1. Density Functional Theory Studies of Small Supported Gold Clusters and Related Questions : What a Difference an Atom Makes
Sammanfattning : During the last decades the specific manipulation of matter on the (sub-) nanometer scale, also known as nanoscience, became possible by technologies such as the scanning tunneling microscope. Nanocatalysts, i.e. catalytic active structures of up to a few nanometers in size, belong to this rather new class of materials. LÄS MER
2. Theoretical studies of lattice- and spin-polarons
Sammanfattning : Theoretical studies of lattice- and spin-polarons are presented in this thesis, where the primary tool is ab-initio electronic structure calculations. The studies are performed with employment of a variety of analytical and computational methods. LÄS MER
3. Multiscale modeling of nitride fuels
Sammanfattning : Nitride fuels have always been considered a good candidate for GENIV reactors, as well as space reactors, due to their high fissile density, highthermal conductivity and high melting point. In these concepts, not beingcompatible with water is not a significant problem. LÄS MER
4. First-principles studies of kinetic effects in energy-related materials
Sammanfattning : Quantum mechanical calculations based on first-principles (lat. ab initio) methods have over the past decades proved very successful for the study of many materials properties. LÄS MER
5. The Effect of Boron in Metal Borides and BN : A Theoretical Approach
