Effects of Graphene in High-Density Polyethylene Microfibers
(2022-12-20)
High-Density Polyethylene uniquely can induce banded spherulites as it is crystallized from its melt. We studied the effects of graphene in the crystallography of banded HDPE by examining parameters such as the extent of ...
SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF COBALT-BASED MAGNETIC NANOSTRUCTURES
(2020-08-18)
Co is an attractive element in the development of nanostructured magnetic materials due to its relatively high moment (1.72-1.75 µB) and strong exchange and spin-orbit interactions, and many of these materials have potential ...
Study on Forming DNA-Mediated Nanoparticle Conjugates: Toward Detection of COVID-19
(2021-12-21)
The objective of this thesis is to establish a rapid, robust, and reproducible procedure to controllably assemble DNA-functionalized Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) into satellite-shaped nanostructures using sequence-specific DNA ...
CHARACTERIZATION OF ASPHALT/RECYCLED PLASTIC BLENDS MODIFIED BY EXFOLIATED CLAY NANOPLATELETS
(2021-05-09)
There is a renewed interest from federal and state transportation agencies as well as the asphalt industry in developing successful utilization of recycled plastics in asphalt pavements. By incorporating a third material ...
Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation of Titanium Under Constant Applied Voltage
(2020-06-08)
Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) is a method capable of applying nonmetallic coatings to metallic substrates submerged in electrolyte via a plasma development under high voltage. The PEO technique is particularly useful ...
Synthesis of nickel-titanium intermetallic surface coatings via electrolytic plasma processing
(2020-05-28)
Electrolytic plasma processing (EPP) is an environmentally friendly surface cleaning
and deposition technique. Dependant on circuit polarity, anionic or cationic species can
be deposited from an aqueous electrolyte bridge, ...
Study Of New Transistor Architecture With Energy Filtering
(2020-08-24)
The thermodynamic limit of the subthreshold slope to 60mV/decade at 300K forces MOSFET devices to use high supply voltages (> 0.5V) and therefore dissipate a lot of energy. This physical limitation of transistors is a ...
STUDY OF INTERDIFFUSION AND GROWTH OF INTERMETALLIC COMPOUNDS IN BIMETALLIC LAYERS OF ALPHA BRASS AND Al-Mg ALLOY
(2020-08-17)
This work aims to study the formation of Inter Metallic Compounds (IMC’s) and their growth rate in Brass and Al-Mg alloy. This diffusion couple consists of four elements Aluminum, Copper, Zinc and Magnesium. Aluminum and ...
A 3D SERS DEVICE FOR HIGHLY SENSITIVE DETECTION OF ORGANIC CHEMICALS IN LIQUID
(2021-05-26)
Detection of organic chemicals in liquid medium have been gaining utmost attention in recent times. Real time detection and monitoring of a variety of environmental pollutants, explosive materials, chemical agents, and ...
SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION AND TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF Mo-DLC
(2021-12-20)
Diamond like carbon (DLC) films have been extensively used in a wide range of applications over the last decade due to their excellent mechanical and tribological properties. Metallic elements are used to dope DLC films ...
