  Large extra dimensions were originally proposed to solve the hierarchy problem of the Standard Model (SM) of elementary particle physics. The presence of large extra dimensions dilutes gravity, lowering the Planck scale, ...
• Synthesis, characterization, and phase stability of high temperature thermoelectric metal borides and silicides 

  Bogala, Mallikharjuna Reddy (University of Alabama Libraries, 2016)

  Thermoelectric (TE) materials are used for converting waste heat into electricity. The TE technology is attractive because it uses solid-state devices that are immovable, highly reliable, and eco-friendly. Currently, the ...
• Interplay of magnetic anisotropy and magnetization reversal in ferromagnetic thin films for spintronics applications 

  Paul, Soumalya (University of Alabama Libraries, 2016)
