  2. 1. Combined Molecular Dynamics and Embedded-Cluster Calculations in Metal Oxide Surface Chemistry

    Author : Björn Herschend; Kersti Hermansson; Micael Baudin; Joachim Sauer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Inorganic chemistry; embedded-cluster; ab initio; molecular dynamics; metal oxide; ceria; magnesium oxide; adsorption; surface defect; Oorganisk kemi; Inorganic chemistry; Oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : The development and improvement of the functionality of metal oxides in heterogeneous catalysis and other surface chemical processes can greatly benefit from an atomic-level understanding of the surface chemistry. Atomistic calculations such as quantum mechanical (QM) calculations and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations can provide highly detailed information about the atomic and electronic structure, and constitute valuable complements to experimental surface science techniques.

  5. 3. Methods for evaluation of early bone healing at titanium implants

    Author : Karin Hederstierna; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : TOF-SIMS; titanium; porosity; Magnesium; hydroxyapatite; implant surface; bone resorption; bone formation;

    Abstract : Titanium has for a long time been the implant material of choice when in need for abilities as strength, biocompatibility and stability. Although numbers of studies have been made, little is known about the early events in implant healing. The primary aim in this thesis was to develop methods for evaluating bone healing around implants. READ MORE

  6. 4. Chemical-Looping Combustion with Solid Fuels

    Author : Henrik Leion; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; petroleum coke; fluidized bed; oxygen carrier; ilmenite; volatiles; gasification; sulphur dioxide; coal; iron oxide; chemical looping combustion; CLC;

    Abstract : In order to meet the global demand of CO2 neutral energy production, chemical-looping combustion could play an important role. With this technique it is possible to capture CO2 without an excessive energy penalty. READ MORE

  7. 5. Magnesium Diboride (MgB2) and Ca-doped YBa2Cu3O7-? : Thin Films and Devices. Fabrication and Characterization

    Author : Anayesu Malisa; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ca-doped YBa2Cu3O7-?; MgB2; bicrystal; superconductor; nanobridge; thin film; Josephson effect; Josephson junction;

    Abstract : Magnesium diboride (MgB2) is a superconductor with an exceptionally high transition temperature, Tc, of 39 K. This work describes deposition of high quality and superconducting films of MgB2 for electronic applications. Experiments on Ca-doped YBa2Cu3O7-? films and fabrication of bicrystal Josephson junctions are also described. READ MORE
