11. Life of a Photon in X-ray Spectroscopy
Sammanfattning : This thesis summarizes the experimental work in which an ultrafastX-ray laser plasma source was combined with variousscalable direct detection schemes to test a novel approach forlab-based time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy. A laserplasma source based on a water jet target was built and commissioned. LÄS MER
12. Structure and spectroscopy of bio- and nano-materials from first-principles simulations
Sammanfattning : This thesis is devoted to first-principles simulations of bio- and nano-materials,focusing on various soft x-ray spectra, ground-state energies and structures of isolated largemolecules, bulk materials, and small molecules in ambient solutions. K-edge near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectra, x-ray emission spectra, andresonant inelastic x-ray scattering spectra of DNA duplexes have been studied by means oftheoretical calculations at the density functional theory level.

13. Structure of Self-Assembled Monolayers on Gold Studied by NEXAFS and Photoelectron Spectroscopy
Sammanfattning : Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) provide well-defined and ordered films of molecules spontaneously chemisorbed on a surface. By designing molecules with desired functionalities, such molecular film can be interesting for a range of applications from molecular electronics to catalysis. LÄS MER
14. Structure, Dynamics and Thermodynamics of Liquid Water : Insights from Molecular Simulations
Sammanfattning : Water is a complex liquid with many unusual properties. Our understanding of its physical, chemical and biological properties is greatly advanced after a century of dedicated research but there are still many unresolved questions. LÄS MER
15. Microstructural properties of some oxide thin films studied by X-ray diffraction and extended X-ray absorption fine structure
Sammanfattning : The microstructure of some high-temperature superconductorrelated oxide thin films was studied by X-ray Diffraction (XRD)and Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS)techniques. A general one-dimensional kinematic x-raydiffraction model was further developed to quantitativelyanalyze the structural properties of complex layered films. LÄS MER
