  2. 11. Reshaping the phase diagram of YBa2Cu3O7-δ through strain in ultrathin films and nanowires

    Author : Eric Wahlberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phase-slip; strange metal; High-Tc superconductors; thin-films; underdoped; nanowires; YBCO; charge density wave;

    Abstract : This thesis aims at adding important pieces to the puzzle of understanding the physics of the High critical Temperature Superconductor (HTS) cuprates, where despite over 30 years of intense research many open questions remain. The HTS cuprates are characterized by an incredibly complex phase diagram with multiple intertwined local orders, such as charge density waves (CDW). READ MORE

  4. 12. Protective and Nanoporous Alumina Films Studied in situ by X-ray and Electrochemical Methods

    Author : Jonas Evertsson; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; XRR; XPS; XRF; GTSAXS; EIS; Synchrotron Radiation; Native oxide; Anodization; Anodic aluminum oxide; Nanoporous aluminum oxide; Single crystal; Aluminum alloys; in situ; Fysicumarkivet A:2018:Evertsson;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the studies of native and anodic oxides on both aluminum model single crystal surfaces as well as on aluminum alloys found in applications are presented. The focus has been on the characterization in situ as the oxide is growing by an electrochemical process called anodization. READ MORE

  5. 13. Electronic Structure and Transport Properties of Carbon Based Materials

    Author : Anders Hansson; Gianaurelio Cuniberti; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular crystals; Organic crystals; Nano technique; Density-Functional Theory DFT ; Fermi; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : In the past decade the interest in molecular electronic devices has escalated. The synthesis of molecular crystals has improved, providing single crystals or thin films with mobility comparable with or even higher than amorphous silicon. Their mechanical flexibility admits new types of applications and usage of electronic devices. READ MORE

  6. 14. Fabrication of inverse opal oxide structures for efficient light harvesting

    Author : Delphine Lebrun; Lars Österlund; Gunnar Niklasson; Vassilios Kapaklis; Herman Högström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; photonic; inverse opal; metal oxide; opal; Engineering Science with specialization in Solid State Physics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Abstract : Artificial opals are self-assembled face centered cubic (fcc) structures of  spherically shaped beads, which interesting applications as photonic band gap materials. Inverse opals are photonic crystals consisting of fcc paced voids of a low refractive index material imbedded in a high refractive index material. READ MORE

  7. 15. Growth and Characterization of ZnO Nanocrystals

    Author : Leif KE Ericsson; Kjell O Magnusson; Lars SO Johansson; Hanmin M Zhang; Omer Nour; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ZnO; Nanocrystals; Surface physics; XPS; SEM; AES; AFM; STM; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : The understanding of surfaces of materials is of crucial importance to all of us. Considering nanocrystals (NCs), that have a large surface to bulk ratio, the surfaces become even more important. Therefore, it is important to understand the fundamental surface properties in order to use NCs efficiently in applications. READ MORE
