16. Contributions to the Study of Nonlinear Optics
Sammanfattning : Nonlinear optics, the study of how high intensity light propagates through and interacts with matter, is a subject which is rich in scientific problems and offers many technologically important applications. In this thesis, a number of physical and mathematical problems concerning nonlinear Kerr media are addressed. LÄS MER
17. Pulsed laser ablation studied using digital holography
Sammanfattning : Pulsed digital holographic interferometry has been used to study the plume and the shock wave generated in the laser ablation process on different targets under atmospheric air pressure. A pulsed Nd-YAG laser system (pulse duration 12 ns) has been used both for ablating the material (wavelength 1064 nm) and for measurement (wavelength 532 nm). LÄS MER
18. Short Pulses in Engineered Nonlinear Media
Sammanfattning : Short optical pulses and engineered nonlinear media is a powerful combination. Mode locked pulses exhibit high peak powers and short pulse duration and the engineered ferro-electric KTiOPO4 facilitates several different nonlinear processes. LÄS MER
19. Relativistic light-matter interaction
Sammanfattning : During the past decades, the development of laser technology has produced pulses with increasingly higher peak intensities. These can now be made such that their strength rivals, and even exceeds, the atomic potential at the typical distance of an electron from the nucleus. LÄS MER
20. Cardiovascular function in normal pregnancy and fetal growth
Sammanfattning : Background: Pregnancy is a challenge to a woman’s cardiovascular system, and extensive haemodynamic changes are required for optimal utero-placental circulation and fetal growth. The aim of this thesis was firstly to examine different aspects of vascular function in the same women longitudinally during normal pregnancy, and secondly to explore whether there is an association between maternal cardiovascular function, placental function, and fetal growth.
