Fall 2014
Rosette Nanotubes (RNTs) are a class of self-assembled organic nanomaterials generated through the spontaneous hierarchical organization of guanine-cytosine (G˄C) bases with a built-in self-assembling ability. Driven by non-covalent intermolecular forces in solution, G˄C bases self-assemble into...

Aquatic nanotoxicity testing: Insights at the biochemical, cellular, and whole animal levels
DownloadFall 2013
Aquatic organisms are susceptible to waterborne nanoparticles and there is only limited understanding of the mechanisms by which these emerging contaminants affect biological processes. The unique properties of nanomaterials necessitate evaluation of standard toxicity testing techniques to...

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...

Fall 2010
This thesis describes the fabrication and characterization of integrated hollow Bragg waveguides fabricated by controlled thin film buckling. Hollow waveguides based on two different set of materials were studied. In the first case, thermal tuning of air-core dimensions was studied using...

Atomic Force Microscopy Characterization of Hydrogen Terminated Silicon (100) 2x1 Reconstruction
DownloadFall 2015
Non-contact Atomic Force Microscopy (NC-AFM) is a Scanning Probe Microscopy tool offering unique non-perturbative analysis of surfaces and adsorbates at the atomic scale. AFM precisely oscillates a sharp tip above a sample. By monitoring the shift in resonance frequency of a quartz tuning fork...

Fall 2017
Despite offering advantages such as physical flexibility and cost-effectiveness, thin-film optoelectronic devices are held back by their lackluster efficiency in competition with their traditional counterparts. Since one major factor in low performance of these devices is known to be their...
