▼ The development of hard tissues such as bone and teeth are examples of biomineralization processes in which organisms actively direct mineralization. The formation of hard tissues is a highly regulated process involving the coordination of extracellular matrix production by the cells and the mineralization of the matrix network regulated by proteins secreted by the cells. The formation of these tissues follows a sequence of events in a spatial and temporal manner dictated by cellular processes. In addition to the cells involved in the formation and remodeling of hard tissues, such as osteoblasts (OBs) and osteoclasts (OCs) in bone, other cell-types, such as breast and prostate tumor cells, can interact with bone. Two strategies were taken in this thesis to understand how cells are involved in the mineralization process. Cell culture systems were designed to examine cell-mineral interactions or to examine cell-mediated mineral formation. Chapter 1 discusses the requirements for sustaining cell viability and function as well as the various components involved in designing cell culture systems such as cell source, culture method, and mineral source. Culture systems to study cell-mineral interactions require an environment containing the mineral of interest for cells to be cultured upon. Hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, HA) is the main mineral component of bone and has been noted to change in size, shape, and crystallinity with age, anatomical location, and disease progression. Chapter 2 describes a two-step method for synthesizing hydroxyapatite nanoparticles with controlled shape, size, and crystallinity in order to evaluate how differences in HA crystal properties can affect cellular response. Three culture systems were developed and described in this work. Two systems were developed to utilize the synthetic hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (prepared in Chap. 2) for examining cell-mineral interactions. In Chapter 3, dry-annealed synthetic and commercial HA particles were combined with polylactide(co-glycolide) (PLG) and spin-coated onto glass substrates to form a film of PLG-HA to examine how changes in crystallinity can affect OB attachment and matrix production. Chapter 4 describes the integration of a series of hydrothermally aged HA nanoparticles into porous PLG scaffolds to examine breast cancer cell response to various HA nanoparticles with discrete sizes. Finally, Chapter 5 details the third system designed for culturing cells in a 3-D gel system that allows for the presence of 1-D gradients to study cell-mediated mineral formation with articular chondrocytes. Due to the breadth of components involved, designing culture systems for mineralization studies are complex and selection of cell source, culture method, and mineral source should be dictated by research questions of interest of particular aspects of these processes (Chapter 1). Chapter 2 demonstrates how controlling for reactant salts, reactant concentration, reaction duration, and reaction volume in the initial precipitation step leads to changes in… Advisors/Committee Members: Boskey, Adele (committeeMember), Wiesner, Ulrich B.

▼ Stimuli-responsive fibers were created by incorporating pH-sensitive nanoparticles into electrospun cellulose acetate (CA) and poly(lactic acid) (PLA) fibers. The fluorescent silica nanoparticles, Cornell dots (C dots), have both a fluorescent core (518 nm emission), and a fluorescent pH-sensitive shell (572 nm emission). Using confocal microscopy, the signaling effectiveness of these fibers was studied by varying several parameters: fiber diameter, substrate, and surface hydrophilicity. For the CA fibers, fiber diameter was varied by changing the feed rate during the electrospinning process to 0.03 mL/hr, 0.30 mL/hr and 0.30 mL/min, producing fibers with average diameters of 1.1 [MICRO SIGN]m, 1.8 [MICRO SIGN]m and 9.5 [MICRO SIGN]m, respectively. It was found that fibers with larger surface area had a greater sensitivity to pH change than fibers with smaller surface area. The response of the pH-sensitive fibers also varied when both the nanoparticles and CA fibers were applied/electrospun onto the surface of four different substrates: optical glass slides, cotton, cotton/polyester, and nylon/spandex fabrics. Fibers spun onto glass slides and cotton/polyester showed an improvement in sensitivity to pH