Senior Physics Special Projects

How do I enrol? You must first arrange a supervisor and a project. Once you have reached an agreement with your supervisor, please complete a Special Permission form (available from the Student Support Office in Physics). This must be signed by the Senior Physics Coordinator (Tim Bedding, Room 558, [email protected]) and then taken to the Science Faculty Office (Carslaw) to allow you ...

Oxygen incorporation in Ti2AlC: Tuning of anisotropic conductivity

Numerical Simulation of Plasma-Immersion Ion Implantation on Insulators

In plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII), a high voltage pulsed bias is applied to a substrate to accelerate ions from a surrounding plasma for implantation beneath the surface. This technique is often used to modify the surface properties of materials. For example, the intrinsic stress of thin films can be lowered, resulting in improved adhesion. For conducting samples, the energy of the in...

Force fields for simulating the interaction of surfaces with biological molecules.

The interaction of biomolecules with solid interfaces is of fundamental importance to several emerging biotechnologies such as medical implants, anti-fouling coatings and novel diagnostic devices. Many of these technologies rely on the binding of peptides to a solid surface, but a full understanding of the mechanism of binding, as well as the effect on the conformation of adsorbed peptides, is ...
