Interfacial nanostructure dictates macro-structural properties of carbon-carbon composites

Singh M., Vander Wal R., Pennsylvania State University, US
Carbon-carbon composites, originally developed for aerospace applications, are materials that consist of a carbonaceous matrix with an embedded carbon filler providing the required reinforcement for thermal and mechanical stability. An important aspect of composites is [...]

Effect of filler size in a graphene-anthracene carbon-carbon composite

Singh M., Vander Wal R., Pennsylvania State University, US
Characterizing carbon-carbon composite behavior across multiple length scales is essential to comprehending its macro-scale behavior. This work characterizes a graphene-anthracene composite from the nano- to the micron-scale with a variety of analytical techniques brought to [...]

An optofluidic device for characterizing the effect of viscosity and density on mass transfer

Lapsley M.I., Nama N., Yazdi S., Huang T.J., Pennsylvania State University, US
In this study, we developed an optofluidic device for analyzing the mass transfer of materials in a microfluidic channel. This device uses refractometry to monitor concentration in contrast to typical methods which use florescent markers. [...]

Agent Reactive Modulated Optical Reflector for Hazardous Agent Detection

Kovalev A.E., Bray M.G., Mayer T.S., Werner D.H., Pennsylvania State University, US
We demonstrate a standoff passive sensor working in the near infrared range. The device uses a platform based on dielectric and metallo-dielectric layers. The sensor demonstrated a significant change in the reflection coefficient if exposed [...]

Invention of Polysaccharide-base Nanoparticles for Enhancing Drug Permeability across the Blood Brain Barrier

Gil E.S., Lowe T.L., Pennsylvania State University, US
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate novel cationic and degradable beta-cyclodextrin nanoparticles as drug delivery carriers for insulin across the bovine brain microvessel endothelial cell (BBMVEC) monolayer, an in vitro blood brain [...]

Autonomous Nanoscale Motion Through Catalysis

Sen A., Pennsylvania State University, US
Nanoscale moving systems are currently the subject of intense interest due in part to their potential applications in nanomachinery, nanoscale assembly, robotics, tribology, fluidics, and chemical/biochemical sensing. Most of the research in this area has [...]

Silicon Nanowire Transistors Fabricated by the Mass-Manufacturable, Self-Assembling “Grow-in-Place” Approach

Shan Y., Fonash S.J., Pennsylvania State University, US
Silicon nanowire (SiNW) transistor fabrication, until our work, has had environmental concerns and manufacturing issues arising from the use of a complex process flow involving SiNW growth and harvesting followed by nanowire positioning, aligning and [...]

Theory and Modeling Techniques used in PSP Model

Gildenblat G., Li X., Wang H., Wu W., Jha A., van Langevelde R., Scholten A.J., Smit G.D.J., Klaassen D.B.M., Pennsylvania State University, US
This paper describes theoretical foundation and details of the new compact modeling techniques used in the advanced surface-potential-based compact MOSFET model PSP, jointly developed by the Pennsylvania State University and Philips Research. Specific topics include [...]

Feasibility Study of Directed Self-Assembly of Semiconductor Quantum Dots

Friedman L.H., Xu J., Pennsylvania State University, US
Strain mismatched semiconductors are used to form Self-Assembled Quantum Dots (SAQDs). An important step in developing SAQD technology is to control randomness and disorder in SAQD arrays. There is usually both spatial and size disorder. [...]
