ...
Temporal and Spatial Nanobiomaterials for Tissue Engineering and Drug Delivery
(2020)
The intersection of materials science, biology, and nanotechnology has allowed for the development of advanced nanobiomaterials for tissue engineering and drug delivery. With more knowledge of how physical and chemical ...
