Thermal and Femtosecond Laser-Induced CO2-Surface Chemistry on Supported Iron-Oxide Based Nanoparticle Surfaces under UHV
The thesis has been presented in two parts. The 1st part of the thesis focuses on the
fundamental understanding of room temperature CO2 adsorption on iron-oxide based NP
surfaces. The 2nd part describes the understanding ...
Structural and magnetic properties of Al-doped yttrium iron aluminum garnet and optical properties of Mn, Sr, Fe-doped ZnO prepared by solution combustion method
The structural and magnetic properties of Al substituted yttrium-iron garnet (Y3AlxFe5-xO12, x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6 and 1.8) ceramic powders synthesized using solution combustion method ...
Wide Band Gap Oxides as the Probes for Optical Based Sensing Applications
Temperature is a very critical and widely measured variable by both researchers and engineers. In this regard, most of the available temperature sensors are based on contact mode of operation. In this consideration, the ...
Studies on Layered Ternary Metal Chalcogenides: Electronic devices, Sensors and Electrocatalysis
Atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials have gained tremendous interest since the discovery of graphene in 2004 due to their unique physical and chemical properties. They have been used in various research fields ...
Photo-responsive Self-assembled Coordination Architectures and Their Applications
Development of nanomaterials that mimic enzyme-like catalytic activities (nanozymes) has drawn special attention in recent time. Nanozymes possess exclusive advantages over natural enzymes like high stability, large-scale ...
Studies on Nanostructured Transition Metal Oxides and Related Composites for Supercapacitor Electrodes
Supercapacitors have acquired considerable scientific and technological position in energy storage field owing to their compelling power capability, good energy density, excellent cycling stability and ideal safety. ...
Design of Electroactive Materials and Mechanistic Investigations of Metal (Li, Na, Mg)-Sulfur Batteries
The thesis entitled “Design of Electroactive Materials and Mechanistic Investigations of Metal (Li, Na, Mg)-Sulfur Batteries’’ deliberates on some of the important issues impeding the progress of metal sulfur battery (Li/S, ...
Role of spin density and interchromophoric coupling in singlet fission
Singlet exciton fission (SEF) is the transformation of a photoexcited singlet exciton into two triplets localized on two chromophores coupled together. This process therefore produces two triplet excitons at the expense ...
Analytical Results on Disorder effects on Polaritons and Barrier Crossing Problems
Disorder plays a significant role in the study of numerous fields of research in chemistry.
Whether it is a more that 80 years old classic problem like Kramers’ escape rate or the current interest in polaritons, disorder ...
Synthesis of Amyloidogenic Peptides and Endosomolytic Peptides for Functional and Intracellular Protein Delivery Studies.
Over the past few decades, peptide research gained lot of prominence due to their extensive usage in and across domains ranging from biomedical to bio-material science. This thesis deals with two different types of peptides ...
