  1. 1. Generation and detection of entangled single-photon pairs

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/FREIA

    Author : Gabriella Tesfamichael Habtezion; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Quantum information technology is an emerging field with important applications such as quantum cryptography and teleportation, quantum imaging and lithography. These applications make use of single photons and pairs of entangled photons. In this work, we experimentally generate and attempt to detect the entangled photons. READ MORE

  3. 2. Towards a setup for narrowband terahertz generation through difference-frequency mixing of chirped ultrashort pulses

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Isa Clementsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Terahertz radiation is a useful tool for inducing lower-energy excitations in matter, where it can be used to cause structural changes through direct interaction with the crystal lattice. Sub-picosecond optical pulses can be used to generate intense broadband terahertz pulses through optical rectification in nonlinear crystals, reaching peak electric fields of several MV/m and conversion efficiencies as high as a few percent.

  4. 3. A Novel Two-Level Inverter Design for Efficient Energy Conversion in a Maglev Train Rail

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för informationsteknologi

    Author : Oskar Zetterström; Stefan West Westholm; [2023]
    Keywords : IGBT; Inverter; Gate-driver; Prototype; Pulse width modulation; Sine wave; Maglev train; IGBT; Växelriktare; Grinddrivenhet; Prototyp; Pulsbreddsmodulering; Sinusvåg; Maglevtåg;

    Abstract : This report covers the construction of a prototype inverter system designed to power the rail of a maglev train, from component selection through simulations and power demands to mounting and wiring the components into a cabinet. The inverter is made with insulated gate bipolar transistors controlled with pulse-width modulated signals provided by a custom microcontroller. READ MORE

  5. 4. Energy flows and potential energy development strategies in RoRo ports: A study based on the Port of Trelleborg

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Gabriele Gonzales; [2023]
    Keywords : RoRo Ports; Energy Flows; Energy Development; Energy Strategies; Renewable Energy; Ports; Energy Hub; Energy Storage; Hydrogen; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The recent push for decarbonization in the maritime sector presents an opportunity for ports to strengthen their position as energy hubs. This work studies the existing energy flows in the Port of Trelleborg, one of Europe's biggest roll-on, roll-off ports, and proposes some energy-related development strategies. READ MORE
