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.

High Performance Germanium-based Anode Materials for Lithium-ion and Sodium-ion Rechargeable Batteries
DownloadFall 2014
In this thesis the electrochemical performance of germanium nanowires (GeNWs) as anode for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and tin-germanium-antimony (Sn-Ge-Sb) thin films as anode for sodium-ion batteries (NIBs) have been investigated. Scientific literature shows a substantial study-to-study...

Nanoscale resonators fabricated from metallic alloys, and modeling and simulation of polycrystalline thin film growth
DownloadSpring 2010
Part I - We have designed a binary metallic alloy for nanoscale resonator applications. We used magnetron sputtering to deposit films with different stoichiometries of aluminum and molybdenum and then characterized the microstructure and physical properties of each film. A structure zone map is...
