  • Sputter Deposition and Characterization of Transparent Conductive Oxide Thin Films and Applications in Photonics

    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,...

  • Quantum dot plasmon coupling : Fundamental study and applications

    Creator:
    Kannegulla, Akash
    Abstract:
    The dissertation focuses on the engineering of light-matter interaction using plasmonic nanoparticles and metamaterials to achieve enhanced luminescence and based on which to improve the performance of biosensing and light-emitting technologies. We designed and fabricated a spectrum of nanostructures to exhibit particular dispersion relations capable of controlling the spontaneous emission...

  • Large-Area Nanoplasmonic Structures for Enhanced Fluorescence-Based Biosensing

    Creator:
    Wang, Yi-Chieh
    Abstract:
    An innovative silver nano-dimple arrays (Ag DAs)-integrated microfluidic device was developed to achieve highly sensitive fluorescence-based nucleic acid detection. The Ag DAs were utilized to produce surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for strong fluorescence enhancement. We systematically investigated the plasmon-enhanced fluorescence by controlling the nanostructure dimension of the Ag DA substrate....

  • Leveraging transformer encoder output for effective token summary in simultaneous translation

    Creator:
    Raffel, Matthew
    Abstract:
    Simultaneous speech-to-text translation remains a difficult yet important problem for modern machine learning models whereby a text translation is generated concurrently with receiving partial speech inputs. One state-of-the-art simultaneous speech-to-text model is the augmented memory transformer whose encoder breaks a speech input into fixed-size overlapping segments composed of left, right,...

  • Point-of-care and wearable sensors for non-invasive stress hormone detection with molecularly imprinted techniques

    Creator:
    Yeasmin, Sanjida
    Abstract:
    Rapid and sensitive detection of stress hormones, such as cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), can benefit the diagnosis of diseases related to adrenal gland disorders, post-traumatic stress disorders, chronic fatigue syndrome, and more. Stress hormones fluctuate in a circadian rhythm, the highest in the early morning and the lowest at night;...
