  • Bioengineering Approaches for Environmental Studies

    Fri, Sep 23, 2005 @ 01:00 PM - 02:00 PM

    Sonny Astani Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering

    Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars



    Presenter:Professor Ching-An Peng
    Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science
    University of Southern CaliforniaAbstractResonant acoustic fields used for enhancing gene delivery efficiency will be discussed in the first part of my talk. Another recently developed methodology for the incorporation of virus with quantum dots will be demonstrated as a potential imaging probes for the analysis of intracellular trafficking and cytoskeleton reorganization during virus entry. These bioengineering approaches used in my lab might be applied in the environmental field.

  • Amazing Nanaochemistry and Nanomechanics at Silicon Carbide Surfaces

    Fri, Sep 23, 2005 @ 02:30 PM - 04:00 PM

    Mork Family Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science

    University Calendar


    Presented By:Professor Patrick G. SoukiassianCommissariat a l'Energie Atomique, Saclay and Universite de Paris-Sud, Orsay, FranceABSTRACTSilicon carbide (SiC) is a wide band gap IV-IV compound semiconductor having a strong interest in advanced applications such as high temperature, high power, high frequency electronic devices/sensors and in nanotechnology. Such important issues as hydrogen/oxygen nanochemistry and nanomechanics at hexagonal and cubic SiC surfaces are investigated by synchrotron radiation-based core level and valence band photoemission, atom resolved scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, and infrared absorption. Among some of the key results, i) the first example of H-induced semiconductor surface metallization, ii) the atomic scale interaction of oxygen with the surface and iii) subsequent initial oxide-interface formation, iv) the role of stress in surface organization and in atomic crack formation will be presented and discussed. The finding of H-induced semiconductor metallization surface directly impacts means to develop electrical contacts on wide band-gap chemically passive materials, particularly exciting for interfacing with biological systems, and gives control of surfaces for lubrication, e.g. for nano-mechanical devices.*Refreshments will be served at 2:30**All first year materials science majors are required to attend*
