Lithium niobate has a number of attractive piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties that have been exploited for several different applications. The main purpose of this work is to produce lithium niobate thin films on ...

This dissertation analyzes the feasibility and advantages of molecular functionalization of scanning tunneling microscope (STM) probes with buckminsterfullerenes. The C$\sb{60}$ molecules are adsorbed onto the tunneling ...

The Lateral Superior Olive (LSO) is believed to be involved in encoding high frequency localization information based on interaural level difference (ILD) and interaural time difference (ITD) cues. Details of how this ...

A mathematical model of the dynamic interaction between the ventricles over a complete cardiac cycle is presented. The ventricles are modeled as a three-walled system, each of which is individually characterized by a ...