change, while the cotton and nylon/spandex samples were greatly influenced by the chemistry inherent to these substrates. Poly(lactic acid) - b - poly(ethylene glycol) (PLA-b-PEG) copolymers with block lengths of 1000-750, 5000-1000 and 1000-5000 and bulk PEG were added to PLA electrospinning dopes to create hydrophilic but non-water soluble nanofibers. PLA-b-PEG block lengths strongly affected the total amount of PEG that could be incorporated, spinnability and fiber morphology. Solutions containing >1% w/w of the lowest molecular weight copolymer PLA (1000) - b - PEG (750) formed an unspinnable, cloudy gel. Addition of the PLA (5000) - b - PEG (1000) to the base spinning solution influenced fiber diameters and spinnability in the same manner as simply increasing PLA concentration in the spinning dope. Addition of PLA (1000) - b - PEG (5000) resulted in decreased fiber diameters, and allowed for the highest overall copolymer loading. In final fiber formulations, maximums of 0.9, 2.9 and 9.3 wt% PEG could be added to the fibers using the PLA-b-PEG 1000-750, 5000-1000 and 1000-5000 respectively. PEG (MW = 3350 g/mol) homopolymer was added to the spinning dopes to result in 1.0 and 5.0 wt% PEG in the final fibers. These spinning dopes were electrospun with more non-uniform and variable morphology and diameter size than occurred with the addition of PEG in block copolymer form. Water absorbance by electrospun nonwoven fabrics increased by four times over the control PLA with the addition of 1.0 wt% PEG, and by eighteen times with the addition of 9.3 wt% PEG with the block copolymers. At similar overall PEG loadings, the addition of PLA-b-PEG resulted in a two to four fold increase in water wicking over the addition of PEG homopolymer. The improvement in water wicking was mirrored in the pH-measurement data compiled for… Advisors/Committee Members: Baeumner, Antje J (committeeMember), Wiesner, Ulrich B. (committeeMember).

▼ This work undertakes the fundamental study of structure and dynamics of an entirely new class of organic-inorganic hybrid material created by densely grafting polymer chains to the nanoparticle surface. These systems can display fluid behavior even in the absence of any external solvent and have been termed as self-suspended nanoparticle fluids. This materials platform offers several technical opportunities and presents an entirely new system for fundamental studies. Nanoparticle volume fraction and tethered polymer molecular weight in this system can be changed in a straightforward way, allowing the structure and dynamics to be studied over a wide range. We have studied rheology, nanoparticle structure, tethered polymer dynamics and nanoparticle dynamics in this system to understand the governing interaction forces. Flow behavior has been studied by conventional steady and oscillatory shear rheology, nanoparticle structure has been studied by Small Angle X -ray Scattering (SAXS), tethered polymer dynamics has been studied by Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy and Nanoparticle dynamics has been studied by X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy (XPCS). We have discovered that these materials display characteristic rheological features of soft glassy materials and can be used as model systems to study soft colloidal glasses. In this work we have discovered several unexplored feature of soft glassy materials like the enhanced jamming with increasing temperature and accelerated dynamics with the application of shear strain. We have described our finding in the framework of soft glassy rheology (SGR) model. Tethered polymers in this system exhibit unexpected slow relaxation dynamics irrespective of their low molecular weight, which resembles the features observed in highly entangled polymers. We have proposed a simple theoretical framework to describe the relaxation dynamics of densely grafted polymers that captures the observed behavior. Nanoparticle dynamics in these materials exhibits slow and hyperdiffusive behavior, which follows the similar trends observed in rheology, indicating that the particle dynamics primarily governs the rheology. We have further extended this platform to create hybrid polymer networks having nanoparticles as junction points. These polymer networks exhibit unprecedented mechanical properties and display shape memory properties. Advisors/Committee Members: Wiesner, Ulrich B.

