1. Low-coordinate Organosilicon Chemistry : Fundamentals, Excursions Outside the Field, and Potential Applications
Sammanfattning : This thesis reports on unsaturated silicon compounds, as well as excursions from these into germanium chemistry, single molecule electronics, and silyl protective group chemistry. Both experimental and computational investigations were performed. LÄS MER
2. Conjugation in Organic Group 14 Element Compounds : Design, Synthesis and Experimental Evaluation
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the chemical concept of conjugation, i.e., electron delocalization, and the effect it has on electronic and optical properties of molecules. LÄS MER
3. Hyperconjugation in Group 14 Organic Compounds : Design and Property Investigations
Sammanfattning : Nowadays π-conjugated molecules are widely used as materials for devices in organic and molecular electronics. This is due to the ability of such molecules to conduct electricity. However, π-conjugation leads to molecular rigidness and associated lower solubility, which limits possible applications. LÄS MER
4. Computational Studies of Electron Transport in Nanoscale Devices
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, a combination of density functional theory (DFT) based calculations and nonequilibrium Green’s functions are employed to investigate electron transport in molecular switches, molecular cords and nanoscale devices. Molecular electronic devices have been proposed as an approach to complement today’s silicon based electronic devices. LÄS MER
5. Study of Catalyst Deactivation in Three Different Industrial Processes
Sammanfattning : Deactivation of catalysts were investigated focusing on three industrial processes: 1) Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) for abatement of NOx from biomass combustion using V2O5-WO3 /TiO2 catalysts; 2) Catalytic oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from printing industries using a Pt/γ-Al2O3 catalyst; and 3) Ni and Pt/Rh catalysts used in steam reforming reaction of bio-syngas obtained from biomass gasification.The aim has been to simulate industrial conditions in laboratory experiments in order to comprehend influence of compounds affecting catalysts performance.
