Self-assembled bilayers consisting of a monolayer of molecules, a metal linking ion and a second molecular layer were prepared and used in controlling critical energy and electron transfer events in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs)....
This thesis is a continuous effort contributed to the field of developing a new type of functional porous materials - Nanocarbon Foam (NCF) by crosslinking multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) into networks in three-dimensional (3D)....
There is a plethora of interesting science and many applications that rely on wrinkling in thin sheets. Though wrinkling may not be appreciated in some instances, in many other situations wrinkles can help to comprehend various physical...
Fiber-reinforced polymer composites (FRPCs) have a variety of applications in diverse industries. However, predicting the failure of FRPCs is more difficult than predicting the failure of more traditional materials like steel....
A novel ceramic-polymer hybrid composite is fabricated by co-curing lay-up process to combine a carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced ceramic composite film with a carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite substrate. A transition layer...
Organic-inorganic halide perovskites have received significant attention as a promising opportunity for low-cost, high-performance optoelectronic devices, such as solar cells, photodetectors, and light-emitting diodes due to their...
Carbon fiber is an very important engineering material with excellent mechanical properties and low density. It usually combines with various polymers and forms carbon fiber reinforcement polymer composites, which have wide applications...
Recent years have seen developments in lithium-ion capacitor (LIC) technology. However, there has been scant work in mathematical models to predict the performance of LICs. Existing models have focused upon cell degradation over time or...
In recent years, organic solar cells (OSCs) have been attracting much attention due to the ease of processing, low cost, flexibility, and lightweight compared to the traditional inorganic solar cells. Although OSC looks promising, it has...
Polymeric foam materials continue to gather commercial and research interests due to their unique physical characteristics and emerging applications in a wide variety of industries. This research work viewed the polymer foam industry...
This thesis aims to develop a deeper understanding of perovskite thin film growth and stability for integration into photodetectors for mechanoluminescent sensing applications. Photodetectors play an important role in our society, acting...
