  1. 1. Deposition and absorption of inhaled drugs

    Author : Eva Bondesson; Malmö Klinisk fysiologi och nuklearmedicin; []

    Abstract : Main objectives of this thesis were to evaluate a gamma scintigraphic method used to quantify drug aerosol deposition in the lung, to investigate the influence of two aerosol inhalation parameters on the distribution of inhaled dry powder within the airways, to assess pulmonary absorption kinetics and bioavailability of an inhaled hydrophilic solute in relation to site of deposition, and to assess the influence of a surface active agent (sodium taurocholate, a bile salt) on the deposition and absorption of an inhaled hydrophilic solute. Repeated planar gamma scintigraphy was found to provide the same information on total pulmonary drug deposition as an independent method that involved assessments of urinary drug recovery after blockage of gastrointestinal drug absorption when all of the critical parts of the methodological procedures were accurately and meticulously executed.

  3. 3. Model-based Analysis and Design of Atomic Layer Deposition Processes

    Author : Anders Holmqvist; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Atomic layer deposition; Heterogeneous reaction kinetics; Limit-cycle dynamics; Parameter estimation; Multi-objective optimization; Dynamic optimization; Scale-up analysis;

    Abstract : Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a thin-film manufacturing process in which the growth surface is exposed to non-overlapping alternating injections of gas-phase chemical precursor species separated by intermediate purge periods to prevent gas-phase reactions. ALD is characterized by sequential self-terminating heterogeneous reactions between highly reactive gas-phase precursor species and surface-bound species which, when allowed sufficient conditions to reach saturation, results in highly conformal films, on both planar and topographically complex structures.

  4. 4. Surface Science Studies of Metal Oxides Formed by Chemical Vapour Deposition on Silicon

    Author : Patrik Karlsson; Anders Sandell; Håkan Rensmo; Marcus Bäumer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Physics; chemical vapour deposition; high-k; metal oxides; silicon; dye-solid interface; metal organic; electron spectroscopy; scanning tunnelling microscopy; Fysik;

    Abstract : For an electronic device well-designed interfaces are critical for the performance. Studies of interfaces down to an atomic level are thus highly motivated both from a fundamental and technological point of view. READ MORE

  5. 5. 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.
