Implementation of Solution and Solid Sate Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopic Techniques for Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Molecular Species
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2019)
In this dissertation, spectroscopy has been used to solve a variety of problems in different
domains of science. Therefore, each chapter consists of different examples that have been
addressed using different concepts ...
Electronic, Optical, Structural, and Elastic Properties of MAX Phases and (Cr2Hf)2Al3C3
(2014-09-30)
The term “MAX phase” refers to a very interesting and important class of
layered ternary transition-metal carbides and nitrides with a novel combination of both
metal- and ceramic-like properties that have made these ...
Growth of Semiconductor Thin Films by Pulsed Laser Deposition
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2016)
Pulsed ultraviolet light from a XeF excimer laser was used to grow thin films of
zinc oxide and tin dioxide on (111) p-type silicon wafers within a versatile high
vacuum laser deposition system. This pulsed laser deposition ...
Ab Initio Study of Amorphous Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework (A-ZIF) and Pyrophosphate crystals
(2020)
Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) are a rapidly emerging class of versatile porous material with many potential applications. Here, we report the construction of an amorphous ZIF (a-ZIF) model from a near-perfect ...
Mathematical Analysis of Compressive/Tensile Molecular and Nuclear Structures
(2015-06-19)
Mathematical analysis in chemistry is a fascinating and critical tool to explain
experimental observations. In this dissertation, mathematical methods to present
chemical bonding and other structures for many-particle ...
