From Fundamentals to Spectroscopic Applications of Density Functional Theory
(University of Waterloo, 2020-05-29)Density functional theory (DFT) and its time-dependent counterpart (TDDFT) are crucial tools in material discovery, drug design, biochemistry, catalysis, and nanoscience. However, despite its exact theoretical basis, ... -
The Interactions of Graphene with Ionic Solutions and Their Effects on the Differential Capacitance for Sensing Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2019-08-28)Nano-scale devices continue to challenge the theoretical understanding of microscopic systems. Of particular interest is the characterization of the interface electrochemistry of sensors, which operate as field effect ... -
Modeling Photoluminescence Decay Dynamics in Nanocrystals
(University of Waterloo, 2016-08-17)Photoluminescence resulting from donor-acceptor recombination in gallium oxide nanocrystals was studied at short and long time scales for different nanocrystal sizes. A model for the intensity decay was formulated with two ... -
Relativistic Theory of the Interaction of Two-Dimensional Materials with Moving Charged Particles
(University of Waterloo, 2019-08-08)Prompted by the recent surge of interest in integrating atomically thin layers of conducting materials into nanophotonic and nanoplasmonic devices; we propose, in this thesis, a theoretical framework to analyze the ...
