Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are an emerging class of semiconductor materials that offer exciting new properties for future electronic and optoelectronic applications. However, many ongoing challenges related to synthesis and processing must be overcome before this nascent technology can become industrially viable. In this thesis, processing-related phenomena relevant to the fabrication of TMD heterostructures, alloys, and nanoporous membranes are presented. This thesis begins with an investigation of the role of substrate temperature in two-step chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of MoS₂/WS₂ heterostructures. We demonstrate diffusion-mediated synthesis of inverted lateral heterostructures following low MoS2 growth temperatures in the second CVD step and homogeneous Mo[subscript x]W[subscript 1-x]S₂ alloyed crystals following higher MoS₂ growth temperatures.
Investigating the nature of this diffusion-mediated process, we identify an energetically favorable atomistic model proposing that transition metal diffusion is driven by a heterogeneous distribution of sulfur vacancies. This model is corroborated by the synthesis of a composition-graded Mo[subscript x]W[subscript 1-x]S₂ alloy crystals in which the final-stage spatial distribution of transition metal atoms correlates with intermediate-stage distribution of point defects. These heterogeneous crystals allow for correlation of the local optical properties with the local composition, demonstrating a variation in photoluminescence intensity spanning two orders of magnitude and reaching the maximum value for equicompositional alloy Mo₀.₅W₀.₅S₂ (x=0.5). Furthermore, the correlation between intermediate-stage distribution of point defects and final-stage spatial distribution of transition metal atoms enables the opportunity for bespoke patterning.
Utilizing a laser annealing technique, we demonstrate the ability to locally induce defects that define the regions of preferential nucleation during subsequent CVD growth. Finally, defect processing is also demonstrated in nanoporous TMD membrane applications. Combining modeling with experimentation, we demonstrate the relationship between vacuum annealing time and temperature with nanopore properties such as average radius and edge structure. Control of these properties is essential for the fabrication of functional nanoporous membrane devices for sensing, filtration, and energy applications. This thesis motivates further work on TMD processing in pursuit of developing a fundamental understanding of the defect-driven diffusion mechanism, a larger library of interesting TMD compositions and structures, as well as industrially viable TMD devices.

The efficiency of many energy storage and conversion technologies, such as hydrogen fuel cells, rechargeable metal-air batteries, and hydrogen production from water splitting, is limited by the slow kinetics of the oxygen electrochemical reactions. Transition-metal oxides can exhibit high catalytic activity for oxygen electrochemical reactions, which can be used to improve efficiency and cost of these devices. Identifying a catalyst "design principle" that links material properties to the catalytic activity can accelerate the development of highly active, abundant transition metal oxide catalysts fore more efficient, cost-effective energy storage and conversion system. In this thesis, we demonstrate that the oxygen electrocatalytic activity for perovskite transition metal oxide catalysts primarily correlates to the a* orbital ("eg") occupation. We further find that the extent of B-site transition metal-oxygen covalency can serve as a secondary activity descriptor. We hypothesize that this correlation reflects the critical influences of the a* orbital and transition metal-oxygen covalency on the ability of the surface to displace and stabilize oxygen-species on surface transition metals. We further propose that this ability to stabilize oxygen-species reflect as the rate-limiting steps of the oxygen electrochemical reactions on the perovskite oxide surfaces, and thus highlight the importance of electronic structure in controlling the oxide catalytic activity.

Full textWe study in detail the solution of a basic strongly correlated model,namely, the dimer Hubbard model. This model is the simplest realization ofa cluster DMFT problem.We provide a detailed description of the solutions in the ``coexistentregion'' where two (meta)stable states of the DMFT equations are found, onea metal and the other an insulator. Moreover, we describe in detail howthese states break down at their respective critical lines. We clarify thekey role played by the intra-dimer correlation, which here acts in additionto the onsite Coulomb correlations.We review the important issue of the Mott-Peierls insulator crossoverwhere we characterize a variety of physical regimes. In a subtle change inthe electronic structure the Hubbard bands evolve from purely incoherent(Mott) to purely coherent (Peierls) through a state with unexpected mixedcharacter. We find a singlet pairing temperature T* below which thelocalized electrons at each atomic site can bind into a singlet and quenchtheir entropy, this uncovers a new paradigm of a para-magnetic Mottinsulator.Finally, we discuss the relevance of our results for the interpretation ofvarious experimental studies in VO₂. We present a variety of argumentsthat allow us to advance the conclusion that the long-lived (meta-stable)metallic phase, induced in pump-probe experiments, and the thermallyactivated M₁ meta-stable metallic state in nano-domains are the same.In fact, they may all be qualitatively described by the dimerizedcorrelated metal state of our model

