  1. 1. Exploring the effects of pressure on the magnetic properties of quasi-low dimensional quantum magnets via thermodynamic measurements

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

    Author : Emelie Zhu; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Four model solid state compounds were used to experimentally investigate the effects of pressure on the interactions in one- and two-dimensional Heisenberg magnetic models. BaCuSi2O6, BaCu2V2O8, SrCuO2 and CuGeO3 were successfully synthesized via solid-state reactions and characterized via x-ray diffraction. READ MORE

  2. 2. Tuning Photovoltaic Properties of Two-dimensional Molybdenum Disulfide by Alloying: An ab initio study

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Mochen Li; [2023]
    Keywords : Photovoltaic; Molybdenum disulfide; Absorption coefficient; ab initio material design; Fotovoltaisk; Molybdendisulfid; Absorptionskoefficient; ab initio materialdesign;

    Abstract : Addressing the urgent need for innovative energy solutions amidst increasing environmental concerns, the focus on photovoltaic solar cells is intensifying. Currently limited by the Shockley-Queisser limit, conventional silicon-based solar cells offer a maximum power conversion efficiency of 32%. READ MORE

  3. 3. Comparing Quantum and Semi-Classical Approaches to Non-Collinear Magnetism in an Electron-Spin Dimer

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

    Author : Sherwan Jamo Abdi; [2023]
    Keywords : Skyrmion Electron Spin Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction DMI Ehrenfest Semiclassical; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this bachelor thesis, an explorative theoretical analysis is presented on a model system characterized by various and competing magnetic interactions. The system comprises two localized magnetic moments (spins), and a single itinerant electron that hops between two orbitals located at the spins’ positions. READ MORE

  4. 4. Modelling of nanometric cutting in metals using MD simulations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Mekanik

    Author : Damien Gautier; [2022]
    Keywords : Nanometric cutting; Molecular Dynamics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master thesis project has been done within the Mechanics department of Lunds Tekniska Högskola (LTH). It studies the nanometric cutting process of a single crystal copper workpiece by a cubic diamond tool using Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations on the software LAMMPS. READ MORE

  5. 5. Material Characterization and Blade Impact Simulation

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Gustaf Bodare; [2022]
    Keywords : Strain rate dependency; Split-Hopkinson pressure bar; Digital image correlation; LS-DYNA; FEM; SPG;

    Abstract : Blades used on brushcutters and lawn mowers are subjected to a wide variety of working conditions. Besides continuous loads from cutting grass, the blades are also subjected to accidental impacts of branches, stones and structures. READ MORE
