    Abstract : The hydrogen economy proposes hydrogen gas as the main energy carrier thanks to its high energy density and the possibility to produce it in a sustainable way without CO2 emission. However, the wide flammability range of hydrogen-air mixtures dictates that hydrogen sensors will be a mandatory accessory to any appliance or vehicle fueled by hydrogen. READ MORE

  3. 3. Nanoplasmonics for Absorption Engineering and Hydrogen Sensing

    Author : Carl Wadell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; palladium; hydrogen storage; absorption engineering; nanoplasmonic sensing; nanosize effects; plasmon enhanced chemistry; Localized surface plasmon resonance;

    Abstract : When light interacts with metallic nanoparticles smaller than its wavelength it can excite a collective oscillation of the conduction electrons that gives rise to efficient light absorption and scattering. Moreover, locally strongly enhanced electric fields are created around the particles. READ MORE

  4. 4. Studies of catalyst sintering during operating conditions

    Author : Pooya Tabib Zadeh Adibi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanoparticle sintering; operando spectroscopy; catalyst deactivation; indirect nanoplasmonic sensing; platinum; sintering kinetics;

    Abstract : The damaging effect of pollutants from exhaust gas of combustion engines on the human health and the environment is well recognized. Since the 70s, the three-way catalytic converter (TWC) has substantially improved the urban air quality by simultaneous conversion of CO, NOx and unburned hydrocarbons to O2 , N2 , CO2 and H2O.
