1. 1. There Is an Alloy at the End of the Rainbow: Structure and Optical Properties From Bulk to Nano

   Författare :Magnus Rahm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; thermodynamics; optical properties; dielectric functions; hydrides; alloy cluster expansions; alloys; nanoalloys;

   Sammanfattning : Mixing different chemical species and decreasing dimensions to the nanoscale are two powerful approaches for improving materials. In both cases new properties emerge, and structure, composition, and chemical ordering can be tuned to tailor materials for specific purposes. LÄS MER

3. 2. Designing and Tuning the Properties of Materials by Quantum Mechanical Calculations

   Författare :Jailton Souza de Almeida; Rajeev Ahuja; Patrizia Monachesi; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Physics; Density Functional Theory; Electronic Structure; Phase Transitions; High Pressure; Optical Properties; Dielectric Functions; Semiconductors; Metals; Fysik;

   Sammanfattning : In many materials, changes in chemical composition, pressure or temperature can induce metal to insulator transitions. It is recently observed in yttrium hydride, for example, changes from a shiny mirror (YH2) to a transparent window (YH3), which has important technological application in optical devices. LÄS MER

4. 3. Analysis of dielectric response measurement methods and dielectric properties of resin-rich insulation during processing

   Författare :Anders Helgeson; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The dielectric diagnostic methods ofpolarisation/depolarisation currents and recovery voltage,which are time domain methods, and capacitance and tandmeasurements at different frequencies, which is a frequencydomain method, have been studied here. In the first part of thethesis, these measurement methods are analysed and evaluated. LÄS MER

5. 4. Alloy Plasmonics - Fundamentals and Application in Catalysis

   Författare :Christopher Tiburski; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CO oxidation; nanoparticles; gold; heterogeneous catalysis; LSPR; nanoalloys; nanofabrication; light; dielectric function; palladium;

   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

   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, alloys have lately been proposed as a new paradigm in nanophotonics, to tailor optical properties of nanomaterials that find applications within telecommunication, sensing, or biotechnology.
