1. Pricing Portfolio Credit Derivatives
Abstract : This thesis consists of four papers on dynamic dependence modelling in portfolio credit risk. The emphasis is on valuation of portfolio credit derivatives. The underlying model in all papers is the same, but is split in two different sub-models, one for inhomogeneous portfolios, and one for homogeneous ones. READ MORE

2. Dyspnea Experience and Quality of Life among persons with lung cancer in palliative care
Abstract : Background: Dyspnea, a subjective, multidimensional experience of breathing discomfort commonly occurring in patients with incurable lung cancer, influences all aspects of life in the suffering per¬sons. To optimally enhance quality of life (QoL) and to identify persons most vulnerable to this symptom, it is important to investigate how to assess dyspnea, how other symptoms and coping are related to dyspnea, and what the consequences of dyspnea are, especially on QoL.

4. Fabrication and Photoelectrochemical Applications of II-VI Semiconductor Nanomaterials
Abstract : In this work we investigated fabrication of semiconductor nanomaterials and evaluated their potential for photo-chemical and photovoltaic applications. We investigated different II-VI semiconductor nanomaterial systems; (i) ZnO oriented nanowire arrays non-epitaxially grown from a substrate; and (ii) colloidal CdE (E=Te,Se,S) quantum structures synthesized by solution-based thermal decomposition of organo-metallic precursors.

5. Functional Metal Oxide Materials Deposited by Inkjet Printing Technique
Abstract : This thesis presents a comprehensive study of the intrinsic room temperature ferromagnetism in 85 to 100nm thin films produced by in situ deposition of industrially important pristine MgO and ZnO by inkjet printing. It is suggested that the observed long range magnetic order, the so-called do magnetism in these oxides arises from cation vacancies. READ MORE
