Functional Oligothiophenes for Use in Self-Assembled Monolayer Field-Effect Transistors

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
A R. Murphy, Clayton Mauldin, J M. Frechet, Paul C. Chang, Kanan Putambekar, Kin-Yip Phoa, V Subramanian, Dean DeLongchamp, Daniel A. Fischer, Eric K. Lin
Asymmetric, end-functionalized thiophene oligomers capable of self-assembly and covalent bonding to silicon surfaces have been synthesized. Monolayer films were made using solution or Langmuir-Blodgett deposition techniques. Characterization of the films

Imperfect Surface Order and Functionalization in Vertical Carbon Nanotube Arrays Probed by Near Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Spectroscoy (NEXAFS)

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
T Hemraj-Benny, S Banerjee, S Sambasivan, Daniel A. Fischer, G Eres, Alexander Puretzky, David B. Geohegan, D H. Lowndes, J A. Misewich, S S. Wong
Probing surface order in nanotube systems is of fundamental importance for incorporation of these materials into practical electronic devices. The current study pertains to analysis of the surface orientation of vertically aligned single-walled and multi

NEXAFS Characterization of Poly(amino acids)

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
N T. Samuel, Daniel A. Fischer, David G. Castner
The near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectra of poly(amino acids) at the carbon, nitrogen and oxygen k-edges are investigated in this study. The poly(amino acid) NEXAFS spectra at the k-edges closely resemble the spectra of the

Quantitative Evaluation of Perfluorinated Alkylthiol Molecular Order on Gold Surfaces

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
L Gamble, D Radford, Daniel A. Fischer, D W. Grainger, David G. Castner
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of perfluoroalkylthiols [CF 3(CF 2) xCH 2CH 2SH (x=3, 5, 7, and 9)] on gold were examined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS), and static time of flight secondary

Synchrotron Based Surface Science to Probe Polymeric Interfacial Regions

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
Joseph~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined Lenhart, Daniel A. Fischer
Synchrotron based X-ray absorption spectroscopy was utilized to probe the chemistry and structure of polymers in interfacial regions, including the interfacial regions, including the interfacial composition of filled epoxy composites, and the surface

Understanding Deviations in Lithographic Patterns Near Interfaces: Characterization of Antireflective Coatings (ARC) and the ARC/Resist Interface

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
Joseph~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined Lenhart, Daniel A. Fischer, S Sambasivan, Eric K. Lin, Wen-Li Wu, Douglas Guerrero, Yijun Wang, R Puligadda
Interactions between a bottom anti-reflective coating (BARC) and a photo-resist can critically impact lithographic patterns. For example, a lithographic pattern can shrink or spread near a BARC interface, a process called undercutting or footing

Charge-transfer satellites in the photoemission and x-ray absorption spectra of SrTiO3 and TiO2: Experiment and first-principles theory

March 10, 2021
Author(s)
Eric L. Shirley, Joseph Woicik, Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Abdul K. Rumaiz, Joshua J. Kas, John J. Rehr, Conan Weiland
Complete ab initio real-time cumulant and Bethe-Salpeter-equation calculations accurately capture the detailed satellite structure observed in both the photoemission and x-ray absorption spectra of the transition-metal compounds SrTiO3 and TiO2. Real-space

January 26, 2021
Author(s)
Eliot Gann, Glenn Holland, R Joseph Kline, Peter Beaucage, Dean DeLongchamp, Daniel A. Fischer, Brian Collins, Terry McAfee, Christopher McNeill, Thomas Crofts
We present the design and performance of a Resonant Soft X-ray Scattering (RSoXS) station designed for soft matter characterization built by the National institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) at the National Synchrotron Light Source-II (NSLS-II)

Semiconducting to Metallic Electronic Landscapes in Defects Controlled Two-Dimensional ?-d Conjugated Coordination Polymer Thin Films

October 16, 2020
Author(s)
Cherno Jaye, Daniel A. Fischer, Jonathan Ogle, Nabajit Lahiri, Christopher Tassone, Janis Louie, Luisa Whittaker-Brooks
Two-dimensional coordination polymers (2D CPs) are of significant interest due to their intriguing structural, optical, and electrical properties which can be tuned through the selective coordination of different metals and organic linkers. Although, 2D

Reversible Room-Temperature Fluoride-Ion Insertion in a Tunnel-Structured Transition Metal Oxide Host

July 6, 2020
Author(s)
Cherno Jaye, Wasif Zaheer, Justin L. Andrews, Forrest P. Hyler, Conan Weiland, David A. Shapiro, Jinghua Guo, Jesus M. Velazquez, Sarbajit Banerjee, Abhishek Parija, Daniel A. Fischer
An energy storage paradigm orthogonal to conventional Li-ion battery chemistries can be conceptualized by employing anions as the primary charge carriers. F-ion conversion chemistries show promise but have limited cyclability as a result of the significant
