1. Modulation of the optical properties of quantum dots by surface acoustic waves
University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysikAbstract : Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are considered to be a crucial part of future quantum technologies due to their enormous potential as efficient sources of single and indistinguishable photons. Single photons are necessary to transport quantum information over large distances through the existing global fibre optic network. READ MORE

2. Modelling and testing of a solar panel structure for KNATTE (Kinesthetic Node and Autonomous Table-Top Emulator)
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknikAbstract : One of the challenges that satellites face is the interaction between control movement and vibration of flexible appendages such as solar arrays and antennas that can negatively affect the performance of the spacecraft. The aim of this thesis is to develop a numerical model of a solar panel structure for KNATTE, a frictionless platform developed by the Onboard Space Systems group at Luleå University of Technology, and develop a control law that reduces the flexible vibration of the solar arrays when attitude control manoeuvres are performed.

3. Techniques to inject pulsating momentum
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Strömningslära och experimentell mekanikAbstract : Hydro power plants are an essential part of the infrastructure in Sweden as they stand for a large amount of the produced electricity and are used to regulate supply and demand on the electricity grid. Other renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power, have become more popular as they contribute to a fossil free society. READ MORE

5. Energy Harvesting for Electronic Systems
University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automationAbstract : Energy harvesting enables products to become more self-sufficient of power and offers the possibility to avoid battery exchange and power cables. The performance and applicability of the most promising or popular small scale energy harvesting technologies are investigated in this thesis. READ MORE
