  abstract  = {The urge of light utilization in fabrication of materials is as encouraging as challenging. Steadily increasing energy consumption in accordance with rapid population growth, is requiring a corresponding solution within the same rate of occurrence speed. Therefore, creating, designing and manufacturing materials that can interact with light and in further be applicable as well as disposable in photo-based applications are very much under attention of researchers. In the era of sustainability for renewable energy systems, semiconductor-based photoactive materials have received great attention not only based on solar and/or hydrocarbon fuels generation from solar energy, but also successful stimulation of photocatalytic reactions such as water splitting, pollutant degradation and organic molecule synthesisThe turning point had been reached for water splitting with an electrochemical cell consisting of TiO2-Pt electrode illuminated by UV light as energy source rather than an external voltage, that successfully pursued water photolysis by Fujishima and Honda in 1972. Ever since, there has been a great deal of interest in research of semiconductors (e.g. metal oxide, metal-free organic, noble-metal complex) exhibiting effective band gap for photochemical reactions. In the case of environmental friendliness, toxicity of metal-based semiconductors brings some restrictions in possible applications. Regarding this, very robust and 'earth-abundant' organic semiconductor, graphitic carbon nitride has been synthesized and successfully applied in photoinduced applications as novel photocatalyst. Properties such as suitable band gap, low charge carrier recombination and feasibility for scaling up, pave the way of advance combination with other catalysts to gather higher photoactivity based on compatible heterojunction. This dissertation aims to demonstrate a series of combinations between organic semiconductor g-CN and polymer materials that are forged through photochemistry, either in synthesis or in application. Fabrication and design processes as well as applications performed in accordance to the scope of thesis will be elucidated in detail. In addition to UV light, more attention is placed on visible light as energy source with a vision of more sustainability and better scalability in creation of novel materials and solar energy based applications.},

  abstract  = {Solar photocatalysis is the one of leading concepts of research in the current paradigm of sustainable chemical industry. For actual practical implementation of sunlight-driven catalytic processes in organic synthesis, a cheap, efficient, versatile and robust heterogeneous catalyst is necessary. Carbon nitrides are a class of organic semiconductors who are known to fulfill these requirements. First, current state of solar photocatalysis in economy, industry and lab research is overviewed, outlining EU project funding, prospective synthetic and reforming bulk processes, small scale solar organic chemistry, and existing reactor designs and prototypes, concluding feasibility of the approach. Then, the photocatalytic aerobic cleavage of oximes to corresponding aldehydes and ketones by anionic poly(heptazine imide) carbon nitride is discussed. The reaction provides a feasible method of deprotection and formation of carbonyl compounds from nitrosation products and serves as a convenient model to study chromoselectivity and photophysics of energy transfer in heterogeneous photocatalysis. Afterwards, the ability of mesoporous graphitic carbon nitride to conduct proton-coupled electron transfer was utilized for the direct oxygenation of 1,3-oxazolidin-2-ones to corresponding 1,3-oxazlidine-2,4-diones. This reaction provides an easier access to a key scaffold of diverse types of drugs and agrochemicals. Finally, a series of novel carbon nitrides based on poly(triazine imide) and poly(heptazine imide) structure was synthesized from cyanamide and potassium rhodizonate. These catalysts demonstrated a good performance in a set of photocatalytic benchmark reactions, including aerobic oxidation, dual nickel photoredox catalysis, hydrogen peroxide evolution and chromoselective transformation of organosulfur precursors. Concluding, the scope of carbon nitride utilization for net-oxidative and net-neutral photocatalytic processes was expanded, and a new tunable platform for catalyst synthesis was discovered.},

  abstract  = {Its properties make copper one of the world's most important functional metals. Numerous megatrends are increasing the demand for copper. This requires the prospection and exploration of new deposits, as well as the monitoring of copper quality in the various production steps. A promising technique to perform these tasks is Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS). Its unique feature, among others, is the ability to measure on site without sample collection and preparation. In this work, copper-bearing minerals from two different deposits are studied. The first set of field samples come from a volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposit, the second part from a stratiform sedimentary copper (SSC) deposit. Different approaches are used to analyze the data. First, univariate regression (UVR) is used. However, due to the strong influence of matrix effects, this is not suitable for the quantitative analysis of copper grades. Second, the multivariate method of partial least squares regression (PLSR) is used, which is more suitable for quantification. In addition, the effects of the surrounding matrices on the LIBS data are characterized by principal component analysis (PCA), alternative regression methods to PLSR are tested and the PLSR calibration is validated using field samples.},

