  1. 1. Multifunctional ice and snow repellent coatings for photovoltaic modules

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Solcellsteknik

    Författare :Gunnar Sandkvist; [2023]
    Nyckelord :sol-gel; superhydrophobic; dip-coating; anti-reflective; silica;

    Sammanfattning : Implementation of solar power by photovoltaic modules in cold climates, such as northern Sweden, implies several challenges. Ice and snow coverage not only leads to reduction in energy production due to shading, but it also puts equipment at risk from additional weight. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Investigating Yttrium Ruthenate Pyrochlore as an Anodic Electrocatalyst in Proton Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Författare :Kneev Sharma; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : As the energy transition progresses, the demand for green storage solutions is ever-increasing. Hydrogen storage is receiving increased interest and support due to its promising sustainability and flexibility. Proton-exchange, or polymer electrolyte, membrane (PEM) electrolyzers are a key technology supporting hydrogen storage systems. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Chromia-Alumina Thin Films from Alkoxide Precursors : From Precursor Synthesis to Deposition and Characterisation

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Oorganisk kemi

    Författare :Elina Elvelo; [2023]
    Nyckelord :alkoxide; synthesis; thin film; coating; alumina; chromia; spinodal decomposition;

    Sammanfattning : A hetero-bimetallic alkoxide CrAl3(OiPr)12 was synthesised through metathesis of achromium(III)chloride THF complex (CrCl3 . 3 THF) and 3 KAl(OiPr)4.It was used as a single sourceprecursor to make oxide powders and films with 1:3 chromium/aluminium compositionthrough sol-gel synthesis.

  5. 4. A study of optical and structural properties of spin-coated V2O3 thin films on sapphire substrates

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Författare :Jennifer Silander; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Optical properties; transmittance; FTIR spectrometry; scanning electron microscopy; x-ray diffraction; metal-insulator transition; crystalline material; sol-gel; spin-coating; vanadium oxide; infrared light;

    Sammanfattning : Many transition metal oxides exhibit a Metal-Insulator Transition (MIT). This is an interesting phenomenon where the material undergoes a structural phase transition, and the electronic charge is redistributed in the crystal lattice. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Investigation of Methods to Improve PZT Sol-Gel Deposition Process for Energy Harvesting Applications

    M1-uppsats, KTH/Hälsoinformatik och logistik

    Författare :Mikael Granberg; [2022]
    Nyckelord :PZT; sol-gel; self-polarization; seed layer; titanium oxidation; PZT; sol-gel; självpolarisering; seedlager; titanoxidering;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this work was to investigate ways to modify Silex sol-gel deposition of PZT (PbZrxTi(1-x)O3, Lead Zirconate Titanate) in order to improve its properties for energy harvesting applications. A number of methods to improve the figure of merit for energy harvesting (FOM= e312/ε), cause self-polarization, increase lifetime, reduce cost, increase throughput or simplify processing were tested.
