1. Macromolecular Matchmaking : Mechanisms and Biology of Bacterial Small RNAs
Sammanfattning : Cells sense the properties of the surrounding environment and convert this information into changes in gene expression. Bacteria are, in contrast to many multi-cellular eukaryotes, remarkable in their ability to cope with rapid environmental changes and to endure harsh and extreme milieus. LÄS MER
2. Nonlinear dynamics of strongly-bound magnetic vortex pairs
Sammanfattning : This work is a study of nonlinear phenomena in vertically stacked pairs of magnetic vortices. New dynamic regimes are uncovered with a decrease in the inter-vortex separation to below the lateral vortex-core size. LÄS MER
3. Micro-Flow Reactors for Kinetic Studies of Model Catalysts made by Electron-Beam Lithography
Sammanfattning : The main objective of this work is to explore the potential of using electron beam lithography (EBL) to prepare well defined supported model catalysts, which can be used for catalytic research. The work has involved three major areas (i) EBL-fabrication of catalysts, (ii) design of a micro-flow reactor for catalytic evaluation, and (iii) problem oriented research using EBL-fabricated model catalysts.

4. Characterization of Magnetic Nanoscale Systems: From Molecules to Particles and Self-Assembled Chains
Sammanfattning : This thesis characterizes magnetic nanoscale systems with increasing size and aspect ratio using synchrotron radiation-based spectroscopy and microscopy techniques, combined with conventional magnetometry. The systems studied are molecular magnets, bimagnetic nanoparticles and self-assembled magnetic nanochains. LÄS MER
5. Experimental and theoretical study of quantum dot resonant tunneling diodes for single photon detection
Sammanfattning : Single photon detection has a broad application in the medical, telecommunication, as well as in infrared imaging fields. In this thesis I present my work in studying quantum dot (QD) resonant tunneling diodes (RTD) for single photon detection. The device was processed in the form of a free-standing small-area air bridge. LÄS MER
