  1. 1. Frustrated magnetism in icosahedral structures : The influence of order-disorder in quasicrystals and approximant crystals

    Author : Fernand Denoel; Roland Mathieu; Marc de Boissieu; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; quasicrystals; approximant crystals; spin glasses; SQUID magnetometry; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Abstract : This work will begin with an introduction to quasicrystals (QCs) and their structure, defining the unit cell-equivalent for icosahedral quasiperiodicity: a 3D tiling based on the golden ratio and aperiodic in all three dimensions. We briefly present the cut-and-project method used to generate QCs from a higher dimension hypercrystal, and how to build the 3D Penrose tilings, composed of the two golden rhombohedra. READ MORE

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; continuous rotation electron diffraction; metal-organic frameworks; flexibility; rotational dynamics; atomic displacement parameters; anisotropic refinement; oorganisk kemi; Inorganic Chemistry;

    Abstract : Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent a class of 3D crystalline porous materials composed of organic linkers and metal nodes. Over the years, tens of thousands of MOF architectures have been developed, addressing various applications such as gas storage and separation, catalysis, chemical sensing, ion exchange and drug delivery.

  4. 4. Defect Engineering in Kesterite Materials for Thin Film Solar Cells

    Author : Katharina Rudisch; Jonathan J. Scragg; Alain Lafond; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CZTS; thin film solar cells; defect engineering; composition-spread films; order disorder transition; intrinsic defects; secondary phases; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektronik; Engineering Science with specialization in Electronics;

    Abstract : Cu2ZnSnS4 has great potential to be applied as an earth abundant and non-toxic absorber material in thin film solar cells, based on its suitable optical properties. However, several challenges have prevented the achievable efficiencies from exceeding 12.6 %, which is well below marketable efficiencies compared to competing solar cell technologies. READ MORE

  5. 5. Microstructural Evolution In As-cast Alloys during Plastic Deformation

    Author : Mitra Basirat; Pär Jönsson; Hasse Fredriksson; Jacques Lacaze; KTH; []
