  1. 1. Design and Performance of Some Components for a Millimeter Wave Imaging Receiver

    Author : Guillermo F. Delgado Gunckel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nipi MQW; imaging receiver; lens shaping; diplexer; kinoform; opto-electronic quasi-optical modulation; dielectric lenses; sideband filter; diffractive optics;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the design and performance of some novel devices for an imaging receiver, operating in the frequency band centered at 100 GHz, to be used in radio astronomy research. The emphasis is given on simple, small and reliable devices in order to reduce the complexity of an already complex receiver. READ MORE

  2. 2. Bridging Local Constraints and Global Priorities : The Shaping of Swedish Biogas Markets

  3. 3. Public Sector Open Data : Shaping an arena for innovation and value creation

    Author : Josefin Lassinantti; Debra Howcroft; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Informationssystem; Information Systems; Informatik; Social Informatics;

    Abstract : This research initially sprung out of a natural curiosity for the emerging phenomenon of open data with its combination of democratic perspectives, since it is based on freedom of information legislation, and its potential for a multitude of citizen driven innovations. Research showed that while open data repeatedly was being envisioned for having immense potential of leading to a multitude of innovations and societal impacts, most of the attention still remained on challenges related to enable a broad realisation of open data, that is, putting more data on the web.
