1. Thin metal films on weakly-interacting substrates : Nanoscale growth dynamics, stress generation, and morphology manipulation
Abstract : Vapor-based growth of thin metal films with controlled morphology on weakly-interacting substrates (WIS), including oxides and van der Waals materials, is essential for the fabrication of multifunctional metal contacts in a wide array of optoelectronic devices. Achieving this entails a great challenge, since weak film/substrate interactions yield a pronounced and uncontrolled 3D morphology. READ MORE

2. Characterization of Amino Acid Transporters in the Brain : Molecular and Functional Studies of Members within the Solute Carrier Families SLC38 and SLC6
Abstract : Solute carriers (SLCs) comprise the largest group of transporters in humans and there are currently 52 SLC families. They are embedded in cellular membranes and transport numerous molecules; defects in many of the genes encoding SLCs have been connected to pathological conditions, and several SLCs are potential drug targets.

3. Microfluidics and AI for single-cell microbiology
Abstract : Most of the biological sciences deal with understanding the relationships between phenotypes and the underlying molecular mechanisms of organisms. This thesis is an engineering, computational, and experimental exercise in expanding the scope and scale of phenotype-genotype mapping techniques in single-cell microbiology using microscopy, microfluidics, and image processing.

4. Nanoplasmonic Sensing for Materials Science
Abstract : With the rising importance of nanoscience and nanotechnology, there is a need for new sensitive and easy-to-use characterization techniques able to follow processes at the nanoscale. In this thesis different aspects of nanoplasmonic sensing for studying materials science processes at the nanoscale are demonstrated and discussed for the following model systems: oxidation/corrosion of Al and Cu and the solid-liquid phase transition of Sn.

5. Crystal Structures in GaAs Nanowires: Growth and Characterization
Abstract : With their nanometer size cross-section and high aspect ratio, semiconducting nanowires have properties that make them promising as building blocks in future electronic and optoelectronic devices. Because of their small size, their optical and electrical properties can differ from their bulk counterparts, and their geometry allows for material combinations not accessible in thin films.
