Transcript – Bottom-Up Synthesis of Nanographenes and its Effects on Electrical and Optical Properties

My name is Sam Kempel, and I’ll be talking about our collaboration, looking at graffiti’s to start with, I’ll go in and describe some of manses, work and documents of the Maier group. So essentially to set this problem, theoretically, she carried out the imagination of the time harmonic Maxwell’s equations in an aperiodic layered structure of 2D metallic sheets immersed in a heterogeneous in any such opaque dielectric medium. Now, if you consider the domain Omega within the Boundary Epsilon D and an electromagnetic wave propagating in the interior of that domain, we can use the Maxwell’s equations of that wave in the variations for to wave at a cell problem and consequently an effective tensor matrix epsilon IJA effective as shown the cell problem intenser allowed her to computationally set up the Maxwell’s equations and the geometric structure described before. The response of the Tenzer nano ribbons and nanotubes to frequency is shown here, and that’s what helped us survive at the network and structures that are shown in the bottom left section of the poster was made by me in the missional group. These structures only differed in the number of nitrogen that they contained from zero to six. The movie structure of these compounds that I made show that with at least some nitrogen content, we do see a dramatic drop in the energy gap. Mainly because visible light absorption is much lower in energy than UV light absorption and the carbon zero nitrogen could only absorb in the UV, we are able to further probe these electronic effects of nitrogen doping by running radio frequency tests. These were performed by David Pumbaa, Deb Nath and Dr Green SLAPP. Essentially, she was able to show is that compounds had an increased nitrogen content, had an increased radio frequency response and therefore had an increased semiconducting efficiency. This work was a very fruitful collaboration. We thank the T-3 president’s fund for funding it.
