    Keywords : Nanocellulose; optical properties; spectroscopy; ellipsometry; BRDF measurements; optical microscopy; reflectance; transmittance; absorptance; transflectance; spectral design; camouflage; passive radiative cooling;

    Abstract : In the past few years, studies regarding new bio-based materials have led to an increased attention in the nanoscale product of cellulose, called nanocellulose. This biodegradable and renewable material has interesting physical, optical and thermal properties. READ MORE

  3. 2. Design and Fabrication of a Kinetic Inductance Parameric Amplifier for multi-mode entanglement studies

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Sara Persia; [2022]
    Keywords : Parametric amplifier; kinetic inductance; superconducting NbTiN nanowires; Parametrisk förstärkare; kinetisk induktans; supraledanden NbTiN- nanotrådar;

    Abstract : Parametric amplifiers are essential for analyzing and measuring the weak signals generated byquantum circuits at cryogenic temperatures. This project aims to realize a low noise travelingwave parametric amplifier (TWPA) by exploiting the nonlinear current dependence of thekinetic inductance of superconducting NbTiN nanowires.

  4. 3. Investigating the use of Semiconductor Nanowires for Neural Networks

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

    Author : Alfredo Serafini; [2022]
    Keywords : FDTD method and simulation; optical broadcasting neural network; optical communication of nanowires; sub-wavelength absorption.; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this work, we intend to employ nanowires for the realisation of an artificial neuron which can be used to design a neural network that will guide the new generation of non-von Neumann architectures such as Neuromorphic Computing. Possible applications are strongly related to Neuromorphic architectures and artificial intelligence, such as high-performance computers, robotics hardware and autonomous drones. READ MORE

  5. 4. Artificial photosynthesis - 4-Aminobenzoic acids effect on charge transfer in a photo catalytic system

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialteori

    Author : Simon Moberg; [2019]
    Keywords : artificial photosynthesis; aminobenzoic acid; charge transfer; plasmon; induced; plasmon induced; nanostructure; nanostructures; solar energy; nano particles; nano particle; artificiell fotosyntes; aminobensoesyra; laddningsöverföring; plasmon; inducerad; plasmoninducerad; nanostruktur; nanostrukturer; solenergi; nanopartiklar; nanopartikel;

    Abstract : Artificial photosynthesis is used to harvest solar energy and store it in the form of chemical bonds. The system of interest in this study does this by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen gas through a plasmon assisted process, collective oscillations from free electron gas. READ MORE

  6. 5. Raman spectroscopy for characterization of soot and other carbonaceous materials

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

    Author : Jonatan Henriksson; [2019]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Raman spectroscopy is well known as a method that can be used to study the structural characteristics of carbon materials such as soot and carbon black. In this work, a Raman spectroscopy setup was used to record spectra of various carbonaceous samples under different experimental conditions. READ MORE
