Generating and using terahertz radiation to explore carrier dynamics of semiconductor and metal nanostructures

Creator:: Jameson, Andrew D.
Abstract:: In this thesis, I present studies in the field of terahertz (THz) spectroscopy. These studies are divided into three areas: Development of a narrowband THz source, the study of carrier transport in metal thin films, and the exploration of coherent dynamics of quasi-particles in semiconductor nanostructures with both broadband and...

Transcriptional regulation of the human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide gene

Creator:: Guo, Chunxiao
Abstract:: Human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP/LL-37) is a cationic antimicrobial peptide that is widely expressed by myeloid and epithelial cells at the human-environment interface. It possesses broad spectrum antimicrobial capacity against bacteria, fungi and viruses. In addition to its direct antimicrobial activity, CAMP/LL-37 also attracts and recruits monocytes, neutrophils and other...

Experimental Investigation of the Transition to Natural Convection in HTGR Applications using the Oregon State SFSETF

Creator:: Fishler, Joshua D.
Abstract:: High Temperature Gas Reactors (HTGRs) are positioned to disrupt local and global markets via their unique ability to produce carbon-free process heat, high efficiency power generation, and passively safe operational features. However, significant impediments still exist to delay deployment of this particular technology, including a lack of experimental data, verified...

The effect of dietary compounds on human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide gene expression mediated through farnesoid X receptor and its potential role in gastrointestinal health

Creator:: Campbell, Yan
Abstract:: The human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP) is a broad spectrum microbicidal agent and modulator of both the innate and adaptive immune system. It is induced by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)₂D₃) through activation of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and primary bile salts through activation of the xenobiotic nuclear receptor farnesoid X...

Targeted development of antivirals against influenza A and respiratory syncytial virus

Creator:: Lupfer, Christopher
Abstract:: Influenza A and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) are both enveloped, negative strand RNA viruses which infect the respiratory mucosa of animals and humans. Despite decades of research and development of antivirals and vaccines, both of these viruses continue to be a major health concern throughout the world. The focus of...

Multi-objective Optimization of Reservoir Operation Under Uncertainty with Robust and Flexible Decision Variables

Creator:: Hosseini, Parnian
Abstract:: Optimization of reservoir operation is involves various competing objectives for a scarce resource (water). To find the optimal operation of reservoirs, it is essential to consider multiple objectives simultaneously. There are various sources of uncertainty associated with the reservoir operation problem that should be considered as well. The overarching goal...

Studies toward the total synthesis of alkaloids : nagelamide A and D, agelastatin D, dragmacidin A-C, salacin and almazoles

Creator:: Tonsiengsom, Sorasaree
Abstract:: Studies toward the total syntheses of highly potent cytotoxic alkaloids including the bromopyrrole alkaloids and indole alkaloids were conducted and are described. Studies carried out in the course of this dissertation consist of five total syntheses of natural products that include bromopyrrole alkaloids nagelamide A, D and agelastatin D as...

The asymmetric binding of Actinomycin D to DNA hexamers

Creator:: Ivancic, Monika
Abstract:: The solution structure determination of DNA molecules has been an important part of structural biology. NMR solution structures are a complement to structures solved via X-ray crystallography; the two methods are the only ways of obtaining three dimensional coordinates of macromolecules. Because of the nature of the molecule, the solution...

Design of a 14-bit continuous-time Delta-Sigma A/D modulator with 2.5MHz signal bandwidth

Creator:: Li, Zhimin
Abstract:: In recent years, there has been growing interest in both industry and academia to use continuous-time (CT) Δ-Σ A/D converters for wideband wireless and wireline communication applications. So far no reported CT Δ-Σ A/D modulator achieves 14-bit or higher dynamic range (DR) with more than 2MHz signal bandwidth (equivalently 4MS/s)....
