Electrophoresis is one of the most powerful tools used to separate biological molecules by size in a supporting medium under the influence of an electric field. Pluronic F127 gel, introduced as a new sieving medium for electrophoresis in...
Elemental chromium is an itinerant, antiferromagnet with an incommensurate spin and charge density wave structure below 311 kelvin. The Fermi surface in this state is a direct result of the three dimensional nesting of large portions of...
We have developed a method for rapid, massively-parallel assembly and alignment of single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) on a solid-state substrate. The results opened the possibility of production of SWCNT-based integrated circuits. In...
This dissertation describes the synthesis and characterization of two new compounds that are among the most studied materials in solid state chemistry over the past eight or so years. The compounds investigated are [Mn12O12(CH3COO)16(H2O...
Nuclear magnetic resonance measurements are reported for two systems: La1-xSrxCoO3 and La2−xSrxCuO4. The local nature of NMR finds local order at temperatures well above the bulk phase transitions of these compounds. This demonstrates...
In this dissertation, the use of on-chip superconducting (SC) resonators as a probe of spin-photon interactions as well as other superconducting phenomena will be presented. In particular, coherent Rabi oscillations are demonstrated for...
The narrow band gap semiconductor iron antimonide, FeSb2, has been grown as bulk single crystals, and investigated for its electronic and magnetic properties at low temperatures. The electronic behavior of FeSb2 is associated with strong...
Since their discovery in 1991, carbon nanotubes have undergone intensive research. The single-walled carbon nanotube, or SWNT, has a unique electronic structure. According to their chirality, they can be either metallic or semiconductors...
In order to obtain an increased through-thickness thermal conductivity in carbon fiber reinforced composites, a novel method using heterogeneously structured resin with conductive filler was studied. Samples were produced using an...
Several models for materials of much current interest in condensed matter physics have been numerically studied, using unbiased methods, including Monte Carlo simulations and exact treatment of the fermionic trace at finite temperature....
Fiber-reinforced composites are becoming more popular due to their high strength to weight ratio, making them a suitable replacement for traditional metals for lightweight applications. However, for applications where electro...
Magnetotransport and resistance noise have been studied in high quality singlecrystals of La2Cu1−xLixO4 and La2−xSrxCuO4 with x=0.03. The detailed measurements are performed at temperatures ranging from 0.03 to 190K and in magnetic...
We developed an on-chip SQUID (Superconducting Quantum Interference Device) measurement technique to study spin dynamics in Single Molecular Magnets (SMMs) and other spin systems. SMMs systems are thought as potential qubit candidates, ...
Electrical insulators provide the opportunity to study the effects of magnetic interactions in the absence of conduction electrons. Since about ten years ago, experiments on a few insulating dimerized antiferromagnets have shown a low...
LnBaCo2O5.5 (Ln=Gd, Eu) and Sr3Ru2O7 are examples of weakly magnetic systems of 3d and 4d transition metal oxides, respectively. The former is nonmetallic and exhibits magnetic properties of two sublattice magnetic systems with an in...
