    Sammanfattning : Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are attracting increasing interest as devices with potentialuses in decentralized and clean electricity and heat production. Several challengeswith respect to materials have to be overcome to achieve efficiencies and life-spansthat are sufficient for long-term applications. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Components of smart windows : Investigations of electrochromic films, transparent counter electrodes and sputtering techniques

    Författare :Lisen Kullman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Solid State Physics; fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Sammanfattning : In smart windows, the transmittance of visible and near infrared radiation can be reversibly and persistently modulatcd by an applied voltage pulse (~2 V). The micrometer-thick multi-layer structure contains two electrodes capable of charge insertion. One of these electrodes must be electrochromic; usually it consists of tungsten oxide. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Studies on preparation and properties of nanophase metal oxides

    Författare :Tarja Turkki; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is about science on an atomic scale - aninterdisciplinary approach to nanoparticles. Studies of thepreparation of nanoparticles using both physical and chemicalmethods are presented. Understanding and controlling factorsfor particle growth during synthesis are the keys to successfulfabrication of materials with tailored properties. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Electronic structure studies and method development for complex materials

    Författare :Andreas Östlin; Levente Vitos; László Udvardi; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electronic structure theory; density functional theory; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Over the years electronic structure theory has proven to be a powerful method with which one can probe the behaviour of materials, making it possible to describe and predict material properties. The numerical tools needed for these methods are always in need of development, since the desire to calculate more complex materials pushes this field forward. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Light-Matter Interaction and Quantum Computing in Rare-Earth-Ion-Doped Crystals

    Författare :Adam Kinos; Atomfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Rare-Earth-Ion-Doped Crystals; Quantum Computing; Light-Matter Interaction; Fysicumarkivet A:2018:Kinos;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, crystals of yttrium orthosilicate (Y2SiO5) that are randomly doped with another rare-earth element, such as praseodymium (Pr), europium (Eu), or cerium (Ce), are investigated with lasers locked to ultra-stable cavities using the Pound-Drever-Hall locking technique. Many of these rare-earth elements have long-lived 4f-4f transitions, hundreds of microseconds to a few milliseconds, with even longer ground hyperfine lifetimes of up to several days. LÄS MER
