Spring 2014
This thesis presents the realization and characterization of passive and active photonic and nanoplasmonic waveguides for applications in all-optical circuitry. The key results focus on generating visible light in nanoscale silicon waveguides through nonlinear interactions and demonstrating...

Percutaneous procedures, those involving the insertion of needles into tissue, encompass a wide array of clinical applications and are used in both therapeutic and diagnostic modalities. In either of these modalities, the needle must be steered accurately towards a target location to maximize the...

Glancing angle deposition (GLAD) was used to fabricate nanostructured TiO$_2$ capacitive relative humidity (RH) sensors. These sensors exhibit sub-second response times and large sensitivities, but are susceptible to ageing. Ultraviolet (UV) treatment of the sensors has been found to reverse...
