Development of intersubband terahertz lasers using multiple quantum well structures
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
This thesis describes an experimental and theoretical effort in developing intersubband THz lasers using multiple-quantum-well structures. Scarcity of compact solid state sources in this frequency range, and to demonstrate ...
Utility assessment based on individualized patient perspectives
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
The feasibility of using the terminology of the individual patient to capture and express the individual's particular, perhaps unique, value system for healthiness is explored as a means to evaluate the quality of life. ...
Characterizing and recognizing spoken corrections in human-computer dialog
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
Miscommunication in human-computer spoken language systems is unavoidable. Recognition failures on the part of the system necessitate frequent correction attempts by the user. Unfortunately and counterintuitively, users' ...
A study of system-induced instabilities in forced-convection flows with subcooled boiling.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1965)
Characterization of air-sea gas exchange processes and dissolved gas/ice interactions using noble gasses
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
Multi-echo methods for fast MRI and MRS of ³¹P containing compounds
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997)
Fuel preheating in free-burning fires
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1967)
Incompressible journal bearings with combined hydrostatic-hydrodynamic action.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1965)
Genetic control of death in Chinese Hamster Ovary cultures
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
One of the main problems in mammalian cell culture systems, including Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cultures, is the inability to maintain viability of these cultures over extended periods of time. This inability translates ...
Regulation of integrin-mediated linkages during cell migration
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
The objective of this study was to determine how integrin adhesion interact with both cytoskeletal elements and ligands to determine cell migration speed. An understanding of these parameters will aid in developing methods ...
