Title: Blinking Correlation in Nanocrystal Quantum Dots Probed with Novel Laser Scanning Confocal Microscopy Methods
Author: Hefti, Ryan
Date Created: 2013
Subjects--Topical: Nanoscience, Physics
Description: Semiconductor quantum dots have a vast array of applications: as fluorescent labels in biological systems, as physical or chemical sensors, as components in photovoltaic technology, and in display devices. An attribute of nearly every quantum dot ...

Title: EFFECTS OF GRAIN SIZE ON THE QUASI-STATIC MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF ULTRAFINE-GRAINED AND NANOCRYSTALLINE TANTALUM
Author: Ligda, Jonathan
Date Created: 2013
Subjects--Topical: Materials science, Nanoscience
Description: The increase in strength due to the Hall-Petch effect, reduced strain hardening capacity, a reduced ductility, and changes in deformation mechanisms are all effects of reducing grain size (d) into the ultrafine-grained (UFG, 100 5.3 mm show a dra...

Title: Exploring The Self Assembly of Cadmium Selenide Nanoparticles In Langmuir Films
Author: Giles, Alexander
Date Created: 2013
Subjects--Topical: Materials science, Nanoscience, Physics
Description: The assembly of semiconductor nanocrystals into close packed films suitable for device engineering is critical to the development of next generation electronic and optoelectronic devices. These nanocrystals have nanometer dimensions and can be pre...

Title: PLASMONIC NANOLITHOGRAPHY MACHINE (PLM)
Author: Saad, Mohamed
Date Created: 2013
Subjects--Topical: Mechanical engineering
Description: The Plasmonic Nanolithography Machine (PLM) is a prototype that adopts near field maskless plasmonic nanolithography to achieve 45 nm line widths at 45 nm half pitch. A plasmonic lens floating on a hydrodynamic air bearing rides on a disc with abo...
