Electrostatic Forces and Molecular Transport in a Nanofountain Probe

Description:

With the advent of a variety of novel nanometer-scale diagnostic techniques such as DNA micro- and nanoarrays, increasing focus has been placed on developing methods to quickly and accurately create these nanometer scale patterns. One promising technique for depositing DNA, proteins, and other liquid molecular "inks" with submicron resolution is...

Electrochemistry of Iron-Modified Estrogen Binding to the Estrogen Receptor Protein

Description:

Small, soluble, self-assembling peptide Aβ-oligomers, known as ADDLs (amyloid-derived diffusible ligands), accumulate in the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) brain as Aβ 12-mers and are thought to contribute to AD neuropathological conditions. Unlike plaques, which were once thought to cause neuronal death due to insoluble amyloid plaque deposits, ADDLs initiate abnormal changes...

Formation of Metal-Semiconductor Axial Nanowire Heterostructures through Controlled Silicidation

Description:

Semiconductor nanowires show promise for application in nanoscale electronics, but the difficulty of forming low-resistance ohmic contacts provides a challenge to their implementation. To improve the electrical performance of lithographically defined nickel contacts, nickel-silicide/ silicon axial nanowire heterostructures were formed by controlled partial silicidation. Prior to annealing, two-terminal silicon nanowire...

Characterization of DNA-Functionalized Surfaces by Fluorescence Microscopy

Description:

In the field of clinical diagnostics, biosensors are used to identify genetic disorders by hybridizing a surface-bound DNA sequence with the patient’s DNA. To further improve biosensor design, two nonlinear optical techniques, sum frequency generation (SFG) and second harmonic generation (SHG), were used to probe the orientation, chirality, and surface...

UV Induced Reaction of Conjugated Styrene Derivatives with H-Passivted Silicon Surfaces

Description:

The formation of organic layers on hydrogen-passivated silicon (HPS) surfaces via (UV) ultraviolet treatment was completed for three styrene derivatives with different conjugated lengths. The styrene molecules were synthesized and characterized using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Layer formation on silicon was then accomplished through...

Synthesis of Fluorescent DNA-Modified Polymer Nanoparticles for Use in a Highly Sensitive DNA Assay,

Description:

Polymer nanoparticles (PNPs) were formed from amphiphilic diblock copolymers consisting of a hydrophilic block with pendant polyethylene glycol tosylate (PEG-OTs) groups and a hydrophobic block with pendant terthiophene (TTT) groups. The resulting PNPs were characterized using dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to determine size, shape, and...

Thermal Behavior of Polystyrene-Silica Nanocomposites

Description:

The formation of covalently grafted polymer brushes on silica (SiO2) nanoparticles was achieved by surface-initiated reversible additionfragmentation chain transfer (si-RAFT) polymerization. RAFT initiator was first attached onto the surface of silica nanoparticles and then examined by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) analysis. From the resulting RAFT initiator-modified SiO2 nanoparticles, polymer chains can...

Interaction of Peptides with Hydroxyapatite

Description:

Bone-related problems have always been a concern in the medical field, particularly how to heal and rebuild bones more rapidly when injuries occur. A path to solving such problems might be to examine the processes when bone develops in nature. This project aims at discovering the chemical reactions that occur...

Preparation and Characterization of Assembled Nanostructures by Peptide Amphiphiles

Description:

The aim of this research is to investigate the pH effect on the assembled nanostructures of peptide amphiphiles (PAs). Controlling the sizes and shapes of these assembled nanostructures is of great importance for their ultimate applications in drug delivery, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine. A complete characterization of these nanostructures...
