Study Of Novel Materials For Organic Photovoltaics And Organic/Inorganic Hybrid Solar Cells, Viney Saini

Theses and Dissertations

As the human race evolves and continues to progress in the future, we will face some obstacles during the advancement. Challenges like water, food, and poverty crisis, pollution, population explosion, and diseases are impediments in the development of mankind. Above all, with the development arises the need to fulfill the energy requirements. There are number of technologies available to answer the present energy needs, e.g. coal, nuclear, oil/natural gas, hydropower, etc. All these technologies have their advantages and disadvantages, with disadvantages being greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental impacts. One technology which has lagged behind due to high cost is …

Synthesis, Field Emission and Associated Degradation Mechanisms of Tapered ZnO Nanorods

Gregory Michael Wrobel, M.S.

University of Connecticut, 2011

Modern development of field emitter arrays (FEA) has been made possible, partly thanks to the synthesis and development of one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures. High aspect ratio 1D nanostructures effectively amplify the electric field at the emitter tips, allowing electrons to be extracted at relatively low electric field. An inexpensive …
