    • Atomic Scale Details of Defect-Boundary Interactions 
      Chen, Di (2014-12-18)
      The study is aimed to understand atomic scale details of defect-boundary interactions, which are critical to develop radiation tolerant fuel cladding materials for harsher neutron environments. By means of molecular dynamics ...
    • CFT Correlators and Analytics 
      Guha, Sunny (2020-07-07)
      Analytic methods to solve conformal field theories (CFT) have yielded a lot of mileage in recent years. This dissertation builds up on these analytical techniques (lightcone methods and inversion formulas) and extends them ...
    • Electrons and phonons at semiconductor surfaces 
      Ren, Shang-Fen (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)
      This dissertation reports four theoretical studies of electrons and phonons at nonideal semiconductor surfaces--i.e., surfaces containing defects and surfaces exhibiting geometrical reconstruction of the atoms. These studies ...
    • Spectroscopic studies of refractory and dielectric thin films 
      Truong, Charles Man (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)
      This work demonstrated the application of the techniques and methodology of surface science to investigate the mechanisms of thin film deposition processes on solid surfaces. The synthesis of boron nitride (BN) thin films ...
