X-ray computed tomography is a noninvasive imaging modality capable of reconstructing exact density values of 3D objects. Computed tomography machines are deployed across the world to provide doctors with an image that reveals more detail than a standard x-ray image. We investigate algorithms based on exact computed tomography reconstruction formulas...
Benthic foraminiferal δ¹³C data from site 502 in the Caribbean Sea (sill depth 1800 m) indicate that throughout the past 2.6 m.y., glacial δ¹³C values in the middepth Atlantic were higher during glaciations than interglaciations. This is interpreted as indicating a greater proportion of Upper North Atlantic Deep Water (UNADW)...
From my personal experiences, I’ve noticed that Latinx students and families are most receptive to college-related information communicated as anecdotes. Latinx students are among the most poorly represented demographic at universities nationwide, which I believe can be mitigated through calculated efforts to increase collegiate literacy and understanding. This project is...
exceptional examples of the Nation’s biological and geological features. To qualify for
NNL designation, a site must be one of the best examples of a geological or biological
feature within a biophysiographic province. Zumwalt Prairie represents a perfect example
of this concept, containing one of the largest remnants of native...
This technical report summarizes the
results of a three year study of the zooplankton
living in the nearshore zone off
Newport, Oregon. The sampling program was
part of the Early Life History (ELH) project
of the Oregon State University Sea Grant Program
and was designed to study the ecology
of...
A study was done on the zoogeography of species of oceanic
shrimp in the North Pacific from 22°N to 56°N and from 124°W to
145°E, using samples of shrimp collected from 1954 to 1969. These
collections were made during the following cruises: John R. Manning
Cruise 22, and the Hugh...
The central focus of this thesis is the design, fabrication and characterization of amorphous oxide semiconductor (AOS) thin-film transistor (TFT) current mirrors. The thin-film deposition and circuit fabrication methods used to realize zinc tin oxide (ZTO) TFT
current mirrors are addressed in order to elucidate the processing challenges for this...
The primary objective of this thesis is to develop a process for fabricating integrated circuits based on thin-film transistors (TFTs) using zinc tin oxide (ZTO) as the channel layer. ZTO, in contrast to indium- or gallium-based amorphous oxide semiconductors (AOS), is perceived to be a more commercially viable AOS choice...
Zinc tin oxide (ZTO) films deposited by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) are
investigated as a channel layers for transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs).
Films are deposited on glass for characterization, and transistor channel layers are
deposited onto aluminum oxide-titanium oxide/tin doped indium oxide/glass
substrates (ATO/ITO/glass) to produce TTFTs.
UV-visible spectroscopy on...
The dipyridophenazine (dppz) based ruthenium polypyridyl complexes are known as molecular ‘light-switches’ for DNA. This property is poised to serve in diagnostic and therapeutic applications, but the poor cellular uptake restricts their use in live cells. Herein, we show that the cellular uptake, and more interestingly and surprisingly, the nuclear...
