  • Novel Interfacial Syntheses of Covalent Organic Frameworks

    Creator:
    Liu, Ziyan
    Abstract:
    Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are an emerging type of microporous crystalline polymers connected by organic units via strong covalent bonds. Due to the well-defined crystalline structure and excellent chemical and thermal stabilities, COF materials are being considered as promising candidates in a variety of applications, such as gas adsorption, catalysis...

  • Synthesis, surface treatment, and characterization of copper indium sulfide quantum dots

    Creator:
    Alemu, Yagenetfere A.
    Abstract:
    The need for less toxic quantum dots (QDs) has led to a significant number of investigations related to copper indium sulfide (CIS) QDs. Lower toxicity and broad band absorbance width makes CIS QDs appealing for light emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, sensors, bio-imaging, solar cells, and computing. The optical and electronic...

  • Spray drying for erythrocyte preservation at room temperature

    Creator:
    Leu, Hsuan-Yu
    Abstract:
    Spray drying has been widely used in food science for long-term storage of products such as powdered milk, and it has recently been used for preservation of more temperature sensitive products such as human blood plasma and single-cell organisms. However, there are no previous reports of successful spray drying of...

  • Models and Modeling in Capstone Physical and Virtual Laboratory Projects

    Creator:
    Nefcy, Erick J.
    Abstract:
    The research presented in this dissertation focuses on the model generation and modeling processes of student teams that participate in capstone, undergraduate engineering physical and virtual laboratory projects. The Heat Exchange Laboratory Project, the Ion Exchange Laboratory Project, and the Virtual Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) Laboratory Project provide the context...
