1. 1. Quantum photoelectrochemistry : Theoretical studies of organic adsorbates on metal oxides surfaces

   Författare :Petter Persson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum chemistry; Quantum chemistry; photoelectrochemistry; metal oxide surfaces; organic adsorbates; Kvantkemi; Quantum chemistry; Kvantkemi; Quantum Chemistry; kvantkemi;

   Sammanfattning : Interactions between organic molecules and transition metal oxide surfaces have been investigated by means of quantum chemical calculations. The studies have been aimed at understanding electrode-adsorbate interactions in photoelectrochemical devices, such as dye-sensitized solar cells. LÄS MER

3. 2. Quantum optics in constrained geometries

   Författare :Björn Hessmo; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum chemistry; quantum optics; atom optics; complementarity; magnetic traps; laser cooling; quantum information; quantal phases; Kvantkemi; Quantum chemistry; Kvantkemi; Quantum Chemistry; kvantkemi;

   Sammanfattning : When light exhibits particle properties, and when matter exhibits wave properties quantum mechanics is needed to describe physical phenomena. A two-photon source produces nonmaximally entangled photon pairs when the source is small enough to diffract light. It is shown that diffraction degrades the entanglement. LÄS MER

4. 3. Novel electrode and photoelectrode materials for hydrogen production based on molecular catalysts

   Författare :Andrew J. Bagnall; Leif Hammarström; Vincent Artero; Sascha Ott; Alexander Cowan; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; electrochemical mechanism; hydrogen; artificial photosynthesis; molecular catalyst; hydrogen evolution; cobalt; Kemi; Chemistry;

   Sammanfattning : The PhD project focussed on the application of a cobalt tetraazamacrocyclic complex, in the literature commonly referred to as [Co(CR)Cl2]+ as a molecular catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). This was within the broader scope of the EU MSCA H2020 ITN ‘eSCALED’ project, which primarily aimed to create artificial leaf devices for the storage of solar energy in chemical fuels and, as part of this, sought the development of novel bio-inspired and scalable materials.

5. 4. Highly Efficient CIGS Based Devices for Solar Hydrogen Production and Size Dependent Properties of ZnO Quantum Dots

   Författare :T. Jesper Jacobsson; Tomas Edvinsson; Laurence Peter; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ZnO; Nanoparticles; Quanum Dots; Size Dependent Properties; Hematite; CIGS; Solar Water Splitting; Hydrogen Production; PEC; Photoelectrochemical cells; PV-electrolysis; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi;

   Sammanfattning : Materials and device concepts for renewable solar hydrogen production, and size dependent properties of ZnO quantum dots are the two main themes of this thesis.ZnO particles with diameters less than 10 nm, which are small enough for electronic quantum confinement, were synthesized by hydrolysis in alkaline zinc acetate solutions.

7. 5. Unravelling Sensitisation and Quenching Pathways in Lanthanide Luminophores

   Författare :Salauat Kiraev; Eszter Borbas; Thomas Just Sørensen; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lanthanide; Luminescence; Sensitisation; Quenching; Energy Transfer; Electron transfer; Kemi; Chemistry;

   Sammanfattning : Lanthanide (Ln) ions find use in cellular detection and probing of many analytes, owing to their unique photophysical properties. However, to make the Ln emission efficient, one has to develop a light-harvesting antenna, which is an organic chromophore that absorbs and transfers energy to the Ln. LÄS MER
