1. Towards a Chemisorption Model for Transition-Metal Nitrides and Carbides from Density-Functional Theory: A TiN and TiC Case Study
Sammanfattning : Since the 1960's, a number of models for chemisorption on metals has beenpresented, most notably the Anderson-Grimley-Newns model for metals and thed-band model of Hammer and Nørskov for transition metals. The intention of this thesis is to explore the adsorption on transition-metal nitrides andcarbides, technologically interesting materials (in, e. LÄS MER
2. Efficient Synthesis and Analysis of Chiral Cyanohydrins
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the development of new methods for efficient synthesis and analysis in asymmetric catalysis. It focuses on the preparation of chiral cyanohydrins by enantioselective addition of cyanide to prochiral aldehydes. LÄS MER
3. Membrane Electrode Assemblies Based on Hydrocarbon Ionomers and New Catalyst Supports for PEM Fuel Cells
Sammanfattning : The proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is a potential electrochemicalpower device for vehicles, auxiliary power units and small-scale power plants. In themembrane electrode assembly (MEA), which is the core of the PEMFC single cell,oxygen in air and hydrogen electrochemically react on separate sides of a membraneand electrical energy is generated.
