SCALABLE MICROCRYSTAL MEDIUM FOR STATIC 3D DISPLAY
(2012)
Efficient up-conversion emitters are necessary to generate full color 3D display. Rare-earth, co-doped fluorides that convert diode laser light from near infrared to visible red, green, and blue light by sequential two ...
ISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF NITRATE REDUCING/DENITRIFYING BACTERIA FROM TALLGRASS PRAIRIE SOILS
(2012)
This dissertation addresses the long term impact of crude oil/brine (e.g. salt water) spills on biogeochemical cycling of nitrogen in tallgrass prairie soils. The study sites were prairie soils that were accidently ...
DESIGN AND SYNTHESES OF SUPRAMOLECULAR SCAFFOLDS FOR CATALYSIS AND AQUEOUS MOLECULAR RECOGNITION
(2012)
Organic supramolecular systems can be considered as one of the most advanced tools of physical organic chemistry for catalysis. The main aim of the supramolecular model systems for the study of catalytic processes is to ...
WEAK ANTI-LOCALIZATION STUDIES OF SPIN-ORBIT COUPLING IN N- AND P-TYPE InSb HETEROSTRUCTURES
(2012)
The effects of spin-orbit interactions (SOIs) on transport properties of InSb/AlInSb heterostructures have been studied experimentally. At low temperatures, the quantum interference gives rise to a quantum correction to ...
NEIGHBORHOOD-LEVEL LEARNING TECHNIQUES FOR NONPARAMETRIC SCENE MODELS
(2012)
Scene model based segmentation of video into foreground and background structure has long been an important and ongoing research topic in image processing and computer vision. Segmentation of complex video scenes into ...
Environmental Influences on Past and Future Urban Development in the Arkansas-Red River Basin (USA), 1857-2050
(2012)
Variability in physiography and land management can lead to differences in urban development rates and patterns in space and through time. While traditional studies have focused on contemporary anthropogenic impacts on the ...
ATHLETIC IDENTITY AND HYPERCOMPETITIVENESS: IMPACT ON ATHLETES' ATTITUDES TOWARD PAIN AND SPORT-RELATED INJURY
(2012)
The sporting world often praises and recognizes athletes who display a "fight-through-the-pain" mentality, putting the team and/or individual accolades before their own physical health or risk of further injury. However, ...
NANO INTEGRATED LITHIUM POLYMER ELECTROLYTES BASED ON ANODIC ALUMINUM OXIDE (AAO) TEMPLATES
(2012)
Since their discovery in the 1970s, polymer electrolytes have been actively studied because they have properties important for many device applications. However, even after 40 years, the detailed mechanisms of conductivity ...
Progress Towards Producing and Trapping Cold Nitric Oxide
(2012)
I present the experimental results of a new source of cold molecular production using activated carbon and the design of the necessary apparatus. This new source may eliminate the need for laser ablation loading in buffer ...
The Prevalence of Intimate Partner Violence in Latin America and the Co-occurrence of Physical and Inappropriate Discipline.
(2012)
This study used data from Demographic and Health Surveys to identify risk factors for intimate partner violence (IPV) and to examine the co-occurrence between intimate partner violence and child physical punishment in six ...
