Biomolecule detection by amplified photoluminescence of germanium doped diatom biosilica

Creator:

Gale, Debra K.

Abstract:

There is significant interest in the fabrication of nano- and micro-structured silica with spatially ordered features, which exhibit enhanced optoelectronic properties with application to the next generation of display devices, semiconductors, and sensors. Currents methods of fabrication employ top down processes which use extremes of temperature, pressure, and power. There...

Industrially-situated project-based learning : a study of feedback and diffusion

Creator:

Gilbuena, Debra M.

Abstract:

The Virtual Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) Process Development Project provides the context for the two areas of the research presented in this dissertation. The first area, generally referred to as feedback in this dissertation, focuses on student learning and the interactions of students and instructors that take place in the...

Two-stage photobioreactor cultivation for enhancing lipid production from diatom cells by controlled silicon limitation

Creator:

Rosenberger, Jennifer L.

Abstract:

There is significant interest in utilizing microalgae as a source for biofuels. Diatoms are a class of single-celled microalgae which make silica cell walls and require dissolved silicon as a substrate for cell division. Manipulation of soluble silicon delivery to the culture offers a route to control cell cycle and...
