Superconducting Microwave Resonators for Low Loss Sensor Applications
In this thesis I describe both modelling and experimental measurements of superconducting mi- crowave resonators. These devices have many scientifically important applications, including as photon detectors, filter-banks, ... -
Designing Biocompatible Functional Hydrogels: Experiments and Simulations
Biocompatible functional hydrogels are ideal materials for future diagnostic sensors. Their responsiveness to external stimuli, often in the form of varying optical and mechanical properties, has greatly promoted the ... -
Interferometric Scattering Microscopy: Theory, Simulation, and Experiment
How fast does a nanomachine move? Can we watch it moving, if we can see it at all? What types of movements can we track at the nanoscale, and to what degree of spatial and temporal precision? My thesis seeks to develop ... -
Multi-Level Coarse-Grained Modelling on DNA Functionalised Building Blocks
DNA nanotechnology has proliferated in recent years as investigators have increasingly harnessed the selectivity of DNA base pairing to form multitudes of diverse structures, with a wide range of applications. The stiffness ...
