Packaging and interconnection of a black-lit CCD sensor device
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997)This paper describes the engineering and development of a process to electrically and mechanically bond a large area, backlit charge-coupled device (CCD) sensor to a metallized substrate, using a materials system compatible ... -
Packaging for a drug delivery microelectromechanical system
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Local drug delivery is a fast expanding field, and has been a center of attention for researchers in medicine in the last decade. Its advantages over systemic drug delivery are clear in cancer therapy, with localized tumors. ... -
Packaging solution for VLSI electronic photonic chips
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)As the demand of information capacity grows, the adoption of optical technology will increase. The issue of resistance and capacitance is limiting the electronic transmission bandwidth while fiber optic delivers data at ... -

Particle generation in a chemical vapor deposition/plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition interlayer dielectric tool
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)The interlayer dielectric plays an important role in multilevel integration. Material choice, processing, and contamination greatly impact the performance of the layer. In this study, particle generation, deposition, and ... -
Particle sensors based on amplified quenching of conjugated polymers for biosensing applications
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Conjugated polymers (CP)s display unique material properties that allow for implementation as sensors. For sensors to operate in complex biological environments, it is important to address the issues of sensitivity and ... -
Percolation and homogenization theories for heterogeneous materials
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Most materials produced by Nature and by human beings are heterogeneous. They contain domains of different states, structures, compositions, or material phases. How these different domains are distributed in space, or in ... -
Percolation behavior of diffusionally evolved two-phase systems simulated using phase field methods
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Percolation is an important phenomenon that dramatically affects the properties of many multi-phase materials. As such, significant prior work has been done to investigate the percolation threshold and critical scaling ... -
Performance and mechanism of emulsion separation using electrospun fiber membranes
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)The compositions of oil-in-water emulsions encountered in industrial processes vary widely depending on their sources. This variety creates challenges for the application of membrane-based separation. Electrospun fiber ... -

Perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in ion beam sputtered Co/Ni multilayers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Co/Ni multilayers display perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and have applications in magnetic devices that could lead to a large increase in the density of magnetic storage. Co/Ni 10-(2 Å Co/ 8Å Ni) and 10-(2 Å Co/ 4 Å Ni) ... -
PH-gated porosity and reversible swelling transitions in polyelectrolyte multilayers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)This thesis explores the design of novel pH-responsive polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) films. The discoveries of discontinuous pH-induced swelling transitions and concomitant conformational memory effects as well as ... -
pH-sensitive resist materials for combined photolithographic patterning of proteins and fluid lipid bilayers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Photolithography of a pH-sensitive photoresist polymer was performed to pattern both lipid bilayers and proteins onto the same surface. The motivation behind this was to create a substrate mimicking an array of antigen- ... -
Phase behavior and phase transformation kinetics during electrochemical cycling of lithium transition metal olivine compounds
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Olivine LiMPO4 (M = Fe, Mn, Co, Ni) compounds have received most attention from the battery research community as the cathodes for Li-ion batteries because of several advantages, including a high theoretical capacity, 170 ... -
