    This dataset supports the publication: Robust Optical Picometrology Through Data Diversity by Cheng-Hung Chi, Eric Plum, Nikolay I. Zheludev, and Kevin F. MacDonald in JOURNAL: Optical Materials Express The file contains data for optically measured vs. actual displacement values and corresponding std. dev. values (exemplified in Figs. 3a-c and 4a-c, from which Figs. 3d-e, 4d-e, 5, and S2 are derived). [Figures 1, 2, and S1 are schematic diagrams] The project was sponsored by: Next Generation Metrology Driven by Nanophotonics EPSRC EP/T02643X/1 Dataset available under a CC BY 4.0 licence </span

    Kevin Fenton: A Reading

    No full text
    The John S. Lucas Great River Reading Series (GRRS) hosts Winona native and author Kevin Fenton. Fenton will read from his new novel Cyan Magenta Yellow Black published by Black Lawrence Press, 2025. Kevin Fenton is the author of Merit Badges, which won the AWP Prize for the Novel and the Friends of the American Writers Award, and Leaving Rollingstone, which Patricia Hampl called “the most important memoir to come out of the Midwest (or anywhere) in years.” He works as an advertising writer and creative director; in that capacity, he’s published essays in the design quarterlies Émigré and Eye (London), the anthology Looking Closer 2: Critical Writing On Graphic Design, and the UX design blog Boxes and Arrows. He got a slightly better education than he deserved at Beloit College, the University of Minnesota Law School, and the University of Minnesota MFA program. He lives in St Paul with his wife Ellen and his greyhound Evie

    Organic macromolecular architectures for non-aqueous redox flow batteries

    No full text
    The work presented is focused on the development of polymers and polymer architectures to create redox active materials. Here we attempt to produce an all-organic polymer battery in solution state using inexpensive Celgard separators to compete with experiencing large crossover. Our first example of such a material utilized viologen pendant groups as the redox mediator and acted as the anode material. This approach provided a system with reversible cycling efficiency (94-99%) and selective prevention of crossover (97%). In the attempt to form a full cell, a ferrocene-based polymer was synthesized as the cathode material. This polymer allowed us to demonstrate our first example of a full polymer battery in non-aqueous solvent. In efforts to improve anode performance, a poly-4-nitrostyrene was synthesized and achieved an increased voltage of 0.9 V over the previous viologen system. To circumvent the limited size of polymers and other macromolecules, we synthesized polymer colloids of polyvinylbenzyl chloride and functionalized them to incorporate viologen pendants. The redox active colloids performed at 99% coulombic efficiency over 50 cycles.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2018-12-01The student, Kevin Cheng, accepted the attached license on 2016-12-01 at 16:06.The student, Kevin Cheng, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2016-12-01 at 16:53.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2016-12-02 at 14:32.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #10403 on 2017-02-28 at 14:37:12Made available in DSpace on 2017-03-01T16:37:04Z (GMT).

    'Web of Life' - Profile of Kevin Petrie in Printmaking Today Winter 2024

    No full text
    Kevin Petrie, Professor of Creative Practice at the University of Sunderland, uses print to explore the novels and philosophy of Iris Murdoch writes Dr Miles Leeson. This is a 1200 word profile of Kevin Petrie and his recent work for 'Printmaking Today' which is the journal of the Royal Society of Painter Printmakers. The piece gives an overview of Petrie's creative practice focusing on the novels and thinking of Dame Iris Murdoch (1919-1999). The piece discusses Petrie's evolving model of creative practice for this project: reading the novels, sketching to visualise elements, developing and combining images in the studio and then reengagement with Murdoch (through the community, literature and archive). Petrie's 'Other Journeys' and 'Web of Life' exhibitions are discussed. The author, Dr Miles Leeson, is the Director of the Iris Murdoch Research Centre at University of Chichester and Visiting Research Fellow at Kingston University. He is the lead editor of the Iris Murdoch Review, the Series Editor of ‘Iris Murdoch Today’ with Palgrave Macmillan, and has published widely on Murdoch’s work. He published Iris Murdoch: Philosophical Novelist (Continuum) in 2010, the edited collection Incest in Contemporary Literature (Manchester University Press, 2018), the festschrift Iris Murdoch: A Centenary Celebration (Sabrestorm Fiction, 2019), the edited collection Iris Murdoch and the Literary Imagination (Palgrave Macmillan, 2022) and is currently writing Iris Murdoch: Feminist.
