UHV-CVD growth of Ge/Si nanostructures

This thesis is based on the results concerning the epitaxial growth and characterization of silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge) nanostructures. The growth technique was the Ultra High Vacuum Chemical Vapor Deposition (UHV-CVD) that works in relatively low temperatures and low growth pressures. The UHV-CVD chamber was also used for the reduction experiments. The work presented here involves three diff

Markers predicting sensitivity to polyamine depletion in human breast cancer cell lines

In spite of different treatment strategies today, breast cancer mortality is still high and new treatments are therefore needed. Potential new treatments can be found among the polyamine analogues. Polyamine analogues can be used in cancer treatment as cancer cells have a higher requirement for polyamines than the surrounding healthy tissue. Polyamines are flexible positive ions essential for the

Appointments Shrouded in Mystery The profiles of ten Swedish Auditors-General

The Auditors-General can have a profound impact on the work of the Supreme Audit Institution (SAI), in terms of the quality, autonomy and efficiency of audit work. In Sweden, this recruitment is prepared by the Committee on the Constitution, before the final decision is made by Parliament. The appointment is, however, shrouded in mystery and not even candidate profile requirements are openly adver

The Surprise of Candour: Employee Cynicism and technological Change in Late Modernity Work

As an attitude characterized by frustration, hopelessness, betrayal and disillusionment (Andersson, 1996; Wanous et al. 1994) employee cynicism or organizational cynicism could be considered a specific attitude of interest to the research of information system (IS) implementations. Today a broad literature body has emerged within the IS research community investigating the organizational consequen

Development of Advanced Furnace Control Algorithm

In the continuous work on improving product quality and reducing energy consumption at The Danish Steel Works Ltd. the importance of optimal furnace operation has been recognised in many different contexts. Therefore a joint project with the Department of Automatic Control at Lund Institute of Technology has been started with the purpose of developing a novel slab temperature control algorithm for
