Low-Temperature Germanium Waveguides for Mid-Infrared Sensing Applications
… integrated devices that operate in the mid-infrared (mid-IR) wavelength range (2.5-12 µm) are used for sensing the fundamental absorption bands in a variety of molecules. Germanium (Ge) is commonly used for photodetection in the nearinfrared (near-IR) wavelength range of 1.2-1.6 µm due to …

Vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth of lead chalcogenide thin films for infrared sensing applications
Infrared sensors are used in a variety of applications, from gas and moisture analysers, to human body detection to spectrophotometers. Available IR technology falls on two ends of the spectrum: state-of-art photon detectors are high-quality but expensive and cumbersome due to the need for …

Infrared-to-visible upconversion in hybrid thin films of colloidal nanocrystals and organic molecules
… higher-energy photon. Upconversion that turns infrared photons into visible ones is particularly useful, having potential applications in photovoltaics, infrared sensing, and biological imaging. In this thesis, I present a solid-state thin-film device that converts infrared photons with …

Density, Movements, and Habitat Use of White-Tailed Deer at Sand Lake National Wildlife Refuge, South Dakota
… rate was estimated (88.2%) in sample areas using infrared sensing. A flight transect method that was developed in 1993 to estimate deer density was used in 1994 to assess temporal variation and influence of a snow background on deer density estimates. A comparison of deer density estimates using …

Traffic estimation, sensing, and control in work zone environments
… systems from the aspects of traffic estimation, sensing, and control. To understand the impact of the sensing technologies and estimation algorithms, several hundred combinations of sensor network configurations and traffic estimation algorithms are assessed in a traffic micro simulator …

Advanced flow lithography and barcoded particles
… magnetic beads, tri-layered structures or near-infrared sensing materials. As the first advanced barcoded particles, we present magnetic barcoded hydrogel particles that had led to practical applications in the efficient orientation and separation of the barcoded particles. Also, we show …

Characterization of gold black and its application in un-cooled infrared detectors
… electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and fore-probe electrical measurements. A significant decrease in electrical resistance in as deposited coating was found to be consistent with changes in the granular structure with aging at room temperature. Electrical …
