1. Optical Communication using Nanowires and Molecular Memory Systems
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/SynkrotronljusfysikAbstract : Neuromorphic computational networks, inspired by biological neural networks, provide a possible way of lowering computational energy cost, while at the same time allowing for much more sophisticated devices capable of real-time inferences and learning. Since simulating artificial neural networks on conventional computers is particularly inefficient, the development of neuromorphic devices is strongly motivated as the reliance on AI-models increases.

2. Multiple-Emitter Super-resolution Imaging using the Alternating Descent Conditional Gradient Method
University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisationAbstract : This thesis examines the state-of-the-art 2D super-resolution technique alternating descent conditional gradient (ADCG) method's ability to accurately localize fluorophores in diffraction-limited single molecule images (SMI) and analyze the impact of pre-processing and post-processing modules on ADCG's fluorophore localization. A synthetic dataset obtained from the 2013 Grand Challenge localization microscopy and a temporally linked dataset obtained from an unpublished set of Optical DNA mapping experiments performed by Jonathan Jeffet at the NanoBioPhotonix Lab at Tel-Aviv University were initially segmented to extract their noise parameters.

3. Investigating the use of Semiconductor Nanowires for Neural Networks
University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : 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

4. Active stabilisation of a micro-sized fibre cavity using tilt locking to enable quantum operations on single ions
University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : In this thesis, the tilt locking scheme is applied to create an error signal that monitors length changes in a fibre-based microcavity. To find a robust and precise locking technique is an essential step towards quantum operations on single rare-earth ions doped in microcrystals. Quantum computing and information is a frontier of modern physics. READ MORE

5. A Fabry–Pérot Cavity for Rare-Earth-Ion-Doped Nanocrystals
University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : This thesis work contributes to the effort of detecting single rare earth ions doped into crystals, an operation crucial for the development of rare earth quantum computer hardware. Doping crystals with rare earth elements, their trivalent ions substitute some of the crystal’s original bonds. READ MORE
