Effects of In-Situ Temperature Control on the Nanostructure of Glancing Angle Deposition Thin Films
DownloadFall 2013
Glancing angle deposition (GLAD) is a thin film deposition technique that utilizes oblique vapour incidence and substrate rotation to grow various nanocolumn structures. The growth of these structures is heavily influenced by the substrate temperature during deposition. Therefore, in-situ...

Embedded Categories: Three Studies on the Institutional Shaping of Categories and Category Effects
DownloadSpring 2012
Over the past fifteen years, a rich program of research has emerged among scholars interested in the role of categories within fields and industries. In this context, studies have shown that categories shape organizational and market processes by grouping firms and products in ways that convey...

On a perfect hydrogen-terminated Si(100)-2x1 surface, each surface silicon atom is capped with exactly one atom of hydrogen. When one of the capping hydrogen atoms is removed, the now unsatisfied orbital of the underlying silicon atom is exposed at that site. This site is better known as a...

This work investigates the use of nanoimprint lithography for creating nanoscale resonator devices for applications in mass sensing. A bilayer resist consisting of PMMA 495/LOR 3A allowed the ideal imprint yield for resonators with widths ranging from 300 nm down to 120 nm. Resonators with...

Contrairement à ce que le sous-titre pourrait laisser croire, Reticulations n’est ni un livre sur Jean-Luc Nancy ni un livre sur les réseaux si, du moins, on entend par là les réseaux de transport ou de télécommunication omniprésents dans notre vie moderne. Le livre de Philip Armstrong ne vise...

Fundamentals of Film Growth by Glancing Angle Deposition for Inorganic and Inorganic/Liquid Crystal Hybrid Optical Systems
DownloadFall 2011
This thesis investigates two facets of thin film growth via glancing angle deposition. The first half of the work focuses on the fundamentals of film growth with a focus on uniformity and optical design. This portion of the thesis addresses important engineering questions that are relevant to...
