X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy of Novel Ternary Materials
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2021)In this thesis the best synthesis conditions and compositional dependency of optoelectronic properties for novel ternary n-type amorphous Zinc Tin oxide (a-ZTO) and p-type nanocrystalline CuxCrO2 Transparent Conducting ... -
Properties of massive stars before death
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2021)Despite their importance, there is a lot yet to be learned regarding massive stars, particularly those at late evolutionary stages. In the first of two studies presented here, we investigate a suspected very massive star ... -
Computational and Experimental Study of Optical properties of TiO2 Arrays Fabricated via Soft Nanoimprint Lithography
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2021)In this thesis the optical properties of large 1 mm2 titanium oxide (TiO2) nanoarrays and the interactions with Rhodamine 6G are studied computationally and experimentally. Three TiO2 arrays with different particle size ... -
Development and Characterisation of a Zero-Moment Half-Metal
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2021)A dream material for spintronics would have low/zero net moment, no stray fields, high resonance frequency, low damping and be 100 % spin polarised. Such materials combine the best features of a ferromagnet and an ... -
Viscoelastic Polymer Nanocomposites for Strain Sensing Applications
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2021)Strain sensors are a technology that have developed in parallel with the major milestones in material science over the last century. Most recently, the field of 2D materials has proven to have found a wide range of ...
