Advanced Highly Permeable and Thermally Stable Polyamide Thin Film Composite and Thin Film Nanocomposite Membranes
DownloadFall 2022
Treating contaminated hot streams is essential to reduce water cooling/re-heating needs and greenhouse gas emission in water reclamation processes, such as the Canadian in-situ oil-sand extraction processes that produce contaminated water at 80-90 C. Membrane separation processes have become one...

Whispering gallery modes in layered microspheres: mode structure, thermal response, and reactive sensing
DownloadFall 2014
This thesis focuses on the physics of the whispering gallery modes (WGMs) of silica microspheres coated with a layer of fluorescent silicon quantum dots (Si QDs). The basic theory associated with these structures was explored, and we showed how the important physical parameters such as the...
