  2. 1. Design and characterization of nanoparticles and their assemblies : Transmission electron microscopy investigations from atomic to mesoscopic length scales

    Author : Arnaud Mayence; Lennart Bergström; Liberato Manna; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanoparticles; electron microscopy; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is a powerful and versatile tool for investigating nanomaterials. In this thesis, various transmission electron microscopy techniques are used to study the chemical and structural features of different types of inorganic nanoparticles of well-defined morphologies as well as their assemblies.

  4. 2. Plasma Synthesis and Self-Assembly of Magnetic Nanoparticles

    Author : Sebastian Ekeroth; Ulf Helmersson; Nils Brenning; Franz Faupel; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plasma; Synthesis; Self-Assembly; Magnetic; Nanoparticles;

    Abstract : Nanomaterials are important tools for enabling technological progress as they can provide dramatically different properties as compared to the bulk counterparts. The field of nanoparticles is one of the most investigated within nanomaterials, thanks to the existing, relatively simple, means of manufacturing. READ MORE

  5. 3. Hot-carrier generation and strong coupling in metal nanoparticles

    Author : Jakub Fojt; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hot carriers; strong coupling; nanoparticles; nanoplasmonics;

    Abstract : Metal nanoparticles are an emerging platform for energy applications such as photovoltaics, solar-to-fuel conversion and photocatalysis. Nanoparticles confine the oscillating electromagnetic field of visible light to very small volumes, which allows for efficient absorption and scattering of light in the solar spectral range.

  6. 4. Cellulose Nanofibril-based Hybrid Materials : Eco-friendly design towards separation and packaging applications

    Author : Luis Valencia; Aji Mathew; Olli Ikkala; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cellulose nanofibrils; hybrid materials; membranes; aerogels; separation; food packaging; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : Nanocellulose has been lately considered as the “Holy-Grail” in the design of sustainable materials due to its bio-origin and an unprecedented combination of prominent features, including good mechanical properties, anisotropy and versatile surface chemistry. In addition, nanocellulose in the form of cellulose nanofibrils, can adopt variable structures and morphologies depending on the processing technique, such as aerogels, films and monoliths.

    Abstract : The idea to use molecules as a basic building block in electronic circuits was developed about 50 years ago when a molecular rectifier was developed, but it has been a challenge for this field to make its way to real-world application. Now, due to the advancement in technologies, the properties of single molecules are better understandable and controllable. READ MORE
