1. On Surface Characteristics and Microstructural Development of Soft Magnetic Composite Powder and Components
Abstract : Soft Magnetic Composite (SMC) products manufactured by traditional Powder Metallurgical (PM) techniques, are strong candidate materials for electromagnetic applications. Their advantages are based on cost and energy efficient production methods, shape complexity realization and uniquely uniform and isotropic three dimensional (3D) magnetic properties. READ MORE

2. Surface Studies of Model Systems relevant for Pd and Ag Catalysts
Abstract : This PhD thesis reports on investigations of the atomic scale structure of model catalysts relevant for the catalytic oxidation of CO and methane over Pd, and NOx reduction over silver-alumina, important reactions in automotive catalysts. By using complementary experimental techniques such as X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, High Pressure X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, Surface X-ray Diffraction, Low Energy Electron Diffraction, Infrared Spectroscopy, and Scanning Tunneling Microscopy, combined with theoretical calculations, the work presented in this thesis aims at an atomistic characterization of the active sites for silver-alumina and Pd model catalysts which may help to the design of new and improved catalysts.

3. CO, CO2 and N2 hydrogenation reactions probed by operando x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
Abstract : Catalytic reactions are essential for generating the chemical products required by the modern society. In particular, reactions related to clean energy storage and generation as well as fertilizer production are facilitated by catalysts. However, the processes are often insufficiently understood at a mechanistic level. READ MORE