Full textGutzwiller wave function is an important theoretical technique for treating local electron-electron correlations nonperturbatively in condensed matter and materials physics. It is concerned with calculating variationally the ground state wave function by projecting out multi-occupation configurations that are energetically costly. The projection can be carried out analytically in the Gutzwiller approximation that offers an approximate way of calculating expectation values in the Gutzwiller projected wave function. This approach has proven to be very successful in strongly correlated systems such as the high temperature cuprate superconductors, the sodium cobaltates, and the heavy fermion compounds. In recent years, it has become increasingly evident that strongly correlated systems have a strong propensity towards forming inhomogeneous electronic states with spatially periodic superstrutural modulations. A good example is the commonly observed stripes and checkerboard states in high-$T_\mathrm c$ superconductors under a variety of conditions where superconductivity is weakened. There exists currently a real challenge and demand for new theoretical ideas and approaches that treats strongly correlated inhomogeneous electronic states, which is the subject matter of this thesis. This thesis contains four parts. In the first part of the thesis, the Gutzwiller approach is formulated in the grand canonical ensemble where, for the first time, a spatially (and spin) unrestricted Gutzwiller approximation (SUGA) is developed for studying inhomogeneous (both ordered and disordered) quantum electronic states in strongly correlated electron systems. The second part of the thesis applies the SUGA to the $t$-$J$ model for doped Mott insulators which led to the discovery of checkerboard-like inhomogeneous electronic states competing with $d$-wave superconductivity, consistent with experimental observations made on several families of high-$T_{\mathrm c}$ superconductors. In the third part of the thesis, new concepts and techniques are developed to study the Mott transition in inhomogeneous electronic superstructures. The latter is termed ``SuperMottness'' which is shown to be a general framework that unifies the two paradigms in the physics of strong electronic correlation: Mott transition and Wigner crystallization. A cluster Gutzwiller approximation (CGA) approach is developed that treats the local ($U$) and extended Coulomb interactions ($V$) on equal footing. It is shown with explicit calculations that the Mott-Wigner metal-insulator transition can take place far away from half-filling. The mechanism by which a superlattice potential enhances the correlation effects and the tendency towards local moment formation is investigated and the results reveal a deeper connection among the strongly correlated inhomogeneous electronic states, the Wigner-Mott physics, and the multiorbital Mott physics that can all be united under the notion of SuperMottness. It is proposed that doping into a superMott insulator can lead to coexistence of local moment and itinerant carriers. The last part of the thesis studies the possible Kondo effect that couples the local moment and the itinerant carriers. In connection to the sodium rich phases of the cobaltates, a new Kondo lattice model is proposed where the itinerant carriers form a Stoner ferromagnet. The competition between the Kondo screening and the Stoner ferromagnetism is investigated when the conduction band is both at and away from half-filling

Full textGlobal warming, due to the increasing CO2 concentration in the atmosphere, is a major issue of the 21th century, hence the need to move towards the use of renewable energies and the development of electrical storage devices, such as Li-ion batteries. Along that line, a new electrode material called Li-rich NMCs have been developed, having higher capacity, 290 mAh/g, than commercial materials, like LiCoO2 (150 mAh/g), thanks to participation of oxygen anions into the redox reaction. This process, called anionic redox, unfortunately comes with voltage hysteresis preventing the commercialization of Li-rich NMC. To alleviate this issue while increasing the capacity, fundamental understanding on anionic redox is needed, specifically concerning two points: is anionic redox limited in terms of capacity? And what is the origin of the voltage hysteresis? In a first part, with the aim to assess the limit of anionic redox capacity, we designed new compounds, having enhanced oxygen oxidation behavior, belonging to the A3MO4 family (A being Li or Na and with M a mix of Ru, Ir, Nb, Sb or Ta). We performed their synthesis, deeply characterized their structure, and, by studying their charge compensation mechanism, we showed that anionic redox is always limited by either O2 release or metal dissolution. In a second part, we designed two new materials, Li1.3Ni0.27Ta0.43O2 and Li1.3Mn0.4Ta0.3O2, having different voltage hysteresis, in order to identify the origin of this phenomenon. Coupling spectroscopic techniques with theoretical calculations, we suggest that the electronic structure, namely the size of the charge transfer band gap, plays a decisive role in voltage hysteresis
