NMR studies of conduction mechanisms in electrolyte materials for fuel cells
Get PDFFuel cells are clean and efficient electrochemical energy conversion devices which have garnered much scientific attention in recent years as clean renewable sources of energy. However, development is currently restrained by materials limitations, particularly those associated with the electrolyte. A number of liquid electrolytes are currently in use in commercial applications but solid electrolytes are preferable as they are more robust, more efficient and less susceptible to corrosion. In this work, a number of solid conducting materials which have potential to be applied in fuel cells were studied by NMR techniques. By gaining detailed mechanistic insight into charge transport we hope to contribute to the development of these materials.
In the first part of this thesis charge conduction mechanisms is investigated in ionic conductors. In Chapter 3 19F NMR relaxometry is applied to investigate fluoride ion dynamics in the fluoride conducting superionic material, PbSnF4 and in Chapter 4 1H NMR relaxometry is used to examine proton motions along hydrogen bonds in the novel superprotonic material, Cs6(HSO4)3(H2PO4)4. The results of the NMR analysis show good agreement with bulk physical properties from diffraction and conductivity techniques for both materials and a new mechanism for fluoride ion conduction in PbSnF4 is proposed.
In the second part of this thesis, the synthesis and analysis of conducting polyaniline is presented. In Chapter 5 the synthesis of amorphous polyaniline samples with varying dopant content is presented and in Chapter 6 a number of methods for the synthesis of nano-structured doped polyaniline are examined. Both amorphous and semi-crystalline polymers are analysed by 19F and 1H NMR relaxometery and show similar dependence on the dimensionality of charge carriers through the heterogeneous regions of the material. The dimensionality of this motion is shown to be dependent on both the conductivity and the relative dopant concentration. In an appendix, preliminary NMR relaxometry results on molecular dynamics in ionic liquids are presented
Current, emerging and future technologies for sensing the environment
Get PDFThis paper reviews current technologies that are used for environmental monitoring, and presents emerging technologies that will dramatically improve our ability to obtain spatially distributed, real-time data about key indicators of environmental quality at specific locations. Futuristic approaches to environmental monitoring that employ fundamental breakthroughs in materials science to revolutionise the way we monitor our environment will also be considered. In particular, approaches employing biomimetic and 'adaptive'/'stimuli-responsive' materials will be highlighted, as these could play an important role in the realization of small, low power, low cost, autonomous sensing and communications platforms that could form the building blocks of the much vaunted environmental 'sensor web'

Words for Future Generations: Celebrating Alaska History and Study with Terrence and Dermot Cole
No full textPlease join us to celebrate The Big Wild Soul of Terrence Cole, an eclectic collection of work created to honor Alaska's beloved public historian. Edited by Frank Soos and Mary Ehrlander and published by University of Alaska Press, the inspired collection of essays, authored by Terrence's students, colleagues and friends, highlight research spanning the humanities and social sciences. Included are essays by University of Alaska professors Stephen Haycox, Ross Coen, Sherry Simpson, Katherine Ringsmuth, Frank Soos and Lee Huskey. Terrence Cole is Emeritus Professor of History and Northern Studies, UAF, and the director of the UAF Office of Public History. He is author of numerous books and essays, including Banking on Alaska: A History of the National Bank of Alaska; The Cornerstone on College Hill: An Illustrated History of the University of Alaska Fairbanks; Crooked Past: The History of a Frontier Mining Camp; Nome: City of the Golden Beaches; and Fighting for the 49th Star: C.W. Snedden and the Crusade for Alaska Statehood. Dermot Cole is a journalist and former columnist for the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner. He is author of several books, including North to the Future: The Alaska Story 1959-2009; Fairbanks: A Gold Rush Town That Beat the Odds; Frank Barr: Alaskan Pioneer Bush Pilot and One-Man Airline.

Dermot Bolger’s Ghosting the War
No full textDermot Bolger’s Walking the Road (2007) is a tribute to Francis Ledwidge (1887–1917), one of the greatest Irish poets of the First World War. Focusing on the life and afterlife of Ledwidge who, as depicted in Bolger’s play, emblematizes the condition of other Great War combatants doomed to oblivion, this essay, concerned with the various functions of the deployment of ghosts in Bolger’s drama, argues that spectrality can become an effective means of revealing the plight of the war dead: the unremembered, whose names were effectively erased from public memory and who, thus turned into homeless revenants, were forced into a continual involvement in the war from which they cannot escape, even after death. As a spectral witness who moves between pre-war Ireland and the world of the trenches, Bolger’s hero makes one aware how similar these realities are. Furthermore, as a classic case of shell shock, he demonstrates the role of haunting in the narrative of trauma, identity and memory. Last but not least, whilst enhancing the gothic dimension of the war, Frank’s perceptions, as well as his spectral discourse, not only contribute significantly to illuminating the enigma which he personified, but, by providing an insight into his search for himself, they convey the plight of truth seekers who grasp, yet never fully encompass the Irish experience of the war
