(2008)
This thesis presents experimental results and discussion regarding issues related to organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). In particular, this thesis has three main focuses: the generation of white light from Förster ...
Optical and Magnetic Manipulation of Hybrid Micro and Nanoparticle Sensors.
(2008)
Microparticles and nanoparticles have been used in a wide variety of applications ranging from biomedical to optical and electronic technologies. The microscopic and mesoscopic size scale of single particles makes them ...
A Building Block Approach Towards Novel Nonlinear Optical Materials.
(2007)
The purpose of the present research is to develop and apply a building block approach towards the design of novel nonlinear optical materials, capable of exhibiting enhanced Two-Photon Absorption (TPA) behavior. These ...
SMARTS Approach to Chemical Data Mining and Physicochemical Property Prediction.
(2009)
The calculation of physicochemical and biological properties is essential in order to facilitate modern drug discovery. Chemical spaces dimensionalized by these descriptors have been used to scaffold-hop in order to discover ...
Pore Characterization of Ultralow-k Dielectric Thin Films Using Positronium Annihilation Spectroscopy.
(2008)
In this thesis, a series of nanoporous ultralow dielectric constant (ULK) thin films fabricated using spin-coating and sacrificial pore generators (degradable porogens embedded in a host matrix) were studied as a function ...
