Development of a solution-based process for hydroxyapatite and functionalised hydroxyapatite
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Chemistry. Discipline of Chemistry, 2024)Hydroxyapatite coatings have long been established as a means of improving the osteointegration of metallic orthopaedic implants. Nonetheless there are both technical and commercial drawbacks associated with industrial ... -
Development of Stimuli-responsive Materials for Direct Laser Writing for the Realisation of Microactuators
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Chemistry. Discipline of Chemistry, 2024)Two-photon polymerisation (2PP) is a laser-based fabrication technology which can be used to fabricate complex 3D microstructures with feature sizes ~100 nm. This thesis assesses the state of the art in 2PP and presents ... -
Enantioselective effect of cysteine functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles in U87 MG and GM08680 human cells and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria
(2021)Chirality is a fundamental phenomenon in biological systems, since most of the biomolecules and biological components and species are chiral and therefore recognize and respond differently depending on the enantiomer ... -
On-Surface Synthesis of Polyphenylene Wires Comprising Rigid Aliphatic Bicyclo[1.1.1]Pentane Isolator Units
(2023)Bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane (BCP) motifs are of growing importance to the pharmaceutical industry as sp3 -rich bioisosteres of benzene rings and as molecular building blocks in materials science. Herein we explore the behavior ... -
A Heterometallic Porphyrin Dimer as a Potential Quantum Gate: Magneto-Structural Correlations and Spin Coherence Properties
(2023)In the development of two-qubit quantum gates, precise control over the intramolecular spin-spin interaction between molecular spin units plays a pivotal role. A weak but measurable exchange coupling is especially important ...
