  1. 1. An anthem for Europe: Comparing historical appropriations of Beethoven's Ode to Joy

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Europastudier

    Author : Dominic Tscherny; [2023]
    Keywords : Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony; political appropriation of music; Žižek’s empty container; historical narrative; political symbolism; European Studies; Languages and Literatures;

    Abstract : Since its composition two centuries ago in 1824, Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony (Ode to Joy) has been heralded the world over not only as a great work of art, but also as a symbol of political importance. In Germany, it was lionised as the embodiment of a national spirit, first during the Franco-Prussian war, then as a prize of the Nazi repertoire; in Rhodesia, it became the national anthem of a far-right white ethno-state, while on the far-left, it occupied a rare position of Western revolutionary music in China.

  3. 2. Synthesis of Organo-Iron(II) Complexes Including N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligation as Solar Cell Material.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Salim Charkas; [2023]
    Keywords : Dye-sensitized solar cell; Transition metal complex; Synthesis iron; N-heterocyclic carbene NHC ; Organic chemistry; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The push-pull design has been shown to increase DSC performance through the introduction of electron-withdrawing groups and electron-donating groups, usually on opposite far ends of the sensitizer. The scope of this thesis was to synthesize several pre-N-heterocyclic carbene ligand analogs that are inspired by the push-pull design in an attempt to investigate their susceptibility to Fe(II) complexation.

  4. 3. Persistent Homology : A Modern Application of Algebraic Topology in Data Analysis

    University essay from

    Author : Staffan Leijnse; [2023]
    Keywords : Data; Algebraic Topology; Persistent; Homology; Graded; Representation;

    Abstract : Topological data analysis emerged as a field in the 2000s and has proven very useful for examining the shape of data sets. Using persistent homology as their main methodology researchers has succesfully applied the theory presented in this paper to study as varied subjects as robot motion, brain connectivity, network theory, finger print analysis and computer vision.

  6. 5. Flashlamp Annealing for Improved Ferroelectric Junctions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Theodor Blom; [2023]
    Keywords : Flashlamp annealing; ferroelectricity; hafnia oxide; III-V semiconductor; thermal annealing; device performance; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The effects of flashlamp annealing (FLA) on the quality of ferroelectric HfxZr1–xO2 (HZO) interfaces, integrated on InAs substrates, are evaluated. For the integration of ferroelectric HZO on III-V semiconductors the crystallization via rapid thermal processing (RTP) can severely degrade the HZO/III-V interface. READ MORE
