Open Access Theses & Dissertations

The discovery of efficient and sustainable carbon-based nanotechnologies to solve both the scarcity of drinking water and global energy crisis has become a paramount task in the last decades. Owed to the fast population growth and industrialization of the modern society, access to potable water and clean energy technologies is becoming very hard around the globe. Water pollutants have become a serious threat to the environment and ecology because of their toxic nature. Parallelly, the current hydrocarbon-based fuel industries are generating high levels of contamination across the planet, making imperative the development of cleaner energy technologies. In this regard, the …

A comprehensive investigation performed in order to understand the fundamental aspects of transition metal (TM) incorporation into Ga2O3, a wide band gap semiconductor with a huge potential for application in electronics, optics, micromechanics and optoelectronics. An approach is presented to tailor the structural, optical, electrical, mechanical properties of Ga2O3 ceramics and thin films. The tungsten (W) mixed Ga2O3 with variable W at% (Ga2-2xWxO3 ; 0.00 ≤ x ≤ 0.30) were synthesized by the high temperature solid state route involving a 2-step calcination process. The solubility limits and phase stability of the compounds are established. While solubility and phase stability occur …
