Adsorption of CO on nickel-decorated muscovite mica
(Master thesis, 2018)Adsorption of carbon monoxide on nickel-decorated muscovite mica is studied using the surface analysis techniques X-ray photoelectron spectrocsopy, temperature programmed desorption, and atomic force microscopy. Muscovite ... -
Behaviour of the S1 and S2 Components of the Semidiurnal Tide in the MLT
(Master thesis, 2016)9 years (2000-2008) of wind data from a longitudinal chain of up to 10 Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) radars spanning over 184 degrees in longitude and ranging in latitude from 51.4 - 65.7 degrees N is used ... -
Compact Stars
(Master thesis, 2017)In this thesis we study the mass-radius and pressure-radius relations of white dwarfs and neutron stars. We derive the pressure and energy density in a non-interacting Fermi gas at $T=0$, and construct several different ... -
Degradation of the Chemotherapy Drug 5-Fluorouracil on Surfaces
(Master thesis, 2015)The catalytic effect of different materials concerning degradation of the chemo therapy drug 5-Fluorouracil (5-Fu) has been studied using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy and X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy. The materials ... -
Design of an End-Pumped Laser Source for Generation of High-Energy Nanosecond Pulses at 1.6 µm Wavelength
(Master thesis, 2015)A numerical model for simulating a pulsed laser has been implemented. The modelled laser can generate pulses with a duration of a few nanoseconds and a tunable wavelength. The laser consists of a diode-pumped neodymium-LiYF4 ... -
Developing an analysis technique for identification of wave structures in MATS data
(Master thesis, 2018)This thesis presents a method for analyzing data gathered during the MATS mission. The MATS mission is a Swedish satellite mission which aims to improve our understanding of gravity waves in the mesosphere and their influence ... -
Dynamical Simulation of Causal Sets
(Master thesis, 2016)Two different dynamical schemes for production of physically meaningful causal sets are described and explored through the use of original computer simulations made using C++. Both of the schemes are found inappropriate ... -
Engineering Quantum States in δ-doped Semiconductors
(Master thesis, 2017)The effect of quantum confinement, creating a two-dimensional electron gas was studied using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. This was done by creating phosphorus δ-layers in silicon, varying in thickness from ... -
Exploring Electronic Confinement in Si:P δ-layers
(Master thesis, 2018)In this thesis, the electronic states of a quantum well system in silicon is investigated. The confinement is induced by a thin dopant profile called a delta-layer, creating an effective two-dimensional metallic region ... -
Initial Studies of Strontium Titanate Substrates and Room Temperature Deposited Titanium Dioxide Thin Films
(Master thesis, 2017)To create doped titanium dioxide TiO2 thin films for use in intermediate band solar cells, it is important to be able to deposit thin films of high quality. To achieve this, substrates with surfaces of high quality is ... -
Investigation of some compounds and gold nanoparticles for photodynamic therapy
(Master thesis, 2018)In this thesis several chemical compounds for possible use as photosensitizers (PS) in photodynamic therapy (PDT) have been investigated. First a photophysical characterization was performed using different spectroscopic ... -
Modelling of Aerodynamic Drag in Alpine Skiing
(Master thesis, 2017)Most of the breaking force in the speed disciplines in alpine skiing is caused by the aerodynamic drag, and a better knowledge of the drag force is therefore desirable to gain time in races. In this study a complete database ... -
Radiation dose and image quality in CT - Evaluation of how slice thickness, tube current modulation and reconstruction algorithms affect radiation dose and image noise
(Master thesis, 2018)Background: Helse Vest has currently standardized the computed tomography (CT) Thorax/Abdomen/Pelvis protocols in the region. One of the standardized parameters was a reduction of the reconstructed slice thickness from 5 ... -
Spectroscopic characterization and performance of novel triplet state enhanced molecules for optical power limiting
(Master thesis, 2018)Finding molecules with good optical power limiting (OPL) performance is of greatimportance for the use in OPL filters made for protecting against harmful lasers used inan expanding set of technologies. In this ... -
TEM characterization of GaAs/GaAsSb heterostructured nanowires for laser applications
(Master thesis, 2017)The structure of self-catalyzed GaAs NWs (length ~10 µm and thickness ~400 nm) with six GaAsSb/GaAs superlattices (SL), have been analyzed. Four samples with varying Sb flux and GaAsSb well growth time, which all depicted ... -
