A Fabrication Process and Analysis of ZnO-ZnS-Sb₂S3₃ Thin Film Solar Cells

Creator:: Catherall, David
Abstract:: The purpose of this research is to provide a simple fabrication method for zinc oxide and antimony sulfide based thin film solar cells. Both a ZnO nanorod electron conducting structure and a stibnite absorber show promise in a solar cell. Initial attempts at using only ZnO and Sb2S3, however, resulted...

Repetitive DNA profiles in Bembidion (Coleoptera : Carabidae) show variation in genomic architecture within and between closely related species

Creator:: Barton, Lindsey M.
Abstract:: The ribosomal cistron (rDNA cistron) is a tandemly repeated region in the genome that encodes for the necessary subunits to form ribosomes, complex molecules responsible for the assembly of amino acids into proteins. They are found within all cellular organisms, and evolve at relatively constant rates, making them ideal for...

The possibility of international agreements concerning genetically modified organisms in the European Union

Creator:: Fairbrother, Jennifer R.
Abstract:: As genetically modified products come under greater production, tensions surrounding the potential benefits and harms of the technology have appeared in divergent policy between the European Union (EU) and certain member states. The purpose of this thesis is to consider whether some type of international law, also called an environmental...

Exploring the toxigenicity and genetic similarity of Detroit Reservoir’s recurring cyanobacterial bloom in 2017 and 2018

Creator:: Godbole, Tejas R.
Abstract:: In order to understand the ability of Detroit Reservoir’s recurring cyanobacterial bloom to produce toxins, and determine the genetic similarity of the bloom from year to year, environmental samples were taken from the Detroit Reservoir bloom biomass in the summers of 2017 and 2018. DNA from these samples was sequenced,...

Quantification of C60 Particle Characteristics in Environmentally Relevant Aqueous Systems

Creator:: Adlong, Michelle R.
Abstract:: The production of the fullerene C60 and its emerging applications in consumer products imply its ultimate release to the environment. Due to the molecule’s relative novelty, the aqueous characteristics of C60 have not been fully assessed, though it may potentially harm human or ecological health. C60 is highly insoluble in...

When Normal Distributions Fail: An Application of Feature Engineering to YouTube Videos

Creator:: Replinger, Ian R.
Abstract:: YouTube has turned creating, watching, and interacting with videos into a mainstream activity and has substantial impact on modern society as the most popular video sharing site in the world. However, there is a lack of published research using statistically designed experiments which can aid content creators in making and...

Tabletop fusion reactors : construction and testing of a demonstration inertial electrostatic confinement fusor

Creator:: Holler, Logan R.
Abstract:: Nuclear fusion reactors comprise a significant field of study due to their potential to provide a limitless, clean, and sustainable source of energy. The inertial electrostatic confinement fusor is a type of fusion-generating device that accelerates deuterium gas to the conditions required for fusion. The goal of this research was...

The Effect of Zinc Status and Age on Liver Health in Mice

Creator:: Braun, Kendra N.
Abstract:: Age-related diseases have been associated with chronic inflammation and impaired immune response, one of the hallmarks of aging. Aging individuals also have a higher susceptibility to zinc deficiency. The effects of zinc deficiency share many commonalities with the effects of aging on the immune system and zinc deficiency may be...

Old McDonald had a Microscope: The Impact of Research Spending on U.S. Agricultural Productivity

Creator:: Rietmann, Benjamin J.
Abstract:: The United States is a global leader in agricultural productivity. Much of its productivity growth can be attributed to public investments in agricultural research and development, starting in the 19th century and continuing until today. Past studies have shown high returns to agricultural research investments, but publicly funded agricultural research...

Are they what they eat? A stable GIT microbiome characterized in P. resecata

Creator:: Gustafson, Tarah N.
Abstract:: Intertidal herbivores, such as isopods, help regulate and contribute to nutrient cycling and organic carbon flow through the trophic levels in estuaries and coastal ecosystems. Though much is known about the microbiomes of macrophyte leaves that serve as the primary food source for isopods, and (to a lesser extent) the...
