Consumable Process Development For Chemical Mechanical Planarization Of Bit Patterned Media For Magnetic Storage Fabrication, Joseph T. Bonivel Jr. Oct 2010

Consumable Process Development For Chemical Mechanical Planarization Of Bit Patterned Media For Magnetic Storage Fabrication, Joseph T. Bonivel Jr.

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

As the superparamagnetic limit is reached, the magnetic storage industry looks to circumvent the barrier by implementing patterned media (PM) as a viable means to store and access data. Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is a semiconductor fabrication technique used to planarize surfaces and is investigated as a method to ensure that the PM is polished to surface roughness parameters that allow the magnetic read/write head to move seamlessly across the PM. Results from this research have implications in feasibility studies of utilizing CMP as the main planarization technique for PM fabrication. Benchmark data on the output parameters of the CMP …


Capillary Self-Assembly And Its Application To Thermoelectric Coolers, James K. Tuckerman Oct 2010

Capillary Self-Assembly And Its Application To Thermoelectric Coolers, James K. Tuckerman

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The thermoelectric effect was discovered well over a century ago, yet performance has not shown improvement until recent years. Prior work has shown that the thermoelectric effect can be enhanced by the use of microscale pieces of thermoelectric material. Conventional assembly techniques are inadequate to deal with parts of this size, making it necessary to find a suitable alternative before these devices can be made economically. Capillary self-assembly is a promising alternative to conventional techniques. This method employs the use of preparing substrates with areas of favorable surface tension to place and align parts. Still, many obstacles have to be …


Modeling-Free Bounds On Nonrenormalizable Isotropic Lorentz And Cpt Violation In Qed, Brett David Altschul Oct 2010

Modeling-Free Bounds On Nonrenormalizable Isotropic Lorentz And Cpt Violation In Qed, Brett David Altschul

Faculty Publications

The strongest bounds on some forms of Lorentz and CPT violation come from astrophysical data, and placing such bounds may require understanding and modeling distant sources of radiation. However, it is also desirable to have bounds that do not rely on these kinds of detailed models. Bounds that do not rely on any modeling of astrophysical objects may be derived both from laboratory experiments and certain kinds of astrophysical observations. The strongest such bounds on isotropic modifications of electron, positron, and photon dispersion relations of the form E^2 = p^2 + m^ 2 + epsilon p^3 come from data on …


Synthesis Of An Ortho-Triazacyclophane: N,N',N''-Trimethyltribenzo-1,4,7-Triazacyclononatriene, Andria M. Panagopoulos, Matthias Zeller, Daniel P. Becker Oct 2010

Synthesis Of An Ortho-Triazacyclophane: N,N',N''-Trimethyltribenzo-1,4,7-Triazacyclononatriene, Andria M. Panagopoulos, Matthias Zeller, Daniel P. Becker

Chemistry: Faculty Publications and Other Works

N,N',N''-Trimethyltribenzo-1,4,7-triazacyclononatriene has been synthesized via sequential palladium-catalyzed Buchwald-Hartwig N-arylation reactions affording the 9-membered triaza o-cyclophane in 35% overall yield. An X-ray crystal structure shows the new cyclophane to have a C(2)-symmetric saddle conformation, as compared to the crown conformation exhibited by the related carbocyclic cyclotriveratrylene (CTV).


Pre-Service Physics Teachers And Physics Education Research, David Rosengrant Oct 2010

Pre-Service Physics Teachers And Physics Education Research, David Rosengrant

Faculty Articles

Training pre-service teachers requires, among other things, content knowledge, pedagogical skills and pedagogical content knowledge. Teacher preparation programs have little, if any spare time to add more courses/activities to their program. However, I argue in this paper that we, as educators, must enhance the amount of physics education research in our pre-service physics teacher training programs. In this study, I analyze the results of two different types of exposure to physics education research (PER) from two different groups of pre-service physics teachers in our masters of arts and teaching program. The preliminary results show, for example that the PER helped …


Foundations For Dynamic Loads, Vijay K. Puri, Shamsher Prakash Oct 2010

Foundations For Dynamic Loads, Vijay K. Puri, Shamsher Prakash

Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

Design of foundations in earthquake prone areas needs special considerations. Shallow foundations may experience a reduction in bearing capacity and increase in settlement and tilt due to seismic loading. the reduction in bearing capacity depends on the nature and type of soil and ground acceleration parameters. in the case of piles, the soil-pile behavior under earthquake loading is generally nonlinear. the nonlinearity must be accounted for by defining soil-pile stiffness in terms of strain dependent soil modulus. a comparison of observed and predicted pile behavior under dynamic loads has attracted the attention of several investigators. the lateral dynamic pile response …


Characterization Of Pollen Particles Using Lidar, Leda Sox Oct 2010

Characterization Of Pollen Particles Using Lidar, Leda Sox

Graduate Student Posters

We have observed pollen in the local troposphere using the depolarization capabilities of a LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) system. The polarization characteristics of the received LIDAR signal, along with supplemental pollen forecast data, allowed me to characterize the shape of the pollen particles.

Measuring Airport Efficiency With Fixed Asset Utilization To Minimize Airport Delays, Scott D. Widener Oct 2010

Measuring Airport Efficiency With Fixed Asset Utilization To Minimize Airport Delays, Scott D. Widener

Open Access Dissertations

Deregulation of the airlines in the United States spawned a free-for-all system which led to a variety of agents within the aviation system all seeking to optimize their own piece of the aviation system, and the net result was that the aviation system itself was not optimized in aggregate, frequently resulting in delays. Research on the efficiency of the system has likewise focused on the individual agents, primarily focusing on the municipalities in an economic context, and largely ignoring the consumer. This paper develops the case for a systemic efficiency measurement which incorporates the interests of the airlines and the …

A Historical Analysis Of How Preach My Gospel Came To Be, Benjamin H. White Oct 2010

A Historical Analysis Of How Preach My Gospel Came To Be, Benjamin H. White

Theses and Dissertations

Missionary work is one of the most important tasks undertaken by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Spreading the gospel is at the heart of the Savior's message to his apostles shortly before his ascension into heaven, "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost," (Matt. 28:19). Full time missionaries of the Church are charged with teaching Christ's message. The questions of what to teach and how to teach it have led to four sets of formal missionary discussions published by the …
