Abstract:
Dry eye syndrome has been associated with the lack of phospholipids in the tear film, leading to disruption of the tear film and subsequent irritation. Characterization of the transport and release of phospholipids from a silicone hydrogel contact lens is required to assess the possible use of these lenses for phospholipid delivery to increase patient comfort. This thesis examines the use of silicone hydrogel contact lenses as phospholipid delivery devices. Contact lenses of silicone hydrogel composition were loaded with varying amounts of radiolabeled 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholi

Les revêtements d'hydrogel sont des réseaux de polymères transparents et hydrophiles capables d’abosrber plusieurs fois leur épaisseur en eau. Cependant, les contraintes induites par le gonflement du film peuvent entraîner un décollement préjudiciable de l'hydrogel ce qui peut limiter l’utilisation pratique des ces revêtements. Dans cette étude, nous proposons de décrire les mécanismes de décollement de films minces d’hydrogel en fonction de leur densité de greffage à l'interface film/substrat.

Quantum computers have been the dream of many scientists for over thirty years but the fact such devices still consist of only a handful of quantum bits (qubits) highlights the fact that this is not a trivial concept.

Silicone Hydrogel (SiHy) contact lenses are highly successful compared to previous soft lenses; they were developed to provide superior oxygen permeability.

A mass manufacturable impedance based, palladium doped porous silicon sensor, was fabricated for hydrogen detection. The sensor was built using electrochemical etching to produce mesoporous silicon. Four nanometers of palladium was defused directly into the porous silicon and another four nanometers of Pd was deposited on the defused surface to enhance sensing. The sensor was tested in a sealed chamber in which the impedance was measured while hydrogen in nitrogen was ranged from 0-2 percent. Unlike conventional hydrogen sensors this sensor responded at room temperature to changes in hydrogen

Several techniques for elucidating the identity, quantity and conformation of lysozyme deposited on soft contact lenses have been developed. Lysozyme also deposits on the newly introduced silicone hydrogel (SH) lens materials, but in extremely low levels compared to conventional hydrogel lenses. Hence, a major analytical complication with the study of the SH contact lens materials relates to the minute quantity of deposited lysozyme. The first project of this thesis

Silicon-on-insulator structures are used for the fabrication of integrated electronic circuits, photonic devices and structures, and micro-electro-mechanical systems.