▼ The constant demand for increased circuit density and higher resolution patterning calls for simultaneous advancements in materials chemistry. A variety of possible approaches for next-generation lithography are explored, centering on the use of directly patternable self-assembling block copolymers, along with hafnium oxidebased nanoparticle photoresists. In one example of the first approach, a random copolymer brush layer of poly(styrene-ran-hydroxystyrene) was designed and synthesized to precisely tune the substrate/polymer surface energy for a lithographically patternable poly([alpha]methylstyrene-block-4-hydroxystyrene) (P[alpha]MS-b-PHOST) block copolymer. The surface was designed to avoid preferential wetting of either P[alpha]MS or PHOST domains to the substrate and orient the block copolymer domains vertically relative to the substrate. To neutralize the polymer/ vapor interface during solvent vapor processing, the film was exposed to a mixed solvent vapor of a defined polarity, creating vertical microdomains with long-range order. In the latter approach, hafnium oxide nanoparticles were covalently coated with a photo-reactive ligand, which allowed neighboring nanoparticles to form a crosslinked network upon exposure to ultraviolet light. The basic science of this new class of resist material is discussed. These negative-tone resists have so far demonstrated sub-50 nm resolution using 193nm interference lithography, and plasma etch resistance over thirteen times greater than PHOST under standard silicon etching conditions. In a combination of the two approaches, the co-assembly of the inorganic nanoparticles with the PHOST phase of P[alpha]MS-b-PHOST is shown. TEM and SAXS studies indicated the expansion of the microdomain periodicity upon nanoparticle incorporation. These block copolymer nanocomposite films offer enhanced functionality and a larger process window for subsequent pattern transfer into semiconductor substrates. In another example of co-assembly, phenolic molecular glass photoresists were blended with low molecular weight, triblock copolymer surfactants based on poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO). The miscibility of these blend components is shown to be a result of preferential hydrogen bonding between the hydroxyl groups attached to the molecular glass and the alkyl ether group of the PEO block, as shown by FTIR and DSC analysis. The blending resulted in an enhancement in segregation strength that led to the formation of sub-10nm self-assembled morphologies, as verified by SAXS. Options for the lithographic patterning of these blends are explored. Lastly, a combined additive and subtractive patterning technique is demonstrated that allows the deposition of multiple block copolymer films, of different domain sizes and pitches, on the same layer of the substrate. The approach used a semifluorinated negative-tone photoresist which is designed to resist intermixing when spin coated on top of a block copolymer film. Advisors/Committee Members: Wiesner, Ulrich B.

▼ Purely inorganic electrospun nanofibers containing iron and nickel catalytic nanocrystals are generated via sol-gel chemistry, with those nanocrystals in various concenctrations as well as locations by coaxial electrospinning. These nanofibers, following thermal treatment and precursor crystallization, are then applied as catalysts to the alkaline hydrolysis of glucose where they display conversions that increase with increasing catalyst concentration at the surface of the nanofiber. However, a long pretreatment drying time is required to reactivate the entrained catalyst. To decrease the pretreatment drying time a new fabrication method is developed; binding high concentrations of metal salts to a water-soluble polymer, electrospinning and using thermal treatments to remove the polymer and crystallize the metal salts. Nanofibers of a variety of morphologies and concentrations are fabricated through this approach and applied to the alkaline hydrolysis of glucose. These results detail that by increasing the concentration of available catalytic surface area within the diffusion length scale of the reactant, the temperature range at which near pure hydrogen is produced increases nearly 60˚C. Subsequently this highly loaded water based electrospinning approach is used to generate nanofibers for a variety of applications. The electrical conductivity of these nanofibers are found for a variety of metals, including copper, iron, nickel and cobalt, and shown to be: tunable with the crystal morphology within the nanofiber matrix, orders of magnitude higher than conductivities reported for other one dimensional materials, and directionally controlled by the anisotropy of the nanofiber mat. The magnetic properties of iron, nickel, and cobalt nanofibers are shown to be a function of both size and temperature ranging from near superparamagnetic behavior to highly coercive as controlled by precursor inclusion and thermal treatment procedure. Alternating layers of aligned nanofibers are subsequently used to overcome curling effects caused by volume loss during thermal treatment. By orienting perpendicular layers next to each other, axial shrinkage is minimized thereby maintaining long, linear nanofibers as well as flat, macroscopic mats. Finally, using the highly loaded water-based technique and the alternating layers of nanofibers, preliminary nanofibrous materials are synthesized for power generation applications such as lithium ion battery anodic materials and thin film photovoltaic devices. These materials display great promise due to high surface areas containing proper band gap or high capacity materials, but many future works are proposed for these materials.

