Engineering the Properties of Elemental 2D Materials using First-principles Calculations
(2017-12-13)
Our vision is as yet unsurpassed by machines because of the sophisticated representations of objects in our brains. This representation is vastly different from a pixel-based representation used in machine storages. It is ...
Electrochemical Biosensors based on Novel Receptors for Diabetes Management
(2018-01-15)
To address the challenge of accurate, low cost and robust biosensors for diabetes management and early detection of diabetes complications, we have developed novel, robust sensing chemistry (or receptors) for electrochemical ...
Integration of Graphene with Plasmonic Nanostructures for Photodetection in the UV, Visible and IR
Graphene is the thinnest material known till date, composed of a two dimensional (2D) arrangement of carbon atoms in a hexagonal lattice. It has interesting mechanical, electrical and optical properties, such as very high ...
Electric Stimuli as Instructive Cues to Guide Cellular Differentiation on Electrically Conductive Biomaterial Substrates in vitro
(2018-08-10)
Directing differential cellular response by manipulating the physical characteristics of the material is regarded as a key challenge in biomaterial implant design and tissue engineering. In developing various biomaterials, ...
Theoretical and Experimental Study of Three-Dimensional Chiro-Optical Materials
Light-matter interactions at the nanoscale have been widely studied over the past few decades. In particular, the interaction of light with asymmetric nanostructures has harbored the interests of chemists, biologists and ...
Accelerated and Accurate Alignment of Short Reads in High Throughput Next Generation Sequencing [NGS] Platforms
The genome of an organism encompasses the unique set of genetic instructions for every individual in a species. The genome, in totality, guides the course of evolution, development, genetic and epigenetic growth factors ...
Self-referencing Techniques in Optical Label-free Bio-molecular Sensing
Measurement of molecular interactions is essential for fundamental biological studies as well as for the development of health diagnostics devices. Several label-free and labeled techniques to characterize and quantify ...
Nano-Scale Design, Fabrication, and Performance Evaluation of Organic Photovoltaic Devices
Organic photovoltaic devices have evinced interest due to the prospects of integrating strongly absorbing semiconducting polymers in flexible, light weight device platforms with ease of fabrication. However, there are ...
Development of Cu-based Intermetallic Reflector Materials for Concentrated Solar Power Application
The growing demand for energy is an important issue for the existence and development of humankind. In order to reduce the impact of conventional energy sources on the environment, attention should be paid to the development ...
Energy Efficient Flexible Baseband Processing for Mobile and Cognitive Radios
Wireless communication has become an integral part of human life, and one of the dominating applications in today’s world. Mobile communication devices are the largest consumer electronic group in terms of volume. In 2007, ...
