Using Heterogeneous Information Sources for Understanding and Predicting Biological Effects of Compounds
Understanding a compound’s biological effects such as its Mechanism of Action (MoA) and safety profile is a challenging task in drug discovery process. However, this understanding can facilitate drug discovery process and ... -
Self-Assembly in Physisorbed Monolayers via Directional Intermolecular Interactions
In this work, the ability of two non-covalent directional interactions (halogen and hydrogen bonds) to influence the structure of self-assembled physisorbed organic monolayers is considered. These layers exhibit only weak, ... -
Local Structures of Niobium-Containing Cation-Disordered Rocksalt Materials: Cobalt-Free Cathodes for Lithium-Ion Batteries
Electrochemical capacity improvements on current state-of-the-art cathode materials for Li-ion batteries such as LiCoO2 are becoming limited, and new families of materials with inherently greater capacities are required ... -
Exploring the Functionality and Application of Cyclic Phosphazanes
In this thesis the application of, and various synthetic routes to novel cyclodiphosphazanes were reported. Applications towards building blocks of macrocyclic structures, electrochemically active ligands for inorganic ...
