  1. 1. Correlating Photoconductivity with Photochromism in Oxygen-containing Rare-earth Metal Hydride Thin Films

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialfysik

    Author : Suraya Kazi; [2021]
    Keywords : Rare-earth metal hydride; Thin film synthesis; Thin film characterization; Optical properties; Electrical properties; Chemical composition; Photochromic materials; Photoconductivity;

    Abstract : Scientists have recently discovered simultaneous photoconductivity and photochromism (i.e., optical switching upon light exposure) of oxygen-containing rare-earth metal hydrides (REMHO). A deep understanding of these extraordinary optical and electrical properties can open the door to advanced technological uses such as smart windows. READ MORE

  3. 2. Electric Transport of Rare-earth Metal Oxy-hydride Thin Films

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialfysik; Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Suraya Kazi; [2021]
    Keywords : Photochromism; Photoconductivity; Rare-earth Metal Oxy-hydride; Electric Transport; Photodarkening; Yttrium Oxy-hydride;

    Abstract : In this project, I investigate the photoconductivenature of photochromic rare-earth metal oxy hydrides (REMHO). Such materials have received increasingscientific attention since they show a color-neutralphotochromic effect that can be applied, e.g., in smartwindows or chromogenic devices. READ MORE

  4. 3. Enhancing colour development of photochromic prints on textile : Physical stabilisation during UV-radiation exposure

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Gabrielle Skelte; [2017]
    Keywords : Photochromism; photochromic; textile; inkjet; UV-radiation; curing; physical stabilisation; wax; whey powder; amylose; photo-oxidation; oxygen inhibition;

    Abstract : Textile UV-radiation sensors has lately been introduced to the field of smart textiles. Inkjet printing has been used as means of application due to the effective and resource efficient process. READ MORE

  5. 4. Photochromic molecules in polymer switch diodes

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Feng-I Tai; [2006]
    Keywords : photochromic; polymer diode; switchable traps;

    Abstract : Photochromism has been investigated extensively during recent years. The large interest for information storage in memory applications is associated with the bi-stable character of the photochromism phenomena. READ MORE
