(2009-08-05)Department: PhysicsThe design and characterization of a photovoltaic device employing CdSe nanocrystals sensitized to TiO2 nanotubes is described. The project was divided into three major objectives: (1) fabrication of anodically-oxidized, ...
-
(2013-08-09)Department: Interdisciplinary Materials ScienceAs the limits of silicon based transistors are approached, carbon nano-electronics represents a promising alternative to traditional semiconducting transistors. Silicon-dioxide hinders the electron transport through carbon ...
-
(2010-02-11)Department: Chemical EngineeringCeramic materials in the Al-O-C and Hf-O-C systems were fabricated for electrical or thermal protection applications. AlOxCy films were produced via high-vacuum chemical vapor deposition (CVD) using dimethylaluminum ...
-
(2015-03-26)Department: Chemical EngineeringExtracted from green plants, Photosystem I (PSI) is a nanoscale protein complex that can be incorporated into biohybrid devices to convert solar irradiation into usable power. In previous research, our group has shown that ...