  abstract  = {The retention of actinides in different oxidation states (An(X), X = III, IV, VI) by a calcium-silicate-hydrate (C-S-H) phase with a Ca/Si (C/S) ratio of 0.8 was investigated in the presence of gluconate (GLU). The actinides considered were Am(III), Th(IV), Pu(IV), and U(VI). Eu(III) was investigated as chemical analogue for Am(III) and Cm(III). In addition to the ternary systems An(X)/GLU/C-S-H, also binary systems An(X)/C-S-H, GLU/C-S-H, and An(X)/GLU were studied. Complementary analytical techniques were applied to address the different specific aspects of the binary and ternary systems. Time-resolved laser-induced luminescence spectroscopy (TRLFS) was applied in combination with parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) to identify retained species and to monitor species-selective sorption kinetics. ¹³C and ²⁹Si magic-angle-spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were applied to determine the bulk structure and the composition of the C-S-H surface, respectively, in the absence and presence of GLU. The interaction of Th(IV) with GLU in different electrolytes was studied by capillary electrophoresis-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (CE-ICP-MS). The influence of GLU on An(X) retention was investigated for a large concentration range up to 10⁻² M. The results showed that GLU had little to no effect on the overall An(X) retention by C-S-H with C/S of 0.8, regardless of the oxidation state of the actinides. For Eu(III), the TRLFS investigations additionally implied the formation of a Eu(III)-bearing precipitate with dissolved constituents of the C-S-H phase, which becomes structurally altered by the presence of GLU. For U(VI) sorption on the C-S-H phase, only a small influence of GLU could be established in the luminescence spectroscopic investigations, and no precipitation of U(VI)-containing secondary phases could be identified.},

  abstract  = {Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) are promising energy storage devices by asymmetrically combining anode with a high energy density close to lithium-ion batteries and cathode with a high power density and long-term stability close to supercapacitors. For the further improvement of LICs, the development of electrode materials with hierarchical porosity, nitrogen-rich lithiophilic sites, and good electrical conductivity is essential. Nitrogen-rich all-carbon composite hybrids are suitable for these conditions along with high stability and tunability, resulting in a breakthrough to achieve the high performance of LICs. In this thesis, two different all-carbon composites are suggested to unveil how the pore structure of lithiophilic composites influences the properties of LICs. Firstly, the composite with 0-dimensional zinc-templated carbon (ZTC) and hexaazatriphenylene-hexacarbonitrile (HAT) is examined how the pore structure is connected to Li-ion storage property as LIC electrode. As the pore structure of HAT/ZTC composite is easily tunable depending on the synthetic factor and ratio of each component, the results will allow deeper insights into Li-ion dynamics in different porosity, and low-cost synthesis by optimization of the HAT:ZTC ratio. Secondly, the composite with 1-dimensional nanoporous carbon fiber (ACF) and cost-effective melamine is proposed as a promising all-carbon hybrid for large-scale application. Since ACF has ultra-micropores, the numerical structure-property relationships will be calculated out not only from total pore volume but more specifically from ultra-micropore volume. From these results above, it would be possible to understand how hybrid all-carbon composites interact with lithium ions in nanoscale as well as how structural properties affect the energy storage performance. Based on this understanding derived from the simple materials modeling, it will provide a clue to design the practical hybrid materials for efficient electrodes in LICs.},

