  2. 1. Conjugated Polymers for Neural Interfaces : Prospects, possibilities and future challenges

    Author : Maria Asplund; Hans von Holst; Olle Inganäs; Thomas Stieglitz; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; neuroprosthetics; conjugated polymers; conducting polymers; PEDOT; functional electrical stimulation; neural electrodes; Medical engineering; Medicinsk teknik; Neuroscience; Neurovetenskap; Functional materials; Funktionella material;

    Abstract : Within the field of neuroprosthetics the possibility to use implanted electrodes for communication with the nervous system is explored. Much effort is put into the material aspects of the electrode implant to increase charge injection capacity, suppress foreign body response and build micro sized electrode arrays allowing close contact with neurons.

  4. 2. The role of biobased building materials in the climate impacts of construction : Effects of increased use of biobased materials in the Swedish building sector

    Author : Diego Peñaloza; Magnus Wålinder; Martin Erlandsson; Andreas Falk; Johanna Berlin; Dimitris Athanassiadis; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LCA; timber buildings; timber bridges; biobased building materials; dynamic LCA; climate change mitigation; building stock; scenario analysis; biogenic carbon; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : A significant share of the global climate change impacts can be attributed to the construction sector. One mitigation strategy is increasing the use of biobased materials. Life cycle assessment (LCA) has been used to demonstrate the benefits of this, but forest complexities create uncertainty due to omission of key aspects. READ MORE

  5. 3. First Principles Calculations of Electron Transport and Structural Damage by Intense Irradiation

    Author : Carlos Ortiz; Olle Eriksson; Mattias Klintenberg; Richard A. London; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Condense matter theory; electronic structure; quasiparticles; GW theory; molecular dynamics; Boltzmann transport; electron transport; impact ionization; structural damage; dielectric response; structural biology; radiation detectors; scintillators; positron emission tommography; Electronic structure; Elektronstruktur; Semiconductor physics; Halvledarfysik; Biological physics; Biologisk fysik; Critical phenomena phase transitions ; Kritiska fenomen fasövergångar ; Functional materials; Funktionella material; Materiefysik; Physics of Matter;

    Abstract : First principle electronic structure theory is used to describe the effect of crystal binding on radiation detectors, electron transport properties, and structural damage induced by intense irradiation. A large database containing general electronic structure results to which data mining algorithms can be applied in the search for new functional materials, a case study is presented for scintillator detector materials.

  6. 4. Evaluation of biomedical microwave sensors : Microwave sensors as muscle quality discriminators in laboratory and pilot clinical trial settings

    Author : Viktor Mattsson; Robin Augustine; Mauricio Perez; Roger Karlsson; Ayca Özcelikkale; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Microwave sensors; Sarcopenia; Muscle quality assessment; Biomedical applications; Tissue dielectric properties; Data-driven modelling; Clinical trials; EM Simulations; Phantom experiments; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektronik; Engineering Science with specialization in Electronics;

    Abstract : In this thesis the primary focus is on the evaluation of biomedical microwave sensor to be used in the muscle analyzer system. Lower muscle quality is one indicator that a patient can have sarcopenia. Therefore the muscle analyzer system can be a tool used in screening for sarcopenia. READ MORE

  7. 5. Liquid Exfoliation of Molybdenum Disulfide for Inkjet Printing
