F-region Dusk Ion Temperature Spikes at the Equatorward Edge of the High Latitude Convection Region
(2013-12-23)By examining continuous data from the Poker Flat Incoherent Scatter Radar (PFISR) in Poker Flat, Alaska, short-lived enhancements in the F-region ion temperature, or "Tᵢ spikes", were discovered in the evening while the ... -
F-region winds over the central polar cap
(2000-01-01)F-region neutral winds across the polar cap have been studied by utilizing a Fabry-Perot interferometer located at Eureka (89° CGM), Nunavut Territory, over a 2-winter period 1997/98 and 1998/99. The dependence of neutral ... -
F.A.R.M. Phase One
(1993-02-25)F.A.R.M. Phase one is a computer program which controls the processing of soil samples at Plains Innovative Laboratory Services in Saskatoon. This video describes the four steps of the soil testing process and shows how ... -
F4ac-fimbrial-binding proteins in porcine milk and the absorption of colostral proteins by piglets
(2008)F4 positive enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is the most common pathogen causing neonatal diarrhea in piglets. The pathogenesis requires the attachment of ETEC to the intestinal brush border, mediated by F4 fimbria. ... -
FABRICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF ADHERENT DIAMOND-LIKE CARBON BASED THIN FILMS ON POLYETHYLENE TEREPHTHALATE BY END HALL ION BEAM DEPOSITION
(2016-10-04)The application of Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) has been steadily increasing during recent years. However, its low wear resistance, high gas permeation rate and poor biocompatibility have significantly limited its ... -
Fabrication and Characterization of Bio-epoxy Eggshell Composites
(2019-09-11)Low cost fillers such as mineral limestone (LS) are added to polymers in an effort to improve their properties. Waste eggshells (ES), a by-product of the egg breaking plant industry, contain high content of calcium carbonate ... -
Fabrication and characterization of nanocrystalline silicon LEDs : a study of the influence of annealing
(2014-10-07)This thesis describes the fabrication of a set of bright, visible light-emitting silicon LEDs. These devices were fabricated in-house at the University of Saskatchewan using a custom plasma ion implantation tool, an annealing ... -
FABRICATION AND OPTIMAL-DESIGN OF BIODEGRADABLE STENTS FOR THE TREATMENT OF ANEURYSMS
(2016-04-11)An aneurysm is a balloon-like bulge in the wall of blood vessels, occurring in major arteries from the heart and brain. Biodegradable stent-assisted coiling is expected to be the ideal treatment of wide-neck complex ... -
FABRICATION AND THERMAL ANALYSIS OF POLYIMIDE-BASED X-RAY MASKS AT THE SYNCHROTRON LABORATORY FOR MICRO AND NANO DEVICES, CANADIAN LIGHT SOURCE
(2016-09-23)In deep X-ray lithography (DXRL), synchrotron radiation (SR) is applied to transfer absorber patterns on an X-ray mask into the photoresist to fabricate high-aspect-ratio micro and nano scale structures (HARMNST). The ... -
Fabrication of alginate hydrogel scaffolds and cell viability in calcium-crosslinked alginate hydrogel
(2011-06)Tissue-engineering (TE) is one of the most innovative approaches for tackling many diseases and body parts that need to be replaced, by developing artificial tissues and organs. For this, tissue scaffolds play an important ... -
Fabrication of composite scaffolds impregnated with an optimized fibrin-alginate hydrogel for cartilage tissue engineering
(2012-05-19)Osteoarthritis (OA) is a painful degenerative joint disease that affects millions of North Americans. OA could be better managed if tissue engineers can develop methods to create long-term mechanically stable engineered ... -
Fabrication of electroluminescent silicon diodes by plasma ion implantation
(2009)This thesis describes the fabrication and testing of electroluminescent diodes made from silicon subjected to plasma ion implantation. A silicon-compatible, electrically driven light source is desired to increase the speed ... -
Fabrication of Vanadium Dioxide Thin Films and their Structural, Optical and Electrical Characterization for Optoelectronic Applications
(2023-02-23)Vanadium dioxide (VO2) is a transition metal oxide that is well known for its metal-to-insulator phase transition (MIT). One of the most common forms of VO2 that has been generally studied is the thin film form. VO2 thin ... -
