Direct bandgap metal lead halide perovskites offer promising optoelectronic properties desirable in a wide range of applications including photodetection. However, the incomplete and poor understanding of the photophysical processes taking place in these materials, along with their poor stability, is the bottleneck for optimisation and further development of metal halide perovskite devices. In thi
Context: Test driven development (TDD) has been extensively researched and compared to traditional approaches (test last development, TLD). Existing literature reviews show varying results for TDD. Objective: This study investigates how the conclusions of existing literature reviews change when taking two study quality dimension into account, namely rigor and relevance. Method: In this study a sys
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Jordens klimat står under ständiga variationer och förändringar, och det är inte alltid lätt att sära på orsak och verkan bland den mängd av faktorer som styr klimatet. För att kunna reda ut ursprunget till de förändringar som sker, måste de bakomliggande processerna vara väl kända. Sedan är det möjligt att genom matematiska modeller uppskatta de individuella prSeveral studies have analysed the relationship between Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and radiative surface temperature. A main goal for most studies have been to find the best method for carrying out land cover classifications and to study land cover changes, based on a combination between the two parameters. Since atmospheric components have a significant influence on both paramet
Over the last decades the Swedish disability policy has changed from institutional to individual care. As a part of this transformation the government passed a National Disability Strategy in 2000. The aims of the strategy are: to improve the accessibility for persons with disabilities, to make the disability perspective a part of all sectors of society, and to improve the way persons with disabil
ABSTRACT Author: Oras Jacobs Title: The chameleon in the hospitals - a study based on hospital welfare officers experiences and strategies. Supervisor: Tabitha Wright Nielsen Assessor: Gunilla Lindén The purpose of this paper is to investigate how hospital welfare officers experience their role and the strategies applied to establish themselves. With the aim of answering these questions, six
This study aims to present different factors influencing growth comparing Innovative Gazelles and other average SMEs. In addition, this study will investigate relevance of factors fostering innovation in high-growing SMEs in a cross-country perspective in order to show how Innovative Gazelles differ from SMEs in general. The study applies qualitative approach of multi case study, which will be con
Hals- och huvudregionen innehåller många luftkaviteter t.ex. luftstrupe, bihålor och munhåla. Detta arbete undersökte vad som händer i vävnaden kring dessa luftkaviteter när de blir bestrålade med fotoner och hur bra ett dosplaneringssystem för strålbehandling modellerar den absorberade dosen till ett heterogent medium. Dosberäkningarna gjordes med hjälp av ett Monte Carlo-simuleringsprogram somPurpose: To study the build-down and build up of the absorbed dose at the interface between air and tissue in the head and neck region. Monte Carlo simulations are compared to a treatment planning system that is used at the University Hospital in Lund. Materials and methods A virtual phantom was constructed to resemble an air cavity in the head and neck region. The phantom consisted of a water cyl
This thesis addresses the impact of social- and labor market policies on youth unemployment in China; particularly on NEETs. The acronym NEET stands for the youths aged 15-34 that are “Not in Education, Employment or Training”. This group of individuals is experiencing a bad time with less job opportunities and more competitive labor market which are led by the recession. NEETs and their families
Uppsatsen är en komparativ immaterialrättslig studie av svensk och amerikansk upphovsrätt. Frågeställningen gäller vilka undantag som kan göras från upphovsmannens rättigheter i svensk och amerikansk upphovsrätt. Uppsatsen fokuserar främst på den amerikanska doktrinen om Fair Use, som utgör en central del av den amerikanska upphovsrätten och regleras i 17 USC § 107. Undantagen från den svenska uppThis paper is a comparative study concerning the limitations on the exclusive rights of the copyright owner in Swedish and American copyright law. The paper is primarily focused on the American Fair Use Doctrine, which is a central part of U.S. copyright and is codified in 17 USC § 107. The limitations on the exclusive rights in Swedish copyright law are found in Chapter 2 of the Swedish Copyright
Reliable and effective verification of soil carbon sequestration is required for quantification of project-based greenhouse gas mitigation. Direct soil sampling is necessary for measurements at field level. In this study, soil samples from a semiarid agroecosystem of the Sudan were statistically analyzed to evaluate if changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) over time or space were detectable or not,
BACKGROUND. To evaluate the relationship between stillbirth in singleton pregnancy (> or = 28 weeks gestation) and maternal weight (weight gain) from 24 completed weeks. METHODS. All fetal deaths (n = 210) at five delivery units during seven years in southern Sweden were analysed. To each case a control mother was selected, the only matching criteria being parity and place of delivery. Regression
The aim of this study was to explore social workers’ experiences of their client relationships. More specifically we wanted to explore in which way the social workers experience that their position of power affect them in the client meetings and in what way they experience that the organization, both direct and indirect, affect the development of a good client relationsships. The method chosen for
Objective. While the prevalence of radiographic thumb carpometacarpal (CMC1) osteoarthritis (OA) is well-described, little is known about clinically symptomatic disease presenting to physicians for care. We sought to determine the prevalence of doctor-diagnosed CMC1 OA. Methods. Using health care data from Skane in southern Sweden (population 1.24 million), we identified all adults ages >= 20 year
Abstract in UndeterminedAction plans are an important tool for meeting the EU renewable energy targets. Planning of biomass at national level has recently shifted from biomass action plans to renewable energy action plans; the latter still assigning special attention to biomass. A number of regions have also developed or are developing biomass plans. However, even though such plans are to assist t
Fennoscandia has a strong tradition in dendrochronology, and its large tracts of boreal forest make the region well suited for the development of tree-ring chronologies that extend back several thousands of years. Two of the world's longest continuous (most tree-ring chronologies are annually resolved) tree-ring width chronologies are found in northern Fennoscandia, with records from Tornetrask an
This thesis is an attempt to discuss the proposals to improve the statuses and rights of the legally resident third country nationals living in the European Union. As denizens, third country nationals have full civil and social rights but they do not have any political rights. This is believed to denote an anomaly, which can be corrected through the grant of political rights. However, political ri
In Sweden, energy utilities face the double challenge of complying with the Kyoto protocol targets and increasing renewable energy capacity to make use of the electricity certificates system. Sydkraft AB and Vattenfall AB, two of the largest players in the Nordic electricity market, have different expectations regarding the future development of the two mechanisms and, therefore, have different ap