▼ One of the fundamental goals of biological engineering is the harnessing of biological systems to produce desired products. Protein production of exogenous proteins in living cells has long been a staple of molecular biology. However, living biological systems present fundamental limitations as the scientists' desire to produce more complex and varying molecules in cells competes with normal cell processes. Ideally, one can isolate the required cell pathway away from the living system in order to explore the full range of possible molecular permutations allowed by chemistry without the limitations of biology. In vitro protein production allows life's central dogma to be performed outside the confines of a cell, creating the possibility of producing toxic proteins and testing full mutation spaces in the DNA-RNA-Protein pathway. This possibility also opens up the need for materials to interface with genes and protein in an in vitro platform. Our lab has engineered a DNA gel that interacts with the gene-of-interest to increase protein yields while protecting the gene from degradation. DNA has long been investigated as a genetic material, but only in the pat decade has its vast potential as a generic polymer been elucidated. Beyond its monodispersity, the specificity of binding interactions in Watson-Crick base-pairing allows a unique level of control over structure and material organization at the nanoscale. In creating networked DNA structures that can incorporate genes into the gel network, we create protein-producing gels. However, further engineering of DNA gels is required in order to produce a system more comparable to the morphology and functionality of a cell, notably the isolation of gene sets and the ability to connect genotype and phenotype when testing protein activity. This thesis work discusses methods to create cell-size DNA gels that possess the ability to both produce and capture protein, practical considerations for DNA manipulation in cell-free protein production, and provides insight into further functionalization of DNA gels to provide more diverse applications in the context of protein engineering.

▼ Significant advances in the amount of electrical energy that can be stored in electrochemical cells, such as rechargeable batteries require the adoption of high energy metallic anodes including Li, Na, Al, Zn, etc. Such anodes introduce as significant technical challenges because they are known to form rough electrodeposits, loosely termed dendrites, during the device operation. This produces irreversible active material (electrode and electrolyte) losses during normal cell operation and poses safety concerns because the dendrites can proliferate in the inter-electrode space, shorting the cell internally. Though similar phenomenon has been investigated in the more conventional context of metal electroplating, more complex effects can dominate in a battery configuration especially at current densities below the limiting current and in cells where the metal anodes undergo chemical reaction with electrolyte components. In this thesis, a comprehensive materials strategy involving structural and interfacial engineering is pursued to stabilize lithium metal electrodeposition. The strategy is based on guidelines defined by a theoretical linear stability analysis of metal electrodeposition in structured electrolytes. The origin of deposition instability is revealed to involve fundamental features of electrolytes and interfaces near metal anodes, which lead to electro- convective, morphological and chemical instability. I show that the first two instabilities can be addressed by using a nanostructured polymer/ceramic hybrid electrolyte, which exhibits high conductivity, high modulus and the ability to rectify ion transport through confinement. The well-defined nanoporous structure of the electrolytes also confine the length scale of the electrodeposit, which allows surface tension and other weaker forces at the interface to flatten rough electrodeposits, promoting dendrite-free operation. The chemical instability poses a more serious challenge because it is intrinsic to the chemistry of the electrode and electrolyte components; any exposure of one to the other can in principle drive a reaction cascade that ends in unconstrained growth in the cell impedance and premature failure. I show that this challenge can be overcome by the careful design of solid electrolyte interphases (SEIs) that regulate mass transport of reactive electrolyte ingredients and at the same time are able to flex to accommodate volume expansion of the anode. A significant finding is that these features can be realized using electrolyte additives designed to selectively break-down in-situ to form SEI with explicit composition set by the chemistry of the additive. A particularly important example are additives that break down to form halogen salts, which exhibit low surface diffusion barrier and fast interfacial transport. Such materials are shown to be highly effective in improve battery cycle lifetime. A second category of SEI explored in the study are so- called artificial SEI formed by pretreating the metallic electrode with polymer, metals, and metal… Advisors/Committee Members: Wiesner, Ulrich B.

