6. Reactions of aqueous radiolysis products with oxide surfaces : An experimental and DFT study
Sammanfattning : The reactions between aqueous radiolysis products and oxide surfaces are important in nuclear technology in many ways. In solid-liquid systems, they affect (and at the same time are dependent on) both the solution chemistry and the stability of materials under the influence of ionizing radiation. LÄS MER
7. Experimental studies of radiation-induced dissolution of UO2 : The effect of intrinsic solid phase properties and external factors
Sammanfattning : Dissolution of the UO2 matrix is one of the potential routes for radionuclide release in a future deep geological repository for spent nuclear fuel. This doctoral thesis focuses on interfacial reactions of relevance in radiation-induced dissolution of UO2 and is divided in two parts:In the first part, we sought to explore the effects of solid phase composition:The impact of surface stoichiometry on the reactivity of UO2 towards aqueous radiolytic oxidants was studied.

8. Nanoparticle Plasmons in Classic and Novel Materials - Fundamentals and Hydrogen Sensing
Sammanfattning : The interaction of light with sub-wavelength noble metal nanoparticles and nanostructures has developed into one of the most vibrant themes of nanoscience during the past decade. The optical properties of metal nanoparticles are dominated by so-called nanoparticle plasmons or localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR). LÄS MER
9. Hydrogen in oxides: a density-functional study of thermodynamic and kinetic aspects
Sammanfattning : Many solid oxides, especially those possessing a perovskite structure, exhibit significant proton conductivity when being acceptor doped and placed in hydrogen-containing atmospheres. Consequently, they have attracted attention foruse as solid membranes in electrochemical devices such as gas sensors, steam electrolyzers and fuel cells. LÄS MER
10. Innovations in nanomaterials for proton exchange membrane fuel cells
Sammanfattning : Hydrogen technologies are rapidly receiving increased attention as it offers a renewable energy alternative to the current petroleum-based fuel infrastructure, considering that continued large-scale use of such fossil fuels will lead to disastrous impacts on our environment. The proton exchange membrane fuel cell should play a significant role in a hydrogen economy since it enables convenient and direct conversion of hydrogen into electricity, thus allowing the use of hydrogen in applications particularly suited for the transportation industry.
