Abstract: <p>The typical contrast mechanism employed in multimodal CARS microscopy involves the use of other nonlinear imaging modalities such as two-photon excitation fluorescence (TPEF) microscopy and second harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy to produce a molecule-specific pseudocolor image. In this work, I explore the use of unsupervised multivariate statistical analysis tools such as Principal… more

TWO-DIMENSIONAL CONDUCTIVITY AT LaAlO3/SrTiO3 INTERFACES

Name(s): Creator (cre): Raslan, Amany Khalil, Thesis advisor (ths): Atkinson, Bill, Degree committee member (dgc): Wortis, Rachel, Degree committee member (dgc): Gaspari, Franco, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
Abstract: <p>Experiments have observed a two-dimensional electron gas at the interface of two insulating oxides: strontium titanate (SrTiO<sub>3</sub>) and lanthanum aluminate (LaAlO<sub>3</sub>). These interfaces exhibit metallic, superconducting, and magnetic behaviours, which are strongly affected by impurities. Motivated by experiments, we introduce a simple model in which… more

Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Aqueous and Confined Systems Relevant to the Supercritical Water Cooled Nuclear Reactor

Name(s): Creator (cre): Kallikragas, Dimitrios Theofanis, Thesis advisor (ths): Svishchev, Igor M, Degree committee member (dgc): Atkinson, Bill, Degree committee member (dgc): Tremiane, Peter, Degree committee member (dgc): Chkrebtii, Anatoli, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
Abstract: <p>Supercritical water (SCW) is the intended heat transfer fluid and potential neutron moderator in the proposed GEN-IV Supercritical Water Cooled Reactor (SCWR). The oxidative environment poses challenges in choosing appropriate design materials, and the</p><p>behaviour of SCW within crevices of the passivation layer is needed for developing a corrosion control strategy to… more

Heavy Rydberg Photo-dissociation Cross-section Calculations and Experimental Progress Towards Cold Collisions in Lithium

Name(s): Creator (cre): Ugray, Lisa Madeleine, Thesis advisor (ths): Shiell, Ralph C, Degree committee member (dgc): Shiell, Ralph C, Degree committee member (dgc): Slepkov, Aaron, Degree committee member (dgc): Gaspari, Franco, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
Abstract: <p>This thesis is divided into two parts, each of which supports constructing and using a lithium magneto-optical trap for cold collision studies:</p><p>Part I</p><p>One outgoing channel of interest from cold collisions is the production of ion pairs. We describe an effective method for calculating bound-to-continuum cross-sections for charged binary systems by… more
