Creator:: Shin, Hongsik (Jay)
Abstract:: Presentation for the thesis "Computational Study of the Structure of Indium Alloys at Low Temperatures Using ab initio Methods."
Resource Type:: Presentation

Creator:: Shin, Hongsik (Jay)
Abstract:: Crystals are solid materials with periodic and symmetric molecular patterns. The structure of a crystalline solid determines its properties, making it essential to study its structures. From the principle of minimum energy, a crystal will choose a structure with the lowest free energy F = U – TS. At low...
Resource Type:: Undergraduate Thesis
Full Text:: undergraduate thesis advised by Guenter Schneider, submitted to the Department of Physics, Oregon State

Creator:: Weller, Jesse A.
Abstract:: The ability to focus light through strongly scattering materials is opening up exciting new avenues in many fields, such as optics, computer vision, biology, and medicine, which utilize light delivery and imaging techniques. Efficient, high resolution wavefront shaping and optimization methods are crucial to enabling this new capability. In this...

Creator:: Vielma, Jason Michael
Abstract:: Mixed anion compounds that form ZrCuSiAs-type crystal structures exhibit remarkable properties such as superconductivity at low temperatures, hole conduction with optical transparency in the visible region, and exciton absorption at room temperature. In this thesis, properties of a selected group of materials out of the very large set of mixed...

Full Text:: , and Thermodynamic Properties of Layered Mixed Anion Compounds Abstract approved: Guenter Schneider

Creator:: Park, Seongweon
Abstract:: This thesis presents the results from Monte Carlo calculations on classical vector spins in face-centered-cubic (FCC) lattices. The goal of the study was to understand the effect of interlayer coupling, dilution of magnetic atoms in the lattice, and symmetry-changing strain. Experimental work by T. M. Giebultowicz et al. and J....
