Abstract Metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) capacitor was fabricated on the InGaAs substrate with Al2O3/HfO2 gate oxide. InGaAs is one of the promising candidates for advanced applications which require the lower power supply and high frequency. The high-k films (Al2O3/HfO2) were formed by atomic layer deposition (ALD) as an alternative to silicon dioxide (SiO2) to proceed the scaling of oxide to low
Business Intelligence (BI) users have started to demand more flexible products, which has forced the BI field to move towards self-service. Flexible products do however imply new challenges for designers, in order to facilitate such design. Thus, BI designers must be capable of understanding organizations better and what decision makers need, and thereafter frame appropriate solutions for them. Th
The study will be focusing specifically on the impacts that these entrepreneurs have had on the UK (regional) economy. In the last 20 years we have seen a wealth of studies analyzing the determinants of entrepreneurship. Though some of these studies are theoretical (e.g. Holmes and Schmitz, 1990), others are empirical (e.g. Evans and Leighton, 1990). The impacts of entrepreneurship, in terms of ec
This Master’s thesis aims to identify aspects of the school librarians’ accessibility in the school library, which is the integral part of the local public library and where integration bears the meaning of two spheres of activities sharing both space and recourses. One of the aspects concerns the design of the library organization and its impact on the school librarians’ accessibility. Another as
The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is a mechanism under the Kyoto Protocol, which allows industrialised countries that have binding emission targets to invest in emission reduction projects in non-industrialised countries. These CDM investments generate certified emission reductions (CERs), which can be used by the industrialised countries towards meeting their own targets. The dual objective o
Abstract Title: “Acknowledging knowledge sharing - A Case Study of Knowledge Sharing in a Company in the Wind Turbine Manufacturing Industry.” Seminar date: 4th of June 2010 Course: BUSM Master thesis in Managing knowledge, people and change, 15 ECTS Author: Mikkel Kolstrup Supervisor: Sara Louise Muhr Key words: Tacit knowledge, Explicit knowledge, Knowledge sharing, Wind turbine industry, Rapid
The aim of this study was to search for factors that have provided a significant change in the life of five girls, aged 18 to 24 at the time of the study, who was, or had been, sentenced to institutional care. Social service interventions for children and young people are guided by the Social Services Act (SoL), the Care of Young Persons (Special Provisions) Act (LVU), and the Parental Code (Föräl
The number of irregular migrants increased in Turkey, especially after the EU-Turkey Joint Action Plan of 2016. This study examines the situation of undocumented Syrian migrants in terms of their capabilities and approaches to the well-being of this particular group from the normative framework of the capability approach with a specific focus on material conditions. Building on the Capability Appr
In traffic assignment, one of the key elements is the validation process. The validation allows the traffic planner to get an understanding of whether the model is working according to reality-based metrics, or if it must be improved. There are several different ways of collecting reality-based metrics, one these methods are called GPS probe data. Through this study, a survey as well as a case stu
The purpose of the thesis is to design a new antenna system and to verify its link performance in 5G FR2 mmWave frequency for handheld devices to enable cellular communication. The main objective is to design an antenna primarily at 28GHz and 39GHz to enhance spectrum efficiency, along with improved transmission data rates, enabling new cases like Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR) and
I en tid med återuppbyggnad av svenskt totalförsvar efterlyser olika aktörer ytterligare kunskap om civilsamhällets frivillighet. Den tidigare forskningen om frivillighet inom det här området saknar ett djupare individperspektiv kring hur frivillighet upplevs av den civila frivilliga, i förhållande till plikt, ansvar och krav. Syftet med denna fallstudie är därför att med kulturanalys fördjupa kun
Unlike effects associated with eutrophication and marine plastics, few are aware of the negative environmental impacts sand dredging can have on marine ecosystems. Major habitat losses, changes in salinity and increased turbidity impose a potential threat to a large variety of marine and brackish species. Even worse is the fact that few people know that sand extraction currently is taking place wi
Kerguelenöarna är en vulkanisk ögrupp belägen i det södra Indiska oceanen. Öarna ligger på polarfronten samt inom den cirkumpolära Antarktiska strömmen och södra halvklotets västvindsbälte. Detta gör Kerguelenöarna till en intressant plats för klimatstudier. Av denna anledning erhölls en tre meter lång sekvens av sediment från en sjö på ögruppen 2013. Kol-14 datering av sjösedimenten gav ett gåtfuThe Kerguelen archipelago is a volcanic island group in the southern Indian Ocean. It is located on the polar front as well as within the Circumpolar Antarctic Current and the Southern Hemisphere Westerly Wind Belt. This makes it an interesting location for paleoclimate studies. For this reason, a three meter long sediment sequence from a lake on the archipelago was retrieved in 2013. Radiocarbon
Lean is a concept and methodology created and developed in the automobile industry. Today it has become widely used in public service organizations in Sweden. The aim of this study was to examine how the Swedish Migration Agency communicates about why and how they have adapted Lean. Furthermore, it investigates how the Swedish Migration Agency in this process try to make their organization legitim
Mental illness is a growing social problem that has to be understood in order to counteract it. People with mental illness often need some kind of treatment to deal with their problems and finding this treatment is an important part of the rehabilitation process. This process is not always easy and sometime it leads to the person not getting help at all. In this analysis we discuss different ways
This thesis presents and analyses the results of the prime working age (25-65), divided into two diverse groups, 25-45 and 45-65, of licensed practical nurses (LPN) perceived occupational status in the Swedish home-care business. The purpose is to understand what influences the perception of two diverse age groups of licensed practical nurses occupational status, bringing nuance to the phenomenon,
Denna rapport är en brandteknisk riskvärdering av “Cube” i Lund, Sverige. Scenarioanalysen visade att tre utav de tio scenarier som undersöktes uppskattades vara av högre risk för personsäkerheten än övriga. Det var A - brand i receptionen på entréplan, B - brand på kontoret beläget på plan tre samt C - brand i restaurangen på entréplan. Scenarierna valdes därför ut för vidare analys och simuleriThis report is an evaluation of the fire safety of “Cube” in Lund, Sweden. The analysis of the different scenarios showed that three out of the ten scenarios chosen were deemed to be of a higher risk for human life than the remaining seven. The three scenarios were A - fire in the reception located on the ground floor, B - fire in the office space located of the third floor and C - fire in the re