▼ Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease in which the patient’s own immune system attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. It is estimated that in the US alone there are as many as three million people with T1D, with approximately 80 newly diagnosed patients every day. One in every 400 children and adolescents in the US has T1D and the rate of T1D incidence among children under the age of 14 is estimated to increase by 3% annually worldwide. Current treatments include injections and infusion of exogenous insulin and require constant attention and strict patient compliance. The transplantation of pancreases or islets offers a better alternative. However, its wide application is limited by the need for long-term immunosuppression and a persistent shortage of donor organs. Cell encapsulation has been shown to hold promise for effective, long-term treatment of T1D. However, encapsulation systems developed to date still face various challenges. For example, alginate hydrogel capsules, despite their biocompatibility and function, are difficult to retrieve or replace completely due to the large number of capsules required for effective treatment and the complicated organ structures in the transplantation site (i.e. peritoneal space), contributing to risks and concerns in case of transplant failure or medical complications. On the other hand, macroscopic devices (e.g. planar diffusion chambers), although considered retrievable, are challenging to scale up to a clinically relevant capacity due to their small surface area for mass transfer. In this thesis, I present three independent yet correlated research projects developing advanced cell encapsulation systems. Firstly, I developed a novel method to fabricate toroidal particles. Alginate hydrogel toroidal particles have a shorter diffusion path within compared to conventional spherical alginate hydrogel particles, facilitating mass transport and benefiting encapsulated cells. Secondly, to enhance the mechanical robustness of the hydrogel and prevent cells from escaping, I engineered a novel nanofiber-enabled encapsulation device by combining electrospun nanofibers with biocompatible hydrogel. Last but not least, to further push cell encapsulation therapies toward clinical applications, I designed a retrievable and scalable device. I demonstrated the therapeutic potential of the device through the correction of chemically induced diabetes in C57BL/6 mice using rat islets for 3 months as well as in immunodeficient SCID-Beige mice using human islets for 4 months. I further showed, as a proof of concept, the scalability and retrievability of the device in dogs. In general, these projects may contribute to a cellular therapy for T1D.

▼ The synthesis of single crystal materials spanning macroscopic dimensions has enabled the fundamental understanding of structure-property relationships that have spurred revolutions in fields such as microelectronics, optics, and energy conversion. Block copolymers form ordered assemblies at length scales between that of molecular and colloidal crystals. Self-assembly occurs by confined phase separation, where two or more polymers, covalently bound to each other, fill their miscibility gap with ordered morphologies containing periodicities on the length scale of the polymer chain, roughly 10-100 nm. While the type of morphology and periodicity can be exquisitely controlled, only the simplest of self-assembled morphologies have been successfully prepared as "mesophase" single crystals with coherent periodic domains spanning macroscopic distances. This dissertation focuses on the complex ordered network structure known as the double gyroid (space group230, Ia3d), which is prepared by the coassembly of a triblock terpolymer, poly(isoprene)-b-poly(styrene)-b-poly(dimethylaminoethylmethacrylate) (PS-b-PS-b-PDMAEMA, or simply ISA), blended with an oligomeric ceramic precursor, poly(methyl-vinyl-silazane) (PMVS). For the first time, this structure is assembled into single crystal domains that can be identified by eye and easily isolated for further study. These gyroid mesophase crystals span up to 14 mm2, more than three orders of magnitude larger than previously reported. These gyroid nanocomposites are characterized primarily with small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) and electron microscopy. Importantly, the ISA/PMVS blends can be converted to ordered porous single crystal ceramic monoliths retaining the double gyroid morphology past 1100 ˚C, which can subsequently be used as templates for the infiltration of materials with specific functionality (e.g. superconductors). These mesophase single crystals are needed to realize angle-dependent and emergent properties predicted by theory/simulation such as negative refractive index. This dissertation begins with an introduction (Chapter 1) discussing classical nucleation theory and block copolymer thermodynamics. Chapter 2 documents the first preparation of the double gyroid morphology from ISA/PMVS blends and their transformation to a double gyroid mesoporous ceramic. Chapter 3 describes the preparation and characterization of double gyroid mesophase single crystals. Chapter 4 examines the behavior of the ISA/PMVS morphology diagram beyond the compositions previously studied. The conclusion (Chapter 5) suggests future experiments to expand upon findings reported in Chapters 2-4. Advisors/Committee Members: Coates, Geoffrey (committeeMember), Wiesner, Ulrich B.

