Synthesis, morphologies and applications of polyoxometalate-containing diblock copolymers
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-01-31)
Block copolymers by virtue of their ability to self assemble and microphaseseparation
due to the contrast in chemical and physical properties of the covalently linked
blocks constitute the essential building blocks towards ...
Synthesis, Characterization and Device Studies of Conjugated Foldamers
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2017)
Conjugated polymers have found a wide range of electronic applications in last few
decades due to their superior combination of optoelectronic, mechanical properties, and
solution processability. In the past few years, ...
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH)-Based Conjugated Macrocycles and Polymers For Electronic Applications
(2014)
Due to the high tendency to form π-stacked ordered phases, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are attractive building blocks for the assembly of conjugated systems for electronic applications. The body of this ...
Studies of Conjugated Small Molecules, Polymers and Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Materials for Photovoltaic Applications
(2015)
This dissertation focuses on the photophysical properties and device studies of three different types of materials, namely polyoxometalate (POM)-containing organic-inorganic hybrids, near-IR absorbing conjugated polymers ...
Synthesis, self-assembly and applications of tribenzopenta-phene derivatives and triphenylene-based conjugated foldamers
(2013)
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are interesting discotic liquid crystalline materials. Their often planar or near-planar geometry and extended π-delocalization render them appealing π-π stacking building blocks ...
Design, synthesis, characterization and photovoltaic applications of conjugated polymer hybrids containing coordinatively binded semiconducting nanocrystals
(2014-07-17)
Orgainc-inorganic hybrids containing organic conjugated polymers and inorganic semiconducting nanocrystals are fascinating optoelectronic materials which may combine the advantages of both worlds. This dissertation aims ...
Synthesis and Electrocatalytic Properties of Structure Engineered First-Row Transition Metal Derivatives
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2018)
Hydrogen is a green energy carrier, producing only water when combusted, and a
hydrogen economy has been considered the ideal green economy for human society. Water
electrolysis can produce high-purity hydrogen on a ...
