  2. 16. Coated Surfaces for Inkjet-Printed Conductors

    Author : Thomas Öhlund; Hans-Erik Nilsson; Jonas Örtegren; Jouko Peltonen; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Inkjet; Nanoparticles; Paper; Flexible substrates; Sintering; Printed Electronics; Functional Printing;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a number of commercially available paper substrates of various types are characterized and their characteristics related to the performance of inkjet-printed conductors using silver nanoparticle ink. The evaluated performance variables are electrical conductivity as well as the minimum achievable conductor width and the edge raggedness. READ MORE

  4. 17. Get a grip on chaos : Tailored measures for complex systems on surfaces

    Author : Sascha Firle; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum chemistry; complex systems; chaos; predator prey; movement models; functional response; spatial heterogeneity; topological dynamics; braid template; homoclinic bifurcations; Kvantkemi; Quantum chemistry; Kvantkemi; Quantum Chemistry; kvantkemi;

    Abstract : Complex systems are ubiquitous in physics, biology and mathematics. This thesis is concerned with describing and understanding complex systems. Some new concepts about how large systems can be viewed in a lower dimensional framework are proposed. The systems presented are examples from ecology and chemistry. READ MORE

  5. 18. Oxidation of some Late Transition Metal Surfaces: Structural Studies from UHV to Atmospheric Pressure

    Author : Johan Gustafson; Synkrotronljusfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Kondenserade materiens egenskaper:struktur; phase equilibria; crystallography; thermal and mechanical properties; Condensed matter:stucture; density functional theory; scanning tunneling microscopy; surface x-ray diffraction; high resolution core level spectroscopy; low energy electron diffraction; metal surfaces; oxidation; catalysis; egenskaper termiska och mekaniska ; kristallografi; fasjämvikt;

    Abstract : The oxidation of Rh, Pd and Pt is studied under conditions ranging from ultra high vacuum to ambient pressures, with emphasis on a complete understanding of the geometry of the various oxide structures found. The investigations use a combination of various experimental methods, including high resolution core level spectroscopy, low energy electron diffraction, surface x-ray diffraction and scanning tunneling microscopy, as well as density functional theory calculations.

  6. 19. Nanopolysaccharide coatings for functional surfaces in water-treatment materials : From mechanisms to process scalability

    Author : Andrea Aguilar Sánchez; Aji P. Mathew; Albert Mihranyan; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nanopolysaccharides; coating; water treatment; nanocellulose; nanochitin; antifouling; antibacterial; separation technologies; materialkemi; Materials Chemistry;

    Abstract : In this thesis, materials from renewable resources were used to develop functionalized surfaces for water treatment. The work is thus inspired by, and contributes to, the United Nations sustainable goals of: (i) clean water and sanitation, (ii) climate action, (iii) responsible consumption and production, (iv) life below water, and (v) partnerships for the goals.

  7. 20. Functional nanocomposites for advanced fuel cell technology and polygeneration

    Author : Rizwan Raza; Bin Zhu; Torsten Fransson; Mahmut D. MAT; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polygeneration; advanced fuel cell; functional materials; ceria-carbonate nanocomposites; multi-fuelled; electrolyte free fuel cell; SRA - Energy; SRA - Energi;

    Abstract : In recent decades, the use of fossil fuels has increased exponentially with a corresponding sharp increase in the pollution of the environment. The need for clean and sustainable technologies for the generation of power with reduced or zero environment impact has become critical. READ MORE
