Plasmonic nanostructure on a tapered fiber for chemical detection
(2017)A simple, cost effective technique to manufacture plasmonic nanostructures as a Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) substrate was investigated. The plasmonic structure of gold nanorods was developed on the surface ... -
Simulated accelerated evolution by modeling the rapid fixation of bacteria along an antibiotic gradient
(2020)The work in this thesis makes connections between statistical mechanics and genotype frequencies in population sizes, and how mutation of the bacteria E. coli helps to increase its resistance to the antibiotic ciprofloxacin. ... -
Theoretical study of the folding kinetics of the ultra-fast folding Trp-cage protein
(2006)Native-centric coarse-gained models, termed Ca Go models, have been widely used for computational simulation of small protein to study their folding kinetics and thermodynamics. The limitations of these models come from ...