  abstract  = {We live in an era driven by fossil fuels. The prevailing climate change suggests that we have to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The only way forward is to use renewable energy sources. Among those, solar energy is a clean, affordable, and sustainable source of energy. It has the potential to satisfy the world's energy demand in the future. However, there is a need to develop new materials that can make solar energy usable. Photovoltaics (PV) are devices that convert photon energy into electrical energy. The most commonly used solar cells are based on crystalline silicon. However, the fabrication process for silicon solar cells is technologically difficult and costly. Solar cells based on lead halide perovskites (PSCs) have emerged as a new candidate for PV applications since 2009. To date, PSCs have achieved 26\% power-conversion-efficiency (PCE) for its single junction, and 33.7\% PCE for tandem junction devices. However, there is still room for improvement in overall performance. The main challenge for the commercialization of this technology is the stability of the solar cells under operational conditions. Inorganic perovskite CsPbI3 has attracted researchers' interest due to its stability at elevated temperatures, however, inorganic perovskites also have associated challenges, e.g. phase stability, larger voltage loss compared to their organic-inorganic hybrid counterparts, and interface energy misalignment. The most efficient inorganic perovskite solar cell is stable for up to a few hundred hours while the most stable device in the field of inorganic PSCs reported so far is at 17\% PCE. This suggests the need for improvement of the interfaces for enhanced open circuit voltage (VOC), and optimization of the energy alignment at the interfaces. This dissertation presents the study on interfaces between the perovskite layer and hole transport layer (HTL) for stable CsPbI3 solar cells. The first part of the thesis presents an investigation of the CsPbI3 film annealing environment and its subsequent effects on the perovskite/HTL interface dynamics. Thin films annealed in dry air were compared with thin films annealed in ambient air. Synchrotron-based hard X-ray spectroscopy (HAXPES) measurements reveal that annealing in ambient air does not have an adverse effect; instead, those samples undergo surface band bending. This surface band modification induces changes in interface charge dynamics and, consequently, an improvement in charge extraction at the interfaces. Further, transient surface photovoltage (tr-SPV) simulations show that air-annealed samples exhibit fewer trap states compared to samples annealed in dry air. Finally, by annealing the CsPbI3 films in ambient air, a PCE of 19.8\% and Voc of 1.23 V were achieved for an n-i-p structured device. Interface engineering has emerged as a strategy to extract the charge and optimize the energy alignment in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). An interface with fewer trap states and energy band levels closer to the selective contact helps to attain improved efficiencies in PSCs. The second part of the thesis presents a design for the CsPbI3/HTM interface. In this work, an interface between CsPbI3 perovskite and its hole selective contact N2,N2,N2′,N2′,N7,N7,N7′,N7′-octakis(4-methoxyphenyl)-9,9′-spirobi[9H-fluorene]-2,2′,7,7′-tetramine(Spiro-OMeTAD), realized by trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO), a dipole molecule is introduced. On top of a perovskite film well-passivated by n-octyl ammonium Iodide (OAI), it created an upward surface band-bending at the interface byTOPO that optimizes energy level alignment and enhances the extraction of holes from the perovskite layer to the hole transport material. Consequently, a Voc of 1.2 V and high-power conversion efficiency (PCE) of over 19\% were achieved for inorganic CsPbI3 perovskite solar cells. In addition, the work also sheds light on the interfacial charge-selectivity and the long-term stability of CsPbI3 perovskite solar cells. The third part of the thesis extends the previous studies to polymeric poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT) as HTL. The CsPbI3/P3HT interface is critical due to high non-radiative recombination. This work presents a CsPbI3/P3HT interface modified with a long-chain alkyl halide molecule, n-hexyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (HTAB). This molecule largely passivates the CsPbI3 perovskite surface and improves the charge extraction across the interface. Consequently, a Voc of over 1.00 V and 14.2\% PCE were achieved for CsPbI3 with P3HT as HTM. Overall the results presented in this dissertation introduce and discuss methods to design and study the interfaces in CsPbI3-based solar cells. This study can pave the way for novel interface designs between CsPbI3 and HTM for charge extraction, efficiency and stability.},

  abstract  = {Fabricating electronic devices from natural, renewable resources has been a common goal in engineering and materials science for many years. In this regard, carbon is of special significance due to its biological compatibility. In the laboratory, carbonized materials and their composites have been proven as promising solutions for a range of future applications in electronics, optoelectronics, or catalytic systems. On the industrial scale, however, their application is inhibited by tedious and expensive preparation processes and a lack of control over the processing and material parameters. Therefore, we are exploring new concepts for the direct utilization of functional carbonized materials in electronic applications. In particular, laser-induced carbonization (carbon laser-patterning (CLaP)) is emerging as a new tool for the precise and selective synthesis of functional carbon-based materials for flexible on-chip applications. We developed an integrated approach for on-the-spot laser-induced synthesis of flexible, carbonized films with specific functionalities. To this end, we design versatile precursor inks made from naturally abundant starting compounds and reactants to cast films which are carbonized with an infrared laser to obtain functional patterns of conductive porous carbon networks. In our studies we obtained deep mechanistic insights into the formation process and the microstructure of laser-patterned carbons (LP-C). We shed light on the kinetic reaction mechanism based on the interplay between the precursor properties and the reaction conditions. Furthermore, we investigated the use of porogens, additives, and reactants to provide a toolbox for the chemical and physical fine-tuning of the electronic and surface properties and the targeted integration of functional sites into the carbon network. Based on this knowledge, we developed prototype resistive chemical and mechanical sensors. In further studies, we show the applicability of LP-C as electrode materials in electrocatalytic and charge-storage applications. To put our findings into a common perspective, our results are embedded into the context of general carbonization strategies, fundamentals of laser-induced materials processing, and a broad literature review on state-of-the-art laser-carbonization, in the general part.},

