6. Reactive Sputtering of Cubic-Phase BN:C and Nanostructured B-N-C Films : Growth, Microstructure, and Mechanical Properties
Sammanfattning : Synthesis, structure, and mechanical property related issues in the carbon-containing boron nitride (BN:C) system have been studied. Magnetron sputtering, comprising a B4C target in mixed Ar-N2 discharges and deposition parameters of low ion energy, high ion-to-neutral flux ratio, and substrate temperatures ... LÄS MER
7. Hydrogenation, Transfer Hydrogenation and Hydrogen Transfer Reactions Catalyzed by Iridium Complexes
Sammanfattning : The work described in this thesis is focused on the development of new bidentate iridium complexes and their applications in the asymmetric reduction of olefins, ketones and imines. Three new types of iridium complexes were synthesized, which included pyridine derived chiral N,P-iridium complexes, achiral NHC complexes and chiral NHC-phosphine complexes. LÄS MER
8. Improving strategic decisions for real estate investors : Perspectives on allocation and management
Sammanfattning : Real estate is an attractive asset class in the mixed-asset portfolio due to favorable risk return characteristics and low correlations with other asset classes like stock and bonds. Unlike financial assets, real estate is a physical asset where large lot sizes/indivisibility, heterogeneity, low liquidity and high transaction costs make applying financial models like modern portfolio theory (MPT) challenging.

9. First-principles calculations of long-range intermolecular dispersion forces
Sammanfattning : This work presents first-principles calculations of long-range intermolecular dispersion energies between two atoms or molecules as expressed in terms of the C6 dipole-dipole dispersion coefficients. In a series of publications, it has been shown by us that the complex linear polarization propagator method provides accurate ab initio and first-principles density functional theory values of the C6 dispersion coefficients in comparison with those reported in the literature.

10. Term structure estimation based on a generalized optimization framework
Sammanfattning : The current work is devoted to estimating the term structure of interest rates based on a generalized optimization framework. To x the ideas of the subject, we introduce representations of the term structure as they are used in nance: yield curve, discount curve and forward rate curve. LÄS MER
