  2. 1. Luminescent textiles using biobased products : A bioinspired approach

    Author : Sweta Iyer; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bioinspired; biobased; bioluminescent; photoluminescent; textile; luminous bacteria; enzymes; immobilization; plasma; riboflavin; flavin mononucleotide; sustainable; digital printing; functionalization; Textil och mode generell ; Textiles and Fashion General ;

    Abstract : Nature has designed a few biobased molecules that are responsible for bioluminescence and photoluminescence in some living species. In this thesis, the potential use of luminescence phenomena existing in nature toward the attainment of luminescent textiles was explored. READ MORE

  4. 2. Novel bioinspired and biohybrid electrode materials for hydrogen production

    Author : Afridi Zamader; Gustav Berggren; Vincent Artero; Marc Robert; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Device; H2; [FeFe] hydrogenases; inspiration; catalyst; multiwalled carbon nanotubes; life cycle assesments; semisynthetic hydrogenases; Kemi; Chemistry; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : This thesis was accomplished under the scope of eSCALED project administrated by EU MSCA horizon 2020 program, which aimed to develop a device called “artificial leaf” responsible for generating fuels or liquid chemicals (H2 production or CO2 reduction) using solar electrolysis. My objective was to develop a noble metal free, efficient cathode materials for H2 production for the device which yield this thesis. READ MORE

    Abstract : .... READ MORE

  6. 4. Development and Mechanistic Studies of Molecularly Defined Water Oxidation Catalysts : Catalysts for a Green and Sustainable Future

    Author : Markus Kärkäs; Björn Åkermark; Jean-François Nierengarten; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; artificial photosynthesis; water oxidation; photochemistry; electrochemistry; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the development of complexes that are active catalysts for H2O oxidation. Promoting proton-coupled electron transfer has been a highly important feature in the development of these catalysts. READ MORE

  7. 5. Mueller matrix ellipsometry studies of nanostructured materials

    Author : Roger Magnusson; Hans Arwin; Kenneth Järrendahl; Morten Kildemo; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Materials can be tailored on the nano-scale to show properties that cannot be found in bulk materials. Often these properties reveal themselves when electromagnetic radiation, e.g. light, interacts with the material. READ MORE
