  2. 1. Fast-tunable resonators and quantum electrical circuits

    Author : Martin Sandberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SEB; tunable; Sisyphus resistance; CPW; Resonator; SCB; qubit; circuit-QED; transmon; SQUID;

    Abstract : In this thesis, measurements on superconducting electrical circuits that exhibit quantum mechanical effects are presented. Nonlinear superconducting circuits can be regarded as artificial atoms with energy spectra that can be engineered. The artificial atoms can be used as quantum bits for quantum computation. READ MORE

  4. 2. Self-assembly of magnetic particles

    Author : Hauke Carstensen; Max Wolff; Vassilios Kapaklis; Björgvin Hjörvarsson; Benjamin Yellen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; self-assembly; tunable interactions; phase transition; ferrofluid; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Self-assembly is the spontaneous formation of larger structures from small building blocks. This process is driven and determined by the interactions between the constituents. READ MORE

    Abstract : Knowledge about mechanisms behind interactions of molecules with biomembranes and cellular uptake is very important for understanding biological processes and for drug design. The work described in this thesis has focused on interactions of cellular dyes and bioactive peptides with cells and the cell membrane. READ MORE

  7. 5. Synthesising colloidal molecules with tunable interactions from soft responsive microgel particles

    Author : Linda Månsson; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microgels; polymers; colloids; colloidal synthesis; self-assembly; material scaince; confocal microscopy; light scattering; microgels; polymers; colloids; colloidal synthesis; self-assembly; material science; confocal microscopy; light scattering;

    Abstract : Colloidal self-assembly is an attractive bottom-up approach to new superstructures and materials with new properties. However, the typical spherical shape and isotropic interaction potential limit the repertoire of ordered structures that can be obtained from synthetic colloids. READ MORE
