  1. 1. Inkjet printed piezoelectric energy harvesters based on self-assembly of diphenylalanine peptide

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Yujie Fu; [2023]
    Keywords : Inkjet printing; piezoelectric energy harvester; diphenylalanine peptide; self-assembly; Bläckstråleutskrift; piezoelektrisk energiskördare; difenylalaninpeptid; självmontering;

    Abstract : Diphenylalanine peptide (Phe-Phe or FF) is a very promising bio-material in the future wearable electronics application due to its self-assembly into nanotubes and nanoribbons with high shear piezoelectric coefficient which is comparable to traditional inorganic piezoelectric materials. In order to efficiently harvest piezoelectric response, alignment and unidirectional polarization of FF nanotubes are required. READ MORE

  2. 2. Fabrication and characterization of GaAsxP1-x single junction solar cell on Si for III-V/Si tandem solar cell

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Elaheh Aghajafari; [2023]
    Keywords : III-V semiconductor; GaAsxP1-x heteroeputaxy; hydride vapor phase epitaxy; III-V Si solar cell; III-V halvledare; GaAsxP1-x epitaxiallager; hydridångfasepitaxi; III-V Si solcell;

    Abstract : Silicon based solar cells have been used as photovoltaic devices for decades due to reasonable cost and environment- friendly nature of silicon. But the conversion efficiency of silicon solar cell is limited; for instance, the maximum conversion efficiency of a crystalline silicon solar cell available in the market developed by Kaneka Corporation is 26 % [1].

  3. 3. Chromia-Alumina Thin Films from Alkoxide Precursors : From Precursor Synthesis to Deposition and Characterisation

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Oorganisk kemi

    Author : Elina Elvelo; [2023]
    Keywords : alkoxide; synthesis; thin film; coating; alumina; chromia; spinodal decomposition;

    Abstract : A hetero-bimetallic alkoxide CrAl3(OiPr)12 was synthesised through metathesis of achromium(III)chloride THF complex (CrCl3 . 3 THF) and 3 KAl(OiPr)4.It was used as a single sourceprecursor to make oxide powders and films with 1:3 chromium/aluminium compositionthrough sol-gel synthesis.

  4. 4. Development of thick GaN and AlGaN drift layers for vertical power devices

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Andri Dhora; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : High-quality, thick III-nitride epitaxial drift layers with controlled doping are needed for next-generation highly efficient vertical power devices for a smart grid applications and electrification of mobility. Achieving desirable material properties, such as low background impurity concentrations and reduced dislocation densities in combination with high growth rates, necessary for practical application present a challenge.
