| 1 |  | Lithium1.3Aluminum0.3Titanium1.7Phosphate as a solid state Li-ion conductor: Issues with microcracking and stability in aqueous solutions | Jackman, Spencer D. | Inorganic chemistry; Materials science | Lithium aluminum titanium phosphate (LATP) with formula Li1.3Al0.3Ti1.7(PO4)3 was analyzed and tested to better understand its applicability as a solid state ion conducting ceramic material for electrochemical applications. Sintered samples were obtained from Ceramatec, Inc. in Salt Lake City and ch... | 2012 |
| 2 |  | Increasing the stability and efficiency of bio-solar cell electrodes using reactivbe oxygen species scavengers and redox polymer immobilization | Stephanz, Megan E. | Engineering; Materials science | Global energy requirements are increasing with time. While fossil fuels can be relied upon for several more centuries, they would produce vast amounts of carbon dioxide. This undesirable fact makes renewable options like bio-solar cells, which are clean, inexpensive, and take advantage of abundant ... | 2017 |
| 3 |  | Dielectric breakdown of polycrystalline alumina: a weakest-link failure analysis | Block, Benjamin | Alumina; Dielectric; Extreme value; Laplace; Weakest-Link; Weibull; Materials science | The effects of varying electrode geometry (ball and ring) and size (radius), dielectric media (castor oil and Diala® oil), specimen thickness, and concentration of defects on the dielectric breakdown strength of commercial-grade alumina and high-purity fine-grained (HPFG) alumina were investigated.... | 2013-08 |
| 4 |  | Effects of antimony surfactanton indium gallium nitride grown by organometallic vapor phase epitaxy | Merrell, Jason Lawrence | Antimony; Indium Gallium Nitride; Organometallic vapor phase epitaxy; Surfactant; Materials science | This work reviews the fundamentals of InGaN materials and of surfactant effects in surfactant-mediated heteroepitaxial growth. The basic surface processes and possible surfactant mechanisms are presented. These principles are then applied to a study of the effects of Sb surfactant on InGaN grown by ... | 2012-12 |
| 5 |  | The effect of electrode surface topography on the structure and differential capacitance of the electric double layer capacitor | Cao, Liulei | Capacitor; Differential capacitance; Electric double layer; Surface topography; Physical chemistry; Energy; Materials science | Molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to study the structure and differential capacitance of the electric double layer capacitor by varying electrode topography. Studying the dependence of structure and differential capacitance (DC) on electrode potential is a central point of electric doubl... | 2011-08 |