▼ Global electricity production from renewable sources has grown dramatically in recent years. While this has fostered lower dependence on carbon-based energy generation, the intermittent nature of these renewable energy resources has introduced new technical challenges to regional electrical grids. One approach to address intermittent energy generation and associated inefficiencies is to introduce grid-scale electricity storage using redox flow batteries. Redox flow batteries provide a reasonably stable, long-term means to store renewable energy. Vanadium redox flow batteries (VRBs) have been of particular interest due to their chemical stability, long life cyclability, and potential for high capacity electrical storage. VRBs also have a number of research challenges. One key factor limiting market penetration of redox flow batteries in energy storage portfolios is the high capital cost associated with a comparatively low power density technology. To this end, current research efforts focus on improving the energy density of VRBs to warrant this cost in the long term. This work focuses on four approaches to improve the power density of VRBs: the use of conductive membrane coatings, the generation of electroactive hydrophilic surface functional groups, use of drop-in electrocatalysts via direct reduction of metal salts, and chemical synthesis of lead oxide particles on the VRB anode. First, it is demonstrated that the rate capability of VRBs can be improved by electrospray deposition of a conductive carbon/binder mixture onto the surface of the ion-exchange membrane in a VRB. This work goes on to show dramatic rate improvements by hydrothermally treating graphite felt electrodes with various surface modifiers, most notably ammonium persulfate. Alternative approaches to improve the current density of a VRB involve the use of electrocatalysts on the surface of the anode. This work shows that the use of drop-in metal salts and the chemical synthesis of lead oxides are both facile routes to form catalytically-active nanoparticles on the surface of the VRB anode, which significantly accelerate the kinetics of otherwise sluggish anodic reactions in VRBs. These four methods each offer a commercially scalable and inexpensive pathway to increasing the capacity and power density of aqueous vanadium redox flow batteries.

▼ The metastatic cascade comprises of a series of events, which tumor cells must complete to form macrometastases at a secondary site. Due to its spread and aggressive nature, metastatic tumor is difficult to treat, and tumor metastasis remains the main cause of death in cancer patients. Most epithelial tumors over-express tissue factor (TF), the initiator of the extrinsic pathway of coagulation cascade. This over-expression of TF has been shown to tumor progression and metastasis in different studies. In this thesis, we studied two mechanisms by which tumor-derived TF can interact with endothelial cells to promote cancer metastasis. Endothelial cells act as a natural barrier between the tumor cells in circulation and secondary organs. Tumor cells must arrest on endothelial cells in order to extravasate and enter a new organ. Most previous studies have focused on the classical receptor-ligand interactions involved in leukocyte recruitment during inflammation, such as selectins and integrins. We hypothesized that TFexpressing tumor cells can mediate adhesion to the endothelium by interacting with its endogenous inhibitor, tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), which is constitutively expressed on endothelial cells. Using in vitro models, we found that high TF-expressing tumor cells bound to recombinant TFPI and endothelial cells under static conditions; however, under shear, the tumor cells adhered to recombinant TFPI, but not endothelial cells. We postulate that the TFPI expres- sion in our endothelial cell model (human umbilical vein) was too low to mediate adhesion. Unfortunately, due to the lack of availability of other primary endothelial cells that express higher TFPI (e.g. lung microvascular endothelium), we could not test this theory further. Endothelial cells, highly dynamic and responsive to its local environment, perform a range of functions in the body. Endothelial responses could be hijacked by tumor cells to promote a tumor-permissive metastatic environment. Tumor cells secrete extracellular vesicles (EV) that can interact with distant cells and re-educate them to a pro-tumor phenotype. Tumor cells secrete two types of EV - microvesicles (100-1000nm) and exosomes (30-100nm). In this part of the thesis, we evaluated the isolation of exosomes and microvesicles using common established protocols - filtration and differential centrifugation. We found that the isolation methods highly impacted the size distribution, the purity and TF-mediated procoagulant activity in the isolated fractions. We then evaluated whether tumor-derived TF-expressing EV (consist of microvesicles and exosomes) promote pro-metastatic behaviors in endothelial cells in vitro. We observed binding and uptake of EV by endothelial cells. These EV also signaled to endothelial cells and promoted a pro-adhesive (upregulation of E-selectin and intercellular cellular adhesion molecule-1), pro-inflammatory (increased secretion of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 and interleuking-8) and procoagulant (increase in TF-mediated procoagulant activity)… Advisors/Committee Members: Wiesner,Ulrich B.

