Peterson, Sarah M., 1975-
(University of Oregon, 2007-12)
Silver films with nanoscale to mesoscale thicknesses were produced by chemical reduction onto silica substrates and their physical and electrical properties were investigated and characterized. The method of silver deposition ...

Gatlin, Jason Trevor, 1976-
(University of Oregon, 2007-12)
Tridecameric inorganic hydroxo/aquo nanoclusters comprise a very small fraction of compounds under the large and varied umbrella of inorganic clusters. The Anderson-Evans cluster is a subset of these larger polymetallic ...
-
Lohman, Jeremy R., 1981-
(University of Oregon, 2007-12)
Cellular processes are carried out by proteins, which often utilize conformational changes for function. In theory, conformational changes can be harnessed to promote, prevent or monitor cellular processes. Such changes ...

Thompson, John O., 1962-
(University of Oregon, 2007-12)
This dissertation describes the deposition and characterization of an amorphous thin film with a composition near that of CuInSe 2 (CIS). The creation of an amorphous intermediate leads to a crystalline film at low annealing ...
-
Sweeney, Scott Francis, 1977-
(University of Oregon, 2007-12)
Gold nanoparticles have garnered recent attention due to their intriguing size- and shape-dependent properties. Routine access to well-defined gold nanoparticle samples in terms of core diameter, shape, peripheral functionality ...
-
Jespersen, Michael L., 1979-
(University of Oregon, 2008-03)
Gold nanoparticles in the 1-2 mn core diameter size regime have generated a great deal of interest due to their size-dependent electronic, optical, and catalytic properties. A number of proof-of-concept experiments have ...
-
O'Connor, Matthew John, 1980-
(University of Oregon, 2008-03)
Highly conjugated carbon-rich systems have demonstrated many attractive applications for fundamental and materials science applications, including--but not limited to--probes for aromaticity, charge-transfer complexes, ...
-
Spitler, Eric Lewis, 1980-
(University of Oregon, 2008-03)
Highly conjugated carbon-rich molecules have attracted interest in recent years due to unique electronic, optical and materials properties. Carbon networks based upon the phenylacetylene subunit are increasingly recognized ...
-
Berryman, Orion Boyd, 1981-
(University of Oregon, 2008-06)
More than two-thirds of all enzyme substrates and cofactors are anionic, emphasizing the essential role that anions play in biological processes. Moreover, anions can have detrimental effects on the environment by causing ...
-
Daglen, Bevin Colleen, 1977-
(University of Oregon, 2008-09)
There are compelling economic and environmental reasons for using degradable plastics in selected applications and considerable research is now devoted to devising new photodegradable polymers with improved performance. ...
-
Ahmed, Takiya Janice, 1980-
(University of Oregon, 2008-09)
Efforts toward developing improved methods of synthesizing acrylamides are ongoing. Several homogeneous organometallic and coordination complexes have proven useful in catalytic acrylonitrile hydration; however, none of ...
-
Goers, Emily Sarah Marie, 1981-
(University of Oregon, 2008-12)
Myotonic Dystrophy type I (DM1) is caused by muscleblind protein sequestration to aberrantly expanded CUG repeats. When muscleblind is sequestered it can no longer fulfill its role as an alternative splicing regulator, ...
-
McFearin, Cathryn LeAn, 1979-
(University of Oregon, 2009-03)
The interface between water and an organic liquid is present in a variety of biological, environmental, and chemical processes throughout science and nature. Issues such as environmental remediation and ion transport are ...
-
Ricketson, Derek Lee, 1980-
(University of Oregon, 2009-06)
Non-muscle myosin II generates contractile forces for processes such as cytokinesis, motility, and polarity. Contractility requires assembly of myosin molecules into bipolar mini-filaments through electrostatic interactions ...
-
Wolf, Erich N.
(University of Oregon, 2009-06)
Doppler-limited, steady-state, linear absorption spectra of 127 I 2 (diatomic iodine) near 675 nm were recorded with an internally-referenced wavelength modulation spectrometer, built around a free-running diode laser ...
-
Pitt, Melanie A., 1980-
(University of Oregon, 2009-06)
Main group supramolecular chemistry is a rapidly expanding field that combines the tools of coordination chemistry with the unusual and frequently unexpected coordination preferences exhibited by the main group elements. ...
-
Senning, Eric Nicolas, 1978-
(University of Oregon, 2009-09)
Novel experiments that probe the dynamics of intracellular species, including the center-of-mass displacements and internal conformational transitions of biological macromolecules, have the potential to reveal the complex ...
