(2014-07)
This dissertation describes two creative activities. The first is a computational study of molybdenum oxide clusters and the other is an experimental study of the corrosion of metals. The first effort covers three topics. ...
Exploration and characterization of new synthesis methods for C60 colloidal suspensions in water
(2014-05)
Buckminsterfullerene, C60, has been used in the production of several commercial products from badminton racquets and lubricants for their mechanical properties to cosmetics and even dietary supplements for their "antioxidant" ...
Synthesis and characterization of chiral germanium compounds for asymmetric hydrogermylation of organic compounds
(2021-07)
Oligogermanes have long been studied and analyzed due to their innate ability to undergo o-delocalization along the Ge-Ge backbone. Due to this property, oligogermanes can exhibit unique optical and electrical properties, ...
