(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Lithium-ion batteries are commonly used in portable electronics, and the rapid growth of mobile technology calls for an improvement in battery capabilities. Reducing the particle size of electrode materials in synthesis ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Inorganic graphene-like materials such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂), tungsten sulfide (WS₂), and boron nitride (BN) are known to have electronic properties. When exfoliated into layers and casted onto carbon nanofilms, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Core-shell baroplastics are nanophase materials that exhibit pressure-induced flow at low temperatures and high pressures. Core-shell baroplastics used in this work are comprised of a low Tg poly(butyl acrylate) (PBA) core ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)The influence of different counter-ions on the superhydrophilic and antifogging behavior of polyelectrolyte multilayers was examined. Multilayers assembled with a polymer anion and amine-modified silica nanoparticles were ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The following study examines how the costs and benefits of improving fuel economy of vehicles via lightweighting with aluminum closures change with gas price. A process-based cost model is used to evaluate the costs of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)The epithelial cell adhesion molecule E-cadherin is often down regulated during carcinoma progression and metastatic spread of tumors. However, the precise mechanism and molecular basis of metastasis promotion by E-cadherin ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Raman spectroscopy is used to probe the structural change of Lanthanum Strontium Cobaltite (La1.xSrxCoO 3 -8) thin films across change in composition (0%-60% strontium) and temperature (30*C-520°C). Raman shift peaks were ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Titanium-tantalum (Ti-Ta) alloys are likely to have a high biocompatibility and corrosion resistance that renders them novel materials of interest for biomedical applications[7, 14, 2]. With high strength and a low elastic ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Knowledge of the oxygen levels in a tumor is a current goal of cancer research due to the importance of hypoxia on tumor growth and treatment. Previous work by the Cima group at MIT has shown that an oxygen sensor made ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)An Iron-based bulk metallic glass was studied using nanoindentation to examine the effects of fatigue on the onset of plasticity. Experiments were performed on samples in an as received and 0.8Tg 12-hour annealed condition. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Thin film solar cells are currently being investigated as an affordable alternative energy source because of the reduced material cost. However, these devices suffer from low efficiencies, compared to silicon wafer solar ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)In both the Andean zone of South America and in Mesoamerica, copper-silver alloys were important in the production of thin, silver-colored sheet metal artifacts. This thesis examines the mechanical and physical properties ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)This thesis examines a small corpus of artifacts from Tal-i Iblis, Iran dating to the mid-6th millennium BCE. When excavated in the late 1960s, these artifacts were presumed to be evidence of an early copper smelting ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Magnetostriction measurements were taken on samples of Fe-Ga alloys (Galfenol) containing between 18% and 35% Ga in fields of 5 kOe to 24 kOe from room temperature to liquid nitrogen temperature. In addition, room temperature ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This work builds on the initial design of a polymer microchip for controlled-release drug delivery. Currently, the microchip employs a nonbiodegradable sealant layer, and the new design aims to fabricate it only of ...
