  1. 6. Vibrational and Structural Characterisation in Two Perovskite Challenges: A Density Functional Theory Study

    Author : Erik Jedvik Granhed; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phonon; chemical expansion; materials modelling; oxyhydride; polaron; vibrational analysis; BaTiO3; BaZrO3; anti-ferrodistortive; density functional theory;

    Abstract : The modelling of perovskites using density functional theory (DFT) can sometimes be a challenge with many different states very close in energy. In particular, the tilting of the inscribed octahedron, as well as the formation of electron polarons, leads to states with energy differences in the meV range. READ MORE

  2. 7. Collective Excitation Dynamics in Molecular Aggregates

    Author : Mats Dahlbom; Kemisk fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; Kemi; Fysik; Physics; computational methods; photosynthesis; femtosecond spectroscopy; Exciton; Polaron;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to study collective excitation dynamics in molecular aggregates. Half of the work presented here is method development and the remainder is application of these methods to several di.erent molecular aggregates. READ MORE

  3. 8. On hydrogen point defects in perovskite oxides

    Abstract : Oxides based on the perovskite structure exhibit a surprisingly large diversity in materials properties and are found in many different applications, several related to clean energy technologies, such as solar cells, batteries and fuel cells. Many properties in materials are the result of lattice imperfections, commonly denoted \emph{defects}, and much effort is devoted to fine tuning materials properties through controlling the defects therein.
