Dibble, Alicia G. | Computer Simulation-Aided Design of Single-Ion Conducting Structures for Solid Polymer Electrolytes in Lithium0ion Batteries | Lithium-ion batteries are commonplace in consumer devices, but the volatility of the liquid electrolyte used in those batteries poses an innate safety risk that must be combated if the batteries are to maintain their preferential status in modern technology. One alternative to liquid electrolytes is... | 2019 | |

Kennedy, Ashley | Design of Optimal Carbonaceous Material from Carbon Capture for Use in Lithium-Ion Batteries | The utilization of carbon nanofiber obtained from carbon capture as a potential anodic material in lithium-ion batteries was investigated in this project. The carbon nanofiber obtained from the carbon capture process was designed to be optimal for use in lithium-ion batteries. Its suitability as an ... | 2018 | |

Ansari, Adam | Designing Polymer Coated Carbon Nanotube Detectors for Alkane Vapors | Alkane vapors are difficult to be detected in oil pipelines until a leak exceeds 1% of the total flow. Yet, an alkane leak can cause severe security, environmental, and human health problems if it is not identified or addressed. Detecting low concentrations of alkanes will lead to the detection of s... | 2014 | |

Nielson, Clark | Gel-Cast fluorapatite scaffolding for bone repair | Calcium-phosphate bioceramics have long been attempted as replacement bone substitutes due to their resemblance to the mineral component of natural bone tissue, and because their dissolution byproducts can elicit new bone growth. Many studies have demonstrated that fluoridated hydroxyapatite, or flu... | 2021 | |

Stephanz, Megan | Increasing the Stability of Thylakoid Biocatalyst Bio-Solar Cells Through the Use of Oxygen Species Material Scavengers | Global energy requirements will only increase with time. While fossil fuels can be relied upon for several more centuries, they would produce vast amounts of carbonaceous byproducts. This undesirable fact makes renewable options like bio-solar cells, which are clean, inexpensive, and take advantage ... | 2016 | |

Downs, Melinda | Modeling conductivity as a function of temperature for CZTS and CZTSe thin film solar cell absorber layers | The goat of this project was to develop an accurate model for the temperature dependent conductivity of CU2ZnSnS4 (elTS) and CU2ZnSnSe4 {ClTSe} thin film solar cell absorber layers. Mathematical models of conductivity and resistivity were derived from both parallel and series combinations of tempera... | Solar cells; Thin films | 2013 |

Ochoa, Ruben | Optimal liberation of waste lithium-ion battery electrode material through attrition milling | This study is focused on the liberation of waste lithium-ion battery electrode material through a physical attrition milling process. High recovery of graphite and cathode material is an important driver for the process economics, thus a robust milling process to liberate these particles is importan... | 2020 | |

Hahn, Carina | Plasmonically active silver nanowire structures for energy storage applications | Currently, there are no sustainable solutions available to meet the increasing demand for grid scale energy storage. Solar to fuel conversion has the potential to curb our dependence on natural gas and costly storage technologies by recycling waste products into chemical fuels. A realistic device mu... | Nanowires; Energy storage; Plasmons (Physics) | 2015-04 |
