Spatial confinement of metallodielectric eutectic alloys and related outreach curriculum studies
… for increased female engagement in STEM fields. Spatial Confinement of Metallodielectric Eutectic Alloys There is a large drive to develop new fabrication techniques for metamaterials; a subclass of materials with unique structure-driven properties that are not found in nature. Traditional …

The effects of spatial confinement and oxygen stoichiometry on complex metal oxides
… applications. Novel phenomena emerge by spatial confinement. Stoichiometry can have more profound effect on spatially confined materials than on the bulk. The purpose of the thesis is to explore and understand the spatial confinement and oxygen stoichiometry effect on complex metal oxides …

Molecular Plasmonics: Graphene Plasmons in the Picoscale Limit
… to far-infrared that are both electrically and spatially tunable. Graphene has been shown to enable greater spatial confinement of the plasmon and fewer losses than typical noble metals. Reduced-dimensional graphene structures, including nanoribbons, nanodisks, and other allotropes including …

PROBING BAND MAGNETISM IN DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS: ENERGY, SPIN AND TIME-RESOLVED STUDIES
… bands and to give insight into the effects of spatial confinement on the spin degree of freedom.

Magnetic domain formation in La1-xSrxMnO3 nanowires studied with resonant soft x-ray scattering
… Therefore, it is meaningful to study how the spatial confinement contributes towards magnetic domain formation. In particular, how its phase transition differs from that of the bulk, how magnetization density distributes inside the nanowires, and what the domain sizes are inside the nanowires. …

Quantum-confined Inorganic-organic Lead Halide Perovskite
… various applications. We then investigate the confinement effect of the nanoporous GaN on MAPbBr3 perovskite via transient photoluminescence and transient absorption characterisation. The spatial confinement leads to enhanced charge carriers interaction, revealing as a blue shift in …

Dynamics of Nanoparticles in Complex Media
… media is studied to separate the effects of confinement mediated by macromolecules and by geometric obstacles on diffusion of nanoparticles. Diffusive mobility decreases as nanoparticles are increasingly hindered by spatial confinement due to hydrodynamic interactions with the porous medium. …

Biophysical Dynamics Of Rgs-Lov Proteins As Systems For Light-Induced Membrane Recruitment
… of signaling magnitude, contrast, and spatial confinement – such as the nonlinearity introduced by finite membrane-binding sites, outsized role of rebinding kinetics, and impact of excitation volume on the signaling impulse response. By capturing both intrinsic biophysical contributions …

Microfluidic Methods for Investigating Cell Migration and Cell Mechanics
… as the migration strategy adopted by the cell. Spatial confinement induced an altered arrangement of the acto-myosin cytoskeleton and microtubules. Moreover, the spatial constraint resulted in a simplified, mono-dimensional migration, characterised by constant average speed. Additionally, some …

Liminal Boundaries and Vulnerabilities to Radicalisation in the Context of Securitisation of Migration
… arises from the practice of the interminable spatial confinement of refugees in developing countries that has resulted in what is technically known as Protracted Refugee Situations (PRS). The second expression is the onshore and offshore immigration detention system in Western countries. The …

In operando SEM for the accelerated exploration of nanomaterials and their scalable device integration
… capillaries with opening diameters of ~µms. The spatial confinement of gas fluxes is studied through test particle Monte Carlo simulations and verified experimentally through the localised thermal oxidation of nickel films. The ESEM is subsequently applied to study two low-dimensional nanoscale …

SEX DIFFERENCES IN GENE EXPRESSION AND PAIN-RELATED BEHAVIORS IN A PRECLINICAL MODEL OF MIGRAINE
… of distance traveled, bouts of low mobility, and spatial confinement. Both males and females experienced allodynia following exposure to the inflammatory mixture. Moreover, females displayed a higher baseline gene expression of CGRP and lower baseline gene expression of RAMP1, CLR, and RCP in the …
