Gas Diffusion Layers Impregnated with Metal Oxide Decorated and Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Nanotube Catalysts for Electrically Rechargeable Zn-Air Batteries
DownloadSpring 2020
Secondary zinc-air batteries (ZABs) have garnered interest in recent years as a promising technology for energy storage due to their minimal safety concerns, low cost, and a high theoretical energy density. However, many issues still need to be resolved for commercialization of ZABs. Many of...

Hide and Seek is a children’s game. It can also be thought of more broadly as the act of concealment and of searching. The works in this exhibition ask viewers to consider the things from our past that we consciously and subconsciously hide as well as the objects and spaces in which we seek...

Nanoengineered and Biomimetic Protein-derived Adhesives with Improved Adhesion Strength and Water Resistance
DownloadSpring 2017
The oilseed industry generates a great deal of meal after oil extraction. Soy meal has a number of value added applications while canola meal is used mainly as a low-value animal feed. There is a growing interest on value addition of meal beyond feed uses. Canola and soy meal contain ~ 33-37% and...

Quantifying the effects of dissolved nitrogen and carbon dioxide on drying pressure of hydrophobic nanopores
Download2023-05-26
Binyaminov, Hikmat, Elliott, Janet A. W.
The effects of a dissolved gas on the behavior of liquid in cylindrical nanopores are investigated in the framework of Gibbsian composite system thermodynamics and classical nucleation theory. An equation is derived relating the phase equilibrium of a mixture of a subcritical solvent and a...

Rational Design and Engineering of Metal-based Nanomaterials for Multifunctional Electrocatalysis
DownloadFall 2023
Multifunctional electrocatalysis plays an important role in renewable energy conversion, supporting a variety of clean energy devices such as fuel cells, electrolyzers, and metal-air batteries. Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR)...

SEM Images of Block Copolymer Templated Patterns from PS-b-P2VP on Silicon with Platinum for Testing with ADAblock
SEM Images of Block Copolymer Templated Patterns from PS-b-P2VP on Silicon with Platinum for Testing with ADAblock
Download2014-07-05
Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of patterns derived from polystyrene-block-poly(2-vinylpyridine), where the poly(2-vinylpyridine) domains replaced with platinum metal. All samples were annealed for 20 minutes at 200 degrees celsius. Polymers used include PS(23.6k)-b-P2VP(10.4k),...

Silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs) have been suggested as promising candidates for bioimaging because of their abundance, biocompatibility, and stable photoluminescent properties. However, “naked” SiNCs are insoluble in water and very reactive. As a result, NC surface functionalization is necessary to...

We investigate the microscopic nature of charge-carrier conduction in nanoscale semiconducting materials using time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy (TRTS). TRTS uses picosecond pulses of terahertz radiation (0.5-2.5 THz) to explore photoexcited charge-carrier lifetimes and dynamics with...
