Surface Characterization Studies of Carbon Materials: SS-DNA, SWCNT, Graphene, HOPG
Online Presentations | 16 Feb 2010 | Contributor(s):: Dmitry Zemlyanov
In this presentation examples of surface characterization studies of carbon specimens will be presented. (1) In particularly, the systematic XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) characterization of graphene grown on the SiC surface will be reported. This work demonstrates a use for XPS to...

[Illinois] CPLC Seminar Series: Living Cell Studies Assisted by Nanoengineering Surfaces
Online Presentations | 26 Nov 2012 | Contributor(s):: Logan Liu
It is known that living cells interact with their micro and nanoscale environments. We created a variety of nanoengineered surfaces which can interact with living cells grown on top. Two particular examples will be demonstrated. The first one is ultrasensitive 3D confocal fluorescence microscopy...

[Illinois] ECE 416 Avidin-Biotin and Surface Functionalization I
Online Presentations | 08 May 2013 | Contributor(s):: Brian Cunningham
In this lecture, we start off by taking a look at X-Ray Crystallography and how it is used to understand how biomolecules binding works. The x-ray data is processed by computer algorithms to determine coordinates of all atoms in...
