  1. 1. Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations to Explore Critical Property Relationships in Polymer Electrolytes : Polarity, Coordination, Ionic transport, Ion-pairing, and Ion-ion Correlations

    Author : Harish Gudla; Daniel Brandell; Chao Zhang; Andreas Heuer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Solid polymer electrolytes; molecular dynamics simulations; solvent polarity; ion-pairing; ion coordination; ion transport mechanisms; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry;

    Abstract : While ion transport in solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) has been explored for decades, there still remains controversies about its fundamental properties, often correlated with gaps between experimental and computational studies. Using molecular dynamics simulations to understand the complex transport mechanisms and also to fill these gaps is the main goal of this thesis. READ MORE

  2. 2. Cation Conduction and Coordination in Carbonyl-Containing Compounds : Li+ Transport in Alternative Polymer Electrolyte Host Materials

    Author : Therese Eriksson; Daniel Brandell; Jonas Mindemark; Claudio Gerbaldi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Solid polymer electrolytes; Lithium ion batteries; Ion transport; Polyester; Polycarbonate; Polyketone; Ion coordination; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry;

    Abstract : The field of solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) used to create safer lithium-ion batteries has been dominated by polyethylene oxide (PEO) since the discovery of its ion-conducting properties in the 1970s. In this thesis, as an alternative, the ion coordination and conduction properties of SPEs based on polyketones, polyesters and polycarbonates are investigated. READ MORE

  3. 3. Ionic Conduction and Bond Valence in Glasses

    Author : Andreas Hall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Neutron; Phosphate; Borate; reverse Monte Carlo; Glass; Bond Valence; Structure; Diffraction; X-ray; Ion Conduction;

    Abstract : Ion conducting glasses are highly interesting for several different applications, among them, chemical sensors, smart windows with variable optical properties and as electrolytes in batteries. The last example can take full advantage of the ease with which a thin film (... READ MORE

  4. 4. Magnetotransport Studies of Mn Ion-Implanted Nanowires

    Author : Waldomiro Paschoal; Linnaeus University; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hopping conduction; ferromagnetism; ion-implantation; Nanowire; GaMnAs; magnetoresistance; Fysicumarkivet A:2014:Paschoal;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the magnetotransport properties of highly Mn-doped crystalline GaAs nanowires. The GaAs nanowires were first grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy from gold seed particles, and subsequently implanted with Mn ions under varying conditions, e.g., ion fluence and acceleration voltage.

  5. 5. Anionic Graft Copolymers with Poly(ethylene oxide) Side-Chains; Synthesis, Solution Properties and Ion Conduction

    Author : Helene Dérand; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dieletric properites; ion conduction; solution properties; aggregation; amphiphilic polymers; poly ethylene oxide ; preparation; grafting; Polymer technology; biopolymers; Polymerteknik;

    Abstract : The research underlaying this thesis involves synthesis and characterization of well-defined anionic graft copolymers carrying poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) side-chains. Two different grafting techniques were used. Backbone polymers were prepared through radical terpolymerization of maleic anhydride, styrene and an additional comonomer. READ MORE
