  1. 1. Thin metal films on weakly-interacting substrates : Nanoscale growth dynamics, stress generation, and morphology manipulation

    Författare :Andreas Jamnig; Kostas Sarakinos; Gregory Abadias; Gregory Thompson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thin films; magnetron sputter-deposition; in situ and real-time characterization; early film growth stages; residual stress; manipulation of morphology; Couches minces; pulvérisation magnétron; caractérisation in situ en temps réel; premiers stades de croissance; contraintes résiduelles; manipulation de morphologie;

    Sammanfattning : Vapor-based growth of thin metal films with controlled morphology on weakly-interacting substrates (WIS), including oxides and van der Waals materials, is essential for the fabrication of multifunctional metal contacts in a wide array of optoelectronic devices. Achieving this entails a great challenge, since weak film/substrate interactions yield a pronounced and uncontrolled 3D morphology. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Epitaxial growth, structure, and thermoelectric properties of CaMn- and V-based oxides

    Författare :Erik Ekström; Per Eklund; Biplab Paul; Fredrik Eriksson; Nini Pryds; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thin film; PVD; Oxides; Epitaxy; XRD;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is focused on physical vapor deposition, epitaxy, and structural characterization of CaMnO3 and VO2. Environmentally friendly and abundant materials are important for energy savings in applications, e.g., thermoelectrics for waste-heat recycling and thermochromic materials for passive indoor-temperature regulation.

  4. 3. Hot-wall MOCVD for advanced GaN HEMT structures and improved p-type doping

    Författare :Alexis Papamichail; Vanya Darakchieva; Anelia Kakanakova-Gueorguieva; Jr-Tai Chen; Zlatko Sitar; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hot-wall MOCVD; III-nitrides; p-type GaN; HEMTs; Linearity; High-Al barrier;

    Sammanfattning : The transition to energy efficient smart grid and wireless communication with improved capacity require the development and optimization of next generation semiconductor technologies and electronic device components. Indium nitride (InN), gallium nitride (GaN) and aluminum nitride (AlN) compounds and their alloys are direct bandgap semiconductors with bandgap energies ranging from 0. LÄS MER

  5. 4. "Jag kunde åtminstone berätta hur jag dödade henne..." : Om transformerande, rehumaniserande och försonande möjligheter för en skyldig människa, med utgångspunkt i Martin Bubers diskussioner kring existentiell skuld

    Författare :Ulrica Fritzson; Tros- och livsåskådningsvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; skuld försoning förövare; rehumanisering Martin Buber; religionsfilosofi Paul Ricoeur Emmanuel Lévinas; Pollsmoorfängelset Sydafrika; Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela; asymmetri; narrativitet; fenomenologi;

    Sammanfattning : The present study is a philosophical reflection on Martin Buber´s concept, Existential Guilt. To be able to atone existential guilt you must, according to Buber, acknowledge, identify and confess your guilt, if possible, in front of the one you have harmed. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Justice and the Prejudices of Culture : On Choice, Social Background and Unequal Opportunities in the Liberal Society

    Författare :Marcus Ohlström; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Liberalism; culture; justice; equality of opportunity; esteem; self-esteem; John Rawls; Statsvetenskap; Political Science;

    Sammanfattning : Egalitarian liberal theories of justice – so this dissertation argues – fail to take into accountthe full implications of the way citizens’ socio-cultural backgrounds work to undermine theequal opportunities these same theories demand. While egalitarians support extensiveredistribution of income and wealth from the privileged to the less privileged, and advocateequal opportunities for all, they do not properly attend either to how our shared societalcultures structure social esteem and related advantages, or to how our individual socioculturalenvironments structure the very act of choice.
