2. 11. Daylighting Systems : Development of Techniques for Optical Characterization and Performance Evaluation

   Author : Annica M. Nilsson; Arne Roos; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Marie-Claude Dubois; Michael Köhl; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Optical spectroscopy; integrating sphere; ray tracing; light scattering; window physics; Venetian blinds; core daylighting; optical characterization; Teknisk fysik; Engineering Science;

   Abstract : Successful integration of daylighting systems requires the ability to predict their performance for given climates. In this dissertation, a bottom-up approach is applied to evaluate the optical performance of a selection of daylighting systems. READ MORE

4. 12. Design, Characterization, and Calibration of Low-Noise Terahertz Receivers

   Author : Olle Nyström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; receiver characterization; instrumentation; antenna design; Radio astronomy; calibration; optics;

   Abstract : This thesis is focused on the field of instrumentation for radio-astronomy and atmospheric science, and specifically deals with problems such as optical design and its verification, horn antennas and receiver optics’ components, different aspects of measurement systems in order to characterize low-noise THz receivers, and its calibration techniques.Ultra low-noise Terahertz receivers, used in radio-astronomy, are typically coupled to the telescope system through relay optics that provides guiding of the signal to the receiver frontend with minimal loss.

5. 13. Growth and Characterization of Strain-engineered Si/SiGe Heterostructures Prepared by Molecular Beam Epitaxy

   Author : Ming Zhao; Wei-Xin Ni; Göran Hansson; Kang L. Wang; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Si SiGe; Strain engineering; Molecular beam epitaxy; THz; Quantum cascade; Strain relaxation; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

   Abstract : The strain introduced by lattice mismatch is a built-in characteristic in Si/SiGe heterostructures, which has significant influences on various material properties. Proper design and precise control of strain within Si/SiGe heterostructures, i.e. READ MORE

6. 14. Modeling of dose and sensitivity heterogeneities in radiation therapy

   Author : Kristin Wiklund; Bengt K. Lind; Iuliana Toma-Dasu; Marco Zaider; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Monte Carlo simulations; Tumor control probability; Modeling; Beam characterization; Medical Radiation Physics; medicinsk strålningsfysik;

   Abstract : The increased interest in the use of light ion therapy is due to the high dose conformity to the target and the dense energy deposition along the tracks resulting in increased relative biological effectiveness compared to conventional radiation therapy. In spite of the good clinical experience, fundamental research on the characteristics of the ion beams is still needed in order to be able to fully explore their use. READ MORE

7. 15. Design and Performance of Optically Pumped Semiconductor Disk Lasers with Wide Tuning Ranges

   Author : Carl Borgentun; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; optically pumped semiconductor disk laser; tuning range; high power; Semiconductor laser; vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting laser; design; beam characterization;

   Abstract : In this work I present a strategy for providing the possibility to select the wavelength, or color, of a semiconductor laser over a very large range, by cleverly designing the vital part of the laser: the gain element of a so called optically pumped semiconductor disk laser. Optically pumped semiconductor disk lasers (OP-SDLs) are a relatively new class of lasers showing great promise for future applications. READ MORE
