(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Solar photovoltaic (PV) deployment has been steadily expanding over the past decade. While decreasing our reliance on fossil fuels will be beneficial for the environment, increasing our exposure to an intermittent renewable ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Three-dimensional biomaterial scaffolds have begun to shown promise for cell delivery for cardiac tissue engineering. Although various polymers and material forms have been explored, there is a need for: injectable gels ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Molten salts are important heat transfer fluids used in nuclear, solar and other high temperature engineering systems. Dispersing nanoparticles in molten salts can enhance the heat transfer capabilities of the fluid. High ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)RNA-based therapy is an exciting new realm of experimental medicine due to the diverse roles of RNA in the human body. RNA function depends on sequence, structure, and cellular location. Whereas cytosolic short-interfering ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Small dimension engineering tubular structures subjected to a complex load system are designed like hollow circular shells. For minimum weight design, the ratio between the shell radius and the thickness has to be as large ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Block copolymer photonic gels are a simple and easily processed material which responds rapidly to environmental stimuli through a color change. The diblock copolymer that forms the gel self-assembles into a lamellar ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)In the drive from microfabrication to nanofabrication, porous alumina templates may play a key role in technological evolution. Under the right processing conditions, ordered pores can grow in anodic aluminum oxide, which ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)The cost of manufacturing electronic displays currently limits the range of applications and markets into which it is currently economically feasible to adopt displays. Roll-to-roll manufacturing has been identified by the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Realm of data storage density has expanded from gigabyte- to terabyte-domain. In such a high areal density, bit-patterned media is a promising candidate to overcome the superparamagnetic limit faced by the conventional ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Cryptomelane-type Manganese oxide (OMS-2, a group of Octahedral Molecular Sieves) nanowire paper exhibits interesting properties: reversible wettability, oleophilic while being hydrophobic, and high thermal stability. These ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)One important component in energy usage is lighting, which is currently dominated by incandescent and fluorescent lamps. However, due to potentially higher efficiencies and thus higher energy savings, solid-state lighting ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)This thesis explores the commercialization of germanium-based nanocrystal memories. Demand for smaller and faster electronics and embedded systems supports the development of high-density, low-power non-volatile electronic ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Wafer bonding is a key process and enabling technology for realization of three-dimensional integrated circuits (3DIC) with reduced interconnect delay and correspondingly increased circuit speed and decreased power ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)It is well known that the use of high-brightness LEDs for illumination has the potential to substitute conventional lighting and revolutionize the lighting industry over the next 10 to 20 years. However, successful penetration ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)The commercial potential of SOLES (Silicon on Lattice-Engineered Substrate) is investigated considering the competing technologies, competing market players and market demands. Monolithic integration of Si devices with ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This project considers the potential of Ge - Si₁₋x̳Gex̳ - Si substrates for solar applications. The use of compositionally graded substrates to achieve heterointegration across different materials platforms such as Si, Ge ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)The price of oil has continued to rise, from a high of US$100 per barrel at the beginning 2008 to a new record of above US$140 in the recent weeks (of July). Coupled with increasing insidious greenhouse gas emissions, the ...
