Matrix isolation studies of transition metal halides and main group Lewis acid‒base complexes (2018)
Thesis
Sakr, A. K. A. M. (2018). Matrix isolation studies of transition metal halides and main group Lewis acid‒base complexes. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4224599

The main purpose of this work was to synthesise and study the binary fluorides of nickel, cobalt and chromium, and the binary halides of palladium and molybdenum in solid argon matrices. Both UV/vis spectroscopy and FTIR spectroscopy were employed to... Read More about Matrix isolation studies of transition metal halides and main group Lewis acid‒base complexes.

A spectroscopic and imaging investigation of sporopollenin-metal interactions (2017)
Thesis
Alkhatib, F. M. (2017). A spectroscopic and imaging investigation of sporopollenin-metal interactions. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4220724

The main objective has been the determination of the nature of the interaction of metal complexes and salts with the surface of sporopollenin exine capsules (SEC) and other naturally occurring spore exines. These natural materials derived from plant... Read More about A spectroscopic and imaging investigation of sporopollenin-metal interactions.

A matrix isolation study of transition metal halides and their structure. (2009)
Thesis

Configurationally restricted bis-tetraazamacrocyclic complexes: chemokine receptor antagonists (2009)
Thesis
McRobbie, G. W. J. (2009). Configurationally restricted bis-tetraazamacrocyclic complexes: chemokine receptor antagonists. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4213191

The chemokine receptor CXCR4 is a trans-membrane protein which has been implicated in many physiological and pathological processes including cancer, rheumatoid arthritis and most significantly HIV replication. CXCR4 plays a vital role in embryonic d... Read More about Configurationally restricted bis-tetraazamacrocyclic complexes: chemokine receptor antagonists.

Electroluminescence and inorganic phosphor science (2007)
Thesis
Metsios, I. (2007). Electroluminescence and inorganic phosphor science. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4213196

The research is focussed on wide bandgap 11-VI semiconductors, and more specifically on ZnS and CdS, with applications as thin film electroluminescent displays in the expanding display device market. The science of electroluminescent semiconductors a... Read More about Electroluminescence and inorganic phosphor science.

The determination of the core structure and core surfactant interface in overbased detergents (2002)
Thesis
Rogerson, E. (2002). The determination of the core structure and core surfactant interface in overbased detergents. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4216198

Overbased detergents are oil additives, which are included in oil to neutralise the acids that are generated as by-products during the combustion process within an engine. These overbased detergents have been investigated on an atomic scale by the pr... Read More about The determination of the core structure and core surfactant interface in overbased detergents.

A matrix isolation study of main group and transition metal atom cryochemistry (2001)
Thesis
Harris, N. B. (2001). A matrix isolation study of main group and transition metal atom cryochemistry. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4217412

The majority of the work described in this thesis is concerned with the isolation of transition metal and main group atoms in dilute reactive ligand matrices. The previously uncharacterised matrix isolated species were characterised using IR, UV-Vis-... Read More about A matrix isolation study of main group and transition metal atom cryochemistry.
