  2. 1. In silico Identification of Thyroid Disrupting Chemicals : among industrial chemicals and household dust contaminants

    Author : Jin Zhang; Patrik Andersson; A. Elisabeth Sauer-Eriksson; Liang-Hong Guo; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Thyroid disruption chemicals; virtual screening; tranthyretin; thyroid hormone receptor; QSAR modeling; molecular docking; molecular dynamics;

    Abstract : Thyroid disruptions by xenobiotics have been associated with a broad spectrum of severe adverse human health effects, such as impaired brain development and metabolic syndrome. Ingestion of indoor dust and contact with industrial chemicals are two significant human exposure routes of thyroid hormone disrupting chemicals (THDCs), raising serious concerns for human health.

  4. 2. Integration of silicide nanowires as Schottky barrier source/drain in FinFETs

    Author : Zhen Zhang; Shi-Li Zhang; Tsu-Jae King Liu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CMOS technology; MOSFET; FinFET; Schottky diode; Schottky barrier soure drain; silicide; SALICIDE; SOI; multiple-gate; nanowire; sidewall transfer lithography; Electronics; Elektronik;

    Abstract : The steady and aggressive downscaling of the physical dimensions of the conventional metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistor (MOSFET) has been the main driving force for the IC industry and information technology over the past decades. As the device dimensions approach the fundamental limits, novel double/trigate device architecture such as FinFET is needed to guarantee the ultimate downscaling. READ MORE

  5. 3. Fill factor of organic solar cells and applications of dilute donor devices

    Author : Nannan Yao; Fengling Zhang; Jonas Bergqvist; Jan van Stam; Weimin Chen; Julia W. P. Hsu; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Organic solar cells (OSCs) have attracted great attention due to their low cost, flexibility and solution-processibility. In recent years, the development of nonfullerene acceptors (NFAs) has truly promoted the efficiency of OSCs up to 19%, implying high potential for commercial applications. READ MORE

  6. 4. Modulaton of gene expression in human aortic smooth muscle cells by Porphyromonas gingivalis : a possible association between periodontitis and atherosclerosis

    Author : Boxi Zhang; Torbjörn Bengtsson; Allan Sirsjö; Hazem Khalaf; Julia Davies; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microarray; Angiopoietin; Smooth muscle cells; TNF; Periodontitis; Atherosclerosis; Porphyromonas gingivalis; Cancer; Inflammasome; Biomedicin; Biomedicine;

    Abstract : Porphyromonas gingivalis is a gram-negative, rod-shaped, and anaerobic bacterium that is involved in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. P. gingivalis produces a variety of virulence factors including gingipains and fimbriae. READ MORE

  7. 5. Applications of Ion Beam Methods in Silicide/Si and Silicide/GaAs Nanometre Structures

    Author : Yanwen Zhang; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Phase formation; Nanometre structures; silicide; detection efficiency; Ion Beam Analysis; Ion Beam Synthesis; Time-of-Flight Energy Elastic Recoil Detection ToF-E ERD ; implantation; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Zhang; Kärnfysik; Nuclear physics; Detla E-E ERD;

    Abstract : Ion beam methods are used to analyse material (Ion Beam Analysis, IBA) and to modify the target (Ion Beam Modification of Materials, IBMM). In this thesis, ion beams have been used in various IBA techniques to investigate the surface nanometre structures, and also in an ion beam synthesis (IBS) technique to form thin films and to modify material properties.
