  1. 1. Measuring copper abundances in the Galactic Bulge

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

    Author : Nikolei Höglinger; [2024]
    Keywords : Copper; Galaxy: abundances; Galaxy: bulge; Chemical Evolution; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Context: The chemical evolution of Cu in the Galactic bulge have been studied in a few studies using red giant branch stars, but the ages of individual red giant stars are difficult to determine. In addition, the bulge has been a challenging region of the Milky Way galaxy to obtain high-resolution spectra of stars, except when observing through certain few small fields into the bulge that are known to have low extinction.

  2. 2. Morphological study of PS/PMMA-matrix on glass, related to vapour pressure, mass-fraction, and size

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörs- och kemivetenskaper (from 2013)

    Author : Gustav Larsson; [2023]
    Keywords : organic solar cells; polymer; morphology; film; AFM;

    Abstract : The objective of this study is to observe how changing amount or ratio between dried mixes of poly-methyl-methacrylate and poly-styrene change the surface appearance, and how the results might inform future design of Organic photovoltaic cells, whom are based on polymer mixtures and heavenly dependent on the arrangement of polymers. An atomic force microscope was used on glass surfaces coated in a poly-methyl-methacrylate/poly-styrene matrix and dried from either dichloromethane or ethyl-acetate to determine surface appearance.

  3. 3. Recycling end-of-life silicon PV panel with molten salt bath

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Liying Yu; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Solar energy is recognized as a clean way to produce electricity. Solar PV's installed capacity is increasing in recent years. However, a PV panel has a 25-year lifespan on average. In actuality, 95% of the mass of PV components can be recycled. READ MORE

  4. 4. Impact of nanoparticle plasmons on photoluminescense and upconversion processes in ZnO

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Solcellsteknik; Uppsala universitet/Fysikalisk kemi

    Author : Axel Gudmundsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Photoluminescence; Upconversion; Plasmons; ZnO;

    Abstract : The increasing prevalence of glass windows in modern buildings has raised the demand for solar control windows that possess climate-appropriate properties. Glass windows made of abundant and low-cost materials which can both decrease the heating energy consumption as well as enhance the light climate indoors would sufficiently meet the goals of economical yet uplifting buildings.

  5. 5. Towards low carbon buildings: A case study in Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Huynh Tuan Tran; Victor-Antoine Delorme; [2023]
    Keywords : Life cycle assessment; Environmental impact of building materials; Carbon neutrality; Biobased material; Biochar; Cross Laminated Timber; Biogenic carbon; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study comprehensively evaluated the global warming potential of an office building in a newly built Scandinavian neighbourhood seeking to reach sustainability. The primary objective of the research was to support the city authorities of Helsingborg by providing valuable insights into actual carbon emissions at the building level and proposing measures to minimize these emissions to achieve climate neutrality by 2030.
