Electron transfer in metal-organic frameworks: conductivity, catalysis, and gas adsorption from the perspective of DFT

Mancuso, Jenna (University of Oregon, 2021-11-23)

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have a rich chemistry characterized by a diverse assortment of organic and inorganic components supplemented by post-synthetic modification procedures. The application of a given framework ...
Electronic structure perturbations of perovskite material: photovoltaic applications

Kasel, Thomas (University of Oregon, 2020-12-08)

The necessity of implementing sustainable renewable energy sources to meet energy demands over the next century is rapidly becoming clearer. An overabundance of solar radiation hits the earth every day, a significant portion ...
Enhancing the Antiaromaticity of s-Indacenes Through Heterocycle Fusion

Warren, Gabrielle (University of Oregon, 2024-03-25)

Antiaromaticity, while associated with instability, imparts beneficial properties such as decreased HOMO-LUMO energy gaps. Compounds containing antiaromatic subunits are not only of fundamental interest, but of interest ...
First Principles Studies of The Metal-Organic Interface in Porous Frameworks

Le, Khoa (University of Oregon, 2022-10-26)

Due to their generally poor conductivity, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been limited in electrical applications. In this dissertation we explore structural deformation as a route to augmenting the electronic properties ...
