Abstract:: Paper-based assays for HIV diagnosis are cheap, portable, and require little to no skilled training, electricity, or expensive equipment to perform successfully. However, there is a need for tests with lower limits of detection (LOD) for diagnosing infection at the earliest stages. Effective labeling to increase signal-to-noise ratio is critical...

Creator:: Touma, Jad G.
Abstract:: The immobilization of chelators to solid supports has recently gained renewed interest due to the increasing biomedical and environmental applications made possible by these molecules’ ability to bind Fe(III) and other metal ions. The uses of immobilized chelators have expanded to include the treatment of metal overload in serum, the...

Creator:: Davis, William M.
Abstract:: Magnetic materials can be used in modern soft robotics as a method for external stimulus actuation and motion control. By combining aspects of biology and mechanics, devices are fabricated to create a structure capable of complex movement. Applications that these devices are subject to can be broken down into four...

Creator:: Valdivia, Arturo Herrera
Abstract:: Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have recently come under intense investigation as building blocks for van der Waals heterostructure electronics. One of the most promising TMDs is MoS₂, which transitions from an indirect bandgap (1.3 eV) in its bulk state to a direct band gap (1.8 eV) in its single...

Creator:: Bo, Yunfei
Abstract:: Transparent conductive oxides (TCOs), combining the optical transparency and electrical conducting properties, have attracted escalating research interests in recent years due to their potential for various photonic applications. The electrical and optical properties, such as carrier concentration, mobility, will strongly affect the performance of TCO-based photonic devices. In this dissertation,...

Creator:: Ross, Andrew H.
Abstract:: Smoldering can play a dangerous role in the ignition and spread of wildfires. Naturally occurring fuels consist of multiple layers of organic materials with varying particle sizes due to differences in decomposition stages with fuel depth, yet the influence of particle size on burning behavior is poorly understood. Previous research...
