This decommissioned ERA site remains active temporarily to support our final migration steps to https://ualberta.scholaris.ca, ERA's new home. All new collections and items, including Spring 2025 theses, are at that site. For assistance, please contact erahelp@ualberta.ca.
Theses and Dissertations
This collection contains theses and dissertations of graduate students of the University of Alberta. The collection contains a very large number of theses electronically available that were granted from 1947 to 2009, 90% of theses granted from 2009-2014, and 100% of theses granted from April 2014 to the present (as long as the theses are not under temporary embargo by agreement with the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies). IMPORTANT NOTE: To conduct a comprehensive search of all UofA theses granted and in University of Alberta Libraries collections, search the library catalogue at www.library.ualberta.ca - you may search by Author, Title, Keyword, or search by Department.
To retrieve all theses and dissertations associated with a specific department from the library catalogue, choose 'Advanced' and keyword search "university of alberta dept of english" OR "university of alberta department of english" (for example). Past graduates who wish to have their thesis or dissertation added to this collection can contact us at erahelp@ualberta.ca.

Spring 2017
With the rapid development of electrified transportation, electrochemical energy storage devices will be more important than they have ever been in human history. Lithium-ion batteries are considered as the most energy efficient candidates, due to their relatively long cycle life. However, their...

Fall 2018
Rechargeable zinc-air (Zn-air) batteries have gained renewed interest among the various technologies available with their high theoretical energy density and low cost. However, large-scale industrial deployment of Zn-air batteries is limited by several issues; the most concerning of these are low...

Electrodeposition of iron-cobalt alloys from a dibasic ammonium citrate stabilized plating solution
DownloadFall 2009
Iron-cobalt alloys have been extensively studied as potential hard disk drive write head materials due to their potentially high saturation flux densities (~2.4T), low coercivities and ease of deposition. Iron-cobalt plating solutions have, however, been shown to have stability issues,...

Spring 2020
With growing concerns regarding climate change, researchers are focusing on developing energy storage devices to store renewable energy for later use. Currently, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) dominate the energy storage market, from portable electronics and emerging electric vehicles to grid...

Fall 2015
Eutectic and near-eutectic tin (Sn) solder alloys have been indispensable when interconnecting and packaging electronic devices in the assembly of modern electronic circuits. Legislation has necessitated the implementation of lead (Pb)-free solder alternatives to replace near-eutectic Sn-Pb...

Fabrication, characterization and application of functional coatings on nickel foam to resist hydrogen sulfide corrosion and metal dusting at high temperature
DownloadFall 2011
Electrodeposition and co-electrodeposition methods were used to prepare: (1) copper coated nickel foam; (2) copper-ceria coated nickel foam. Both of these coatings formed a copper-nickel alloy after heat treatment in reducing atmosphere. These coatings have low, stable resistance when exposed to...

Fall 2019
From the fabrication perspective, zinc oxide (ZnO) offers the possibility of thin film growth through the use of low-cost solution techniques. The solution-processed ZnO films, usually of polycrystalline formation, are suitable for use in field-effect transistors and in such applications as...

Spring 2015
The processes of Ni/Cu electro-co-deposition and pure nickel electroplating in magnetic field have been investigated. Various techniques such as scanning electron microscope (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), and electrochemical characterization were ...
