21. Flame nanoengineering of antibiofilm surfaces for medical implants
Sammanfattning : Infection of bone implants is a major problem in the Healthcare sector today. Over the last years it has started to become more problematic due to biofilm formation and increasing antimicrobial resistance (AMR). A biofilm provides mechanical shielding to bacteria by ingulfing them leading to a less effective treatment with antibiotics. LÄS MER
22. Multifunctional Biomimetic Scaffolds Tailored for Cardiac Regeneration
Sammanfattning : Nature has had millions of years to perfect the structural components of the human body, but has also produced the dysfunctions that result in the cancers and diseases, which ruin that perfection. Congenital heart defects, and myocardial infarction lead to scarring that remodels heart muscle, decreasing the contractility of the heart, with profound consequences for the host. LÄS MER
23. ON THE COUPLING OF THE LOCALIZED PLASMON AND INTERBAND TRANSITIONS IN NICKEL NANOANTENNAS
Sammanfattning : Interaction of light with metallic nanostructures smaller than the wavelength leads to excitation of collective oscillations of “free” conduction electrons. This effect leads to locally enhanced electric fields inside and outside the nanoparticle and is called localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). LÄS MER
24. Functional Fiber Based Materials for Microsystem Applications
Sammanfattning : This thesis explores the integration of functional electrospun micro- and nanofiber based materials in two fields of microsystem technology: fibrous scaffolds as cell culture substrates and fiber-reinforced metal matrix composites as thermal interface materials (TIMs).Electrospun structures have been found to carry great potential as biomimicking microenvironments for future tissue engineering and cell culture applications.

25. Development of a process model for a Peirce-Smith converter
Sammanfattning : Copper was one of the first metals ever extracted and used by mankind. It is used for its unique properties, like corrosion resistance, good workability, high thermal conductivity and attractive appearance. New mines are opened to maintain a supply of primary feedstock to copper smelters. LÄS MER
