-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)The tendency of PS-b-PDMS to phase separate, the tunability of the resulting morphology and the sufficient etch contrast between PS and PDMS makes the block copolymer ideal for creating patterns that can be transferred ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Optical-mode converters are needed to efficiently couple light from an optical fiber to a photonic circuit by matching and transforming the propagating modes. This work is based on a horizontally-tapered coupler, in which ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)Type I Diabetes is a condition in which the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, leading to dysregulation in glucose metabolism. Most Type I diabetics take insulin injections after each meal in order to remain euglycemic. ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)In development of the critical -angle transmission (CAT) grating, structural failure of the thin self-standing grating membrane posts a challenge for manufacturing yield. The major risk comes from the strongly compressive ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The future NASA Mars project will need an ultra-fast, highly sensitive photodetector to increase the bandwidth of free-space long-range communication, which is now done primarily using RF signals. Our original motivation ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)The key accomplishment of this work is the demonstration of spatial control over architecture and surface chemistry in three-dimensional tissue engineering scaffolds. Tissues are characterized by a well-defined three-dimensional ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)In vitro liver models are a critical tool in pharmaceutical research, yet standard hepatocyte cultures fail to capture the complexity of in vivo tissue behavior. One of the most critical features of the in vivo liver is ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Mixed monolayer protected gold nanoparticles were linked using octanedithiol to form aggregates containing hundreds of nanoparticles. These aggregates are an interesting material, posing potential applications in the fields ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This thesis presents fabrication process improvements for a RF MEMS resonator for the purpose of improving the quality factor (Q) and extending the frequency range. The process changes include the use of conformable contact ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)In this document I discuss the fabrication of metallic, aluminum and aluminum oxide, 3D micro channels, made with standard milling technology, along with two channel closing methods for openable devices: half cured-glued ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1973)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)With more 3D printable materials being invented, 3D printers nowadays could replicate not only geometries, but also appearance and physical properties. On the software side, the tight coupling between geometry and material ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1988)This thesis explores the possibility of independent, expressive, and contemporary design resulting from an initial contextual investigation. The site is located in Paris, on Avenue Montaigne, adjacent to the mid-point of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Shifting political, social and cultural landscapes in contemporary Cairo with the triumph of Neolibralism are defining the city's modem heritage. In order to create a narrative of transformation of architectural production ...
