Recent demographic studies have revealed a greater diversity in settlement patterns among Mexican immigrant families resulting in rapidly climbing populations of immigrants in new areas of the country, particularly in rural areas, while growth in established destinations has slowed. Host communities play an important role in families' acculturation processes and...
Adolescence is a developmental stage marked by crystallization in individuals’ sense of identity (Erikson, 1994; Harter, 1999). Research on positive youth development stresses the ways in which thriving trajectories during adolescence contribute to positive lifelong outcomes (Lerner & Overton, 2008; Scales, Benson, & Roehlkepartain, 2011) A symbolic interactionism perspective (Mead,...
Organic semiconductors are of interest for (opto)electronic applications due to their low cost, solution processability, and tunable properties. Natural product-derived organic pigments have attracted attention due to their extraordinary environmental stability and unexpectedly good optoelectronic performance, in spite of only partially conjugated molecular structures. Fungi-derived pigments are a naturally sourced,...
This research work focuses on the mechanism of 1/f noise in GaAs
resistors on semi-insulating substrates and 1/f noise due to temperature
fluctuations in heat conduction in resistors, diodes, and bipolar transistors. The
goal of this research is to generate accurate models to explain physical origin of 1/f
noise in...
