  2. 1. Housing Aquaporins in Nanostructured Glass

    Author : Simon Isaksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Membrane protein; Water; Interface; Aquaporin; Silica; Formation; Silicification;

    Abstract : Proteins are a group of biomolecules that perform versatile tasks, which in many cases are essential for life. The magnitude of their importance is perhaps expressed by the word protein itself, coined by the Swedish chemist Jöns Jacob Berzelius in the summer of 1838. READ MORE

  4. 2. Laser processing of Silica based glass

    Author : Patrik Holmberg; Fredrik Laurell; Valerio Pruneri; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fiber Bragg Gratings; photosensitivity; Glass; laser machining; optical fibers; fiber sensor; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : The main topic of this thesis work is photosensitivity and photo-structuring of optical fibers and bulk glass. Although research in the field of photosensitivity in glass and optical fibers has been ongoing for more than three decades, the underlying mechanisms are still not well understood. READ MORE

  5. 3. Impact of Glass Formation on the Thermal Stability of Non-Fullerene Solar Cells

    Author : Sandra Hultmark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanostructure.; glass formation; conjugated polymers; kinetic fragility; organic solar cells; Keywords: organic electronics; bulk heterojunction blend; thermal stability;

    Abstract : The world is facing immense challenges such as climate change and the depletion of non-renewable resources, making renewable sources of energy essential for a sustainable future. Organic solar cells are emerging as a promising technology; however, their stability requires significant improvement. READ MORE
