    • Convective Heat Transfer in Water-based Alumina Nanofluids 
      Roberts, N. A. (Nicholas A.) (Vanderbilt University. Graduate School, 2009-03-30)
      Nanofluids are solutions of a small fraction of suspended nanoparticles in a bulk fluid. Nanofluids have shown great promise as heat transfer fluids over typically used bulk fluids and fluids with micron sized particles. ...
    • Directing Heat in Low Symmetry Polaritonic Materials 
      Diaz-Granados, Katja; 0000-0002-4399-0978 (2022-11-19)
      Department: Interdisciplinary Materials Science
      The random thermal motion of charges in a material results in emitted radiation that is spatially and temporally incoherent. The spatial incoherence corresponds to the lack of correlation between the oscillating dipoles ...
    • Gaining Nanophotonic Control through Crystalline Anisotropy 
      Matson, Joseph; 0000-0002-7183-2686 (2023-01-06)
      Department: Interdisciplinary Materials Science
      Infrared (IR) optics form the basis for many important applications, including thermal imaging, long-wave communications, chemical spectroscopy for pharmaceuticals, medical testing, environmental monitoring, automotives, ...
    • Laser-induced single-event effects, total-ionizing-dose effects, and low-frequency noise in advanced FinFETs 
      Li, Kan; 0000-0002-6704-3991 (2022-06-02)
      Department: Interdisciplinary Materials Science
      In this dissertation, radiation effects and low-frequency noise are studied in advanced FinFETs. Firstly, we evaluate the single-event effects on devices with the promising InGaAs channel material and highly-scaled fin ...
    • Multispectral Deep Learning Material Classification for Thermal Imaging 
      Holliger, Noah James; 0000-0003-3217-2897 (2022-09-12)
      Department: Interdisciplinary Materials Science
      A long-standing problem in thermal imaging is the inherent assumption of uniform emissivity across an entire image. Semantic segmentation of the materials in a thermal image can identify the pixel-wise emissivity, thus ...
    • SEMICLASSICAL SIMULATIONS OF HOT ELECTRONS IN GATE-ALL-AROUND SILICON MOSFETS 
      Reaz, Mahmud; 0000-0002-5896-7850 (2021-07-19)
      Department: Interdisciplinary Materials Science
      The Monte Carlo technique is employed for self-consistently solving the Boltzmann-Poisson transport equations with full electronic and phonon energy bands to simulate the non-equilibrium carrier transport in materials and ...
    • Vanderbilt Center for Teaching: Episode 6 - Greg Walker on Teaching with a Tablet PC 
      Bruff, Derek; Walker, Greg; Risen, Michael (Vanderbilt University. Center for Teaching, 2008-10-14)
