Transparenta material som kan leda ström är viktiga för bland annat solceller. Nu har ett sådant material, indiumtennoxid (ITO), för första gången tillverkats i rekordliten storlek för att användas till exotiska solcellsprover på nanoskalan. ”Konventionella” solceller lider av ett problem som kan liknas vid grötproblemet Guldlock stötte på hos de tre björnarna: när solen lyser på solceller kommerNanowires have attracted interest as fundamental building blocks for electronic and optoelectronic devices as well as for fundamental research. Photonic studies of single nanowire devices typically involve patterning of metal electrodes for electronic access, yet plasmonic ef- fects between the metal contacts and the light source may perturb experimental measurements. An alternative to conventiona

The ATLAS@Home project is a volunteer computing project, part of the larger LHC@Home project, aimed at using the computational power of personal computers from volunteers around the globe, who are interested in helping with the particle physics research taking place at the ATLAS experiment at LHC. Up this point it runs only ATLAS detector simulation tasks. This thesis explores the possibility of h

In the peak of the 2015 refugee crisis, Sweden stipulated a new law in order to give the system respite while recovering from the pressure that followed from the 162 877 asylum applications Sweden received that year. The Act (2016:752) on temporary limitations of the opportunity to be granted residence permit in Sweden entered to force on 19 July 2016 to apply for three years. The law constitution

Ett för entreprenadavtalet utmärkande drag är beställarens ändringsbefogenhet, vilken innebär att beställaren under entreprenadtidens gång har möjlighet att ändra avtalets omfattning. Att utnyttjandet av ändringsbefogenheten vanligen medför produktionsförluster för entreprenören är den generella uppfattningen i branschen. Ersättning för denna typ av kostnader går att utfå med hjälp av AB 04 kap. 6A distinctive feature of the construction contract is the client’s authority to change the scope of the agreement. The fact that the use of the change authority usually entails production losses for the contractor is the general perception of the industry. Compensation for this type of costs can be obtained according to AB 04 chapter 6, clause 5, when a change order or a change in relation to the

Purpose The purpose of this study is to better understand the concept of strategic thinking. There is a lack of scientific knowledge and consensus in the area of strategic thinking. This is, however, important since organisations are exposed to environments with high levels of uncertainty and complexity these days. To remain competitive in such volatile environments, the need for employees and man

Av artikel 3 i 1984 års Tortyrkonvention (CAT) framgår att varje konventionsstat är skyldig att avstå från att utvisa, återföra eller utlämna en person till en annan stat, i vilken det finns grundad anledning att tro att personen riskerar att utsättas för tortyr. Non-refoulement i artikel 3 CAT är en absolut rättighet vilket innebär att stater inte kan ursäkta utlämningar till tortyrutövande stateThe principle of non-refoulement is expressed in article 3 of the 1984 UN Convention against Torture (CAT). According to this article no state party shall expel, return or extradite a person to another state where there are substantial grounds for believing that he or she would be in danger of being subjected to torture. The prohibition of refoulement is an absolute principle; this means that no e

The aim of this study is to highlight the emergence and spread of black protest, with a focus on Warsaw and Cracow in Poland, as well as Malmö in Sweden, from the participants’ perspective. Together with a historical background and theoretical discussion, I analysed the “Voices of Women” petition from the International Women’s Strike, and five qualitative research interviews with participants of t

Power supply is a social necessity, and will so continue to be in the near future. Therefore, safe and steady deliverance of power supply is a fundamental duty of the societies and the preparedness of the vulnerability of the infrastructures is highly prioritized. The power supply comprises every component needed for transmission of electrical power from generation to consumption, power transform

Purpose: To explore the roles of brand culture, brand image and brand vision in the context of “green” corporate brands, and identify pitfalls when these elements are not aligned. Methodology: Qualitative research method using primary data (interviews with former and current employees) and secondary data. Findings: In this paper, there are several findings derived from an employee perspective and

Har ditt intresse för friluftsliv och att vistas ute i naturen ökat under Covid-19 pandemin? Har du ”hemestrat” eller naturtturistat i Sverige istället för att åka till Grekland under sommaren? Du är inte ensam om det utan del av en ny global trend där allt fler väljer att upptäcka de naturvärden som finns hemma. Till följd av reserestriktioner och rekommendationer att socialisera utomhus har intDuring the spring of 2020 the world was hit by the Covid-19 pandemic which led to unpredicted and interesting effects in the domestic tourism sector. As a result of travel restrictions and social distancing recommendations there was an increase in visitors to national parks, hiking trails and other recreational areas in Sweden. The amount of visitors to the High Coast trail located in the east of

This thesis investigates the self-assembly dynamics and structural characteristics of cesium lead bromide (C sPbBr3) nanocrystals (NCs) into mesocrystals (MCs) using in situ Small- and Wide-angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS/WAXS) techniques. Central to this study is the exploration of the temporal evolution of mesocrystal formation and the associated superlattice peak-split due to the alignment of ide

Denna uppsats analyserar förhållandet mellan hållbart företagande vinstsyftet inom svensk aktiebolagsrätt. Det traditionella synsättet att företag primärt existerar för att generera vinst har länge präglat bolagsstyrningen. Denna norm har dock utmanats av växande krav på att företag ska ta hänsyn till sociala och miljömässiga faktorer. Kritiker menar att vinstsyftet riskerar att främja kortsiktiga

PurposeBlood culture collection with all bottles filled from a single venipuncture (single-sampling strategy, SSS) is increasingly used. More data on the effects of SSS on blood culture contamination is needed. After combined implementation of SSS and initial specimen diversion (ISDT) in our region, we evaluated the proportion of sampling events with at least four bottles, with growth of relevant

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Treatment of cancer with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) entails a risk of immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Data on the treatment of immune-related enterocolitis (irEC) in patients with inadequate symptom control after treatment with standard therapy including corticosteroids, infliximab, and vedolizumab are scarce. Based on limited data, recommendations include t
