Interaction of amphiphilic nanoparticles with structurally perturbed lipid membranes
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Understanding the interactions between nanoparticles and lipid membranes is important for applications such as drug delivery and membrane-protein mimetics. Perturbations such as area asymmetry and lateral tension affect ... -
Sulfurizing and selenizing metal films in ultra-high vacuum by hydride gas kinetic control
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)Molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) is an important, well-established method for creation of thin films. The addition of gaseous sources of hydrogen sulfide and hydrogen selenide is not currently a well-documented or common ... -
Mechanical reinforcement of hydrogels via bio-inspired mineralization
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)Nanocomposites made of polymer networks and mineral particles lend great mechanical integrity to biological materials. This study aims to imitate these natural materials by creating a hydrogel mineralized with magnetite ...
