  2. 1. Thin films for indoor air monitoring : Measurements of Volatile Organic Compounds

    Author : Umut Cindemir; Niklasson Gunnar; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Lars Österlund; Magnus Willander; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gas sensor; thin film; adcanced gas depostion; sputter deposition; nickel oxide; gold nanoparticles; indium tin oxide; acetaldehyde; formaldehyde;

    Abstract : Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the indoor air have adverse effects on the dwellers residing in a building or a vehicle. One of these effects is called sick building syndrome (SBS). READ MORE

  4. 2. Electrochromism in Nickel-based Oxides : Coloration Mechanisms and Optimization of Sputter-deposited Thin Films

    Author : Esteban Damián Avendaño Soto; Gunnar Niklasson; Andris Azens; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Ulf Helmersson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Nickel based Oxide; Electrochromism; Thin Films; Sputtering; Coloration mechanism; Fysik; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Electrochromic properties of sputter-deposited nickel-based oxide films have been studied with a two-fold goal. From a practical point of view, the optical switching performance has been improved by optimizing the deposition conditions and film stoichiometry with respect to oxygen and hydrogen, and further by adding Mg, Al, Si, Zr, Nb or Ta to the films.

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the application of nanocrystalline transition metal oxide TiO2, WO3 and NiO thin films in new “green” building technologies. Specifically, their physicochemical properties in photocatalytic, self-cleaning and gas sensing applications are studied. READ MORE

  6. 4. Thin Film Synthesis of Nickel Containing Compounds

    Author : Erik Lindahl; Jan-Otto Carlsson; Jens Birch; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemical Vapor Deposition; CVD; Atomic Layer Deposition; ALD; Nickel nitride; Nickel oxide; Nickel; Epitaxy; multilayer; Thin film; Inorganic chemistry; Oorganisk kemi; Inorganic Chemistry; Oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Most electrical, magnetic or optical devices are today based on several, usually extremely thin layers of different materials.  In this thesis chemical synthesis processes have been developed for growth of less stable and metastable layers, and even multilayers, of nickel containing compounds.

  7. 5. Epitaxy of oxide and nitride thin films grown by magnetron sputtering

    Author : Faezeh Alijan Farzad Lahiji; Per Eklund; Arnaud Le Febvrier; Biplab Paul; Tomas Nyberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The need for electronic devices with new functionalities has caused research to move in a way to design and utilize materials with high-performance thermoelectricity, widely used in batteries, sensors, and electronic devices. Two-dimensional materials (2D) with unique structures and remarkable properties have been identified to fabricate oxide heteroepitaxy. READ MORE