▼ Majority of the conventional plastics and composites used today are derived from petroleum, a non-renewable resource. A very high percentage of these materials end up in the landfills causing significant end of life disposal problem. Plant based natural polymers offer a sustainable, yearly renewable and environment friendly solution to the current plastic waste problem. Biodegradable polymers such as polysaccharides and proteins obtained from plants, animals and microbes are convenient and offer several advantages over petroleum-derived synthetic polymers. In the present research environment friendly processes were developed to crosslink starches to achieve higher mechanical properties as well as lower hydrophilicity. Thermoset starch based polymer resins were developed using polycarboxylic acids as crosslinking agents, utilizing a completely 'green' water based processes. The reactivity of starches varied owing to the inherent differences in the internal structure of the starches depending on their origin. Nanocomposites were fabricated by incorporating micro/nanofibrillated cellulose (MFC) in thermoset starch based resin. Incorporation of MFC showed significant enhancement in tensile properties (strength, stiffness and toughness) of the nanocomposites. The starch based resins were characterized for their adhesive properties for bonding wood. It was observed that the shear strength of the adhesive increased with increase in amylopectin content as well as with the increase in crosslinking of the starch based adhesive. Studies were compared to commercially available Tite Bond 2 adhesive which is considered a superior adhesive for wood. The research was also conducted on soy protein which also is an abundantly available biopolymer. Soy proteins are available commercially as defatted soy flour (SF), soy protein isolate (SPI) and soy protein concentrate (SPC). Of all these varieties SF, which contains about 55% protein and 32% carbohydrate, is the most easily available and inexpensive material and was used for this research. A novel, clean crosslinking reaction scheme was developed to separate the carbohydrates, modify them and use to crosslink the separated soy protein in soy flour. This process completely avoided the use of any external crosslinker. The resulting crosslinked protein was shown to have enhanced mechanical, thermal and moisture absorption properties comparable to commercially available plastics and composites.

▼ In this work I present both a phenomenological and fundamental study of the crystallization of the organic-inorganic halide perovskites; this includes determining the overall structural evolution, extraction of kinetic parameters for the primary crystallization step, and establishing several processing-structure relationships. In addition, I will show examples of the application of the primary results to control crystal growth and enhance the material's performance in working devices. The organic-inorganic halide perovskites have shown great promise as a potential next generation photovoltaic (PV) material with device efficiencies exceeding 17%. For the last 2-3 years most research efforts have been dedicated to understanding the general operating principles of perovskite PV devices and engineering better device architectures. Although these efforts have resulted in an unprecedented increase in efficiencies over a very short period of time, many reports point to film or crystal morphology as a limiting factor. In order to control film and crystal growth a better understanding of this systems fundamental crystallization behavior is needed. Employing in-situ wide angle X-ray scattering allowed for the determination of the general evolution of thin films cast from solution. This initial work revealed an Ostwald Step Rule path in which the final perovskite is preceded by a solid-state precursor structure. Understanding the general evolution allowed for monitoring of the precursor-perovskite transition to establish processing-structure relationships. One such relationship is the temperature profile used in the annealing step, optimization of this profile results in better film coverage and better crystal texture, both of which increase device performance. The second major study was to elucidate the disposition of the constituent salts during crystallization and confirmed that all reagent salts are completely dissociated during film formation. This result led to the realization that the crystallization was insensitive to the lead source allowing for manipulation of the system kinetics by using alternate lead compounds. Finally, a study of the kinetics of the precursor-perovskite transition provided for the extraction of the activation energy. Combined with the previous work, the kinetics study gave the insights needed to determine a general formula for the precursor structure as well as a general pathway for the solid-state transformation. The implication of the work presented here is better control of perovskite thin film growth through manipulation of the processing and chemistry employed. Several recent reports, as well as my own experimental results, are beginning to show the value of this understanding through better films, made at lower temperatures and faster times, and providing improved performance in working PV devices.

