Spring 2012
Gold and silver dressing alloys were created by DC magnetron sputtering and compared with pure silver nanocrystalline dressings using conventional biological and physical characterization techniques. While the gold/silver dressings were weaker antimicrobials than the pure silver nanocrystalline...

Conductive Atomic Force Microscopy Study of Electron Transport Through Diazonium Derived Films and Mixed – Mode Bonded Layers on Gold and Carbon Surfaces
DownloadSpring 2012
For Molecular Electronics to become a viable replacement or complitment to current elec- tronic devices a fundamental understanding of device operation and functionality is needed. This work explores electron transport through diazonium derived molecular junctions via conductive atomic force...

Development and application of the Re-Os isotope system to sediment-hosted Zn-Pb ores and sedimentary pore waters
DownloadFall 2018
The rhenium-osmium (Re-Os) isotopic system is used to determine the age of, and trace the origins of, minerals and fluids found within the Earth's crust. This thesis focuses on application of Re-Os geochronology and isotope systematics to sulphide minerals from carbonate-hosted Zn-Pb ore...

Diagenetic Controls on Hydrothermal Fluid Flow in the Osiris, Isis, and Isis East Carlin-Type Gold Showings, Nadaleen Trend, Yukon
DownloadFall 2015
Following ATAC Resources Ltd.’s 2010 discovery of the gold prospects in the Nadaleen Trend (Central Yukon), company geologists and consultants determined that Precambrian carbonate rocks within the trend contain large endowments of gold located in the hinges of anticlines and fault zones. ...

Geochemical Characterization and Fluid History of the Tiger Zone; a Tertiary Distal Carbonate-Replacement Intrusion-Related Gold Deposit, Central Yukon
DownloadSpring 2013
A paragenetic and geochemical study has resulted in the classification of the Tiger zone as a Tertiary-aged intrusion-related gold deposit. Gold-bearing mineralization occurs in two geochemically and temporally distinct assemblages. The first assemblage contains carbonate-replacement,...

Implications of in situ zircon U-Pb, Lu-Hf, oxygen-isotope, and trace element geochemistry on the petrogenetic history of the northern Hogem batholith in the Quesnel terrane, north-central British Columbia, Canadian Cordillera
DownloadSpring 2022
The Cordilleran orogen of western Canada is a type example of accretionary tectonism and thus an ideal location to study continental growth by oceanic and continental arc magmatism and terrane accretion. Cordilleran Intermontane terranes are interpreted as accreted oceanic arcs that contributed...

Indicators of gold mineralization in the Yellowknife greenstone belt: a lithogeochemistry and mineralogy study
DownloadSpring 2021
Geochemical signatures within an economic deposit are an important indicator used in the exploration of high-grade mineralization. In this study, we aim to identify elements that can act as geochemical indicators for orogenic gold within the Yellowknife greenstone belt that allow the...

Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) microgel-based etalons and etalon arrays for determining the molecular weight of polymers in solution
Download2013
Serpe, Michael J., Islam, Molla R.
Positively and/or negatively charged poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)-based microgels were deposited on a single substrate and isolated regions of Au overlayers were deposited on top of the microgels. Each spatially isolated Au overlayer region had a different thickness to make an etalon array. We...

Fall 2009
This thesis is concerned with applications of modern solid-state NMR spectroscopy. Investigations of three quite different types are undertaken, each of which attempt to advance knowledge in the fields of chemistry and NMR. The goal of each project is to obtain insight into the effects of...
