21. Photodynamic therapy and laser-based diagnostic studies of malignant tumours
Sammanfattning : Two non-thermal regimens of light interaction with biological tissue, that are in a natural way connected, are discussed in the present thesis. These are photodynamic therapy (PDT) for the treatment of malignant tumours and laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) for tissue characterization. LÄS MER
22. Towards single Ce ion detection in a bulk crystal for the development of a single-ion qubit readout scheme
Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis was concerned with investigating the relevant spectroscopic properties of Ce ions randomly doped in an Y2SiO5 crystal at low temperatures (around 4 K), in order to develop a technique and an experimental set-up to detect the fluorescence photons emitted by a single Ce ion. The aim of the work was to determine whether a single Ce ion (referred to as the readout ion) can be used as a local probe to sense the quantum state of a neighbouring single-ion qubit via a state-selective interaction between the readout and qubit ion.

23. Development of Laser-Induced Fluorescence for Precombustion Diagnostics in Spark-Ignition Engines
Sammanfattning : Motivated by a desire to understand and optimize combustion in spark-ignition (SI) engines, laser techniques have been developed for measurement of fuel and residual gas, respectively, in the precombustion mixture of an operating SI engine. The primary objective was to obtain two-dimensional, quantitative data in the vicinity of the spark gap at the time of ignition. LÄS MER
24. DEVELOPMENT OF A HIGH ENERGY TI:SAPPHIRE LASER FOR THE EXCITATION OF EXTREME ULTRAVIOLET LASERS
Sammanfattning : This dissertation describes the design, construction and characterization of a high energy chirped-pulse amplification Titanium-Sapphire laser system for the excitation of Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) lasers. Compact EUV lasers have made possible nano-scale imaging, dense plasma diagnostics and photo-chemistry and photo-physics studies. LÄS MER
25. Short-Pulse Photofragmentation and Fluorescence-based Diagnostics - Development and Applications
Sammanfattning : The work presented in the thesis covers the use of laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) and photofragmentation laser-induced fluorescence (PFLIF) with short laser pulses to determine species concentrations in different combustion environments. To attain quantitative species concentrations using LIF investigations of the influence of collisional quenching on the fluorescence signal strength is of vital importance, which can be done by measuring the fluorescence lifetime.
