1. Reactivity of Transition-Metal Compounds from Electronic Structure
Abstract : Transition-metal carbides (TMC's), nitrides, and sulfides belong to the class of materials known as transition-metal compounds (TMX's). Besides having intriguing properties, these materials are relevant for, e.g., growth and catalysis. READ MORE

2. Interaction between electronic and vibrational edge states in graphene
Abstract : A sheet of graphene in a magnetic field perpendicular to the sheet has electronic edge states with nonzero velocities. These edge states are localized to the edge of the sheet on the order of the magnetic length. READ MORE

3. The Electronic Structure of Organic Molecular Materials : Theoretical and Spectroscopic Investigations
Abstract : In the present thesis the electronic properties of two organic molecules were studied by means of density functional theory (DFT) in connection to their possible applications in organic photovoltaics and molecular spintronics respectively.The first analysed system is the C60 derivative PCBM extensively used in polymer solar cells for the charge separation process.

4. Electronic Properties of Nanotubes
Abstract : This thesis deals with various aspects of the electronic properties of carbon nanotubes and of generic nanotubes in magnetic fields. Carbon nanotubes are highly symmetric objects on the nanometer scale which show an interesting interplay of their geometry with electronic properties. READ MORE

5. Detection and removal of traps at the SiO2/SiC interface
Abstract : The interface between silicon dioxide (SiO2) and silicon carbide (SiC) is at the heart of the SiC metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect (MOSFET) transistor. The technology to produce a high quality SiO2/SiC interface does not exist today, hampering further development of the SiC MOSFET. READ MORE
