2. 1. Microstructure and Wear of CVD Coatings used in Metal Cutting Applications

   Author : Andreas Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MTCVD; Ca-treated steel; EFTEM; CVD; TEM; Ti C; alfa-Al2O3; gamma-Al2O3; wear; kappa-Al2O3; N ; EELS;

   Abstract : This thesis is concerned with the microstructural characterisation of wear resistant Al2O3 and Ti(C,N)coatings produced by chemical vapour deposition on cemented carbide cutting tools. The investigation focuses on the effect of deposition conditions on the microstructure and the microstructural evolution of the coatings during heat-treatments and metal cutting. READ MORE

4. 2. Effects of Antioxidant and Lipid Lowering Treatment on Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Disease : With special reference to Mixed Tocopherols and Stable Fish Oil

   Author : Meilin Liu; Afaf Kamal-Eldin; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; Cardiovascular disease; Antioxidants; Tocopherols; Endothelial constitutive nitric oxide synthase; Superoxide dismutase; Protein kinase C; Fish oils; Fatty acids; Simvastatin; Lipoprotein; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin; rättsmedicin; Forensic Medicine;

   Abstract : Vitamin E in food, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and lipid lowering treatment with statins have been found to decrease the risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cardiac death. However, clinical trials revealed no beneficial effect of intake of alpha-tocopherol alone. READ MORE

5. 3. Atom Probe Field Ion Microscopy of Surface Zones, Coatings and Interfaces

   Author : Anders Kvist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ag GaAs; ohmiccontact; Au GaAs; Schottky contact; Cu3Au; APFIM; AuGe GaAs; gradient sintering; cemented carbides; CVD;

   Abstract : This thesis is focused on developingmethods for high resolution microanalysis of coatings on a substrate, andsurface zones of a bulk sample using atom probe field ion microscopy,APFIM. The APFIM technique is described and some examples of its applications to semiconductors,cemented carbides and intermetallic compounds are given. READ MORE

6. 4. Dietary intake of naturally occurring plant sterols in relation to serum cholesterol and myocardial infarction - Epidemiological studies from Sweden and the UK

   Author : Sofia Klingberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; plant sterols; dietary intake; food sources; serum cholesterol; CVD; myocardial infarction; nutrition; epidemiology;

   Abstract : Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death in the world. High serum level of cholesterol is one of the major risk factors for CVD development. Serum levels of cholesterol can be modified by diet. READ MORE

7. 5. Source and drain engineering in SiGe-based pMOS transistors

   Author : Christian Isheden; Mikael Östling; Simon Deleonibus; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electronics; SiGe; source drain; shallow junctions; pMOS; process integration; CVD; epitaxy; etching; Ni silicide; contact resistivity; Elektronik; Electronics; Elektronik;

   Abstract : A new shallow junction formation process, based on selective silicon etching followed by selective growth of in situ B-doped SiGe, is presented. The approach is advantageous compared to conventional ion implantation followed by thermal activation, because perfectly abrupt, low resistivity junctions of arbitrary depth can be obtained. READ MORE
