Motivation 1. Motivation In 2004, Novoselov and Geim received the Nobel Prize for “groundbreaking experiments regarding the two-dimensional material graphene”[1]. Prior to their achievement of isolating single-layer graphene sheets, it was believed that two- dimensional polymers (2DPs) were not stable, as a layer spread into two dimensions was considered entropically unfavored.[2] Nevertheless, even more important than the general accessibility of 2DPs were the outstanding properties measured in graphene, namely a high electron mobility of 200 000 cm² V-1 s-1,[3-4] ballistic electron transport over ~0.4 µm,[5] a quantum Hall effect at room temperature,[6-7] a large specific surface area of 2630 m² g-1,[8] a Young’s modulus of ~1.0 TPa,[9] and a high thermal conductivity of ~5000 W m-1 K-1.[8] Most of these properties were traced back to its two- dimensionality, triggering research in the field of both inorganic as well as organic two- dimensional (2D) materials, which is steadily increasing ever since. When discussing 2D structures, it is important to define and distinguish the terminology used in literature, as it includes an extensive number of different structural occurrences, morphologies, properties, and applicabilities, all correlated to the dimensionality of the provided material. Although their expressions are sometimes randomly used throughout the literature, 2D monolayers will be addressed as two- dimensional polymers (2DPs), and two-dimensional supramolecular polymers (2DSPs) as subcategory, respectively, according to the definition of Schlüter et al.[10] This definition implicates the presence of a well-ordered structure of connected monomer units in only two orthogonal directions. The remaining materials, consisting of an ensemble of lamellar structures of bi-, tri-, or multilayers will be referred to with the general term 2D material as conventionalized by Feng et al[11] or Payamyar et al.[12] When discussing both 2DPs and 2D materials, the generalizing term 2D structures will be used. The field of 2D materials is well-developed and includes a large number of materials, both naturally occurring and synthetically produced. For example, both graphite and mica can be found in nature and exhibit lamellar structures.[13]

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INTRODUCTION * A survey conducted in 1974 by the Michigan Department oc Natural Re- sources (DNR) indicated severe contamination of the Pine River sediments in ** the St. Louis, Michigan Reservoir and below the Velsicol Chemical Corpo- ration (VCC) plant site. Several organic compounds were identified in the study including: DOT and associated analogs (total DOT: 293 mg/kg), phthalates (19.5 mg/kg), polybrominated biphenyls (PBB : 9.0 mg/kg), and oils (19,000 mg/kg). Flesh analyses of Pine River fish showed high levels of PBB (0.87 mg/kg), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB 1254: 1.99 mg/kg), and total DOT (1.65 mg/kg). A Michigan Department of Public Health warning against consumption of Pine River fish from St. Louis 60 km downstream to the confluence with the Chippewa River was issued in November 1974, because of PBB contamination. This warning was renewed in 1976 and still remains in effect. A In a publication dated June 15, 1979, concerning the contaminated Pine River the Michigan DNR recommended the following: (1) The St.

Hsu, Ph.D. Dean, School of Graduate Studies ABSTRACT Campo, Angela M. M.S., Department of Chemistry, Wright State University, 2010. Novel synthesis of polyhydrogenated fullerenes Hydrogenated fullerenes are of interest as a starting material in metal fulleride synthesis. By reacting C60H2 with various metals, alloyed metal fullerides could be produced. To achieve this goal, first a reliable synthesis of C60H2 must be determined. C60H2 is difficult to synthesis exclusively; C60H4 and C60H6 are also produced. Reduction of C60 with NaBH4 produced a mixture of products as well as excessive unreacted C60. Attempts to modify this reaction to achieve C60H2 exclusively were unsuccessful. A novel route was explored by reducing C60 with thiophenol. This reaction produced C60H2 after 4 days. In an effort to speed up the reaction time, C60 was reduced with Zn(Cu) and thiophenol as a proton source.

  • Materials Engineering, Characterization, and Applications of the Organic- Based Magnet, V[TCNE]
    Materials engineering, characterization, and applications of the organic- based magnet, V[TCNE] DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Megan Harberts Graduate Program in Physics The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Professor Ezekiel Johnston-Halperin, Advisor Professor Jay Gupta Professor Annika Peter Professor William Putikka Copyright by Megan Harberts 2015 Abstract Organic materials have advantageous properties such as low cost and mechanical flexibility that have made them attractive to complement traditional materials used in electronics and have led to commercial success, especially in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). Many rapidly advancing technologies incorporate magnetic materials, leading to the potential for creating analogous organic-based magnetic applications. The semiconducting ferrimagnet, vanadium tetracyanoethylene, V[TCNE]x~2, exhibits room temperature magnetic ordering which makes it an attractive candidate. My research is focused on development of thin films of V[TCNE]x~2 through advancement in growth, materials engineering, and applications. My thesis is broken up into two sections, the first which provides background and details of V[TCNE]x~2 growth and characterization. The second section focuses on advances beyond V[TCNE]x~2 film growth. The ordering of the chapters is for the ease of the reader, but encompasses work that I led and robust collaborations that I have participated in. V[TCNE]x~2 films are deposited through a chemical vapor deposition process (CVD). My advancements to the growth process have led to higher quality films which have higher magnetic ordering temperatures, more magnetically homogenous samples, and extremely narrow ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) linewidths.

  • Structural, Optical, and Electrical Properties of Pbse Nanocrystal Solids Treated Thermally Or with Simple Amines Matt Law,* Joseph M
    Published on Web 04/09/2008 Structural, Optical, and Electrical Properties of PbSe Nanocrystal Solids Treated Thermally or with Simple Amines Matt Law,* Joseph M. Luther, Qing Song, Barbara K. Hughes, Craig L. Perkins, and Arthur J. Nozik* National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Golden, Colorado 80401 Received January 3, 2008; E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract: We describe the structural, optical, and electrical properties of films of spin-cast, oleate-capped PbSe nanocrystals that are treated thermally or chemically in solutions of hydrazine, methylamine, or pyridine to produce electronically coupled nanocrystal solids. Postdeposition heat treatments trigger nanocrystal sintering at ∼200 °C, before a substantial fraction of the oleate capping group evaporates or pyrolyzes. The sintered nanocrystal films have a large hole density and are highly conductive. Most of the amine treatments preserve the size of the nanocrystals and remove much of the oleate, decreasing the separation between nanocrystals and yielding conductive films. X-ray scattering, X-ray photoelectron and optical spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and field-effect transistor electrical measurements are used to compare the impact of these chemical treatments. We find that the concentration of amines adsorbed to the NC films is very low in all cases. Treatments in hydrazine in acetonitrile remove only 2-7% of the oleate yet result in high-mobility n-type transistors. In contrast, ethanol-based hydrazine treatments remove 85-90% of the original oleate load. Treatments in pure ethanol strip 20% of the oleate and create conductive p-type transistors. Methylamine- and pyridine-treated films are also p-type. These chemically treated films oxidize rapidly in air to yield, after short air exposures, highly conductive p-type nanocrystal solids.
