1. Electronic and structural properties of nanoclusters
Abstract : Nanoclusters have gained a huge interest due to their unique properties. They represent an intermediate state between an atom and a solid, which manifests itself in their atomic configurations and electronic structure. READ MORE

2. Components based on optical fibers with internal electrodes
Abstract : The topic of this thesis is development ofdevices fortelecom applications based on poled optical fibers. The focusis on two different specific functions, wavelength conversionand optical switching.Optical switching is demonstrated in a poled optical fiberat telecom wavelengths (~1.55 mm). READ MORE

3. Deciphering Ephrin/Eph signaling pathways in cancer cells using rationally designed ligand nanoclusters
Abstract : The dynamic link between the nanoscale spatial distribution of biomolecules and their functional impact on cellular and downstream biological behaviors has been hypothesized, but only supported by limited evidences. This is mostly due to the lack to methods to fabricate well-defined patterns of biomolecules. READ MORE

4. Synthesis and characterization of nanocarbons as reinforced particles in metal composites
Abstract : In this work, several scientific problems related to high pressure–high temperature (HP–HT) synthesis of new materials using fullerite as a precursor were studied: first, the mechanism of the transformation of C60 crystal into a nano-clustered graphene phase (NGP) at a pressure of 8 GPa; and second, the effect of disorder introduced into C60 crystals by ball milling prior to HP–HT synthesis on the structure and properties of the NGP. A separate set of experiments was devoted to compression of C60 precursor at unexplored before pressure of 25 GPa and elevated temperatures in search for new type of disordered carbon-based materials.

5. Water at surfaces and interfaces from first-principles studies
Abstract : Water is ubiquitous in nature and ordinary to us. However, no matter how common it is, water is unique, mysterious, and has numerous unusual properties, many of which still lack a scientific interpretation. READ MORE
