Terahertz imaging and spectroscopy of carbon-based and semiconductor nanostructures

Creator:: Tomaino, Joseph L.
Abstract:: This thesis will cover work that I have completed relating to the field of terahertz (THz) science. My work has consisted of generating tunable, narrowband THz pulses in a table-top optical setup and using both narrow- and broadband THz pulses to study various material systems. Broadband THz pulses were used...

Silicic acid and oxidizable carbon movement in a Walla Walla silt loam as related to long-term residue and nitrogen applications

Creator:: Douglas, Clyde Lee
Abstract:: Intensive cultivation of Walla Walla silt loams (coarse silty, mixed, mesic, typic Haploxeroll) in eastern Oregon and Washington during the past 50 years, has decreased internal soil drainage in the 15 to 40 cm layer. However, no measurements have been made to determine the causes and corrective management for this...
