Sublimation growth of ALN bulk crystals and high-speed CVD growth of SiC epilayers, and their characterization

Lu, Peng (Kansas State University, 2006)

The effects of process conditions on the material’s properties were investigated for the sublimation growth of aluminum nitride and the epitaxial growth of silicon carbide. Since the mid 1990’s, these semiconductors have ...
Successful aging conceptualization and long-term care: a comparative content analysis of brochure advertising perspective

John, Nicole L. (Kansas State University, 2010)

This study provided an exploratory qualitative analysis of printed brochures to evaluate the conceptualization of successful aging. Data was collected from a sample of 39 printed brochures derived from Kansas Department ...
The Succession of a Contaminated Floodplain: Reclaiming the West Bottoms

King, Jessica (Kansas State University, 2013)

Kansas City is expecting a 25% growth in population by 2050. This design proposal promotes West Bottoms as a potential area to house some of the new population, and more importantly supply a live and work community for ...
Suns: a new class of facet defining structures for the node packing polyhedron

Irvine, Chelsea Nicole (Kansas State University, 2012)

Graph theory is a widely researched topic. A graph contains a set of nodes and a set of edges. The nodes often represent resources such as machines, employees, or plant locations. Each edge represents the relationship ...
Supply control and product differentiation effects of European protected designations of origin cheeses

Sanchez, Deborah S. (Kansas State University, 2008)

The purpose of this research was to analyze the impact of supply control variables such as market share; DO/PGI cheese hedonic quality attributes such as country of origin, type of milk, and age; and the price of a substitute ...
Suppression of cyclicity and estrous behavior in mares through immunization against a recombinant gonadotropin-releasing hormone antigen

Spiker, Carlie Rae (Kansas State University, 2009)

Mares in estrus can exhibit erratic and fractious behavior that may adversely affect their ease of handling. Current treatments for suppression of estrus in the mare include an oral progestin, Regu-mate® (Hodgson et al., ...
Suppression of phospholipase D[Alpha] in soybean

Lee, Jung Hoon (Kansas State University, 2008)

Demands on value-added crops have been raised to improve agricultural, industrial, and economical value. Currently, transgene application is one of most effective methods to satisfy these demands. Success in herbicide-resistant ...
Supramolecular interactions from small-molecule selectivity to molecular capsules

Rajbanshi, Arbin (Kansas State University, 2010)

Supramolecular synthesis relies upon the creative and rational use of the common intermolecular forces and a proper understanding of these forces is critical for design and assembly of molecular building blocks into extended ...
Supramolecular reagents for the construction of predictable architectures

Smith, Michelle M. (Kansas State University, 2008)

Tailoring the properties of a bulk material such as a pharmaceutical compound, through non-covalent interactions, could lead to the enhancement of its physical properties without chemically modifying the individual molecules ...
Surface science experiments involving the atomic force microscope

McBride, Sean P. (Kansas State University, 2012)

Three diverse first author surfaces science experiments conducted by Sean P. McBride 1-3 will be discussed in detail and supplemented by secondary co-author projects by Sean P. McBride, 4-7 all of which rely heavily ...
Surface structure study of imidazolium based ionic liquid

Kadel, Rajesh (Kansas State University, 2008)

Interest in the properties of room-temperature ionic liquids is rapidly expanding. Although there have been numerous studies concerning their preparation, their use as a reaction medium and their physical properties, Ionic ...
Surface studies of potentially corrosion resistant thin film coatings on chromium and type 316L stainless steel

Johnson, Stephanie Lee (Kansas State University, 2006)

This work is a detailed study of the interaction between two phosphorous-containing acids and the metals chromium and 316L stainless steel. The objective of this work is to investigate the formation of unique thin films ...
Surface studies of thin films with a focus on potentially protective films on vanadium

Asunskis, Daniel John (Kansas State University, 2005)

Thin films can be created on the surface of a metal, protecting it from oxidation and corrosion. Phosphate films have historically been a common choice for these corrosion resistant films. In this dissertation, the oxidation ...
Surface water and sediment geochemistry in understanding mobility of nitrates in mesic Kansas grassland

Eke, O.C. Enyinna (Kansas State University, 2012)

To understand ambient nitrate dynamics in an unmanaged grassland environment, the stable isotope chemistry of various substrates at the Konza Prairie Biological Station were studied. Sediments consisted of alluvium, loess ...
Survey of business management factors associated with mixed animal veterinary practice size and growth

Brusk, Amy M. (Kansas State University, 2009)

Recent literature regarding potential shortages of food animal veterinarians has sparked interest in how to improve economic sustainability in this profession. Business management practices influence profitability, but ...
Survey of Ehrlichia and Anaplasma species in white tailed deer and in ticks by real-time RT-PCR/PCR and DNA sequencing analysis

Katragadda, Chakravarthy (Kansas State University, 2011)

Ehrlichia and Anaplasma species are rickettsial organisms which infect a variety of mammalian species. The organisms are transmitted from ticks and are maintained in reservoir hosts. Several pathogens have been identified ...
