Multiple prototypes of hyperspectral compressive detection (CD) Raman spectrometers have previously been constructed in the Ben-Amotz lab and have proven to be useful for fast, label-free chemical identification, quantitation and imaging. The CD spectrometer consists of a volume holographic grating (VHG) that linearly disperses the Raman photons into its component wavelengths and all wavelengths are focused onto a digital micromirror devise (DMD). The DMD is an optical modulator that consists of an array of programmable 10μm mirrors that can reflect photons in either +12° or -12° to the incoming light. The DMD is tilted such that the +12° photons go …

The Corrosion Of Carbon Steel Under Deep Geologic Nuclear Waste Disposal Conditions, Shannon L.W. Hill
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
The proposed disposal scenario for high-level nuclear waste (spent fuel) in Canada is emplacement within a sealed, deep geological repository (DGR) located in either granitic rock or sedimentary clay. Disposal is based on a multi-barrier approach, with the primary barrier being a sealed container which could be either dual-walled with a copper shell over an inner carbon steel vessel for granitic rock or a single thick-walled steel container for sedimentary clay. This study focuses on the corrosion behaviour of A516 Gr70 carbon steel as well as the corrosion products formed in a variety of groundwater compositions and concentrations expected within …
