  • Study of Organic Semiconductors Using Time-Resolved Charge Measurements at the Microscale

    Creator:
    Wallace, Richard
    Abstract:
    Understanding charge transfer in organic semiconductors is important for developing devices like organic light emitting diodes and flexible electronics. Optical tweezers have been used in many disciplines for trapping, manipulating, and analyzing microscopic objects such as microspheres, micro-organisms, and other colloidal particles. Using optical tweezers, studies have measured the average...

  • Simulating dynein’s powerstroke using Brownian dynamics

    Creator:
    Capek, Elliott
    Abstract:
    Dynein is a motor protein which transports cargo along tracks inside the cell. Like related motor proteins kinesin and myosin, dynein uses cellular energy to take steps with its two foot domains. Unlike kinesin or myosin, dynein’s stepping pattern is highly varied: it can take steps between zero and 60nm...
