Epitaxial III-V nanowhiskers have been grown with orientation in the [111]B and [100] directions. While the nature of the crystal structure in the (111)B type of whiskers varies more or less at random between hexagonal (wurtzite) and cubic (zincblende) structure, the (100) type whiskers are of single crystal zincblende structure. We show that the bounding surface facets of the whiskers are either

Popular Abstract in Swedish En kolkredit motsvarar i teorin en minskning av växthusgaser motsvarande ett ton koldioxid. Dessa krediters miljömässiga trovärdighet har varit en het diskussionsfråga i akademiska och politiska sammanhang i många år men blev mer allmänt uppmärksammat i tv och nyheter efter att FNs Kyotoprotokoll trädde i kraft 2005. Kyotoprotokollet är ett internationellt klimatavtal dCarbon credits are used as an instrument for climate change mitigation. Each credit represents a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) equivalent of 1 ton of carbon dioxide. Crediting mechanisms and the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) of the Kyoto Protocol in particular have been important for the international efforts to limit GHG emissions and the engagement of developing countries in m

A single-ended two-stage 3.1-10.6GHz Low Noise Amplifier aimed for Ultra Wide Band (UWB) communication is presented. The LNA is fabricated in a 90nm CMOS process and measures just 0.31x0.41 mm2 including pads. The first stage topology is common-gate, to achieve a wideband input match. The second stage is a common source stage with resistive shunt feedback, to achieve high and flat gain over a wide

The goal of the present deliverable is to provide a developmental analysis of attentional intersubjectivity, which, as we show below, is a more inclusive notion than the more commonly used term ‘joint attention’ (e.g. Moore & Dunham 1995). The use of the term ‘joint attention’ is not consistent in the literature, sometimes referring to the general phenomenon when two or more subjects attend to

This report supplements the report "Industrial Relations Foresight for Sweden: Presentation of Results and Comments. While the latter report focus on Sweden does this report primarily contain comparisons between the 34 countries participating in the Eurofound project on future industrial relations up to the year 2025.

Issues with software product quality are commonly reported when organisations engage in outsourcing relationships. To address this issue, value-based software engineering literature emphasises the need for all success-critical stakeholder groups to work towards a mutually agreed goal. Aim: This paper presents a case study that aims to compare and contrast the priority two groups place on software

This chapter introduces the first main part of this volume, on the overarching 'architecture' of global climate governance beyond 2012. In particular, the central question that guides all chapters in this part is about the causes and consequences of fragmentation versus integration of governance architectures. We ask which type of governance architectures promises a higher degree of institutional

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under 1980-talet blev riskerna med blodtransfusioner alltmer uppenbara. Störst uppmärksamhet väckte ett antal fall med spridning av HIV- (AIDS) smitta, men ännu vanligare var spridning av ett virus som kunde orsaka leverinflammation. Dessa risker är numera nästan helt försvunna men dels kvarstår en oro för spridning av nya, okända virus, dels har det visat sig att blodtBlood loss in major arthroplasty may be abundant and often necessitates blood transfusions. These may transmit disease and entail an immunological burden to the recipient. After trauma and surgery, the fibrinolytic system reacts with a short period of increased activity, followed by a fibrinolytic shut-down. In this thesis we investigated the impact of the early fibrinolytic activation on blood
