  1. 1. Oxygen Vacancy Chemistry in Ceria

    Författare :Jolla Kullgren; Kersti Hermansson; Shluger Alex; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ceria; Density Functional Theory; Oxygen storage; Nano crystals; Sulfur poisoning; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Cerium(IV) oxide (CeO2), ceria, is an active metal oxide used in solid oxide fuel cells and for the purification of exhaust gases in vehicle emissions control. Behind these technically important applications of ceria lies one overriding feature, namely ceria's exceptional reduction-oxidation properties. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Everything is imperfect: Studies on point defects in insulators

    Författare :Christopher Linderälv; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; boron nitride; band alignment; oxygen vacancies; insulator; optical lineshape; point defects; density functional theory; wide band gap oxides;

    Sammanfattning : Point defects can be detrimental or absolutely necessary for the performance of a material. Due to the implications defects have on a material, defects have been widely studied over the last century. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Optical properties of point defects in insulators and of transition metal dichalcogenides
