Analysis of Plasmons Sustained on the Surface of Graphene
Lyon, Keenan (University of Waterloo, 2014-08-11)This thesis is broken into two parts, both dealing with the role of two-dimensional graphene in electronic and optical applications. The first section develops a phenomenological relationship for the polarizability of the ... -
From Fundamentals to Spectroscopic Applications of Density Functional Theory
Lyon, Keenan (University of Waterloo, 2020-05-29)Density functional theory (DFT) and its time-dependent counterpart (TDDFT) are crucial tools in material discovery, drug design, biochemistry, catalysis, and nanoscience. However, despite its exact theoretical basis, ...
