Investigating Carrier Temperature in LED Quantum Well Driven Below the Turn-On Voltage

Creator:: Jeliazkova, Michelle
Abstract:: Electron behavior in semiconductor materials critically determines electronic applications. Previous research has shown carrier temperature higher than the lattice temperature of LEDs due to energy differences in the quantum well. Study of these findings requires a novel set-up to dig out weak signal in a thermal-noise filled environment; analytical methods...

Application of a weighted Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) for Structure Comparison in Radiation Treatment Planning

Creator:: Fried, Zachary
Abstract:: Coded metrics that compare representations of structures within the human body to evaluate their similarity are considered useful for planning radiation therapy on cancer targets. However, existing metrics fail to take into account the dose of radiation that will be received by both the target, and surrounding non-target tissue, during...

Ink and Substrate Compatibility for Electrochemical Sensing in Paper-based Devices

Creator:: Reid, Caitlin A.
Abstract:: Electrochemical sensing provides a quantitative alternative to colorimetric reactions within paper-based devices. The paper-based devices were fabricated by screen printing the conductive and reference inks onto porous substrates that were evaluated using cyclic voltammetry. Devices were evaluated based on the magnitude of the average anodic peak height, which correlates with...

Twist in a Torus: Minimization of Nematic Conﬁgurations with Discontinuous Director Fields in Toroidal Coordinates

Creator:: Reid, Trevor S.
Abstract:: The ring disclination is a topological defect that may be suitable for light polarization inside of a nematic liquid crystal. Due to its stability and chirality, the ring disclination could also allow for theoretical applications to quantum and classical ﬁeld theories as a model for fundamental particles. In order to...

Preparation of Tacrolimus-loaded Biodegradable Nanoparticles for Sustained Drug Delivery

Creator:: Kinser, Reid
Abstract:: Tacrolimus is an immunosuppressant drug approved by the FDA for the prevention of organ transplant rejection. However, the use of this drug is hindered by its narrow therapeutic window and extreme insolubility in water. Due to these properties, the currently used tacrolimus preparations must be administered once or twice daily...

Interactive Science Learning Program for Elementary School Students at Beazell Memorial Forest in Philomath, OR

Creator:: Sweetkind, Reid Smith
Abstract:: The FOCUS (Forest, Organisms, Creeks yoU Study) field trip program was developed to provide elementary students in Benton County, Oregon with a hands-on, environmental education experience at Beazell Memorial Forest. Students participated in activities dedicated to specific habitats and organisms found at Beazell that built upon their learning at school....

Role of P2Y₁₂ Inhibition in PAR1 Stimulated Platelet Dense Granule Release

Creator:: Laschober, Nicole B.
Abstract:: Platelet activation uses a complex set of pathways to respond to vascular injury during hemostasis. However, thrombosis relies on the same set of pathways. Antiplatelet therapies used to prevent thrombotic events often target the P2Y₁₂ platelet receptor for inhibition but can result in bleeding diathesis or in abnormally high ADP...

The Relationship between Attention and Rapport in Conversation with AAC Users

Creator:: Nguyen, Duy M.
Abstract:: Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices enable people who cannot speak to communicate with others. Unfortunately, they are tedious to use and are believed to lower the satisfaction of interacting with others. This thesis attempted to document the impact that AAC devices have on social interactions, in the hope of...

Optimization of Pulsed Laser Deposited Piezoelectric Thin Films for Microelectromechanical Systems

Creator:: Kearney, Dylan R.
Abstract:: Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is well known to exhibit some of the strongest piezoelectric responses, explaining why it is at the heart of piezoelectric-based microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) research. The use of pulsed laser deposition (PLD) to synthesize PZT offers many advantages over alternative deposition techniques, mainly regarding its ability to...

Preliminary deployment and evaluation of geophone sensors for monitoring wave activity: GeoMoteShield

Creator:: Lathrop, Eve
Abstract:: This study focuses specifically on the investigation of a new, inexpensive geophone system and its application to monitor wave activity. Studies of seismic observations of coastal cliffs suggest that ground motions generated from local ocean waves may provide a surrogate to limited wave buoy data to quantify the wave contact...
