Design and implementation of electrokinetic probes for cartilage diagnosis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
Magnetic properties of an isolated quantum dot
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)
A microfabricated solid oxide fuel cell
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
With the ever-increasing ubiquity of mobile consumer electronic devices comes the rising demand for portable electric power. Current battery technology gives a very modest energy return per weight or volume. Hydrocarbons ...
Design and fabrication of sharp bend photonic crystal slab waveguides
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)
A periodic arrangement of atoms in a crystal presents a periodic potential for electrons. The bragg diffraction of electrons from the atoms may lead to a band gap, which represents a range of frequencies the electrons ...
Instrumentation and algorithms for electrostatic inverse problems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)
This thesis describes tracking objects with low-level electric fields. A physical model is presented that describes the important interactions and the required mathematical inversions. Sophisticated hardware used to perform ...
Cavity filtered injection locking for large angle atomic interferometry
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)
Dynamic line integral convolution for visualizing electromagnetic phenomena
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)
Vector field visualization is a useful tool in science and engineering, giving us a powerful way of understanding the structure and evolution of the field. A fairly recent technique called Line Integral Convolution (LIC) ...
Finite-difference time-domain analysis of horn antenna scattering
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
Quantum Systems Simulator
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)
Feasibility studies for quantum computation with spectral hole burning media
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
In this thesis I consider a scheme for quantum computation in which quantum bits (qubits) are stored in individual spectral holes of an in homogeneously broadened medium, such as a cryogenically cooled crystal of Pr:Y2 SiO ...
