    • Descriptive Statistics for Modern Test Score Distributions: Skewness, Kurtosis, Discreteness, and Ceiling Effects 

      Ho, Andrew Dean; Yu, C (SAGE Publications, 2014)
      Many statistical analyses benefit from the assumption that unconditional or conditional distributions are continuous and normal. Over fifty years ago in this journal, Lord (1955) and Cook (1959) chronicled departures from ...

    • Nanowires as Optoelectronic and Photonic Elements 

      Yu, Chun Liang (2013-02-08)
      Integrated photonic circuits require small photonic elements. Recent progress in nanowire synthesis and nanofabrication enables us to investigate the potential of nanowires in novel integrated photonic devices. This thesis ...

    • Near-field Electrical Detection of Optical Plasmons and Single Plasmon Sources 

      Falk, Abraham; Koppens, Frank; Yu, Chun Liang; Kang, Kibum; Snapp, Nathalie; Akimov, Alexey; Jo, Moon-Ho; Lukin, Mikhail D.; Park, Hongkun (Nature Publishing Group, 2009)
      Photonic circuits can be much faster than their electronic counterparts, but they are difficult to miniaturize below the optical wavelength scale. Nanoscale photonic circuits based on surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are ...

    • Predicting Freshman Grade Point Average From College Admissions Test Scores and State High School Test Scores 

      Koretz, Daniel; Yu, C; Mbekeani, Preeya Pandya; Langi, M.; Dhaliwal, Tasminda Kaur; Braslow, David Arthur (SAGE Publications, 2016)
      The current focus on assessing “college and career readiness” raises an empirical question: How do high school tests compare with college admissions tests in predicting performance in college? We explored this using data ...

    • Tailoring Light-Matter Interaction with a Nanoscale Plasmon Resonator 

      de Leon, Nathalie Pulmones; Shields, Brendan John; Yu, Chun; Englund, Dirk E.; Akimov, Alexey; Lukin, Mikhail D.; Park, Hongkun (American Physical Society (APS), 2012)
      We propose and demonstrate a new approach for achieving enhanced light-matter interactions with quantum emitters. Our approach makes use of a plasmon resonator composed of defect-free, highly crystalline silver nanowires ...
