(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Glial scar tissue forms in the brain as a response to the implant injury and hampers the effectiveness of the implant treatment. Constant relative micromotion between the mechanically mismatched neural implant and brain ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been a powerful instrument that provides nanoscale imaging of surface features, mainly of rigid metal or ceramic surfaces that can be insulators as well as conductors. Since it has been ...
-
Chemical vapor deposition and functionalization of fluorocarbon-organosilicon copolymer thin films (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)Neural prostheses are micron-scale integrated circuit devices that are under development for the treatment of brain and spinal cord injuries. A key challenge in the fabrication of these silicon- based devices is the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Graphene has been regarded as a good candidate to make a breakthrough in various applications including electronics, sensors and spintronics due to its exceptional physical properties. To realize those practical applications, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Autonomous mini- and microscale devices require the miniaturization of component devices such as on board integrated circuits (ICs) and electrochemical power sources. A paradigm shift to micro/nanostructured 3D geometries ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)This thesis develops a platform for deposition of polymer thin films that can be further tailored by chemical surface modification. First, we explore chemical vapor deposition of functionalized isobenzofuran films using ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)Airborne particles fall into one of three size ranges. The nucleation range consists of nanoparticles created from vapor atom collisions. The decisive parameter for particle size and composition is the supercooling of the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1990)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)The ability to characterize and control cellular responses in vitro has far reaching implications for basic science and applied medical research. For well over 125 years, researchers have studied the behavior of biological ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The main goal of this thesis is to study the coupled interactions between chemically and mechanically characterized materials and cells that are relevant to microvascular physiology and pathology. In particular, the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Chemomechanical coupling in single eukaryotic animal cells is investigated in the con- text of the attached (substratum-adhered) and the suspended (free-floating) states. These dichotomous configurations determine behavioral ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Electrochemical energy conversion and storage devices including solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and lithium ion batteries (LIBs) are enabled by materials known as "non-stoichiometric oxides" that contain large concentrations ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The Lifshitz formulation is a quantum electrodynamic, first principals formulation used to determine van der Waals - London dispersion interactions in the continuum limit. It has many advantages over crude, pairwise potential ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)High optical concentrations without excess heating in a stationary system can be achieved with a luminescent solar concentrator (LSC). Neodymium (Nd) and ytterbium (Yb) are excellent infrared LSC materials: inexpensive, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1945)

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1926)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)Predicting macroscopic properties of materials starting from an atomistic or electronic level description can be a formidable task due to the many orders of magnitude in length and time scales that need to be spanned. A ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Cobalt has become more and more popular in the realms of academia, industry, and media due to its integral role in many of the most commonly-used lithium-ion battery cathodes today. Many issues have been evaluated regarding ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)Graded buffers oflnxGa1-xP on GaP ([Delta]x[lnxGa1-x]P/GaP) can be used to fabricate potentially high performance, epitaxial transparent substrates light-emitting diodes (ETSLEDs ). Practical devices have thus far been ...
