Ab Initio calculation of parameters for electron and spin transport in organic crystals
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2018)Organic semiconductors offer several crucial advantages over their inorganic counterparts in electronic and spintronic applications. Besides offering structural advantages such as variety and flexibility, organic semiconductors ... -
Accelerating Materials Discovery with Machine Learning
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2024)Materials discovery has always been constrained by the classic approach to scientific discovery, often characterized by a combination of either human intuition or luck. Machine learning (ML) gives us the opportunity to ... -
Atomic and Electronic Structure of a Multidomain GeTe Crystal
(2020)Renewed interest in the ferroelectric semiconductor germanium telluride was recently triggered by the direct observation of a giant Rashba effect and a 30-year-old dream about a functional spin field-effect transistor. In ... -
Fabrication of Nanoporous Membrane-like Thin Layers via Block Copolymer Lithography of P2VP-b-PS Inverse Systems and their Potential Applications
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Chemistry. Discipline of Chemistry, 2024)The large-scale fabrication of nanoporous materials and substrates has generated significant research interest on account of the wide range of possible applications, including nanophotonics, optoelectronics, biomedical ... -
Quantification of Subsurface Damage in a Brittle Insulating Ceramic by Three-Dimensional Focused Ion Beam Tomography
(2011)In this study, we present a fully automated method to investigate and reconstruct the three-dimensional crack structure beneath an indent in a highly insulating material. This work concentrates on issues arising from a ... -
Use of a Robot for High-throughput Crystallization of Membrane Proteins in Lipidic Mesophases
(2012)An important route to understanding how proteins function at a mechanistic level is to have the structure of the target protein available, ideally at atomic resolution. Presently, there is only one way to capture such ...
