  2. 1. Effects of Energetic Disorder on the Optoelectronic Properties of Organic Solar Cells

    Author : Nikolaos Felekidis; Martijn Kemerink; Olle Inganäs; Carsten Deibel; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) is a promising low-cost and environmental-friendly technology currently achieving 12-14% power conversion efficiency. Despite the extensive focus of the research community over the last years, critical mechanisms defining the performance of OPVs are still topics of debate. READ MORE

    Abstract : X-ray computed tomography (CT) is a widely used imaging modality that enables visualization of nearly every part of the human body. It is used for diagnosis of disease and injury as well as medical treatment planning. READ MORE

  5. 3. Techniques for the determination of the optimal performance of high resolution computerised tomography

    Author : Peter Hammersberg; Holger Reiter; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Techniques to deternine the optimal performance of high resolution computerised tomography (CT) has been studied, that is, optimal data collection parameter settings for the imaging task at issue and its detectability limits.Generally, CT is an X-ray based non-destructive testing method that was developed for medical purposes in the seventies and introduced for industrial applications the latter half of the eighties.

    Abstract : Computed tomography (CT) is a widely used medical imaging modality. By rotating an x-ray tube and an x-ray detector around the patient, a CT scanner is able to measure the x-ray transmission from all directions and form an image of the patient’s interior. READ MORE

  7. 5. Quality assurance for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in radiotherapy

    Author : Mary Adjeiwaah; Tufve Nyholm; Rob HN Tijssen; Umeå universitet; []
