  1. 1. A Quantum Chemical Investigation of Chemical Vapour Deposition of Fe using Ferrocene and Plasma Electrons

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kemi

    Author : Felicia Andersson; [2023]
    Keywords : Quantum chemistry; Ferrocene; Silver; Ag 111 ; Plasma electrons; Surface chemistry; Electronic structure; DFT; Kvantkemi; Ferrocen; Silver; Ag 111 ; Plasmaelektroner; Ytkemi; Elektronstruktur; DFT;

    Abstract : Thin films provide a remarkable asset, as depositing a thin surface layer can completely alter a material’s characteristics and provide new, inexpensive, and valuable properties. In 2020, a new Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) approach was developed at Linköping University, using plasma electrons as reducing agents for the deposition of metallic thin films. READ MORE

  3. 2. Error propagation in nuclear models

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Artis Mucenieks; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis we perform error analysis of a nuclear model based on density-functional theory developed in Lund. The Lund model allows us to perform calculations of nuclear spectra more efficiently by constructing a simple effective Hamiltonian reproducing the quadrupole deformation and pairing interaction strength parameters of a spherical Hartree-Fock reference functional.

  4. 3. Beyond the Gross-Pitaevskii Equation: A Perturbative Approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teknisk fysik (CI)

    Author : Anton Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : Gross-Pitaevskii; Beyond mean-field; Many-body Perturbation Theory; Bose-Einstein Condensate; BEC; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : We propose and implement a beyond Gross-Pitaevskii approach based on Many-Body Perturbation theory (MBPT) for the study of Bose-Einstein Condensate (BECs) ground states. Two partitions of the system Hamiltonian are considered. READ MORE

  5. 4. Feasibility Study of Resistivity Measurement of Metal Surfaces to Address Potential Dislocations Caused by Surface Conditioning

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/FREIA

    Author : Mircea-George Coman; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : High electrical fields are needed inside the accelerating cavities of particle accelerators in order to accelerate the particles to higher energies in shorter distances. But high electrical fields will lead to electrical breakdowns. READ MORE

  6. 5. Thermoelectric measurements on InAs nanowires with a ratchet-barrier

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik

    Author : Hanna Lundström; [2022]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Efficient extraction of thermal energy from electrons at the micro- and nanoscale is a long-standing scientific goal that could enable novel types of heat engines, heat management, and solar cell applications. Semiconductor nanowires are a promising system for investigating such devices for several reasons, such as their thermoelectric properties, and the potential to be grown in heterostructures with high flexibility.
