The demand for cheaper and more efficient solar cells is high. One way to decrease cost of material, while maintaining a high degree of efficiency, is to take advantage of nanomaterials. A thin film containing pn-junction nanowires can convert light with an efficiency comparable to traditional planar cells, while using a fraction of the material, and thus reduce costs. At the company Sol Voltaics

Ständiga förbättringar är viktiga för att upprätthålla ett företags konkurrenskraft inom sin bransch. Kunderna vill ha en hög leveranssäkerhet och flexibilitet för sina ordrar, men utförande från tillverkningsföretagens sida riskerar att vara bristande. Därför kan utförandet av kartläggningar och mätningar av orderprocessen, i kombination med förbättringar, stärka ett företags vidare konkurrenskraContinuous improvement is important for maintaining a company’s competitive position in its own industry. Customers want a high delivery reliability and flexibility for their orders, but the performance of the manufacturers is likely to be deficient.

Min kandidatuppsats fokuserar på att analysera vilka möjligheter det finns att förena vinstsyftet enligt 3 kap. 3 § aktiebolagslagen med hållbarhet. Både hållbarhet och vinstsyfte är viktiga aspekter. Det är svårt att kombinera de två aspekterna i ett aktiebolag då vinstgenerering är det man strävar efter, detta kan leda till kollision med hållbarhetsaspekter. I det andra kapitlet ligger fokuset pMy bachelor's thesis focuses on analyzing the possibilities of reconciling the profit motive according to Chapter 3, Section 3 of the Swedish Companies Act with sustainability. Both sustainability and profit motive are important aspects. It is difficult to combine the two aspects in a limited liability company when profit generation is the aim, which can lead to a collision with sustainability
