  • Random dopants and low-frequency noise reduction in deep-submicron MOSFET technology

    Creator:
    Miller, Drake A.
    Abstract:
    The future of mixed-signal, memory, and microprocessor technologies are dependent on ever increasing analog and digital integration, higher cell densities, and demand for more processing power. As a result MOSFET device dimensions continue to shrink to meet these demands. A side effect of device scaling is increased variability at each...

  • Vitamin E Protects Developmental Gene Expression and Metabolic Networks in Zebrafish Embryos

    Creator:
    Head, Brian A.
    Abstract:
    Vitamin E (VitE) is necessary for vertebrate embryonic development. VitE prevents lipid peroxidation (LPO), which requires detoxification by cellular antioxidant systems subsequently involving reducing power derived from energy metabolism. Thus, VitE protects metabolic networks in the developing embryo and the integrated gene expression networks compensating for and impaired by LPO-induced...

  • Unearthing the Cretaceous Diversification of Cornales

    Creator:
    Atkinson, Brian A.
    Abstract:
    The order Cornales (dogwoods) is the earliest diverging lineage within the most diverse group of flowering plants, the asterids (>80,000 species). Although molecular phylogenetics have significantly improved our understanding of cornalean systematics, early phylogenetic relationships remain uncertain due to an initial rapid radiation. The fossil record of Cornales is extensive...

  • The role of iron-oxides in U(VI) adsorption and the kinetics of contaminant organic reduction

    Creator:
    Logue, Brian A.
    Abstract:
    Contaminant transport in ground water is an important environmental process that affects a host of natural systems. Transport of contaminants is affected by many processes, including aqueous complexation, adsorption, and redox reactions. One of the most important components of an aquifer that controls transport is iron-oxide. In this study, the...
