  • Theoretical Prediction of Disrupted Min Oscillation in Flattened Escherichia coli

    Creator:
    Schulte, Jeff B., Zeto, Rene W., and Roundy, David
    Abstract:
    The dynamics of the Min-protein system help Escherichia coli regulate the process of cell division by identifying the center of the cell. While this system exhibits robust bipolar oscillations in wild-type cell shapes, recent experiments have shown that when the cells are mechanically deformed into wide, flattened out, irregular shapes,...

  • Detection of exciton polaritons in organic thin film TES-ADT

    Creator:
    Haas, David P.
    Abstract:
    Exciton polaritons are quasiparticles composed of a quantum superposition of matter and light states that arises from the coupling of a standing wave photon and an exciton. This research has two primary objectives: to design and fabricate a Fabry-Perot microcavity system in which to produce exciton polaritons; and to show...

  • A Study of Charging Behaviors in Organic Semiconductors using Optical Trapping

    Creator:
    Founds, Graham M.
    Abstract:
    We measure the charging and discharging of two organic materials, PCBM and ADT-TES-F. These materials are studied through the noncontact method of particle trapping known as Optical Tweezers, where an IR laser is used to constrain the motion of a coated or noncoated silica sphere while its positional data is...

  • Exploiting Diffraction Orders from a Phase Limited SLM to Remove and Model Zernike Aberrations

    Creator:
    Goschie, Aaron J.
    Abstract:
    Using a plastic bottle, we explore the capabilities of a reflective phase-only Spatial Light Modulator (SLM) in removing wavefront aberrations using a Zernike polynomial phase mask, with the modulators phase depth limited to 0.8π radians. Wavefront aberrations, which can be modeled with Zernike polynomials, distort image transmission through various optical...

  • Chiral Topological Defects in Nematic Liquid Crystals and Classical Field Theories

    Creator:
    Douglas, Brennan
    Abstract:
    A great variety of topologically protected defects exist in ordinary and exotic states of matter. Some of them are promising candidates for technological applications such as magnetic memory or quantum computers. Others possess some properties of elementary particles that could lead to potential applications in quantum fields. Nematic liquid crystals...
