This project will focus on furthering the development of a compact picosecond infrared laser (PIRL) system for use in surgical applications. This laser system, which represents a new paradigm for laser surgery, is unique in its ability to provide high-speed cutting of biological tissue without the collateral damage to surrounding tissues inherent in current surgical […]

This study will examine the relationship between reclamation methods and when deactivated roads become suitable for caribou, using developing UAV technology to monitor caribou while testing UAV effectiveness in the field. This will be done by establishing long-term cameras along reclaimed road sites, monitoring wildlife movement through the study areas and by completing aerial wildlife […]

While we enjoy the modern convenience brought by a multitude of man-made organic chemicals, such as surfactants and flame retardants, the exposure to these compounds, some of which are bio-accumulative, persistent and even toxic, may endanger our health. Humans are exposed to chemicals in consumer products during both product use in the indoor environment (near-field […]

Thousands of organic chemicals have been synthesized and commercialized for industrial and consumer uses. However, an increasing number of organic chemicals are revealed to be “hazardous” because of their potential adverse environmental and/or health effects. The project seeks to identify the primary route(s) that humans take up these organic substances, e.g., use of personal care […]

Gas transport in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells is of increasing interest since low gas crossover is desired in the membrane, however high gas transport is desired in the catalyst layer where ionomer is present (and is typically similar in chemical structure to the membrane). This project will investigate the permeability of oxygen, nitrogen, and […]

One of the major issues facing potash mining in Saskatchewan is the potential for water to enter the mine from water-bearing rocks above mining operations. Rocks near-mine are normally considered dry and low risk. However, under some conditions, in localized areas, there is the potential for unsaturated water to have been introduced into the rock […]

Batteries are ideally suited for energy storage due to their pollution-free operation, high efficiency, flexible energy and power characteristics to meet different grid functions, cycle life, and low maintenance. The collaboration between the Thangadurai Group and Geometric Energy Corporation aims to develop a non-explosive, non-toxic, non-flammable all-solid-state sodium-ion battery using nanotechnology with a commercially competitive […]

The proposed project aims to develop a non-explosive, non-toxic, non-flammable all-solid-state sodium-ion battery with a commercially competitive business case for applications in grid-scale battery storage, […]

Cobalt thin-films have found widespread applications in microelectronics devices; such as liners in copper interconnects, wetting layers, and caps, in addition to applications for magnetic devices and CoSi2 contacts. CVD and ALD techniques are typically used to achieve cobalt films between 2-5 nm thick with excellent conformalities and negligible resistance increase. Leading precursors for cobalt […]
