Designing Acrylic Block Copolymers with Multiple Hydrogen Bonding or Multiple Ionic Bonding
The dynamic characteristics of hydrogen and ionic bonding contributes to the reversible properties of acrylic polymers, opening new avenues for designing materials with mechanical strength and processability. These non-covalent interactions function as physical crosslinks, which provide enhanced …

Use of Multiple Representations to Explore Students’ Understandings of Covalent and Ionic Bonding as Measured by the Bonding Representations Inventory
The abstract nature of bonding poses several challenges as some students struggle to identify the ionic and covalent nature of bonds within a variety of compounds. The topic is formally introduced in both middle school and secondary education (grades 6-12) and reintroduced in the undergraduate …

First Principle Modeling of Hybrid Halide Perovskites for Optoelectronic Applications
… polaronic properties, as these materials exhibit ionic bonding and therefore are predicted to exhibit strong electron-phonon coupling. Relativistic effects are studied using spin orbit coupling (SOC) corrections to account for large atoms like Pb and I. The Rashba effect is seen when SOC …

First-Principles Study of Band Alignment and Electronic Structure at Metal/Oxide Interfaces: An Investigation of Dielectric Breakdown
… at metal/oxide interfaces. It is shown that the bonding chemistry at metal/oxide interfaces, which is mainly ionic bond, polarizes the interface. It results in many interface effects such as the interface dipole, built-in voltage, band bending, etc. Charge density analysis also indicates that the …
