Nanodot-Based Organic Memory Devices, Zhengchun Liu

Doctoral Dissertations

In this study, resistor-type, diode-type, and transistor-type organic memory devices were investigated, aiming at the low-cost plastic integrated circuit applications. A series of solution-processing techniques including spin-coating, inkjet printing, and self-assembly were employed to fabricate these devices.

The organic resistive memory device is based on a novel molecular complex film composed of tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) and a soluble methanofullerene derivative [6,6]-phenyl C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM). It has an Al/molecules/Al sandwich structure. The molecular layer was formed by spin-coating technique instead of expensive vacuum deposition method. The current-voltage characteristics show that the device switches from the initial 'low' conduction state to …

Kinetics And Stoichiometry Of The Aquation Reaction Of Pentaaquodihalomethyl Chromium(Iii) Ions, Mohammad Javaid Akhtar

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

This study was designed to provide information about the mechanisms of pentaaquodihalomethyl chromium(III) ions (halo chloro, bromo and iodo).

...

Mechanisms based on carbonium ion, carbeno and carbenoid type intermediates are proposed. A mechanism based on the nucleophillic attack (S_N2) of water on the carbon center leading to a metal-formyl type intermediate is suggested as best fitting all the criteria observed in these studies.

3,3-Diphenyl-2-Morpholinone Derivatives Of 2-Amino-2-Deoxy-D-Allose., Ram Babu

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

A new cyclic protective group has been fused to the cis amino alcohol group of benzyl 2-amino-3,5-o-benzylidene-2-deoxyβ-D-Allopyranoside, by way of a unique rearrangements mechanism. To establish the 2-morpholinone structure, chemical studies, such as reduction and acetylation were conducted.

Comparative spectroscopic studies using ir, pmr, and C-13 nmr confirmed the assigned structures.

The 2-morpholinone ring was cleaved by mild alkaline hydrolysis and could be closed again with acetic anhydride in pyridine. An oxazolidinone derivation of benzyl 2-amino-4,6-o-benzylidene-2-deoxyβ-D-allopyranoside was prepared in a quantitative yield by a modification of a known method.

Protective group properties of the oxazolidinone were studied prior to the …

The Thermal Rearrangement Of Triarylacetonitrile Oxides., Leslie Wayne Gibbs

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

This research is a detailed study of the rearrangement of triarylacetonitrile oxides to the corresponding triarylmethylisocyanates. The kinetics of the rearrangement of triphenylacetonitrlle oxide was followed by infrared absorption spectroscopy using the peak due to the N-0 stretching (1307cm^-1). A study, both, using the differential method (i.e., a plot of the logs of the initial slopes vs. the log of the concentration) and a check of the integrated forms of the rate expressions to determine which gave a constant value for the rate constant showed that the reaction is first order.

From measurements of the rate constant, k, …

Birch Reduction Of Benzamide, N-Substituted Benzamides And Biphenylene, Luther Dickson

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The Birch reduction of benzamide with sodium and absolute ethanol. 95% ethanol, or tert-butanol in liquid ammonia gave 1,4-dihydrobenzamide in varying amounts. The amide group was not reduced. The two most important variables encountered were the alcohol used and whether or not ammonium chloride was added after the reduction was completed. Without this addition of ammonium chloride, little or no 1,4-dihydrobenzamide was present after workup, while with its addition some 1,4-dihydrobenzamide formed whether the proton source was absolute ethanol, 95% ethanol, or tert-butanol. The highest yield was obtained with tert-butanol with ammonium chloride being added. Addition of ammonium chloride apparently …

Polarography Of Selected Metal Ions In Anhydrous Aliphatic Diamines, Frederick William Foss Jr.

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

A search of the literature revealed that no study has sought to measure and compare the polarographic solvent properties of the anhydrous aliphatic diamines. In fact, there has been no reported instance of the use of anhydrous 1,3-propanediamine or 1,4-butanediamine in any electro- chemical system.
