  1. 1. Conducting Polymers Containing In-Chain Metal Centres : Electropolymerisation and Charge Transport

    Author : Johan Hjelm; Anders Hagfeldt; Emad Mukhtar; Robert Forster; A. R. Hillman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical chemistry; Polymer electrochemistry; Conducting Polymers; Metal Complexes; Electropolymerization; Electron-hopping; Microelectrodes; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical Chemistry; fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : Conjugated polymers that exhibit high electronic conductivities play key roles in the emerging field of molecular electronics. In particular, linking metal centres with useful electrochemical, photophysical, or catalytic properties to the backbone, or within the polymer chain itself, is a topic which has attracted a significant amount of interest lately.

  4. 4. Kinetic investigation of LiMn2O4 for rechargeable lithium batteries

    Author : Anna-Karin Hjelm; KTH; []
    Keywords : linear sweep voltammetry; electrochemical impedance spectroscopy; potential step; in situ X-ray diffraction; microelectrodes; electrode kinetics; LiMn2O4 cathode; rechargeable lithium batteries;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with kinetic characterisation of theinsertion compound LiMn2O4, which is used as positive electrodematerial in rechargeable lithium batteries. Three different typesof electrode configurations have been investigated, namely singleparticles, thin films and composite electrodes. Differentelectrochemical techniques, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 5. Salvadora persica (MISWAK) : an effective way of killing oral pathogens

    Author : Abier Hamed Sofrata; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Miswak; Salvadora persica; chewing stick; traditional medicine; gingivitis; periodontitis; dental plaque; plaque pH; salivary flow; acid production; microelectrodes; oral hygiene; subgingival microbiota; antibacterial agent; isothiocyanate; chromatography; Porphyromonas gingivalis; Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans;

    Abstract : Mechanical removal of dental plaque is regarded as an effective means of controlling the progression of dental caries and periodontal disease. The habitual use of chewing sticks (Miswak) as an oral hygiene method is still wildly spread throughout parts of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. READ MORE
