  2. 16. Surface Stabilization and Electrochemical Properties from a Theoretical Perspective

    Author : Daniel Petrini; Karin Larsson; Jan-Otto Carlsson; Martin Stutzmann; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Inorganic chemistry; DFT; Diamond; High surface conductivity; Surface reactivity; c-BN; Oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Diamond and cubic boron nitride surfaces have extreme properties that can be exploited in novel tribological, electrochemical and electronic applications. Normally insulating diamond surfaces can exhibit high surface conductivities due to hydrogen termination and the nature of the surrounding atmosphere. READ MORE

  4. 17. Growth and characterization of SiC and GaN

    Author : Rafal Ciechonski; Erik Janzén; Sebastian Lourdudoss; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SiC; GaN; Deep level transient spectroscopy; Minority Carrier Transient Spectroscopy; Hall effect; Cathodoluminescence; Scanning electron microscopy; Atomic Force microscopy; sublimation growth; MOCVD; heterostructures; High Electron Mobility transistor; point defects; Material physics with surface physics; Materialfysik med ytfysik;

    Abstract : At present, focus of the SiC crystal growth development is on improving the crystalline quality without polytype inclusions, micropipes and the occurrence of extended defects. The purity of the grown material, as well as intentional doping must be well controlled and the processes understood. READ MORE

  5. 18. Forest-stream linkages : Experimental studies of foraging and growth of brown trout (Salmo trutta L)

    Author : Pär Gustafsson; Eva Bergman; Larry Greenberg; John Armstrong; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Brown trout; diet; growth; riparian zone; forest-stream linkages; terrestrial invertebrates; light; primary production; Biology; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Riparian vegetation along streams and rivers affects the aquatic community in numerous ways and often operates as a link for energy flux between forest and streams. The studies presented in this licentiate thesis focus on light and terrestrial invertebrates, two factors influenced by riparian zone structure, which potentially affect stream ecosystems and thus also brown trout (Salmo trutta).

  6. 19. Alumina Thin Film Growth: Experiments and Modeling

    Author : Erik Wallin; Ulf Helmersson; Denis Music; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Alumina; Reactive sputtering; Phase formation; Residual water; Surface adsorption; Density functional theory; Material physics with surface physics; Materialfysik med ytfysik;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis deals with experimental and theoretical studies related to the growth of crystalline alumina thin films. Alumina, Al2O3, is a polymorphic material utilized in a variety of applications, e.g., in the form of thin films. READ MORE

  7. 20. Metastable Alumina from Theory: Bulk, Surface, and Growth of κ-Al2O3

    Author : Carlo Ruberto; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; density-functional theory; structure; cutting tools; plane waves; first principles; stability; one-dimensional electron gas; DFT; Tasker s rules; ionic crystals; polar surfaces; adsorption; pseudopotentials; Pauling s rules; bonding; surface states; TiC; ceramic materials;

    Abstract : Aluminas are materials of high technological importance that show a fascinating structural flexibility, with a large amount of different phases (alpha, gamma, eta, delta, kappa, chi, ...) and phase transitions at relatively high temperatures. READ MORE
