1. Localized and extended states in finite-sized mosaic Wannier-Stark lattices
University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysikAbstract : Anderson localization occurs when an otherwise conductive solid becomes insulatingdue to a sufficiently large degree of disorder in the medium. The electron band energy(as a function of disorder) at which this transition between extended and localizedelectron states occur is called the mobility edge (ME) and is energy-dependent only in3-dimensional systems.

2. Electron-skyrmion systems, in and out of equilibrium, and isolated or contacted to reservoirs
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : A Kondo lattice skyrmion model in contact with a macroscopic environment is simulated to explore skyrmion dynamics, which is an extension of previous work. The system is simulated using non-equilibrium Green's functions within the generalized Kadanoff-Baym ansatz and the wide band limit. READ MORE

3. Investigation of charge injection at electrode-dielectric interface relevant for HVDC cables : Simulation of charge injection and transport dynamics in electrical insulation for HVDC cables
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad mekanikAbstract : A bipolar charge transport (BCT) model is used to simulate charge injection and transportdynamics inside insulation material which are used in a high voltage direct current (HVDC)cable. Gaining knowledge about space charge density and electric field distribution in theinsulation material enables minimising charge injection at the metal-insulator interface andavoiding unnecessary energy loss.

4. Quantum Transport in Topological Insulator Nanowires
University essay from KTH/FysikAbstract : Three-dimensional topological insulators are materials that have a bulk band gap like a traditional insulator, but which hold topologically protected conducting surface states. In this thesis we present a numerical analysis of the surface states of topological insulator nanowires in the tight-binding approximation. READ MORE

5. 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
