Block-Copolymer-derived plasmonic templates and its applications
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Chemistry. Discipline of Chemistry, 2021)Plasmonic metasurfaces have important applications in life science, optics, and catalysis. However, their industrial usage is limited by high throughput nanofabrication. A promising solution is the transfer of a pattern ... -
Chemical microscopy and nanoscopy of bio-materials and living cells, IRMMW-THz
(IEEE, 2010)Raman microspectroscopy of human sperm cells and nearfield infrared microscopy of nanoscale biomaterials like nanografted DNA have been performed. A newly developed station for the ANKA-IR2 beamline combines several ... -
Controlled carboxylic acid introduction: a route to highly purified oxidized single walled carbon nanotubes
(2011)A chemical treatment for preparing high purity selectively oxidised SWNTs while preserving optical/ electronic properties of the material has been developed. Efficient removal of both metal and carbonaceous impurities ... -
Direct laser writing of vapour-responsive photonic arrays
(2021)Using direct laser writing, arrays of optically responsive ionogel structures were fabricated. To demonstrate their responsive nature, visible colour changes in the presence of different solvent vapours were investigated. ... -
Modelling of Atomic Imaging and Evaporation in the Field Ion Microscope
(2011)Imaging and evaporation of atoms in the field ion microscope (FIM) has been modelled by using finite difference methods to calculate the voltage distribution around a tip and hence the electric field strength experienced ... -
The Resistance of Cu Nanowire-Nanowire Junctions & Electro-Optical Modeling of Cu Nanowire Networks
(2020)Flexible transparent conductors made from networks of metallic nanowires are a potential replacement for conventional, non-flexible, and transparent conducting materials such as indium tin oxide. Cu nanowires are particularly ... -
Substituted Pyridazines As Ligands In Homoleptic (fac and mer) and Heteroleptic Ru(II) Complexes
(2011)This article reports the preparation of a range of phenyl, pyridyl and pyrazinyl substituted pyridazinesvia the inverse electron demand [2 + 4] Diels?Alder reaction between 3,6-di(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazines (bptz) and ... -
Synthesis and Analysis of Thin Conducting Pyrolytic Carbon Films
(2012)We report on an adjustable process for chemical vapour deposition of thin films of pyrolytic carbon on inert substrates using an acetylene feedstock. Through modification of the reaction parameters control over film thickness ... -
Synthesis and characterisation of a mesocyclic tripodal triamine ligand
(2016)Meso- and macrocyclic polydentate amine ligands have been widely explored in oxidation catalysis and for the stabilization of unstable metal-superoxide, -peroxide, and -oxo intermediates. Herein we report on the design and ... -
Temperature-Responsive 4D Liquid Crystal Microactuators Fabricated by Direct Laser Writing by Two-Photon Polymerization
(2021)Over the past decade, progress in direct laser writing by two-photon polymerization (DLW-TPP) of stimuli-responsive materials has made considerable inroads into the realization of microactuators. With the focus on performing ... -
Two-Photon Polymerization of Sugar Responsive 4D Microstructures
(2023)Stimuli-responsive hydrogels have attracted much attention owing to the versatility of their programmed response in offering intelligent solutions for biomimicry applications, such as soft robotics, tissue engineering, and ... -
Wet-chemistry synthesis and characterization of layered nanomaterials with tailored morphology
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Chemistry. Discipline of Chemistry, 2017)This PhD Thesis addresses a comprehensive study on the application of wet-chemistry methods to the preparation of layered nanostructured materials; namely 2-dimensional Mg-Al and Ni-Fe layered double hydroxides and ...
