1. Synthesis and Characterization of Multifunctional Carbide- and Boride-based Thin Films
Sammanfattning : This thesis present research on synthesis, microstructure, and properties of carbide- and boride- based thin films. The films have been synthesized by dc magnetron sputtering, and their microstructures have been characterized mainly by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy.

2. Microstructure of Nickel-Chromium Superalloys
Sammanfattning : The microstructure of nickel-chromium superalloys has been investigated using several advanced microanalytical techniques; atom probe field ion microscopy (APFIM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) together with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) and optical microscopy (OM). The features primarily considered include precipitation, segregation and ordering. LÄS MER
3. Atom Probe Tomography of Hard Nitride and Boride Thin Films
Sammanfattning : Hard ceramic thin films, including TiSiN, ZrAlN, ZrB2, and ZrTaB2, with applications for wear-resistant coatings, have been studied using atom probe tomography and correlated with several other analytical techniques, including X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and elastic recoil detection analysis. Outstanding obstacles for quantitative atom probe tomography of ceramic thin films have been surmounted. LÄS MER
4. A critical survey of the grain refining mechanisms of aluminium
Sammanfattning : In the present work, several possible interpretations of the grain refining mechanisms of aluminium castings after additions of titanium and boron are compared with the results of critical test experiments. The presence of B does not seem to affect the binary Al-Ti phase diagram close to the A1 comer, except for formation of boride phase. LÄS MER
5. Organic Azides : Functional Molecules and Materials
Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis stems from the chemistry of the azido group, and more specifically from the unique reactivity of perfluorinated aromatic azides and how to use this reactivity to access new types of molecules to enable new applications in asymmetric synthesis and materials.In the first section of this thesis, a photoactivatable fluorescence probe is presented, where the non-luminescent azide was activated via a UV-light-promoted intramolecular N–H insertion reaction forming a fluorescence emitter.
