Popular Abstract in Swedish Kvantprickar är objekt där elektroner är instängda i en mycket liten volym (av storleksordningen 100 nanometer i varje riktning). I den här avhandlingen har vi studerat kvantprickar definierade i nanotrådar av halvledarmaterial. Nanotrådarna kan vara flera mikrometer långa men samtidigt mycket tunna (mindre än 100 nanometer eller 0,1 mikrometer). Vi har skapat kvantpriThis thesis focuses on electrical transport in semiconductor InAs nanowires grown by chemical beam epitaxy. Initially, transport length scales of homogeneous InAs n-type nanowires are characterized by low-temperature magnetoconductance measurements. The measurements show phase-coherent conductivity corrections. By fitting the data, we find the nanowire mean-free path to be 50 nm and the phase-cohe

Using two epochs of observations with HST/WFPC2 we obtain the stellar proper motions for all stars in the field. The proper motion are used to separate the bulge from the cluster stars. The stellar sequences in the resulting colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) are better defined than in any previously published CMD. Using a-enhanced stellar isochrones we find NGC 6528 to have a probable age of 11 +/- 2

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling beskriver arbetet med att ta fram ett avgasreningssystem för att minska mängderna kväveoxider, NOx, som lastbilstrafik ger upphov till. Kväveoxid (NO) och kvävedioxid (NO2) i en godtycklig blandning brukar betecknas som NOx. NOx bildas vid i stort sett all förbränning, t.ex. i kraftverk eller fordon, och om avgaserna inte renas följer kväveoxiderna med The objective of the work described in this thesis is to identify the principles and parts of an aftertreatment system for the catalytic NOx reduction for heavy-duty diesel vehicles, and to demonstrate such a system in full-scale. The reducing agent is diesel fuel. Many advantageous features of the diesel engine, such as life span, reliability and efficiency, make the engine the most frequent pow

The Death of Sacred Texts draws attention to a much neglected topic in the study of sacred texts: the religious and ritual attitudes towards texts which have become old and damaged and can no longer be used for reading practices or in religious worship. This book approaches religious texts and scriptures by focusing on their physical properties and the dynamic interactions of devices and habits th

Klimatomställning ses av många som en väg ut ur den hotande klimatkrisen. Problemet är bara att klimatomställning inte är ett entydigt begrepp, varför det i klimatdebatten förekommer olika uppfattningar om hur genomgripande samhällsförändringar som krävs för att begränsa den globala uppvärmningen. Somliga ser en radikal omställning av de ekonomiska och politiska systemen som en nödvändighet, medan

Coupled gas chromatographic (GC)–electroantennographic detection (EAD) analyses of ovipositor extract of calling Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor, females revealed that seven compounds elicited responses from male antennae. Four of the compounds—(2S)-tridec-2-yl acetate, (2S,10Z)-10-tridecen-2-yl acetate, (2S,10E)-10- tridecen-2-yl acetate, and (2S,10E)-10-tridecen-2-ol—were identified previously

This paper presents a highly linear radio frequency receiver front-end with on-chip balun for cellular application at 2GHz in 65nm CMOS technology. Based on direct conversion architecture, the implemented front-end comprises a customized on-chip balun for single-ended to differential signal conversion, a differential common-gate low noise amplifier and voltage mode quadrature passive mixer. The si
