2DEG enhancement via epilayer stress engineering in AlN/GaN/AlN heterostructure by Patwal, Shashank

“…This was followed by the growth and characterization of AlN/GaN/AlN double heterojunction (DH) HEMT layer structures on semi-insulating 4H-SiC substrates by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy (PA-MBE). The higher thermal conductivities of AlN and 4H-SiC are likely to improve heat dissipation, thus providing greater thermal stability and lesser device deterioration due to self-heating. …”

Development of resistive random access memory for next-generation embedded non-volatile memory application by Sun, Jianxun

“…Good resistive switching has been demonstrated for the device with Pt bottom electrode (BE) in chapter 6. However, the degradation of switching uniformity is observed when Pt is replaced by TiN, which is a conventional fab material. …”

Part I : Peptide functionalized materials for gram-negative bacteria targeted PDT and LPS sensing. Part II : Small peptide and membrane lipid based self-assembled nanostructures fo... by Liu, Fang

“…In part II, my first project is the development of novel drug-loaded nanogels for pH sensitive drug release, which will be described in chapter 3. In our research, the most commonly used model drug doxorubicin (Dox) was conjugated to an Fmoc group protected short peptide through an acid-labile hydrazone-bond to form a peptide-Dox prodrug. …”
