Biomineralisation by earthworms - an investigation into the stability and distribution of amorphous calcium carbonate
(2015)BACKGROUND: Many biominerals form from amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC), but this phase is highly unstable when synthesised in its pure form inorganically. Several species of earthworm secrete calcium carbonate granules ... -
Spectroscopic studies of on-surface synthesis of chiral graphene nanoribbons
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2023)The field of on-surface synthesis bridges physics, chemistry, material and surface science by combining the tunability of molecular materials, the advantages of self-assembly with the sturdiness of covalently bonded ... -
X-ray spectroscopic studies of the electronic structure of chromium based p-type transparent conducting oxides
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Physics. Discipline of Physics, 2018)In this thesis the electronic, optical, electrical, and mechanical properties of two p-type transparent conducting oxides will be explored, primarily by spectroscopic techniques. The initial chapters outline how the ...
