1. Multicomponent Clusters/Nanoparticles : An Investigation of Electronic and Geometric Properties by Photoelectron Spectroscopy
Sammanfattning : Clusters/nanoparticles are aggregates of a “small” number of building blocks, atoms or molecules, ranging from two up to millions of atoms. Two main groups of clusters have been studied using photoelectron spectroscopy based on synchrotron radiation. LÄS MER
2. Nanoplasmonic Alloy Hydrogen Sensors
Sammanfattning : The hydrogen economy proposes hydrogen gas as the main energy carrier thanks to its high energy density and the possibility to produce it in a sustainable way without CO2 emission. However, the wide flammability range of hydrogen-air mixtures dictates that hydrogen sensors will be a mandatory accessory to any appliance or vehicle fueled by hydrogen. LÄS MER
3. Methods to Generate Size- and Composition Controlled Aerosol Nanoparticles
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes experiments performed using different methods to produce aerosol nanoparticles with control over size and composition. The process included differential mobility analyzers (DMAs) as size-selecting instruments and tube furnaces for particle synthesis. LÄS MER
4. Development of Nanoparticle Sensitized Solar Cells
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, I have been working with the development of nanoparticle sensitized solar cells. In the subarea of quantum dot sensitized solar cells (QDSCs), I have investigated type-II quantum dots (QDs), quantum rods (QRs) and alloy QDs, and developed novel redox couples as electrolytes.

5. Alloy Plasmonics - Fundamentals and Application in Catalysis
Sammanfattning : Alloys have for a long time been important in the development of our society; from the bronze age, where man learned how to alloy copper with tin, to today, where many products are made of steel and aluminum alloys. Similarly, but maybe not as generally well known, also in heterogeneous catalysis alloys are explored to develop solutions to increase activity and selectivity of chemical processes. LÄS MER
