Cubic phase Li₇La₃Zr₂O₁₂ (LLZO) is a promising solid electrolyte for all solid-state lithium-ion battery, due to its reasonable ionic conductivity, stable against metallic Li, wide chemical window, and thermal and chemical stability. The main aim of this thesis is to investigate the influences of different synthesis methods on the structure...
Delta-Sigma (ΔΣ) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are traditionally used in high quality audio systems, instrumentation and measurement (I&M) and biomedical devices. With the continued downscaling of CMOS technology, they are becoming popular in wideband applications such as wireless and wired communication systems,high-definition television and radar systems. There are two general realizations...
Internal browning (IB) can be a serious problem with the use of modified atmosphere packaging
(MAP) for 'Bartlett' pears (Pyrus communis L.) grown in the Pacific Northwest during storage
and transit to distant markets. To investigate this disorder, 'Bartlett' pears harvested at
commercial maturity were packed in a commercial MAP...
Most sweet cherries produced in the US Pacific Northwest and shipped to distant markets are often in storage and transit for over 3 weeks. The objectives of this research were to study the effects of sweet cherry storage O2 and CO2 concentrations on the respiratory physiology and the efficacy of...
Six Ca(NO3)(2) sprays at 0.3% and 0.6% from pit hardening (PH) to 1 week before harvest (1WBH) most effectively increased Ca uptake in sweet cherry (Prunus avium). Low concentration (< 0.3%) did not affect the absorption of Ca; high concentration (> 1.6%) caused burning of leaf margins. Fruit treated with...
Recent trends towards greater fresh market use of 'Bartlett' pears has increased the need to extend its storage life to prolong the packing and marketing season in the United States Pacific Northwest region. Sixteen and 38%, respectively, of control fruit developed senescence disorders following 5 and 6 months of storage...
To improve storage/shipping quality of sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.), the effect of calcium chloride (CaCl₂) added to hydro-cooling water on physiological and biochemical processes related to fruit and pedicel quality was investigated on two major cultivars. The fruit tissue Ca content increased up to 29% to 85% logarithmically for...

The production and export of late season sweet cherry cultivars continues to increase in the US Pacific Northwest (PNW). Major postharvest quality deterioration during long distance ocean shipping include flavor loss, off-flavor development, skin darkening, pedicel browning, pitting, and decay. In this research, three modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) liners with...
