Experimental Evaluation of Multiscale Behavior of Human Bone
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Bone is the most important structural member of the human body. It has a unique
hierarchical structure and its primary constituents, collagen molecules and hydroxyapatite, are
arranged in a staggered pattern at nanometer ...
Optical Properties and Ensemble Characteristics of Size Purified Silicon Nanocrystals
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Nanotechnology is at the forefront of current scienti c research and nanocrystals
are being hailed as the `arti cial' atoms of the 21st century. Semiconducting silicon
nanocrystals (SiNCs) are prime candidates for potential ...
Laser-Assisted Advanced Assembly for MEMS Fabrication
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) are currently fabricated using methods originally designed for manufacturing semiconductor devices, using minimum if any assembly at all. The inherited limitations of this approach ...
Biomimetic Nanoclay Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Tissue engineering offers a significant potential alternative to conventional methods for rectifying tissue defects by evoking natural regeneration process via interactions between cells and 3D porous scaffolds. Imparting ...
Multicomponent Doped Barium Strontium Titanate Thin Films for Tunable Microwave Applications
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
In recent years there has been enormous progress in the development of barium strontium titanate (BST) films for tunable microwave applications. However, the properties of BST films still remain inferior compared to bulk ...
Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Hierarchically Functionalized Carbon Nanofibers for Energy Conversion and Storage Applications
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Among various energy conversion and storage devices available in the market, supercapacitors are deemed as an effective, competitive solution to the increasing demand for high-power density energy-storage devices. Yet, ...
