  1. 1. Optical Communication using Nanowires and Molecular Memory Systems

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

    Author : Thomas Kjellberg Jensen; [2024]
    Keywords : neuromorphic computing; nanowire; molecular dye; DASA photoswitch; OBIC; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : 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.

  3. 2. Application of Fourier Transforms to time-resolved ambient pressure spectroscopy operando studies of CO oxidation over Pt(111)

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

    Author : Grigore-Leon Ratiu; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The study of heterogeneous catalysis has important implications in increasing the efficiency of industrial processes and in reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases from sources such as automobiles. A reaction with high industrial relevance is the oxidation of CO on noble metal catalysts. READ MORE

  4. 3. Development of ultra-sensitive immunoassay on Gyrolab microfluidic platform using Binding Oligo Ladder Detection : Enhancing Gyrolab biomarker assays using Exazym®

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaci

    Author : Sam Vadi Dris; [2024]
    Keywords : Immnoassay; Gyrolab; TNF-alpha; Ultra-sensitive; Cavidi; Exazym; BOLD amplification; Amplification;

    Abstract : Immunoassays are widely used for detection of antigens in a wide range of applications including assays in pharmaceutical development. Immunoassays are continuously improved in many aspects including automatization, miniaturization and extending the dynamic range. READ MORE

  5. 4. Exploring the Impact of Pseudo and Quasi Random Number Generators on Monte Carlo Integration of the Multivariate Normal Distribution

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Statistiska institutionen

    Author : Marcus Stolz; Jonathan Christopher; [2024]
    Keywords : Monte Carlo integration; Quasi monte carlo integration; Random number generation; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the effects of pseudo and quasi-random number generators on the accuracy and efficiency of Monte Carlo Integration in the case of the multivariate normal distribution. The study compares the performance of the Mersenne Twister (a pseudo-random number generator) with Sobol and Halton sequences (quasi-random number generators). READ MORE

  6. 5. The Sounds of Pain : An ethnography of musicians living with migraine in Uppsala

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kulturantropologi och etnologi

    Author : Rosanne Heijstek; [2024]
    Keywords : migraine; anthropology; pain; music; affect;

    Abstract : Migraine is an extremely common and disabling disease that affects three times more women than men, and is characterized by recurring migraines comprised of disturbances in sensation perception, intense head pain, nausea, and increased sensitivity to light and sound that can last from several hours to multiple days. Currently, there are no cures for the disease, no official social services that can help a person to handle living with it, and limited studies on its mechanisms or impact on a person’s life.
