Spring 2024
Luminescent silicon quantum dots (SiQDs) are attractive nanoparticles due to the utilization of non-toxic and earth-abundant silicon. Despite these advantages, challenges in optimizing their optical properties, particularly broad luminescence bandwidths and photostability, persist. This thesis...

Fall 2024
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) are used in catalysis, drug delivery, controlled drug release, imaging and biosensing applications due to their stability, high pore volumes, large surface area and non-toxicity. Although MSNPs have many advantages in biological applications, they lack...
