  • STRONG and WEAK INTERLAYER INTERACTIONS of TWO-DIMENSIONAL MATERIALS and THEIR ASSEMBLIES Tyler William Farnsworth a Dissertati
    STRONG AND WEAK INTERLAYER INTERACTIONS OF TWO-DIMENSIONAL MATERIALS AND THEIR ASSEMBLIES Tyler William Farnsworth A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Chemistry. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Scott C. Warren James F. Cahoon Wei You Joanna M. Atkin Matthew K. Brennaman © 2018 Tyler William Farnsworth ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Tyler William Farnsworth: Strong and weak interlayer interactions of two-dimensional materials and their assemblies (Under the direction of Scott C. Warren) The ability to control the properties of a macroscopic material through systematic modification of its component parts is a central theme in materials science. This concept is exemplified by the assembly of quantum dots into 3D solids, but the application of similar design principles to other quantum-confined systems, namely 2D materials, remains largely unexplored. Here I demonstrate that solution-processed 2D semiconductors retain their quantum-confined properties even when assembled into electrically conductive, thick films. Structural investigations show how this behavior is caused by turbostratic disorder and interlayer adsorbates, which weaken interlayer interactions and allow access to a quantum- confined but electronically coupled state. I generalize these findings to use a variety of 2D building blocks to create electrically conductive 3D solids with virtually any band gap. I next introduce a strategy for discovering new 2D materials. Previous efforts to identify novel 2D materials were limited to van der Waals layered materials, but I demonstrate that layered crystals with strong interlayer interactions can be exfoliated into few-layer or monolayer materials.

  • A Specific Gravity Index for Minerats
    A SPECIFICGRAVITY INDEX FOR MINERATS c. A. MURSKyI ern R. M. THOMPSON, Un'fuersityof Bri.ti,sh Col,umb,in,Voncouver, Canad,a This work was undertaken in order to provide a practical, and as far as possible,a complete list of specific gravities of minerals. An accurate speciflc cravity determination can usually be made quickly and this information when combined with other physical properties commonly leads to rapid mineral identification. Early complete but now outdated specific gravity lists are those of Miers given in his mineralogy textbook (1902),and Spencer(M,i,n. Mag.,2!, pp. 382-865,I}ZZ). A more recent list by Hurlbut (Dana's Manuatr of M,i,neral,ogy,LgE2) is incomplete and others are limited to rock forming minerals,Trdger (Tabel,l,enntr-optischen Best'i,mmungd,er geste,i,nsb.ildend,en M,ineral,e, 1952) and Morey (Encycto- ped,iaof Cherni,cal,Technol,ogy, Vol. 12, 19b4). In his mineral identification tables, smith (rd,entifi,cati,onand. qual,itatioe cherai,cal,anal,ys'i,s of mineral,s,second edition, New york, 19bB) groups minerals on the basis of specificgravity but in each of the twelve groups the minerals are listed in order of decreasinghardness. The present work should not be regarded as an index of all known minerals as the specificgravities of many minerals are unknown or known only approximately and are omitted from the current list. The list, in order of increasing specific gravity, includes all minerals without regard to other physical properties or to chemical composition. The designation I or II after the name indicates that the mineral falls in the classesof minerals describedin Dana Systemof M'ineralogyEdition 7, volume I (Native elements, sulphides, oxides, etc.) or II (Halides, carbonates, etc.) (L944 and 1951).

  • Deposition of Trace Elements from High Temperature Gases of Satsuma-Iwojima Volcano
    Earth Planets Space, 54, 275–286, 2002 Deposition of trace elements from high temperature gases of Satsuma-Iwojima volcano F. Africano1, G. Van Rompaey1, A. Bernard1, and F. Le Guern2 1Geochemistry CP 160/02, University of Brussels, 50 Av. F. Roosevelt, 1050 Brussels, Belgium 2CNRS, LSCE, Av. De la Terrasse, 91198 Gif/Yvette, France (Received July 5, 2000; Revised September 25, 2001; Accepted September 28, 2001) The Satsuma-Iwojima volcano has been emitting continuously high temperature (600◦ to 900◦C) gases for at least 800 years. We identified the minerals that form in response to closed-system cooling of these gases and from air- mixing reactions. Major differences compared with the sublimates observed at other volcanoes are the occurrence of wulfenite (PbMoO4) and several mixed chlorides. This is the first report of wulfenite in fumarolic deposits. Thermochemical modeling shows that wulfenite precipitates between 540◦ and 490◦C from a gas with lower sulfur content and/or higher f O2, and a higher Mo content (log f SO2 =−2.1, log f H2S =−5, log f O2 =−18.6, ◦ log f H2MoO4 =−4.5, T = 500 C) than the previously reported gas composition. The occurrence of abundant K, Pb, Fe, Zn, Rb and Cs mixed chlorides may be promoted by the low S/Cl of the Satsuma-Iwojima high temperature gases. Natural sublimates of metallic elements (molybdenite, wulfenite, anglesite, Tl-Pb and Tl-Bi sulfides, Mo oxydes and Pb oxides) are deposited along the fumarolic conduit and on the ground under conditions of variable temperatures and f O2. The increase in f O2 due to the mixing of the gases with the atmosphere reduces the volatility of several elements (As, Sn, Na, K and Pb) by promoting their condensation at higher temperatures.

    THE MINERALOGICAL MAGAZINE AND JOURNhL OF THE MINERALOGICAL SOCIETY. No. 89. MAY 1889. Vol. VIII. On Crystals of Percylite, Caracolite, and an Oxychloride of Lead ( Daviesite), from Mina Beatriz, Sierra Gorda, Atacama, South Amelia. By L. FLZTCm~R, M.A., F.G.S. [Read January 22nd, 1889.] OME time ago a specimen studded with small but well developed S crystals of a sky-blue mineral, supposed to be percylite, was offered for the British Museum collection : the rarity of percylite and the excellence of the crystals on this specimen rendered a careful examination desirable. The specimen had been obtained from the Mina Beatriz, Sierra Gorda : on a large-scale chart, kindly placed at my service some years ago by Mr. George Hicks, of Newquay, Cornwall, Sierra Gorda is shown situate between the Bay of Mejillones and Caracoles, about 20 or 30 miles from the latter; longitude 69~ ' W. of Greenwich, latitude 22~ ' S. : at the truce of 1884 possession of this district was temporarily assigned to Chili. On measurement one of the crystals proved to belong to the cubic system, and to be limited by the faces of the rhombic dodecahedron, octa- hedron and cube, those of the latter being subordinate in development; N 172 L. FLETCHER ON on other crystals the cube was seen to be a predominating form: the mineral is without action on polarised light : by help of the blowpipe the presence of copper, lead and chlorine was recognised : hence the crystals are doubtless percylite. The crystals are sprinkled upon calcite which presents here and there large cleavage-faces, and is coated in parts with a white powder containing both calcium and sulphuric acid: limonite and crystals of chlorargyrite are also present.
