  1. 1. On the Size and Shape of Polymers and Polymer Complexes : A Computational and Light Scattering Study

    Författare :Tomas Edvinsson; Terence Cosgrove; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Monte Carlo simulations; grafted polymers; shape description; folding complexity; clustering; percolation algorithm; light scattering; end-capped polymers; inclusion complexes; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; Physical Chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Detailed characterization of size and shape of polymers, and development of methods to elucidate the mechanisms behind shape transitions are central issues in this thesis. In particular we characterize grafted polymer chains under confinement in terms of the chain entanglement complexity and mean molecular size. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis work, different classes of catalysts and their suitability for integration into an electrolyzer cell has been investigated.Ruthenium based molecular catalysts have shown high activities and stabilities towards water oxidation in neutral pH. Especially the oligomeric catalysts exhibited a superior performance. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Electrocatalysts for sustainable hydrogen energy : disordered and heterogeneous nanomaterials

    Författare :Joakim Ekspong; Thomas Wågberg; Ludvig Edman; Tomas Edvinsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Water splitting; Electrochemistry; Nanomaterials; Density functional theory; Hydrogen evolution; MoS2; Fuel cell; nanomaterials; nanomaterial; fysik; Physics; Physical Chemistry; fysikalisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : With the current global greenhouse gas emissions, our remaining carbon budget is depleted in only 7 years. After that, several biophysical systems are predicted to collapse such as the arctic ice, coral reefs and the permafrost, leading to potentially irreversible consequences. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Synthesis and Characterisation of Ultra Thin Film Oxides for Energy Applications

    Författare :Mattis Fondell; Mats Boman; Tomas Edvinsson; Andreas Lindblad; Christophe Detavernier; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Atomic Layer Deposition; Iron oxides; Hematite; Solar Water Splitting; Hard X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes studies of materials which can be exploited for hydrogen production from water and sunlight. The materials investigated are maghemite (γ-Fe2O3), magnetite (Fe3O4) and especially hematite (α-Fe2O3), which is an iron oxide with most promising properties in this field. LÄS MER
