Synthesis, Surface Functionalization of Germanium Nanoparticles, and Their Application in Polymer Hybrid Solar Cells
DownloadSpring 2020
Germanium nanoparticles (GeNPs) have immense potential in various applications, such as opto-electronics, batteries, bioimaging, etc. Germanium has a small band gap (0.67 eV in bulk), large exciton Bohr radius (~24 nm), high absorption coefficient (ca. 2.0 × 105 cm 1 at 2 eV), and high carrier...

The Influence of Specific Ions and System Architecture on the Recognition and Reactivity of Two Charged Materials: DNA-Modified Gold Nanoparticle Aggregates and Planar Silica
DownloadFall 2014
DNA functionalized gold nanoparticles (GNP–DNA) offer simple colorimetric nucleic acid sensing with high selectivity and sensitivity. Consequently, they are promising in genetic profiling, disease diagnostics, and forensic applications. In the presence of a target nucleic acid, GNP–DNA forms...

The Nuclear Future and Politics in the Postwar Asian Screens: A Comparative Close Analysis of Four Chinese and Japanese SF Films from 1954 to 1963
DownloadSpring 2024
In this thesis, I undertake a comparative analysis of the portrayal of the power of the nuclear and its envisioned future in four seminal Chinese and Japanese Science Fiction films from 1954 to 1963. These include Shisanling shuiku changxiangqu 十三陵水库畅想曲 (Ballad of the Ming Tombs Reservoir, d. Jin...
