  1. 1. Electrochromism in Metal Oxide Thin Films : Towards long-term durability and materials rejuvenation

    Author : Rui-Tao Wen; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Agustín R. González-Elipe; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electrochromic; smart windows; long-term durability; degradation kinetics; ion trapping; de-trapping; materials rejuvenation; Engineering Science with specialization in Solid State Physics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Abstract : Electrochromic thin films can effectively regulate the visible and infrared light passing through a window, demonstrating great potential to save energy and offer a comfortable indoor environment in buildings. However, long-term durability is a big issue and the physics behind this is far from clear. READ MORE

  2. 2. Deactivation of cobalt and nickel catalysts in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and methanation

    Author : Javier Barrientos; Magali Boutonnet; Claude Mirodatos; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cobalt; nickel; Fischer-Tropsch synthesis; methanation; deactivation; carbonyl; sintering; carbon fomation. sulfur; poisoning; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract :             A potential route for converting different carbon sources (coal, natural gas and biomass) into synthetic fuels is the transformation of these raw materials into synthesis gas (CO and H2), followed by a catalytic step which converts this gas into the desired fuels. The present thesis has focused on two catalytic steps: Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) and methanation. READ MORE

  3. 3. Carbothermal synthesis of transition metal carbide and carbonitride whiskers via a Vapour-Liquid-Solid (VLS) growth mechanism

    Author : Niklas Ahlén; Jan Otto Carlsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; oorganisk kemi; Inorganic Chemistry;

    Abstract : A route for the synthesis of TiC, TiCyN1-y, TaxTi1-xC and TaxTi1-xCyN1-y whiskers via a carbothermal Vapour-Liquid-Solid (VLS) growth mechanism, yielding 70-90 vol.% whiskers, has been established. The whiskers were uniform in diameter (0.3-0. READ MORE

  4. 4. Studies of Material Properties using Ab Initio and Classical Molecular Dynamics

    Author : Love Koči; Börje Johansson; Rajeev Ahuja; Dario Alfè; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Atomic and molecular physics; molecular dynamics; phase transitions; melting; elasticity; equation of state; metals; rare gases; Atom- och molekylfysik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, material properties have been examined under extreme conditions in computer-based calculations.The research on iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), and ferropericlase (Mg1-xFexO) are not only important for our understanding of the Earth, but also for an improved knowledge of these materials per se.

  5. 5. Cutting Edge Titanium-based CVD Hard Coatings

    Author : Linus von Fieandt; Mats Boman; Ulf Jansson; Erik Lindahl; Tommy Larsson; Henrik Pedersen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CVD; Hard coatings; Ti C; N ; TiN;

    Abstract : Modern tools for metal cutting applications, such as turning or milling, are typically improved with a thin protective coating. Despite being only a few microns thick, the coating can increase the lifetime of the tool by more than 100 times compared to an uncoated tool. Two different types of techniques are normally used to deposit the coatings, i. READ MORE
