Measuring Material Properties through Gradient Based NMR: Diffusion and Imaging

In this work new methods based Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) have been developed to measure different kinds of structural properties in soft materials. The advantage of using NMR as a technique to measure material properties is that it is non-destructive, which makes it possible to measure on the actual piece of material that will be used for the application. One does not have to be concerned

Organizational core values: Goals or Corporate bullshit? A study of leadership and values

Purpose : to gain knowledge on how managers experience organizational core values, and to explore how the managers look upon the significance of such values in relation to their leadership. Theoretical framework : organisational culture (Schein) and action theory (Argyris & Schön). Regarding values, social influence and theories on motivation, studies by Rokeach , Sheldon and Elliot. Theory

Theorizing the Professions. Outline to an explanatory model.

In a previous article (published in Professional Identities in Transition, 1999) I invented two macro-sociological concepts for capturing the historical development of professions, called professional types and professional waves. Even though Sweden was used as the sole empirical base for the two concepts, it was claimed that they would be applicable to other professions, especially Continental on

Health Hazards of Building Materials

There is growing concern about the possible hazards which can result from the use of certain organic building materials. The issue has received a great deal of attention in industrial countries in temperate climates, because indoor air pollution is frequent in tight, energy efficient buildings with low rates of ventilation. This is not yet a problem all over the world, but an awareness of the risk

Photoluminescence Studies of Single Quantum Dots

This thesis presents photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy studies of single III-V semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). The electronic properties of the QDs, as well as, the dynamics of the processes taking part inside and in the surroundings of the QDs have been studied by single quantum dot photoluminescence spectroscopy, time resolved spectroscopy, and correlation spectroscopy. A detailed overview o
