Computational Investigation Of The Ionization Potential Of Lead Sulfide Quantum Dots, Jessica Beyer
Computational Investigation Of The Ionization Potential Of Lead Sulfide Quantum Dots, Jessica Beyer
Scripps Senior Theses
The purpose of this work was to determine the impact of quantum dot size on ionization potential and to determine how the presence of carbonyl-based ligands affect the ionization potential of lead sulfide quantum dot systems. Ionization potential (IP) is defined as the energy required to remove an electron from an atom, molecule, or material. IP helps scientists determine how reactive the material of interest is, which is crucial information when manufacturing nanomaterials. Accurate quantum chemical calculations of ionization potential are challenging due to the computational cost associated with the numerical solution of the Dyson equation. In this work, the …

Partially Filled Latin Squares, Mariam Abu-Adas
Scripps Senior Theses
In this thesis, we analyze various types of Latin squares, their solvability and embeddings. We examine the results by M. Hall, P. Hall, Ryser and Evans first, and apply our understandings to develop an algorithm that the determines the minimum possible embedding of an unsolvable Latin square. We also study Latin squares with missing diagonals in detail.
