Description
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are a family of layered crystals with the chemical formula MX2 (M = W, Nb, Mo, Ta and X = S, Se, Te). These TMDs exhibit many fascinating optical and electronic properties making them strong candidates for high-end electronics, optoelectronic application, and spintronics. The layered structure of TMDs allows the crystal to be mechanically exfoliated to a monolayer limit, where bulk-scale properties no longer apply and quantum effects arise, including an indirect-to-direct bandgap transition. Controllably tuning the electronic properties of TMDs like WSe2 is therefore a highly attractive prospect achieved by substitutionally doping the metal atoms to enable n- and p-type doping at various concentrations, which can ultimately lead to more effective electronic devices due to increased charge carriers, faster transmission times and possibly new electronic and optical properties to be probed. WSe2 is expected to exhibit the largest spin splitting size and spin-orbit coupling, which leads to exciting potential applications in spintronics over its similar TMD counterparts, which can be controlled through electrical doping. Unfortunately, the well-established doping technique of ion implantation is unable to preserve the crystal quality leading to a major roadblock for the electronics applications of tungsten diselenide. Synthesizing WSe2 via chemical vapor transport (CVT) and flux method have been previously established, but controllable p-type (niobium) doping WSe2 in low concentrations ranges (<1 at %) by CVT methods requires further experimentation and study. This work studies the chemical vapor transport synthesis of doped-TMD W1-xNbxSe2 through characterization techniques of X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy, and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy techniques. In this work, it is observed that excess selenium transport does not enhance the controllability of niobium doping in WSe2, and that tellurium tetrachloride (TeCl4) transport has several barriers in successfully incorporating niobium into WSe2.

Description
Curanderismo can be defined as a blend between ancient Aztec natural healing methods and modern day Catholicism. Today, it is practiced through various techniques, which can be observed in yerberias. Upon visiting these yerberias, the attendants were interviewed to understand which products are commonly sold, what they are used to treat, and the cultural significance behind the practice. After purchasing a number of products from each yerberia, a literature analysis of potential biochemical pathways was conducted to determine if these products have efficacy in what they treat. While potential pathways were found for a number of the products, it has been determined that further clinical research must be conducted to state whether these products are effective in treatment.

Description
Motivated by my interest in translation, this creative project was designed to investigate the dubbing process and to analyze dialogues from television series in English that have been dubbed into Spanish and Italian. This project answers the following questions: What is the translation process for foreign language dubbing in film and television, and what makes it effective? To what extent does this process change the piece of media? What is the cultural importance of dubbing?

Description
In the Spanish-language horror short story collections “Los peligros de fumar en la cama” and “La cosas que perdimos en el fuego,” Argentine author Mariana Enríquez explores issues such as trauma and anxiety, weaving the supernatural and realistic together to craft haunting tales. Through her portrayal of tormented and dysfunctional characters, Enríquez draws upon features of psychological disorders found in the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). This essay demonstrates how Enríquez highlights the horror inherent in an unreliable, unstable reality by reproducing features of psychological disorders that compromise one's perception of, and interactions with, the outside world.
