Core–shell structural ZnSeTe/ZnSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) have attracted great attention for advanced illumination and displays because of their environmentally friendly composition, but still suffering from poor photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) performance due to severe non-radiative charge recombination. Herein, a stepwise injection shell growth process to manipulate the monome
Metal cutting technology plays an important role in the automotive and aeronautic sectors, both of whichare important for the Swedish economy. Both make use of traditional grey cast iron and difficult-to-machine materials like titanium alloys and compacted graphite iron. The tools used to machine thesematerials wear at varying rates depending on factors such as contact temperature, pressure, and t
Inhalation therapy treating severe infectious disease is among the more complex and emerging topics in controlled drug release. Micron-sized carriers are needed to deposit drugs into the lower airways, while nano-sized carriers are of preference for cell targeting. Here, we present a novel and versatile strategy using micron-sized spherical particles with an excellent aerodynamic profile that diss
En ökad efterfrågan på miljövänliga energialternativ har resulterat i att allt fler länder börjat utvärdera sina geotermala tillgångar. En bidragande orsak till det ökade geotermala intresset är förändrade krav som ställs på geologin och hydrologin med dagens moderna EGS-anläggningar. Med EGS-tekniken (Enhanced Geothermal Systems) skapar man idag konstgjorda reservoarer, för fjärrvärme- och elprodThe increasing demand for eco-friendly energy alternatives and the changing requirements of state of the art EGS-plants (Enhanced Geothermal Systems) have set the mark for many countries to start evaluating their geothermal assets. By using the EGS-technique, artificial reservoir providing district heating and electricity are created around the world by stimulating the bedrock hydrostatically with
The purpose of this study is to examine how social service handles incorrect information about them that is spreading on social media. This study is based on a qualitative method. In order to achieve the purpose of this work, the focus has been on the unit of child protection services and seven social workers have been interviewed. The study shows that social workers only handle incorrect informat
Sweden is a state governed by the rule of law, and is based on many different principles in order to ensure a functioning justice system. An important prin-ciple is that the rulings from the courts should be adamant, also known as the principle of firmness. The ruling of the court shall stand when it has gained legal force and this is also known as the negative legal force of a judgment. The human
Syfte: Att utveckla och validera ett kliniskt användbart frågeformulär för utvärdering av effekten av en kurs i Aktiv Kommunikation (AK). Metod: Ett frågeformulär utvecklades och reviderades utifrån kommentarer sprungna ur granskning genomförd av en grupp tidigare kursdeltagare och av ett antal kursledare i Aktiv Kommunikation. Formuläret fylldes sedan i av 61 andra, tidigare kursdeltagare. Ytterl
This essay presents a study regarding the processing of the personal data of a driver in an automated and connected vehicle in regards to the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). The investigation focuses on the lawfulness of processing and particularly on the legal bases consent, performance of a contract, legitimate interest and legal obligation. The aim of this study is to analyse under
Med utgångspunkt i en rättsdogmatisk metod har denna framställning syftat till att utreda gällande rättsläge beträffande otjänliga försök inom dansk och svensk straffrätt. Mer specifikt är det straffansvarets omfattning vid otjänliga försök som undersökts genom en kritisk komparation mellan svensk och dansk rätt. Som en konsekvens av en vag lagtext i 23 kap. 1 § BrB är otjänliga försök inom svenBy a legal dogmatic method, this thesis has intended to investigate the legislation in force regarding harmless attempted crimes within Danish and Swedish criminal law. More specifically, the scope of criminal liability in the case of harmless attempts has been examined through a critical comparison between Swedish and Danish law. Harmless attempted crimes are because of an indistinct text of la
OBJECTIVES: Our aim was to derive, based on the SWEDEHEART registry, and validate, using the Western Denmark Heart registry, a patient-oriented risk score, the SweDen score, which could calculate the risk of 1-year mortality following a myocardial infarction (MI).METHODS: The factors included in the SweDen score were age, sex, smoking, diabetes, heart failure and statin use. These were chosen a pr
Background: Mutations in BRCA2 cause a higher risk of early-onset aggressive prostate cancer (PrCa). The IMPACT study is evaluating targeted PrCa screening using prostate-specific-antigen (PSA) in men with germline BRCA1/2 mutations. Objective: To report the utility of PSA screening, PrCa incidence, positive predictive value of PSA, biopsy, and tumour characteristics after 3 yr of screening, by BR
This study presents a novel approach to forming low-resistance ohmic contacts for AlGaN/GaN HEMTs. The optimized contacts exhibit an outstanding contact resistance of approximately 0.15 Ω·mm. This is achieved by firstly recessing the barrier of the heterostructure to a depth beyond the channel. In this way, the channel region is exposed on the sidewall of the recess. The coverage of the Ti/Al/Ti o
Based on a modified force balance model, new correlations were proposed for the prediction of vapor bubble departure radius in saturated and subcooled pool boiling under atmospheric pressure. To predict the departure radius, the wall temperature and contact angle are two important input parameters. Instead of the static contact angle, the present correlations use the dynamic advancing contact angl
Aggregation of α-synuclein is associated with neurodegeneration and a hallmark pathology in synucleinopathies. These aggregates are thought to function as prion-like particles where the conformation of misfolded α-synuclein determines the traits of the induced pathology, similar to prion diseases. Still, little is known about the molecular targets facilitating the conformation-specific biological
Observational population studies indicate that prevention of dementia and cognitive decline is being accomplished, possibly as an unintended result of better vascular prevention and healthier lifestyles. Population aging in the coming decades requires deliberate efforts to further decrease its prevalence and societal burden. Increasing evidence supports the efficacy of preventive interventions on
