Characterization of Two-component Organothiol Mixed Monolayers on Gold and Quantification of Nonspecific Adsorption on Mixed Sam Biosensor Platforms Using Electrochemical Enzyme Immunoassay 

Liu, Huiqing (2007-05-15)
Self-assembled monolayer (SAM) technology provides a simple and useful way to functionalize biosensors. The formation and characterization of SAM monolayers are briefly reviewed in Chapter One. Several selected examples ...

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Thorium, Uranium, and Neptunium Solids 

Sullens, Tyler (2005-08-15)
Hydrothermal synthesis has been utilized to synthesize several compounds involving thorium, uranium, and neptunium. These compounds have one-, two-, and three-dimensional structural typologies. A majority of the compounds ...

Micro-/Nanofabrication in Analytical Chemistry and Temperature Dependent Studies of Underpotential Deposition of Mercury(II) on Au(III) 

Zhang, Lunsheng (2007-05-15)
This dissertation studies three routes to fabricate micro-/nano-sized structures for the purpose of analytical chemistry and the underpotential deposition (UPD) of mercury(II) onto Au(111) electrodes. In Chapter 2, we ...

Self-Assembled Monolayers as Platform for Biosensors 

Wang, Qin (2005-12-15)
In chapter one, self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), the platform for biosensors, were discussed in detail regarding surface pKa, stability, and chemical reactions. Mixed self-assembled monolayers, especially when incorporated ...
