High Performance Germanium-based Anode Materials for Lithium-ion and Sodium-ion Rechargeable Batteries
DownloadFall 2014
In this thesis the electrochemical performance of germanium nanowires (GeNWs) as anode for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and tin-germanium-antimony (Sn-Ge-Sb) thin films as anode for sodium-ion batteries (NIBs) have been investigated. Scientific literature shows a substantial study-to-study...

High resolution and high efficiency biomolecular sensing using solid-state and hybrid bilayer MoS2 nanopores
DownloadFall 2021
Solid-state nanopores have emerged as stable label- and amplification- free biosensors for rapid detection of charged biomolecules. Analytes are electrophoretically pulled through nanopores and are detected using the characteristic blockade current due to the translocation. However, despite their...
