Using the Langevin Equation to Verify a Single-Particle Brownian Motion Simulation

Creator:

Snyder, Brendan

Abstract:

Brownian motion is the movement of a particle in a fluid resulting from collisions with surrounding molecules. It has modern applications in simulating fluid dynamics and the motion of proteins in biophysics. Brownian motion simulations generally evolve the initial state by applying Newton’s second law to every particle. These simulations...

Anti-Reflective Films: Spectroscopy and Ellipsometry of Porous Films

Creator:

Ramm, Joshua J.

Abstract:

The relationship between the index of refraction and the porosity of a material is that the index decreases with respect to the porosity. This property can be used to change the index of refraction of films which allows control of the reflection of the material. This is important because being...
