  • Interlayer Electronic Interactions in Twisted and Stacked Bilayer Graphene

    Creator:
    Patel, Hiral
    Abstract:
    The photophysical properties of two-dimensional (2D) layered van der Waals (vdW) materials, and their heterostructures are manifestly distinct from crystalline bulk materials. Recently, the discovery of new 2D vdW materials and strongly-bound interlayer excitons in these materials has created a new branch in nanoscience. As such, there are a number...

  • A study of actinide de-excitation through neutron emission from the deuteron induced fission of ²³⁸U

    Creator:
    Sprunger, Peter Hayden
    Abstract:
    The process of de-excitation of the actinides is a very important question in both pure and applied science. In this dissertation the process was studied using the neutrons emitted in coincidence with fission induced by the bombardment of ²³⁸U with 14.85 MeV deuterons. Neutrons can be emitted at multiple stages...

  • The role of the vertebral column during jumping in quadrupedal mammals

    Creator:
    Harty, Tyson H.
    Abstract:
    Little, if any, quantifications have been made on the contribution of the vertebral column during jumping in quadrupedal mammals. Previous studies of jumpers have focused on the morphological and physiological specializations of the hindlimbs. In this study, such specialization was measured during the supramaximal jumps of the Pacific jumping mouse...

  • Life history variables of Dicamptodon salamanders

    Creator:
    Wagner, Lisa A.
    Abstract:
    It is good practice to fully understand components of an ecosystem if we hope to preserve its biodiversity. A problem is that we know very little about some organisms and nothing of others. Studies that investigate an organism’s basic biological, ecological and physiological life history variables advance our knowledge of...

  • Patterns and mechanisms : postcopulatory sexual selection and sexual conflict in a novel mating system

    Creator:
    Friesen, Christopher R.
    Abstract:
    Postcopulatory sexual selection—sperm competition and cryptic female choice—has become a major area of research over the past 40 years. Within this field there are many outstanding questions at every level of analysis, from proximate to ultimate. The fitness consequences for both sexes in the period after copulation and before fertilization...
