• Bifacial Solar Cells in Nordic Climate 

      Hansen, Siw Anita (Master thesis, 2018)
      Bifacial solar cells can be the new trend within photovoltaic (PV) technology. They have the ability to take advantage of not only the direct irradiance from the sunlight, but also the indirect light which is reflected by ...
    • Black Silicon Structures 

      Juul, Maren Elise (Master thesis, 2018)
      Nanostructuring on the surface of silicon can make high efficient solar cells possible by lowering the reflection. Silicon wafers were successfully wet chemically etched with metal-assistance, to create a black silicon ...
    • Comparing the Performance of Different Silicon Powders for Use in Lithium-Ion Batteries 

      Pollen, Harald Norrud (Master thesis, 2018)
      The topic of this thesis is silicon anodes for lithium-ion batteries. The aim of this thesis is to compare three different types of silicon powders for use in lithium-ion batteries - a micron-sized powder (Silgrain e-Si ...
    • Influence of Artificial Porosity on Piezoelectric Behavior of (K,Na)NbO3 (KNN) Bulk Ceramics 

      Ommedal, Mari Berge (Master thesis, 2016)
      The influence of artificial porosity on the piezoelectric behaviour of KNN was studied for possible biomedical applications. A "piezoelectric effect" observed in bone is expected to trigger bone growth and healing. Therefore, ...
    • Konvertering av silica nanostrukturer med metallothermisk reduksjon. 

      Sørensen, Sigurd (Master thesis, 2016)
      Produksjon av fornybar energi ved bruk av silisiumbaserte solceller er en viktig del av vår innsats for å redusere utslippet av klimagasser og få bukt med en av vår tids største utfordringer; global oppvarming. For å gjøre ...
    • Slip Casting of Solid State SiC 

      Ellefsen, Oda Marie (Master thesis, 2018)
      A study of the parameters influencing the rheology of silicon carbide slurries containing boron carbide and carbon sintering additives was done. Carbon black and Novolac were used as carbon additives and their effect on ...
    • The Effect of Rapid Solidification on Ti-Zr Alloys for Application in Ni-MH Battery Anodes 

      Mølmen, Live (Master thesis, 2018)
      Metal hydrides find applications in the storage of hydrogen and also as anode materials for the nickel-metal hydride batteries(Ni-MH). The properties of these materials can be tuned by selecting appropriate elemental ...
