  1. 1. Ab initio simulations of core level spectra : Towards an atomistic understanding of the dye-sensitized solar cell

    Author : Ida Josefsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multiconfigurational quantum chemistry; CASSCF calculations; core-level spectroscopy; x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy; x-ray absorption; resonant x-ray scattering; dye solar cells; transition metals; kemisk fysik; Chemical Physics;

    Abstract : The main focus of this thesis is ab initio modeling of core level spectra with a high-level quantum chemical description both of the chemical interactions and of local atomic multiplet effects. In particular, the combination of calculations and synchrotron-based core-level spectroscopy aims at understanding the local structure of the electronic valence in transition metal complexes, and the details of the solvation mechanisms of electrolyte solutions, systems relevant for the dye-sensitized solar cell.

  2. 2. Structure and dynamics in solution – the core electron perspective

    Author : Ida Josefsson; Michael Odelius; Håkan Rensmo; Valérie Vallet; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum chemistry; RASSCF; molecular dynamics; x-ray spectroscopy; electrolyte solutions; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on theoretical studies of the molecular and electronic structure of solvated ions and molecules. Very detailed information of the system can be obtained from theoretical calculations, but a realistic model is dependent on an accurate computational method. READ MORE

  3. 3. Dispersal and environmental impact of contaminants in organic rich, fibrous sediments of industrial origin in the Baltic Sea

    Author : Anna Apler; Ian Snowball; Karin Wiberg; Kevin Bishop; Sarah Josefsson; Lovisa Zillén; Ida-Maja Hassellöv; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fiberbank; fiber-rich sediments; metals; persistent organic pollutants; pore water; bottom water; dispersal; sorption; pulp and paper; Natural Resources and Sustainable Development; Naturresurser och hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : The health of the Baltic Sea is negatively affected by hazardous substances such as metals and persistent organic pollutants (POPs), which include legacy pollutants that were banned decades ago, but still circulate in the ecosystem. Elevated levels of legacy pollutants, identified by HELCOM as key hazardous substances, have been found in accumulations of fibrous sediments, so-called fiberbanks and fiber-rich sediments, which derive from old pulp mills along the Swedish north coast.
