    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; perovskite solar cell; photovoltaic device; lead-free light absorbers; hole-transport materials; coordination complexes; p-type dopants; organic salts; surface passivation.; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Energy plays a significant role in our daily lives, but most energy provided by fossil fuels causes serious environmental problems including air pollution, global warming, and ecological damage. In addition, it has been estimated that all of our fossil fuels will run out in 2088 and thus it is highly important to study and apply renewable energy sources. READ MORE

  4. 4. Structural and functional studies of streptococcal surface adhesins

    Author : Åsa Nylander; Karina Persson; Maria Selmer; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The oral cavity is home to an array of microorganisms that are associated with dental plaque. Some Gram-positive bacteria are common inhabitants of the oral cavity and in order to colonize such a unique environment adhesion becomes essential and is accomplish by adhesins expressed on the bacterial surface.
