Development and Evaluation of Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation Coatings for Spacecraft Applications
Spacecraft structures are often fabricated out of light weight materials in order to reduce the overall mass, thereby reducing the launch cost and/or increasing the payload capability. Aluminium alloys, especially AA6061, ...
Microwave Rotation-Tunnelling Spectroscopic and Theoretical Studies on Weakly Bound Molecular Complexes: Intermolecular Bonding across the Periodic Table
Intermolecular interactions appear to be well understood in a broad sense today; at a deeper molecular level, it is still evolving. Spectroscopy in this isolated state proved to be a first step toward understanding the ...
Aqueous and Non- aqueous dispersions of MoS2 Nanosheets
The focus of this thesis is an attempt
to provide a molecular perspective of the interactions of solvent and ligand molecules with
sonication assisted exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets in aqueous and non-aqueous dispersions.
In ...
Studies on BODIPY Appended Ruthenium(II) Complexes for Bioimaging and Photodynamic Therapy Applications
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a medical technique that utilizes light, oxygen, and a photosensitizer to treat several medical conditions, including cancer. Because of the limitations and side effects of traditional anticancer ...
Catalytic Studies with Ru and Ir Half-sandwich Complexes Bearing NHC Ligands
The thesis describes the study of arene-tethered and untethered Ru half-sandwich complexes as catalysts in the addition of hydroelements (E‒H, E = H, B, Si) across unsaturated C-C, C-N and C-O bonds and transfer hydrogenation ...
Reversible Redox Switching of First Hyperpolarizability (Β) of Metallorganic Complexes
The concept of molecular switches has garnered enormous interest because of the vital role of these switches as components in molecular electronic/photonic devices, signal transmission and optical communication. Compounds ...
Structure-Activity Correlation and Mechanistic Investigations of Glutathione Peroxidase-Like Catalytic Activity of Diaryl Diselenides
Hydroperoxides are very harmful and they can oxidize several biomolecules, causing different disease states. Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) is a mammalian selenoenzyme which protects human body from oxidative damage by ...
Syntheses and Structure Elucidations of Co-crystal with Nicotinamide Co-former
Abstract :
Co-crystals consist of two or more components that form a unique crystalline structure having unique properties. The components interact via non-covalent, ionic interaction, van der Waals interactions and π-π ...
Electrochemical Investigations Related to the Next Generation Sodium and Potassium Batteries
The commercialization of Li-ion battery (LIB) in 1990s by Sony Corporation has led to its applications in portable electronic devices such as mobile phones, cameras, laptop computers, etc. Initially, the energy density of ...
Theoretical Investigation of H-Bonded O-H Vibrations, H-Atom Transfer and C-H Vibrations via Empirical Valence Bond and Local Mode Based Models
In this thesis, I have presented my work on properties of hydrogen(H) bonded systems, H-atom transfer reaction in solution and molecular vibrational spectra through theoretical inves-tigations. The studies are based on two ...
