Popular Abstract in Swedish Vi människor konsumerar en ständigt ökande mängd elektrisk energi, som till största delen produceras av ändligt tillgängliga material som kol, gas, olja och uran. Elproduktionen har många skadliga bieffekter, som till exempel utsläpp av växthusgasen koldioxid vid förbränning av kol, gas och olja. Solceller omvandlar istället solens ljus direkt till elektricitet. ProcessIn this thesis, in situ doping during growth of III-V semiconductor nanowires, primarily for photovoltaic applications, is investigated. The nanowires were grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE), with gold seed particles. After growth the nanowires were characterized using various techniques, including photoluminescence, transmission electron microscopy and electrical measurements of co

This article on the Swedish reception of the work and theories of feminist philosopher Judith Butler follows four feminist fields that introduced and discussed Butler’s work from the early 1990’s to the early 2000’s; the first and earliest being the radical feminist field, followed by the field of feminist literary studies, the field of queer theory and, as a field of its own, the various translat

The moisture conditions of a concrete have a decisive effect on several properties and many parts of deterioration processes. The moisture distribution in a concrete structure is determined by the concrete composition, curing and the microclimate in the different parts of the structure. A prediction requires access to data on the time-dependency of the binder reactions, moisture fixation and moist

Monumental Past is a living text based on a doctoral dissertation submitted by Cornelius J. Holtorf to the University of Wales in 1998. It explores the social and cultural meanings of megaliths from later prehistoric Mecklenburg-Vorpommern located in northeastern Germany. The author engages directly with current debates about the significance of monuments, events and processes in their life histo

Popular Abstract in English Organic synthesis has been defined as the “intentional construction of molecules by chemical means”1 and is often regarded to have commenced with Wöhler’s preparation of urea in 1828.2 Today, the influence of organic synthesis reaches far beyond the domain of chemistry, touching upon fields such as biology, nanotechnology, material science, and medicine. It has thus supThis thesis deals with the development of new reaction methodology for stereoselective synthesis, as well as total synthesis of natural products and investigations of the stereochemical outcome in the Mukaiyama aldol reaction. Chapter 2 describes efforts made towards the total synthesis of the oxindole natural products perophoramidine and the communesin. The first part of this chapter aims to de
