  1. 6. Digital Mammography with a Photon Counting Detector in a Scanned Multislit Geometry

    Författare :Magnus Åslund; Mats Danielsson; Ehsan Samei; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mammography; digital; photon counting; scanning; detective quantum effciency; scattered radiation; automatic exposure control; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Mammography screening aims to reduce the number of breast cancer deaths by early detection of the disease, which is one of the leading causes of deaths for middle aged women in the western world. The risk from the x-ray radiation in mammography is relatively low but still a factor in the benefit-risk ratio of screening. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Improvements of SPECT by a new collimator design and simultaneous transmission-emission tomography

    Författare :Shahrokh Kimiaei; Marija Ivanovic; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Gamma camera; SPECT; Emission tomography; Transmission tomography; Planar-concave collimators; Spatial resolution; Other physics; Övrig fysik; medicinsk strålningsfysik; Medical Radiation Physics;

    Sammanfattning : SPECT (Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography) and planar scintigraphy are the most established and world wide-spread nuclear medicine imaging techniques for clinical use today. SPECT is a tomographic technique that allows 3-D visualization of biochemical processes or physiological flow in the human body by external detection of photons from an administered radiopharmaceutical.

  3. 8. Single Photon Sources and Single Quantum System enabled Communication

    Författare :Muhammad Alley Hameedi; Mohamed Bourennane; Nicolas Brunner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum information; quantum optics; quantum communication; single photon sources; fysik; Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Quantum information is a highly interesting and fast emerging field that involves processing information encoded into quantum systems and their subsequent use in various information tasks. The use of quantum resources such as superposition and entanglement have shown to enhance information processing capabilities beyond classical means in a number of communication, information and computation tasks.

  4. 9. Scanning Tunneling Microscopy Induced Luminescence Studies of Semiconductor Nanostructures

    Författare :Ulf Håkanson; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; transmission electron microscopy TEM ; III-V semiconductors; low-dimensional structures; nanostructures; single dot spectroscopy; Stranski-Krastanow; quantum dot QD ; Semiconductory physics; polarization; ordering; InP; GaInP; photon mapping; scanning tunneling microscopy STM ; scanning tunneling luminescence STL ; Halvledarfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:2003:Håkanson;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis treats scanning tunneling luminescence (STL) investigations of semiconductor nanostructures. The STL technique combines scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) with detection of photons, induced by the tunneling electrons. The high spatial resolution in STM and the local excitation allow for optical investigations on the nanometer-scale. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Quantum optics in superconducting circuits : Generating, engineering and detecting microwave photons

    Författare :Sankar Raman Sathyamoorthy; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; single photon source; superconducting circuits; single photon detector; cross-Kerr effect; Quantum optics; circuit QED;

    Sammanfattning : Quantum optics in superconducting circuits, known as circuit QED, studies the interaction of photons at microwave frequencies with artificial atoms made of Josephson junctions. Although quite young, remarkable progress has been made in this field over the past decade, especially given the interest in building a quantum computer using superconducting circuits. LÄS MER
