  1. 1. Nanostructures Studied by Atomic Force Microscopy : Ion Tracks and Nanotextured Films

    Författare :Judit Kopniczky; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Lars Montelius; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; ion impact; surface tracks; electronic sputtering; WO3; nanoparticle; scanning probe microscopy; tapping mode; Fysik; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis concernes two sorts of nanostructures: energetic-ion-impact-induced surface tracks and gas-deposited WO3 nanoparticles. Our aims to characterise these nanostuctures and understand the physical principles behind their formation are of general interests for basic science as well as of the field of nanotechnology.

  2. 2. Advanced Fluorescence Microscopy to Study Plasma Membrane Protein Dynamics

    Författare :Joachim Piguet; Horst Vogel; Ruud Hovius; Jerker Widengren; Antoine Triller; Switzerland Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL); []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fluorescence; microscopy; plasma membrane; membrane proteins; membrane proteins diffusion; single-molecule imaging; single-molecule tracking; pentameric ligand-gated ion channels; nicotinic acetylcholine receptor; serotonin receptor; synapse; neuromuscular junction; post-synaptic scaffold; rapsyn; myopathies; fluorescent proteins; Förster resonance energy transfer; FRET imaging; protein-protein interactions; protein trafficking; photo-activatable proteins; Biological Physics; Biologisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Membrane protein dynamics is of great importance for living organisms. The precise localization of proteins composing a synapse on the membrane facing a nerve terminus is essential for proper functioning of the nervous system. In muscle fibers, the nicotinic acetylcholine is densely packed under the motor nerve termini. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Quantitative microscopy of coating uniformity

    Författare :Christina Dahlström; Tetsu Uesaka; Magnus Norgren; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Coating uniformity; coating microstructure uniformity; base sheet effects; argon ion beam milling; scanning electron microscopy; image analysis; binder distributions; autocorrelation analysis; random deposition process; simulation;

    Sammanfattning : Print quality demands for coated papers are steadily growing, and achieving coating uniformity is crucial for high image sharpness, colour fidelity, and print uniformity. Coating uniformity may be divided into two scales: coating thickness uniformity and coating microstructure uniformity, the latter of which includes pigment, pore and binder distributions within the coating layer.

  4. 4. Structural transitions of proton-gated ion channels : Involving pH sensing, heterogeneity and lipid interactions

    Författare :Urška Rovšnik; Erik Lindahl; Hugues Nury; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ion channels; cryo-electron microscopy; pH gating; simulations; structure-function relationship; GLIC; DeCLIC; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Studying protein structure and function involves analyzing the relationship between a protein's three-dimensional assembly and its dynamic biochemical activity. The superfamily of pentameric ligand-gated ion channels (pLGICs) constitutes a classic yet illuminating experimental system for structure-function studies. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Focused Ion Beam Preparation and Transmission Electron Microscopy of Materials for Energy Applications

    Författare :Filip Lenrick; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; transmission electron microscopy; focused ion beam; solid oxide materials; fuel cell; semiconductor materials; nanowire; LED; solar cell;

    Sammanfattning : Throughout this thesis, samples of various materials with applications in energy converting devices have been prepared by focused ion beam machining and investigated by transmission electron microscopy. Energy converting devices can be solar cells or light emitting diodes, which turn light into electricity or vice versa. LÄS MER
