Fall 2018
Nanomechanical torque magnetometry is emerging as a highly-sensitive method for gauging magneto-statics and magnetic dynamics in mesoscopic and nano-scale magnetic materials. Advances in torque magnetometry are presented here, which were unattainable using previ- ous techniques. Silicon nitride...

Extending electronic devices beyond the limitations of current micro-electronics manufacturing will require detailed knowledge of how to make contacts to semiconductor surfaces. In this work, we investigated several methods by which such connections to silicon surfaces could be achieved. Scanning...

The mass susceptibility and associated Curie temperatures were determined for a series of ternary manganese and zinc ferrite nanoparticles (Mn–Zn ferrite NPs) with ratios of Mn:Zn ranging from 0.67-2.33. Variations in the Mn:Zn ratio of these Mn–Zn ferrite nanoparticles largely unaffected the...

Natural and Drilling induced Fractures in the Grosmont Formation, Alberta: Implications for the State of Stress
DownloadFall 2017
The Devonian Grosmont formation is a huge heavy oil carbonate reservoir located in northeastern Alberta that has an estimated 64.5 x 〖10〗^9 m^3 initial oil in place. This thesis will focus on issues related to the in situ state of stress and the natural fracture statistics within the Grosmont...

This thesis examines 2D Particle-in-Cell (PIC) simulations of a beat-wave interacting with a Near-Critical Density (NCD) plasma to generate an electron beam suitable for radiotherapy. The beat-wave is generated from the co-propagation of an 800nm laser, the primary laser, and a 400nm laser, the...
