Integration of Ferroelectric HfO2 onto a III-V Nanowire Platform

The discovery of ferroelectricity in CMOS-compatible oxides, such as doped hafnium oxide, has opened new possibilities for electronics by reviving the use of ferroelectric implementations on modern technology platforms. This thesis presents the ground-up integration of ferroelectric HfO2 on a thermally sensitive III-V nanowire platform leading to the successful implementation of ferroelectric tran

Assessment of exposure determinants and exposure levels by using stationary concentration measurements and a probabilistic near-field/far-field exposure model

Background: The Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) regulation requires the establishment of Conditions of Use (CoU) for all exposure scenarios to ensure good communication of safe working practices. Setting CoU requires the risk assessment of all relevant Contributing Scenarios (CSs) in the exposure scenario. A new CS has to be created whenever an Operatio

Quantification of the inhaled deposited dose during sand and dust storms

Exposure to dust particles during a sand and dust storm (SDS) can be harmful for health. The first step to understand the health effects of such exposure is to quantify the amount of deposited dust particles in the respiratory tracts. In this book chapter, a brief summary is presented about: (1) the outbreak mechanisms dust particles and being airborne, (2) physical and chemical characteristics of

The First Practical Guide to Inflation Targeting

When Sweden left the gold standard on September 27, 1931, the Swedish government declared that the aim of monetary policy should be to stabilize the domestic purchasing power of the Swedish currency, the krona. With this step, price level targeting officially became for the first time the goal for a central bank. Soon after, the Riksbank (Bank of Sweden) sent a questionnaire to three prominent eco

Formalin-free fixation and xylene-free tissue processing preserves cell-hydrogel interactions for histological evaluation of 3D calcium alginate tissue engineered constructs

Histological evaluation of tissue-engineered products, including hydrogels for cellular encapsulation, is a critical and invaluable tool for assessing the product across multiple stages of its lifecycle from manufacture to implantation. However, many tissue-engineered products are comprised of polymers and hydrogels which are not optimized for use with conventional methods of tissue fixation and h

Hybridorganisationer

Begreppet hybrid har formligen exploderat och man kan knappt läsa en tidning eller en produktannons i dag utan att stöta på detta ord. Åtskilliga studier inom ämnen som företagsekonomi, organisationssociologi och statsvetenskap säger sig också handla om just hybridorganisationer. Samtidigt uppstår då frågan vad begreppet egentligen tillför och om det bidrar till vår förståelse av organisationer. K

Empty Innovation : Causes and Consequences of Society's Obsession with Entrepreneurship and Growth

Innovation is generally viewed as something inherently good, a source of progress and prosperity in our society. But innovation can also have negative, unintended, and wasteful effects, if policies are misdirected and organizations pursue innovation to look good and convey a message, rather than to actually achieve improvements of technologies, services, and products. This book makes the case that

Handlingarnas sken : om litterär slitning i det dramatiska

The subject of this thesis is what I call a literary friction in the dramatic. In my research project, my aim has been to deepen the understanding of this friction and to make it productive in transforming my own dramatic writing. This has resulted in two dramatic works, which are presented in the thesis. I distinguish two different qualities in my writing – the dramatic and the literary – that I The subject of this thesis is what I call a literary friction in the dramatic.

Dynamical Analysis of Terahertz Quantum Cascade Lasers

This thesis focuses on various aspects in terahertz quantum cascade lasers such as high temperature performances, electrical instabilities and chaos. In the first part of the thesis, an introduction to the topic and the non equilibrium Green's function package applied is given with particular emphasise on the inhomogeneous domain model and the chaos theory. In addition, new results regarding the h

Physical Bounds on Antennas with Feed Constraints

Antenna current optimization has been used to derive physical bounds on antenna parameters such as Q-factor, radiation efficiency, gain, directivity, capacity, and radiation patterns. The success of the methodology is partly due to the assumption of absolute control of the antenna current in the antenna region which in practice producing an array antenna with multiple feeds. Details of the feed su

Neoliberally framed suffering in professionals and patients in palliative care settings – ’telling cases’ from an ethnographic multi-sited field study in Denmark

In western countries, palliative care is a part of the formal healthcare system, ruled by neoliberal, organisational ideas. This Danish study illuminates how nurses and patients with non-western immigrant backgrounds (inter)act in relation to encounters in palliative care settings. Two ‘telling’ cases were selected, based on interviews and participating observations from a multi-sited ethnographic

”Nya teorier i gamla läglar? Rätten i en förändrad kontext”: Rättssociologiska reflektioner om skadeståndslagens dynamik
