Surface processes play a large role in the growth of semiconductor nanowires by chemical beam epitaxy. In particular, for III-V nanowires the surface diffusion of group-III species is important to understand in order to control the nanowire growth. In this paper, we have grown InAs-based nanowires positioned by electron beam lithography and have investigated the dependence of the diffusion of In s
Abstract in UndeterminedSometimes energy security is used as an advocacy for renewable energy systems. Although renewable energy systems can surely have such characteristics they will not per se solve all types of security problems, and new problems will most certainly arise. In this paper, energy security aspects of renewable energy systems are analysed taking the starting point in a broad typolo
Rapporten behandlar marknadens möjligheter och begränsningar inom välfärdsområdet både vad gäller finansiering och produktion. Finansieringsaspekten handlar om möjligheterna till ökat inslag av försäkringar avseende t.ex. sjukfrånvaro, arbetslöshet, sjukvård och äldreomsorg. Produktionsaspekten handlar om möjligheterna att intensifiera konkurrensen inom en rad områden som exempelvis skola, vård,
The increasing number of mobile devices and high-speed services accelerate the growth of traffic in cellular backhaul networks. The traditional technologies used in the backhaul, copper, radio links and optical fibers, either cannot offer high data-rate, or are expensive. In this paper, we propose mixed integer programming models to facilitate upgrading the cellular backhaul using the free space o

The rise of the far right in Europe is central to an understanding of the new political variables emerging in the face of the European economic crisis. This paper focuses on the media representations of Greece and its role in the economic crisis by extra-parliamentarian groups of the far right in Denmark and Sweden. It demonstrates how the parliamentary extreme right in these countries “blame” Gre
In a small perception study, our ability to estimate speaker age from speech samples was investigated with respect to stimulus duration, stimulus type and speaker gender. Four separate listening tests were carried out with four different sets of stimuli: 10 and 3 seconds of spontaneous speech, one isolated word, and 6 concatenated isolated words, all produced by the same 24 speakers. The results s
The aim of this study is to generate a quality-controlled sub-kilometer dataset of the fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (FAPAR) across Scandinavia from satellite. FAPAR is required for estimating the amount of PAR absorbed (APAR) by vegetation, which in turn allows for estimation of carbon uptake. In this study, FA-PAR was modeled from normalized difference vegetation index
A previous investigation has shown that at normal angle of incidence, the integral of the reflectance over wavelength is bounded for a flat metal backed absorber. The bound is applicable to any absorber made of linear, time-invariant, causal and passive materials. We generalize the physical bound to arbitrary angle of incidence and polarization. Different design examples and numerical calculations
In this paper, we present the design and fabrication of biosensors based on SU-8 cantilevers with a thickness ≤ 5μm. The processing of the polymer was optimized to reduce initial bending of the devices which is essential for optical read-out of the cantilever deflection. Solvent absorption in the SU-8 had to be minimized to reduce drift of the cantilever bending during measurements in liquid. The
Timber and glass are materials with aesthetically pleasing properties. If the materials can be combined appropriately, drawbacks can be overcome and the beneficial mechanical properties utilised and timber/glass elements can be a natural part of the load-carrying structure of buildings. Since glass is a brittle material, an important task for the timber is to provide redundancy – a glass failur
