  1. 16. Highly-Efficient Energy Harvesting Interfaces for Implantable Biosensors

    Author : Janko Katic; Ana Rusu; Saul Rodriguez; Gabriel Rincón-Mora; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy harvesting interface; thermoelectric generator; glucose biofuel cell; power management; dc-dc converter; boost converter; zero-current switching; zero-voltage switching; implantable biosensor; Energiskördsgränssnitt; termoelektrisk generator; glukosbiobränslecell; energihantering; DC-DC-omvandlare; boost-omvandlare; inplanterbar biosensor; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : Energy harvesting is identified as an alternative solution for powering implantable biosensors. It can potentially enable the development of self-powered implants if the harvested energy is properly handled. This development implies that batteries, which impose many limitations, are replaced by miniature harvesting devices. READ MORE

    Abstract : The growth of Internet of Things (IoT) networks has made battery replacement in IoT devices increasingly challenging. This issue is particularly pronounced in scenarios with a large number of IoT devices, in locations where IoT devices are difficult to access, or when frequent replacement is necessary. READ MORE

  3. 18. Development of Novel Hydroporphyrins for Light Harvesting and Sensitising NIR Lanthanide Luminescence

    Author : Ruisheng Xiong; Eszter Borbas; Christian Brückner; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; chlorin; hydroporphyrin; chlorophyll analogues; light harvesting; lanthanide luminescence; Chemistry with specialization in Organic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot organisk kemi;

    Abstract : Chlorins, as the core structures of chlorophylls, have been extensively studied for harvesting solar energy, fluorescent imaging and photodynamic therapy against cancer. This thesis is concerned with design and synthesis of novel chlorins as antennae for harvesting light and sensitising near infrared lanthanide luminescence. READ MORE

  4. 19. Multidimensional Fluorescence Polarization Imaging of Single Light Harvesting Complexes

    Author : Sumera Tubasum; Kemisk fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Light Harvesting Complexes; Single Molecule Spectroscopy; Polarization Spectroscopy; Exciton Dynamics; Spectral Disorder;

    Abstract : This thesis presents my research journey in the Department of Chemical Physics,Lund University. Multidimensional fluorescence polarization imaging is used to study single LH2s. The method uses linearly polarized excitation light and the emission is detected through a polarizer. READ MORE
