Oxygen radical functionalization of boron nitride nanosheets
(2012)
The covalent chemical functionalization of exfoliated hexagonal boron-nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) is achieved by the solution phase oxygen radical functionalization of boron atoms in the h-BN lattice. This involves a two-step ...
A considered application of the Langreth-Lundqvist van der Waals density functional in the context of : open shell molecules, atom centered basis sets, adsorption of graphene into a Bi₂Se₃ slab
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Physics, 2015)
The work in this thesis is aimed towards exploring the edge case application of the Langreth-Lundqvist vdW density functional (vdW-DF). The increasing popularity of the vdW-DF functional has resulted in its application ...
Large-Scale Exfoliation of Inorganic Layered Compounds in Aqueous Surfactant Solutions
(2011)
Thumbnail image of graphical abstract
A method to exfoliate MoS2 in large quantities in surfactant-water solutions is described. The layered material tends to be exfoliated as dispersions of thin, relatively defect-free ...
Development of Atmospheric PLD of Plasmonic Metal Nanoparticle Films for SERS Application
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2018)
For the fast uptake into industrial applications, the further development of fabrication methods for nanomaterials which are inexpensive and simultaneously technologically feasible is one of the major key factors. One ...
Theory of Time-dependent Space-charge-limited Conduction
(IEEE, 2007)
We have developed a theory of timedependent
space-charge-limited conduction in recent
years to understand a hysteresis-shift phenomenon of
graded ferroelectric films. The theory is a generalization
of the conventional ...
Study of the mechanical, electrical and morphological properties of PU/ MWCNT composites obtained by two different processing routes
(Elsevier, 2012)
A comparative study of the influence of processing route on polyurethanes (PU)/ Multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composites mechanical and electrical properties and also morphology was undergone employing two differentiated ...
Ag colloids and arrays for plasmonic non-radiative energy transfer from quantum dots to a quantum well
(2017)
Non-radiative energy transfer (NRET) can be an efficient process of benefit to many applications including photovoltaics, sensors, light emitting diodes and photodetectors. Combining the remarkable optical properties of ...
Electron trapping by neutral pristine ferroelectric domain walls in BiFeO3
(2018)
First-principles calculations for pristine neutral ferroelectric domain walls in BiFeO3 reveal that excess
electrons are selectively trapped by the domain walls, while holes are only weakly attracted. Such trapped
excess ...
Magnetic noise in structured hard magnets
(2010)
The anomalous Hall effect of wires patterned from ?Co90Fe10=Pt?n multilayers, with 10 n 50, is
used to determine the magnetization process in a small volume of maze domains. Time-independent 1=f
noise appears in ...
Interactions between quantum emitters in the presence of plasmonic nanostructures
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Physics, 2016)
In this thesis the spontaneous emission, of a single quantum emitter, and the energy transfer, between a pair of quantum emitters, rates are investigated in the presence of conducting nanostructures. The competition between ...
