Properties And Manipulation Of Ionic Liquid-Solid Interfaces In Complex Oxide Materials, Anthony Thomas Wong
Properties And Manipulation Of Ionic Liquid-Solid Interfaces In Complex Oxide Materials, Anthony Thomas Wong
Doctoral Dissertations
Ionic liquids are liquid salts that are bringing rapid changes to the field of solid electronic materials. The implementation of ionic liquids in conjunction with these solid materials produces interfacial effects, especially when a bias is applied across the ionic liquid, forming an electric double layer. Electric double layers in ionic liquids are unique in their formation and the interfacial charges that are orders of magnitude higher than conventional techniques they can impart, providing new techniques for device design and implementation. In chapter 1, the fundamentals of the solid state electronic and magnetic materials are introduced, along with ionic liquids, …

Doctoral Dissertations
With the rapid development of technology, the need for novel materials and state-of-theart devices is growing fast. Complex oxides which have strongly correlated electrons are favorable candidates for materials industry, due to their rich phase diagrams and multiple functions. Especially, ferroelectric oxides is very promising materials in the industry for storage, due to their bistable polarization states triggered by external electrical field. This thesis is centered on ferroelectric oxides, analyzing their lattice structures and investigating the interface of ferroelectrics and other complex oxides to examine the potential of the heteostructures in the application in electronic devices.
