Fabrication and characterization of p-type CuO / n-type ZnO heterostructure gas sensors prepared by sol-gel processing techniques

Creator:: Ravichandran, Ram
Abstract:: Increased interest in the field of sensor technology stems from the availability of an inexpensive and robust sensor to detect and quantify the presence of a specific gas. Bulk p-CuO/n-ZnO heterocontact based gas sensors have been shown to exhibit the necessary sensitivity and selectivity characteristics, however, low interfacial CuO/ZnO contact...

Fabrication and characterization of thin-film electromagnetic coils and heaters for microchannel applications

Creator:: Dehuff, Nicole L.
Abstract:: The focus of this thesis involves developing general fabrication processes relevant to the manufacture of two new devices for the Microscale technology Energy and Chemical Systems (MECS) program at Oregon State University. The two MECS devices developed, capture dots and transparent thin-film heaters (TTFHs), require unique process development for successful...

Electro-optic characterization of SrS-based alternating current thin-film electroluminescent devices

Creator:: Nevers, Corey A.
Abstract:: Two methods of electro-optically characterizing alternating-current thin-film electroluminescent (ACTFEL) devices are investigated: photo-induced transferred charge (PIQ) and luminescence (PIL), and subthreshold voltage-induced transferred charge (VIQ) techniques. Both techniques provide information related to traps within the phosphor layer. PIQ/PIL experiments monitor the transport of electrons and holes across the phosphor layer...

Deep ultraviolet solid-state laser development

Creator:: Dutton, David A. (David Adam)
Abstract:: There is a new possibility of generating deep ultraviolet laser radiation from a solid-state source. With recent advances in material development, a new nonlinear optical crystal provides a greater damage threshold than current materials making higher conversion efficiencies possible. This thesis examines the possibility of using this crystal to generate...

The construction and computational modeling of a fiber Bragg grating tunable laser diode

Creator:: Winz, Michele W.
Abstract:: The widespread adoption of wavelength division multiplexing to increase the bandwidth of optical fiber communication systems has provided a major impetus for research on low cost, single-mode, wavelength stable tunable diode lasers for use in optical telecommunications due to the large volume of lasers required. Other applications, such as demodulation...

Alternating-current thin-film electroluminescent device optical excitation experiments

Creator:: Cleary, Bradford A.
Abstract:: This thesis investigates two methods of optical excitation of alternating-current thin-film electroluminescent (ACTFEL) devices. The two experimental methods investigated in this thesis are the photo-induced charge (PIQ) and luminescence (PIL), and the subthreshold-voltage induced transferred charge (VIQ) techniques. PIQ/PIL experiments utilize an above-bandgap laser pulse to investigate the transport properties...

Candidate Genes Associated with Blister Rust Resistance in Whitebark Pine (Pinus albicaulis) Revealed through de novo Transcriptome Assembly and Differential Gene Expression Analysis

Creator:: Bair, Zolton J.
Abstract:: Whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) is an iconic North American high-elevation tree species currently threatened by climate change, mountain pine beetle, and white pine blister rust (WPBR), a lethal disease caused by the non-native fungal pathogen Cronartium ribicola. In collaboration with the USDA Forest Service Dorena Genetic Resource Center, germplasm was...

Investigating Protein-lipid-membrane Interactions in Plant Cells using Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation

Creator:: Tao, Kai
Abstract:: The overall focus of this thesis is on the distribution of specific lipids and membrane proteins of the external and internal membranes of plant cells, in the context of the roles that those lipids and proteins may play in microbe-plant interactions. The work includes the development of several new tools,...

The Role of Intraspecific Functional Trait Variation in the Differential Decline of Meadow Species Following Conifer Encroachment

Creator:: Celis, Jessica
Abstract:: In the Oregon Cascade Range, conifer encroachment has reduced the extent of mountain meadows by as much as 50% since the mid-1940s. Although encroachment results in a general decline of meadow species abundance and diversity, species differ in their sensitivities to encroachment: some show rapid declines whereas others persist in...

Understory herb and shrub responses to root trenching, pre-commercial thinning, and canopy closure in Douglas-fir forest of the western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Lindh, Briana C.
Abstract:: This thesis examines factors limiting understory herb presence and flowering in young second-growth Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) forests on the west side of the Cascade Mountains, Oregon, USA. I studied the belowground effects of canopy trees on understory herbs and shrubs in old-growth forests using trenched plots from which tree roots...
