Thermodynamics and fluctuations far from equilibrium Thermodynamics and fluctuations far from equilibrium Ross, John This work deals with the formulation of the thermodynamics of chemical and other systems far from equilibrium, including connections to fluctuations. It contains applications to non-equilibrium stati… OL16692348W
Colloidal Dispersions Under Slit-Pore Confinement Colloidal Dispersions Under Slit-Pore Confinement Yan Zeng <p>This dissertation contributes to the understanding of fundamental issues in the highly interdisciplinary field of colloidal science. Beyond colloid science, the system also serves as a model for s… OL19835284W
Inorganic Nanoarchitectures by Organic Self-Assembly Inorganic Nanoarchitectures by Organic Self-Assembly Stefan Guldin Macromolecular self-assembly - driven by weak, non-covalent, intermolecular forces - is a common principle of structure formation in natural and synthetic organic materials. The variability in materi… OL19857809W
Liquid Crystalline Semiconductors Liquid Crystalline Semiconductors Richard J. Bushby <p>This is an exciting stage in the development of organic electronics. It is no longer an area of purely academic interest as increasingly real applications are being developed, some of which are be… OL19884279W
Micro and Nano Flow Systems for Bioanalysis Micro and Nano Flow Systems for Bioanalysis Michael W. Collins <p><b><i>Micro and Nano Flow Systems for Bioanalysis</i></b> addresses the latest developments in biomedical engineering at very small scales.
