    • The role of halogen bonding in biomolecules 

      Hogan, Simon William Leslie (University of St Andrews, 2018-06-27) - Thesis
      This study concerns halogen bonding between small molecules. Except where otherwise stated herein this investigation was performed exclusively using the M06-2X density functional, in conjunction with the 6-31+G* basis set ...

    • Manganese spinels for rechargeable lithium batteries 

      Huang, Haitao (University of St Andrews, 1997-06) - Thesis
      The synthesis, characterisation and performance of lithium manganese oxide spinels have been studied in terms of their application as cathode materials in rechargeable lithium batteries. A new air stable synthesis based ...

    • Studies of possible solid oxide fuel cell anode materials in the MgO:TiO2:ZrO2 ternary system 

      Sutherland, John D. W. (University of St Andrews, 1997-06) - Thesis
      The MgO:TiO2 :ZrO2 ternary system was investigated as a possible novel anode material in a solid oxide fuel cell. Titanium-substituted yttria-stabilised zirconias have the necessary electrical conductivity properties for ...

    • Zirconia-based electroceramic materials for SOFC applications 

      Feighery, Alan John (University of St Andrews, 1999-01) - Thesis
      The phase relations, electrical properties and structural characteristics of doped cubic stabilised Zirconia based electroceramic materials have been investigated using a number of characterisation techniques. The phase ...

    • A multi-diverse approach to catalysis : ruthenium, gold and FLP catalysis 

      Piola, Lorenzo (University of St Andrews, 2018-06-27) - Thesis
      Ruthenium-based homogenous catalysis is a broad and extremely useful branch of transition metal catalysis. Surely, the most famous example is olefin metathesis, for which Yves Chauvin, Robert Grubbs and Richard Schrock ...
