• Investigation of solution-phase and on-chip binding of C-reactive proteins and antibodies 

  Noonan, Ethel (University College Cork, 2014)

  Gold nanoparticles can self-assemble into nanostructures in the presence of suitable linker molecules. The self-assembly of gold nanoparticles functionalized with C-reactive protein (CRP) antibodies in the presence of CRP ...
• Sensing at nanostructures for agri-food and enviromental applications 

  Creedon, Niamh (University College Cork, 2018)

  With a predicted population increase of 2.3 billion people, by 2050, agricultural productivity must be vastly improved and made sustainable. Globally, agriculture must deliver a 60% increase in food production to cope with ...
• Correlated electron transport across atomic and molecular tunnel junctions 

  McDermott, Shane (University College Cork, 2018)

  As transistors continue to miniaturise the importance of describing electronics on an atomic scale increases. A molecular junction consists of a molecule connected to to metal electrodes via linker molecules and may be ...
• Nanostructure materials based supercapattery for next generation pacemaker 

  Shao, Han (University College Cork, 2018)

  With the rapid development of medical technology, implantable devices have been invented and widely used in many applications such as physiological monitoring, localized drug delivery, and biosensors. The artificial cardiac ...
• An evaluation of some commercially-available thin TiO2 films and TiO2 films grown by atomic layer deposition for potential photocatalytic applications 

  Manley, Harry (University College Cork, 2018)

  Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) was utilized to synthesize nominally undoped titanium dioxide (TiO2) and a range of doped TiO2 films (Ti1-xO2:Mx) on quartz substrates, separately accommodating aluminium, gallium, hafnium, ...
