Nanofabrication of Hybrid Optoelectronic Devices
(2015-04-24)
The material requirements for optoelectronic devices can vary dramatically depending on the application. Often disparate material systems need to be combined to allow for full device functionality. At the nanometer scale, ...
Nanopatterning and Transport Properties of Cuprate Superconductors
(2015-05-19)
Almost 30 years since the discovery of the copper oxide high temperature superconductors, the underlying mechanism describing their behavior continues to elude experimentalists and theorists alike. Understanding the ...
Internal Dynamics of Equilibrium Colloidal Clusters
(2015-05-18)
Colloidal clusters, aggregates of a few micrometer-sized spherical particles, are a model experimental system for understanding the physics of self-assembly and processes such as nucleation. Colloidal clusters are well ...
Zero-Index Metamaterials: A New Phase in Integrated Optics
(2018-09-25)
Metamaterials with a refractive index of zero exhibit properties that are important for integrated optics. Possessing an infinite effective wavelength and zero spatial phase change, zero-index metamaterials may be especially ...
Reconfigurable Metasurfaces in the Infrared
(2018-01-19)
Recently there has been great interest in the applications of infrared (IR) light in many areas, including infrared imaging, trace-gas detection, biological and medical sensing, and environmental monitoring. Over the last ...
High-Throughput Genetic Analysis of Single Cells Using Microfluidically Generated Hydrogels
(2018-01-22)
Typical metagenomic datasets characterize populations as a whole by sequencing all the DNA fragments present in a sample, and are therefore unable to identify different genes as having originated from the same cell or ...
Active dynamics of microtubule and motor protein networks
(2017-05-04)
Cellular components have the remarkable ability to self-organize in space and time into higher order structures necessary to carry out biological functions. One example of such a structure is the spindle apparatus, a ...
Human Orthotopic and Metastatic Lung Cancer-on-Chip Models
(2017-07-19)
Development of improved cancer therapeutics requires better experimental models because results from animals often do not predict drug responses in humans. Cancer researchers often implant human tumor xenografts in mice ...
Rare-Earth-Doped Lasers on Silicon Photonics Platforms
(2018-08-17)
Laser sources are of great interest due to their wide applications in detection, sensing, communication, material processing and medicine. Silicon photonics is a promising technology which enables these laser devices to ...
Electrode Suspensions With Tailored Flow Behavior and Electrochemical Performance for Multiscale Lithium Ion Batteries
(2017-04-28)
Rechargeable Li-ion batteries (LIBs) are widely used in applications ranging from portable electronics to electric vehicles. They are also being explored for grid-scale energy storage. To date, commercial LIBs have been ...