▼ Block copolymer (BCP) self-assembly has found broad use in applications ranging from nanocomposites to nanolithography by exploiting the precise control of nanoscale order possible over macroscopic length scales. One application garnering significant attention for commercialization uses this nanoscale order to augment current photolithography patterning to achieve sub-20 nm features through directed self assembly (DSA). Extending current lithography to these smaller length scales is critical to enable cost-effective next-generation semiconductor devices, furthering technological progress and maintaining the pace of Moore's law. As with many of these applications, DSA utilizes BCPs starting from deeply metastable states. Detail of the initial phase segregation process, structure formation, and refinement are critical to device function, efficacy, and yield. However, understanding of this initial phase segregation from deeply metastable states, especially the temporal evolution, is currently lacking. This ignorance stems in part from both a difficulty in experimentally measuring the short time structural response of polymers, and on the computational difficulty in modeling large enough systems at high fidelity over molecular timescales. Furthermore, for DSA, the anneal must achieve a near perfectly aligned equilibrium structure. The timescale required, and thus the cost, to reach the fully aligned state is dependent upon kinetic pathways, especially past any potential trapped defect states. Laser spike annealing (LSA) can achieve high temperatures for short durations allowing investigation of potential process windows in the microsecond to millisecond time scales. In this work, a CO2 gas laser (120 W, wavelength=10600 nm) and a solid state diode laser (250 W, wavelength=980 nm), were used to achieve peak temperatures up to ~1000 degrees C on time scales from 0.05 ms to 10 ms. Additionally, high throughput experiments of the lateral gradient LSA (lgLSA) method were used to fully explore these time and temperature regimes. This has enabled exploration of a previously inaccessible temperature regime and the determination of kinetic parameters that potentially offers access to new processing regimes and resulting structures. For these short duration anneals, it is shown that the thermal stability of typical organic materials is extended by over 450 degrees C compared to hot plate limits. This stability was quantified using Arrhenius kinetics with activation enthalpies ranging between 0.6 and 1.2 eV. The activation energies appear to scale with the primary (backbone) bond formation energy and inversely with the bond polarity. This extended thermal stability was exploited to probe the self-assembly kinetics of cylinder forming poly(styrene-block-methyl methacrylate) (PS-b-PMMA, 54 kg/mol, fraction PS=0.67) by annealing at temperatures up to 550 degrees C for timescales from 0.25 ms to 10 ms with heating and cooling rates in excess of 10⁶ K/s. Segregation kinetics were quantified by X-ray scattering (micro-GISAXS) and… Advisors/Committee Members: Ober, Christopher Kemper (committeeMember), Pollock, Clifford Raymond (committeeMember), Wiesner, Ulrich B.

▼ Superlattices and crystals comprised of polymer-capped nanoparticles have generally been produced by the evaporation of organic solvent with the aid of optimized nonspecific forces between the polymer ligands. In contrast with these entropy-based strategies, recent efforts have exploited the enthalpically-favorable interactions between DNA molecules conjugated to nanoparticle surfaces to drive the formation of nanoparticle crystals in aqueous solvent. However, if treated as a pure polyelectrolyte without specific base-pairing interactions, control can still be exercised over the effective size and rigidity of the DNA corona by adjusting parameters such as surface density and ionic strength. Such structural control is difficult to achieve in organic solvent, making entropy-driven crystallization in aqueous solvent worthy of investigation. Since the integration of biomolecule-based components with solid-state devices is becoming a new direction in nanotechnology, it is critical to better understand factors at play in the evaporation process. We produced nanoparticle superlattices by placing a droplet containing DNAcapped nanoparticles on a thin, micro-perforated film and allowing the droplet to evaporate. As the droplet shrank, smaller droplets were left behind in the perforations which packed the nanoparticles into free-standing, highly-ordered membranes upon evaporation. The membranes were of single-particle thickness and were fixed to the boundaries of the perforations. Real-time investigations of the crystallization process were performed using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). These studies revealed that crystallization occurs almost immediately when base-pairing forces are present, but could also be induced by volume restriction in the absence of DNA base-pairing forces. The behavior of nanoparticles at the air-liquid interface was probed using a technique in which the X-ray beam was oriented to skim the interface, revealing the formation of crystalline Gibbs monolayers under optimal ionic strength conditions. In all of these crystalline formations, DNA sequence length played a critical role in determining the interparticle spacing. In addition, thermodynamic models were developed to elucidate the spring-like behavior of the DNA corona during the assembly process, which could potentially be used to guide the assembly of nanoparticle crystals with unique optical properties.
