1. Quantum Devices from the Assembly of Zero- and One-Dimensional Building Blocks
Abstract : This thesis describes novel methods for the fabrication of nanometer-scale electronic devices, such as single-electron transistors and resonant tunneling diodes, from wire- and dot-shaped building blocks. The first part of the thesis describes the manipulation of metal nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes using an atomic force microscope. READ MORE

2. Hydrodynamics and Complete Suspension in Axially Stirred Vessels
Abstract : Complete suspension of solid particles in stirred vessels has been subject to numerous investigationsin order to develop appropriate design criteria for solid/liquid suspensions. Previous work on this matter has often suffered from the lack of knowledge of fluid mechanics in the system and models based on overall flow characteristics have been proposed in the literature.

3. Valuation in Welfare Markets : The Rule Books, Whiteboards and Swivel Chairs of Care Choice Reform
Abstract : This thesis takes an interest in how values attain a specific meaning in market reforms of welfare provision. The study builds on exploring how values are enacted rather than treating them as universal and stable. READ MORE

4. Stochastic Resonance and Noise-Assisted Signal Transfer : On Coupling Effects of Stochastic Resonators and Spectral Optimization of Fluctuations in Random Network Switches
Abstract : Recent research shows that noise or random fluctuations must not always be destructive in Nature by degrading system performance. On the contrary, in nonlinear systems they can synchronize systems or enhance the quality of signal transmission. The latter possibility is reported in the thesis. READ MORE

5. Studies of Three Different Methods to Estimate the Up-link Performance of Mobile Phone Antennas
Abstract : Antennas play an important role in determining the overall radio performance for wireless communications. If all other radio components perform according to their specifications, the performance of a mobile phone can be entirely determined by measuring the efficiency of its antenna. READ MORE