  abstract  = {Complex emulsions are dispersions of kinetically stabilized multiphasic emulsion droplets comprised of two or more immiscible liquids that provide a novel material platform for the generation of active and dynamic soft materials. In recent years, the intrinsic reconfigurable morphological behavior of complex emulsions, which can be attributed to the unique force equilibrium between the interfacial tensions acting at the various interfaces, has become of fundamental and applied interest. As such, particularly biphasic Janus droplets have been investigated as structural templates for the generation of anisotropic precision objects, dynamic optical elements or as transducers and signal amplifiers in chemo- and bio-sensing applications. In the present thesis, switchable internal morphological responses of complex droplets triggered by stimuli-induced alterations of the balance of interfacial tensions have been explored as a universal building block for the design of multiresponsive, active, and adaptive liquid colloidal systems. A series of underlying principles and mechanisms that influence the equilibrium of interfacial tensions have been uncovered, which allowed the targeted design of emulsion bodies that can alter their shape, bind and roll on surfaces, or change their geometrical shape in response to chemical stimuli. Consequently, combinations of the unique triggerable behavior of Janus droplets with designer surfactants, such as a stimuli-responsive photosurfactant (AzoTAB) resulted for instance in shape-changing soft colloids that exhibited a jellyfish inspired buoyant motion behavior, holding great promise for the design of biological inspired active material architectures and transformable soft robotics. In situ observations of spherical Janus emulsion droplets using a customized side-view microscopic imaging setup with accompanying pendant dropt measurements disclosed the sensitivity regime of the unique chemical-morphological coupling inside complex emulsions and enabled the recording of calibration curves for the extraction of critical parameters of surfactant effectiveness. The deduced new "responsive drop" method permitted a convenient and cost-efficient quantification and comparison of the critical micelle concentrations (CMCs) and effectiveness of various cationic, anionic, and nonionic surfactants. Moreover, the method allowed insightful characterization of stimuli-responsive surfactants and monitoring of the impact of inorganic salts on the CMC and surfactant effectiveness of ionic and nonionic surfactants. Droplet functionalization with synthetic crown ether surfactants yielded a synthetically minimal material platform capable of autonomous and reversible adaptation to its chemical environment through different supramolecular host-guest recognition events. Addition of metal or ammonium salts resulted in the uptake of the resulting hydrophobic complexes to the hydrocarbon hemisphere, whereas addition of hydrophilic ammonium compounds such as amino acids or polypeptides resulted in supramolecular assemblies at the hydrocarbon-water interface of the droplets. The multiresponsive material platform enabled interfacial complexation and thus triggered responses of the droplets to a variety of chemical triggers including metal ions, ammonium compounds, amino acids, antibodies, carbohydrates as well as amino-functionalized solid surfaces. In the final chapter, the first documented optical logic gates and combinatorial logic circuits based on complex emulsions are presented. More specifically, the unique reconfigurable and multiresponsive properties of complex emulsions were exploited to realize droplet-based logic gates of varying complexity using different stimuli-responsive surfactants in combination with diverse readout methods. In summary, different designs for multiresponsive, active, and adaptive liquid colloidal systems were presented and investigated, enabling the design of novel transformative chemo-intelligent soft material platforms.},

  abstract  = {A new solid-state material, N-butyl pyridinium diiodido argentate(I), is synthesized using a simple and effective one-pot approach. In the solid state, the compound exhibits 1D ([AgI2](-))(n) chains that are stabilized by the N-butyl pyridinium cation. The 1D structure is further manifested by the formation of long, needle-like crystals, as revealed from electron microscopy. As the general composition is derived from metal halide-based ionic liquids, the compound has a low melting point of 100-101 degrees C, as confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry. Most importantly, the compound has a conductivity of 10(-6) S cm(-1) at room temperature. At higher temperatures the conductivity increases and reaches to 10(-4 )S cm(-1) at 70 degrees C. In contrast to AgI, however, the current material has a highly anisotropic 1D arrangement of the ionic domains. This provides direct and tuneable access to fast and anisotropic ionic conduction. The material is thus a significant step forward beyond current ion conductors and a highly promising prototype for the rational design of highly conductive ionic solid-state conductors for battery or solar cell applications.},
