Anodic films on Bismuth
… growth and defect structure of anodic oxide films formed on bismuth in aqueous electrolytes. The early stages in the formation of continuous anodic layers of bismuth oxide were studied using the technique of cyclic voltammetry. During this period, the oxide, Bi2O3, covered the surface by a …

Psychosis in Films: An Analysis of Stigma and the Portrayal in Feature Films
<p>Films have a major impact on popular beliefs in American society. The images and ideas in movies are absorbed without difficulties into the popular imagination. This effect can leave long-lasting impressions. Movies can inspire people to raise awareness of various issues such as mental illness …

Transnational Film Practices: Hollywood Remakes of South Korean Films and Preference on Genre Films
… of South Korean male melodramas and horror films to address transnational film practices within the context of the sudden acceptance of South Korean films in Hollywood. Such acceptance began with the 2006 remake, The Lake House . Despite the small number of South Korean films being remade in …

Dewetting of thin solid films
This dissertation is devoted to the mathematical study of solid state dewetting and deals with various mathematical topics such as phase field modeling, the derivation of corresponding sharp interface limits, existence of solutions, numerical simulations and linear stability analysis of the …

Outlaws: Individual Myths in Films
… significant historic figures’ acts, but also films. These films present their deeds with much or less historical truth. Films made at the beginning and end of the 20th century reflect the legendary figures in different ways. The essay compares these movies examining these representations and …

Writing formations in Shakespearean films
… make internally consistent interpretations of films, but are also able to discount the theoretical criticisms of the rival paradigm. Attempts to debate and transcend these divisions have been unsuccessful. This thesis contributes to this gap in knowledge by arguing that both academic theories …

Hydrophobic Forces in Wetting Films
… it difficult to model the rupture of the wetting films using the DLVO theory. In the present work, we have measured the kinetics of film thinning between air bubble and flat surfaces of gold and silica. The former was hydrophobized by ex-site potassium amyl xanthate, while the latter by in-site …

Corrosion susceptibility of thin films
… grain size on the corrosion behavior of Al thin films. In general, as the film thickness is increased, the overall resistance to corrosion improves. The increase in corrosion resistance is attributed to an enlargement of the grain size, a result of the thin-film deposition process. As the grain …

Instability of electrified viscous films
We examine the stability of a thin two-dimensional liquid film with a regular electric field applied in a direction parallel to an initially flat bounding fluid interface. We study the distinct physical effects of surface tension, van der Waals and electrically induced forces for a viscous …

Photodetection using ultrathin metal films
… resonant absorption in ultrathin metal films (< 20 nm). Our approach paves the way to implement scalable, lithography-free, and low-cost silicon-based optoelectronics beyond the material bandgap. Light absorption in metal films can excite hot carriers, which are useful for …

Student Teaching: Single Concept Films
… a series of single-concept 8mm motion picture films designed to provide a media to clarify, review, and reinforce such understandings.

Vapour Films on Liquid Metals
… cause of these explosions. In this work, vapour films are examined to provide information relevant to vapour explosion phenomena. Experiments have been performed to gain information on film boiling heat transfer from solid and liquid metals to coolants and to examine the physical characteristics …

Co2MnSi Heusler alloy thin films
… was grown on a-plane sapphire and stoichiometric films were single phase and highly (110) textured, without the use of a seed layer. They exhibited the bulk value of the saturation magnetisation, Ms and films grown at the highest deposition temperature (715 K) showed the lowest resistivity (47 …
