11. Using Low Energy Light to Enable High Energy Photochemistry
Sammanfattning : Manipulating light to meet human needs is pivotal in various research fields and technological applications, ranging from solar energy conversion to photodynamic therapy and fluorescence imaging of cells and tissues. This thesis addresses the spectral mismatches between available light and the specific energy requirements of target photochemical reactions by employing low-energy light to control high-energy photochemistry.

12. Nanostructured Cellulose Biocomposites : Effects from dispersion, network and interface
Sammanfattning : The major load bearing component in native wood, cellulose nanofibrils, are potential candidates for use as reinforcement in polymer matrices. This study is based on nanocellulose composites and attempts to prepare and characterize biocomposites with high nanocellulose content and investigate the influence of nanostructure on macroscopic properties.

13. Surface Modification of Nanocellulose towards Composite Applications
Sammanfattning : Nanocelluloses have attracted great interest during recent decades owing to their renewability, abundancy and remarkable physical and mechanical properties. The aim of this work was to investigate new strategies for surface modification and functionalization of nanocelluloses and their subsequent incorporation in polymer-host matrices. LÄS MER
14. Building crystals out of crystals : Synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of iron oxide nanoparticles and self-assembled mesocrystals
Sammanfattning : This thesis is focused on the fabrication and characterization of self-assembled arrays of magnetic iron oxide (Fe3O4, γ-Fe2O3 and Fe1-xO) nanoparticles. The synthesis of spherical and cubic iron oxide nanocrystals, with sizes between 5 and 30 nm and narrow size distributions, is demonstrated, along with a rigorous morphological characterization of the cubic nanoparticles.
