Classifying the toxicity of pesticides to honey bees via support vector machines with random walk graph kernels

Creator:: Yang, Ping
Abstract:: Pesticides benefit agriculture by increasing crop yield, quality, and security. However, pesticides may inadvertently harm bees, which are valuable as pollinators. Thus, candidate pesticides in development pipelines must be assessed for toxicity to bees. Leveraging a data set of 382 molecules with toxicity labels from honey bee exposure experiments, we...

Characterization of CoGe Thin Films and Powders

Creator:: Pfau, Andrew James
Abstract:: Cobalt germanides have been widely studied as semiconductor contact materials, but recent theoretical studies suggest that they may also be excellent catalysts for methane steam reforming with stabilities and activities comparable to noble metal catalysts. In order to study the catalytic activity of cobalt germanides, it is critical to first...

Application of Self-Assembled Monolayers to InGaZnO Thin Film Transistors

Creator:: Motley, Joshua R.
Abstract:: Investigations on the application of self-assembled monolayers (SAM) to indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) thin film transistors (TFT) for fabrication and channel modification are presented. The back channel of IGZO thin film transistors can be modified by the absorption of self-assembled monolayers. The electrical properties of the IGZO exposed back...

Ultraviolet photolysis of acetaminophen in a 3D printed continuous flow reactor

Creator:: Goetze, John M.
Abstract:: Finding renewable sources of agricultural fertilizer will be necessary to ensure a stable food supply for future generations. Phosphorus is of particular concern, since mining phosphate rock is the main source and reserves are forecasted to deplete in the next 50 – 200 years. Human urine contains substantial amounts of...

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...
