  2. 1. Resonant Soft X-Ray Emission Spectroscopy of Vanadium Oxides and Related Compounds

    Author : Thorsten Schmitt; Joseph Nordgren; Laurent Duda; Stefan Eisebitt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; vanadium oxides; Li-battery; cathode materials; copper oxides; soft X-ray absorption; soft X-ray emission; resonant inelastic X-ray scattering; cluster model calculations; Fysik; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the electronic structure of vanadium and copper oxides using soft X-ray absorption (SXA) spectroscopy and resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) at high brightness synchrotron radiation sources. In RIXS incident photons, tuned to the energy of specific absorption resonances, are inelastically scattered leaving behind a low energy valence excitation in the system studied. READ MORE

    Abstract : Diabetes mellitus is one of the most threatening epidemics of modern times with rapidly increasing incidence. Vanadium and peroxovanadium compounds have been shown to exert insulin–like actions and, in contrast to insulin, are orally applicable. However, problems with side–effects and toxicity remain.

    Abstract : Biotechnological processes offer environmentally friendly and sometimes cost-effective alternatives to traditional chemical and mechanical methods. It is important to take advantages of the opportunities these processes provide to fulfil the demands and expectations of a future environmentally sustainable society. READ MORE

  7. 5. On the preparation and properties of mixed-valence alkali vanadium oxides

    Author : Bertil Forslund; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The phase relations in the systems A2O-V2O5-V2O3 (A = alkali metal) are very complex. The existence of a number of stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric phases complicates phase analysis and preparative work. READ MORE
