  1. 1. Generation and detection of entangled single-photon pairs

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/FREIA

    Author : Gabriella Tesfamichael Habtezion; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Quantum information technology is an emerging field with important applications such as quantum cryptography and teleportation, quantum imaging and lithography. These applications make use of single photons and pairs of entangled photons. In this work, we experimentally generate and attempt to detect the entangled photons. READ MORE

  3. 2. Stability improvement to a ruthenium catalyst for partial oxidation of methane

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Melker Axelsson; [2023]
    Keywords : catalysis; reaction engineering; kinetics; partial oxidation; chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Catalytic partial oxidation of methane (CPOM) is an energy-efficient alternative to steam reforming, the currently prevailing method for energy production from natural gas. Hulteberg Chemistry & Engineering AB has developed a catalyst for the partial oxidation of methane into syngas, for use in solid oxide fuel cells. READ MORE

  4. 3. Hardware Subsystem Proposal of an Off-Vehicle Battery Analyzer from a Charging/Discharging Perspective

    University essay from Högskolan Väst/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Rinor Gashi; Tim Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : battery electric vehicles; power conversion module; off-vehicle battery packs;

    Abstract : Electric Vehicles (EVs) are seen as one of the solutions to some of the world’s global current problems, such as global warming and air pollution, due to non-existent operational emissions and increased efficiency. There are multiple types of EVs, one of them being Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) which in most cases utilizes a Li-Ion battery pack as energy storage. READ MORE

  5. 4. Metals for energy storage : For hydrogen and power generation

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Konstruktionsmaterial

    Author : Oscar Torsteinsrud; Mattias Reijm; [2023]
    Keywords : Metals; Energy Storage; Round Trip Efficiency; Aluminum; Boron; Magnesium; Silicon; Zinc;

    Abstract : With an increase in energy demand and a transition from conventional fossil-driven energy generation, the world is facing a major challenge. This transition implies more intermittent energy sources whose reliance varies widely with time. To deal with this challenge, energy storage is one part of the solution. READ MORE

  6. 5. Towards a setup for narrowband terahertz generation through difference-frequency mixing of chirped ultrashort pulses

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

    Author : Isa Clementsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Terahertz radiation is a useful tool for inducing lower-energy excitations in matter, where it can be used to cause structural changes through direct interaction with the crystal lattice. Sub-picosecond optical pulses can be used to generate intense broadband terahertz pulses through optical rectification in nonlinear crystals, reaching peak electric fields of several MV/m and conversion efficiencies as high as a few percent.
