  1. 1. Low temperature acclimation in plants : alterations in photosynthetic carbon metabolism

    Author : Maria Lundmark; Vaughan Hurry; Charles Guy; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : Plant physiology; cold acclimation; carbon metabolism; photosynthesis; respiration; Växtfysiologi; Physiological Botany; fysiologisk botanik;

    Abstract : Although low temperature plays an important role in determining agricultural yield, little is known about the effect on the underlying biochemical and physiological processes that influence plant growth. Photosynthesis and respiration are central to plant growth and both processes are heavily affected by temperature. READ MORE

  2. 2. Nanostructured carbon-based thin films : prediction and design

    Author : Cecilia Goyenola; Gueorgui K. Gueorguiev; Lars Hultman; Sven Stafström; Yury Gogotsi; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; carbon; carbon-based; thin films; fullerene-like; modeling; dft;

    Abstract : Carbon-based thin films are a vast group of materials of great technological importance. Thanks to the different bonding options for carbon, a large variety of structures (from amorphous to nanostructured) can be achieved in the process of film synthesis. READ MORE

  3. 3. Carbon Nitride : Characterization and Protein Interactions

    Author : Torun Berlind; Hans Arwin; Pentti Tengvall; Hans Hultman; Thomas E. Tiwald; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns synthesis and characterization of carbon-based materials and theinvestigation of the possible use, of a selection of these materials, in biomedicalapplications. Protein adsorption and blood plasma tests were used for this purposeutilizing a surface sensitive technique called spectroscopic ellipsometry. READ MORE

  5. 5. Lowcoordinated Silicon and Hypercoordinated Carbon : Structure and Stability of Silicon Analogs of Alkenes and Carbon Analogs of Silicates

    Author : Anders M. Eklöf; Henrik Ottosson; Sten Lunell; Thomas Müller; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; silenes; zwitterionic silenes; silenolates; reverse polarization; natural resonance theory; hypervalent carbon; hypercoordinated carbon; thermolysis; lowcoordinated silicon; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Abstract : Quantum chemical studies on lowcoordinated group 14-16 compounds have been performed. This thesis focuses particularly on silenes influenced by reverse Siδ-=Cδ+ bond polarization. Hypercoordinated carbon compounds are also studied. READ MORE
