  1. 1. Impact of nanoparticle plasmons on photoluminescense and upconversion processes in ZnO

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Solcellsteknik; Uppsala universitet/Fysikalisk kemi

    Author : Axel Gudmundsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Photoluminescence; Upconversion; Plasmons; ZnO;

    Abstract : The increasing prevalence of glass windows in modern buildings has raised the demand for solar control windows that possess climate-appropriate properties. Glass windows made of abundant and low-cost materials which can both decrease the heating energy consumption as well as enhance the light climate indoors would sufficiently meet the goals of economical yet uplifting buildings.

  3. 2. Electromagnetic Heating of Coated Ellipsoidal Gold Nanoparticles in Biological Tissue at Radio Frequencies

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

    Author : Olle Hennert; Robert Themptander; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Radiofrequency heating of gold nanoparticles for use in remote hyperthermia cancer treatment has seenrapidly growing interest in the last decade. While most of the focus has been on studying sphericalnanoparticles, a recent report suggests ellipsoidal particles can significantly increase heat absorption. READ MORE

  4. 3. Simulation of Microwave Heating of Healthy and Cancerous Human Tissue With Gold Nanoparticles

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

    Author : Hampus Carlens; Mika Söderström; [2022]

    Abstract : With a great need for new and better cancer treatments, microwaves and gold nanoparticles (GNPs) are increasingly being suggested to be used in radiotherapy. In thisreport, the authors present an investigation of how human tissue,both malignant and healthy, behaves under microwave radiation. READ MORE

  5. 4. Geometry Dependent Optimal Bounds of Absorption and Scattering Cross-section for Small Nanoparticles

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)

    Author : Md Shabbir Hossain Khan; [2022]
    Keywords : Scattering; Absorption; Nanoparticle; Cross-section; Mie; Electromagnetic; FDTD; dipole; Wavenumber.;

    Abstract : Light-matter interaction in particles of subwavelength size mostly depends on the size, shape, composition of the particles and relies on the properties of incident light. Henceforth, resonant behavior of light can be effectively controlled by changing the aforesaid geometrical parameters. READ MORE

  6. 5. Quantum chemical studies of the reactivity of gold nanoparticles towards molecular radicals

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Sofia Larsson; [2022]
    Keywords : gold nanoparticles; surface electrostatic potential; average local ionization energy; electron attachment energy; free molecular radicals; guldnanopartiklar; elektrostatisk ytpotential; genomsnittlig lokal joniseringsenergi; fria molekylära radikaler;

    Abstract : Kvantkemiska studier av reaktiviteten hos guldnanopartiklar Au3-Au11 och Au13 mot O- centrerade molekylradikaler OH , OOH , OCH3   och H2O undersöks. Olika molekylära ytegenskaper tas med i beräkningen, elektrostatiska ytpotentialen, den genomsnittliga lokala joniseringsenergin, electron attachment energy och spinndensiteten (VS(r), IS(r), TS(r), ES(r) och S(r)).
