Surface Chemistry and Electrical properties of nanowire devices

Surface chemistry and electrical properties of InAs and InP III-V semiconductor nanowires and nanowire based devices were studied using Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and Spectroscopic Emission and Low Energy Electron Microscopy (SPELEEM). Changes of the surface as well as electrical properties in these devices as a function of annealing temperature under atomic hydrogen background were studi

Konceptrekrytering? - En kandidatuppsats om rekryteringsprocesser på livsstilshotell

Obekväma insikter - En studie av aktörers förhållningssätt till bärkraftighet på en begränsad yta

Tydligt avgränsade områden tenderar att snabbt möta problematiken i hur den begränsade ytan skall disponeras mellan lokalbefolkning, aktörer samt turister. Ytan blir snabbt kompakt vilket innebär påfrestningar på bärkraftigheten och visar sig i olika konsekvenser i samhället. Studien har genomförts för att utröna vilka olika förhållningssätt till hållbar utveckling aktörerna antar och vilka möjlig

The reform, implemented in 2008, aims to positively influence circular migration. This study sets out to analyze strengths and flaws of the new system, through investigating the perception of actors in contact with the current legal labour migrant sit

Taiwanese Identity in a Global Context: Young Taiwanese Sojourners in Sweden

While Taiwanese identity within a political or economic China-Taiwan framework has been extensively investigated, Taiwanese identity in a global context is relatively unexplored. This paper studies how young Taiwanese sojourners in Sweden encounter their identity when they are outside the physical borders of Taiwan and what it means to be Taiwanese in the globalized world. 14 in-depth interviews w

Confessions. Structural mechanisms for regulation, interpretation and knowledge of vulvar pain

Southeast Asian Security Complex: The Case of The Spratly Islands Conflict

The issue of security is still an aspect of concern for domestic and international politics. In Southeast Asia, in 2003, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) agreed to establish three pillars for the future single community by 2015: the ASEAN Political-Security Community (APSC), the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), and the ASEAN Socio-Cultural Community (ASCC). To live at peace with o

Simulation of ultrasonic testing on ESS Target Shaft

The target shaft in the Target Station of the ESS facility rotates and supports the target wheel and serves as an inflow and outflow for the coolant. Different kinds of stresses that the target shaft is exposed to can create defects or ruptures. Therefore the target shaft has to be monitored so material damage can be avoided. The objective of this master thesis was to investigate the possibility f

Cloud Computing: benefits, risks and risk prevention

Cloud computing is an infrastructure that allows companies to rent any type of computing resources, such as network capacity and processing power, according to their current needs. Rather than a new technology, cloud computing is a new way of delivering computing resources. Despite the advantages that this infrastructure brings, it still poses many threats in several areas. In Sweden alone one thi

Every Mind (of a VoT) is a Universe: a field-based study on assisting victims of human trafficking beyond the template

The aim of this thesis was to identify the implications of the normative premises which are present in the NGO AgainstHTR-S, which works with assistance of victims of human trafficking for sexual purposes. This in order to outline how and why the NGO has the potential to adapt its “Attention Model” to the needs of the individual. In conjunction with a field work in Costa Rica, empirical data was g

Modeling the growth and regional extent of new particle formation events

As aerosol particles are important for global climate effects, their sources and influence on global aerosol particle concentrations need to be quantified. One of the major aerosol sources in the atmosphere is new particle formation (NPF) of new nanometer sized particles in the atmosphere. The influence on the global aerosol concentration due to NPF events is however not well quantified. The goals

Den Globala Finanskrisen & Svensk nybilsförsäljning

Vi har alla vittnat om att den Globala finanskrisen negativt påverkat många länders ekonomier. Inte minst har bilindustrin drabbats väldigt hårt och osäkerheten bland människor har ökat. I många länder har biltillverkningen sjunkit och orsakat betydande problem för världens bilproducenter. Krisen slog dessutom hårt åt de svenska biltillverkarna Volvo och Saab. Volvo Personbilar har en stark tradit

What do we really know about the determinants of public spending on education? A robustness check of three empirical models

A variety of theories concerning the determinants of public spending on education exist, but an encompassing one has yet to be formulated. Frequently examined determinants are regime type and globalization, but the empirical results for these variables are not consistent across studies. This paper contributes to the literature by anecdotally demonstrating that insufficient theory can lead to a lac

Marine Le Pen som partiledare för Front National : en förnyad diskurs?

In January 2011, Marine Le Pen was elected the new president of the French right populist political party Front National (“National Front”), a role she took over from her father, Jean-Marie Le Pen, who had been the president since the creation of the party in 1972. To deal with the somewhat dubious past of Front National, and in order to make it more commonly accepted in the political sphere, Mari
