11. Atom Probe Tomography Investigations of Biologically Relevant Nanoparticles
Sammanfattning : The study of materials at the nanoscale is essential in many scientific disciplines. For example, in materials science the size of the building blocks of a material is directly linked to its properties. LÄS MER
12. Cerium as a quantum state probe for rare-earth qubits in a crystal
Sammanfattning : Rare-earth ions doped into a transparent crystal can have optically excited states with coherence times of milliseconds and hyperfine levels with coherence times of hours when cooled down to liquid helium temperatures. This makes them attractive for developing quantum computing hardware. LÄS MER
13. Semiconductor Nanowires: Characterization and surface modification
Sammanfattning : The topic of III-V nanowires is still, after more than two decades, a growing and lively research area. The areas of application are wide and contain such important topics as energy harvesting, cheap and efficient lighting, high efficiency detectors and new types of electronics. III-V materials offer properties superior to the widely used Si. LÄS MER
14. Atom-Probe Field-Ion Microscopy of Electronic Materials
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents work in which atom-probe field-ion microscopy (APFIM) has been applied to two types of electronic materials. In the case of metal/GaAs contacts, the purpose was to characterise the microstructure of the contact interface, particularly the chemical composition variation across the interface. LÄS MER
15. Nanocellulose and Its Biohybrids for Water Purification : Atomic Force Microscopy as a Tool to Probe Surface Properties and Interactions
Sammanfattning : Nanocellulose has been explored extensively in recent years as an adsorbent due to its promising performance in the removal of charged contaminants from water. In this thesis, various atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques are used to understand the surface characteristics and specific interactions of nanocellulose with water contaminants (heavy metal ions and dyes) and nanoscale entities (Graphene Oxide (GO) and Graphene Oxide nanocolloids (nanoGO)), and explain the mechanisms related to adsorption, metal ion clustering, self-assembly and mechanical reinforcement.
