On Lie Theory in the Verlinde Category by Kannan, Arun S.

“…Finally, we classify bilinear forms in the Verlinde category Ver₄⁺ and discuss the associated Witt semi-ring, which is a new algebraic structure. The second perspective is that these categories actually contain the category of supervector spaces, so they must generalize what is already known. …”

Electrodeposition of metal nanostructures for plasmonic sensing by Mueller, Aaron David

“…As this process can produce tall nanostructures, plasmonic modal evolution with height is investigated, along with effects on refractive index sensitivity. Tall v¬-shaped split ring resonator structures were found to have a sensitivity of close to 400 nm/RIU in the optical spectrum, much higher than the theoretical maximum predicted for simple localized resonance.…”

The post-modern Japanese identity of Haruki Murakami's literature. by Ling, Shannon.

“…Regarded as the literati ahead of his contemporaries, his words would come to ring true in the following century, as the concept of identity (and national identity) would rise to the forefront of most literature coming out of East Asia, with the traditions and cultures of these nations challenged by the onset of modernization (or Westernization) into the region. …”

Design of a low-profile wideband spiral antenna by Deng, Wenting

“…The first part of this final year project involves designing a wideband Single-Arm Spiral (SAS) antenna with a small disc backed by a cavityanda ring-shaped AbsorbingMaterial (ABS). By placing a conducting cavity behind an SAS with a disc, the circularly polarized bidirectional beam isconvertedinto unidirectional beam. …”

Fast depth-sensitive fluorescence measurements in turbid media using cone shell configuration by Ong, Yi Hong, Liu, Quan

“…Depth-sensitive fluorescence spectroscopy in a two-layered epithelial tissue phantom was demonstrated using a cone shell configuration implemented by an axicon lens and a fiber assembly including five rings of collection fibers. Each collection fiber ring was located at a different radial distance away from the center, for which fluorescence measurements from all rings showed a larger range of sensitivities to the top and bottom layers compared to the previously reported cone shell configuration. …”
