Size and Morphology Variation in Multiferroic MOFs: A Magnetic, Dielectric and Spectroscopic Study

This dissertation is organized in two parts. The first part summarizes work in a newly developed synthetic route to perovskite-like MOFs, offering control over particle size and morphology. The second part of the dissertation cover spectroscopic work done to elucidate the nature of the f...

Description
Summary:This dissertation is organized in two parts. The first part summarizes work in a newly developed synthetic route to perovskite-like MOFs, offering control over particle size and morphology. The second part of the dissertation cover spectroscopic work done to elucidate the nature of the ferroelectric transition in this family of metal-organic frameworks. === A Dissertation submitted to the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry in partial fulfillment of the Doctor of Philosophy. === Fall Semester 2015. === November 9, 2015. === Condensed Matter Physics, Materials Science, Physical Chemistry === Includes bibliographical references. === Naresh Dalal, Professor Directing Dissertation; Irinel Chiorescu, University Representative; Geoffrey Strouse, Committee Member; Lei Zhu, Committee Member; Ken Knappenberger, Committee Member.
