  2. 1. Theoretical Studies on Vibrationally Resolved Optical Spectra of Polycyclic Aromatic Molecules

    Author : Junfeng Li; Yi Luo; Antonio Rizzo; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Theoretical study; optical spectra; vibronic effect; polycyclic aromatic molecules; Theoretical Chemistry and Biology; Teoretisk kemi och biologi;

    Abstract : Polycyclic aromatic molecules are of great interest owing to their many important applications in chemistry and have therefore been the focus of investigations for over half a century with spectroscopic techniques. This thesis is devoted to the modeling of vibrationally resolved optical spectra of polycyclic aromatic molecules. READ MORE

  4. 2. Signaling for Optical Intensity Channels

    Author : Johnny Karout; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lattice codes; mutual information; intensity modulation; noncoherent communications; Direct detection; sphere packing.; infrared communications; free-space optical communications; fiber-optical communications;

    Abstract : With the growing popularity of social media services, e-commerce, and many other internet-based services, we are witnessing a rapid growth in the deployment of data centers and cloud computing platforms. As a result, the telecommunications industry has to continue providing additional network capacity to meet the increasing demand for bandwidth. READ MORE

  5. 3. Optical modelling of conjugated polymers : from materials to devices

    Author : Nils-Krister Persson; Andy Monkman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Spectroscopic ellipsomctry; optical modelling; organic solar cell; conjugated polymer; polyfluorene; polythiophene; copolymer; fullerene blend; photovoltaic device; dielectric function; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Measurements and modelling of theoretical properties of polymer-based photovoltaic devices, PPVDs, are the subjects of this thesis. Modelling refers both to modelling of materials, based on extraction of the dielectric function, and to modelling of devices by computer simulation of the optical electrical field inside PPVDs.

  6. 4. Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy of Metal Nanostructures

    Author : Juris Prikulis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanoparticles; surface plasmon resonance; surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy; near-field optical microscopy; optical tweezers;

    Abstract : Noble metal structures with size in the sub 100 nm range exhibit extraordinary optical properties due to collective oscillations of conduction electrons, the surface plasmon resonances (SPR). The most remarkable feature of these structures is the ability to redistribute electromagnetic radiation and concentrate strong fields near the surface. READ MORE

  7. 5. Optical Spectroscopy on Correlated Electron Materials

    Author : Johan Bielecki; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dynamics; optical spectroscopy; colossal magnetoresistance; magnetism; transition metal oxides; high temperature superconductivity;

    Abstract : Strongly correlated materials poses a great challenge to our microscopic understanding of matter, mainly due to the inability of perturbative methods to predict the properties of such materials. This inability stems from strong correlations between electronic, lattice and spin degrees of freedom, leading to a variety of complex and exotic phenomena such as (unconventional) superconductivity, metal-insulator transitions, non-Fermi liquid behavior and colossal magnetoresistance.
