År 1925 patenterade den österrike-ungerska fysikern, Julius Edgar Lilenfeld, den första fälteffektstransistorn. Han beskrev i detalj komponentens design, funktioner och användningsområden. Eftersom den dåvarande teknologin var otillräcklig, blev någon tillverkning dock aldrig av. MOSFET:en uppfannas först år 1959, utav Dawon Kahnng och Martin Atalla från Bells Labs. Den typiskt kiselbaserade kompoIn this thesis were vertical NWFETs (nanowire field-effect transistors) fabricated, and their electrical properties characterised. The main goal was to minimize the parasitic capacitances that limited the high frequency performance. The nanowires consisted of InAs/InGaAs heterojunctions, and were grown on top of Si via a buffer layer. The gate contained a finger pattern that was defined via EBL (e

CONNECT is an interactive meeting point were people, as strangers, lovers or friends have the chance to interact with each other. The project has strong connections to philosophical ideas, and interfaces with my personal reflections and the thoughts of an external audience. The aim of the project is to expand people’s minds and ability to be present and thankful. It questions social structures in

Bostäder består antingen av hela fastigheter eller av delar av fastigheter. Fastigheter och deras priser är intressanta i förhållande till andra varor då de är knutna till en precis lokalisering. Priset på en fastighet säger mycket om värdet av den lokalisering som fastigheten har. För en stad är prisutvecklingen en slags temperaturmätare och speglar en förändring i attraktivitet för ett visst lägReal estate and its prices are interesting in relation to other goods due to the strong linkage to a precise location. The price of a property says a lot about the value of its location. For a city, price development is a strong indicator and reflects a change in attractiveness for a particular location. The purpose of this Master Thesis is to explain the deviation in price development on dwellin

Denna studie utreder omfattningen på den inverkan ekonomiska muskler inom elitklubbar i den svenska fotbollen har på sportsliga resultat. Med utgångspunkt från det stora utrymme ekonomin idag har inom elitfotbollsklubbar utarbetas en bivariat och en multivariat regression, vilka har till syfte att påvisa skillnader mellan lag hemmahörande i olika kommuner med skilda förutsättningar. Regressionen hThis study investigates to what extent the economic muscles within professional Swedish football clubs affect the sports performance. Using the fact that economy today takes a great space of the elite football operation as starting point, a bivariate and multivariate regression including different Dummy-variables is developed. The purpose is to demonstrate differences among various municipalities

Det cirkulära Skåne – Ett regionalt perspektiv på hinder och möjligheter för att främja cirkulär företagsamhet En av de största utmaningarna för att minska vår negativa klimatpåverkan är att skapa hållbar konsumtion. Hade alla konsumerat på samma sätt som vi gör i Sverige skulle fler än fyra jordklot behövas – och det är tydligt att vår konsumtion innebär ett ohållbart förbrukande av jordens resuOver the past decade, the transition to a circular economy has gained attention as a necessary step towards sustainable development. In contrast to the linear economy that is rooted in a ‘take-make-dispose’ mentality, the circular economy aims to decouple economic growth from unsustainable use of non-renewable resources by closing the material loops in the economy. While the EU recognizes that na

The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of family composition and work-related characteristics on retirement and to identify to what extent these factors explain the differences in retirement rates between men and women. This study is conducted under a life-course perspective framework and uses a logistic regression and a Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition analysis as methodological ap

In recent memory the question of climate change has been at the forefront of a great deal of debates at the international level and with the Paris Agreement and the continuation of COP-meetings in the future, the preoccupation with climate change is sure to continue and to involve many different actors. The question of how a state such as Denmark, traditionally known as a state dedicated to fighti

Möjligheterna för att kränka och förtala andra har ökat väsentligt i och med internets utveckling under 2000-talet. Idag kan ett uttalande eller en integritetskränkande bild spridas över hela världen på bara några sekunder och möjligheterna att ”ta bort” sådana uttalanden har därigenom förändrats. Denna uppsats syfte är att granska det svenska straffrättsliga skyddet mot näthat och undersöka omThe evolvement of the communications technology during the 21st century has created novel ways in which people can harm others. Today a statement or an intimate visual recording can be spread globally in just a few seconds and the possibility to remove such information has thus changed. The objective of this paper is to review the Swedish criminal protection against cyber harassment and exami

Sweden has no legislated regulation for lobbying, but there is a huge on going discussion about the benefits and disadvantages with lobbying related to democratic values. This essay is studying parliamentary bills from 2000-2015, which has been raised in the question and the essay is embracing a democratic view where Robert Dahl’s theory about democracy is used as a foundation to the ideal types o

The genetics underlying bird migration have been the subject of several studies. Two willow warbler subspecies (Phylloscopus trochilus trochilus and Phylloscopus trochilus acredula) follow different routes during their winter migration to Africa. Their breeding territories overlap in a contact area or “migratory divide” across central Scandinavia and to the east of the Baltic sea. Previous genome-

Kampen mellan dyngbaggens solkompass och vindkompassen Att kunna orientera utifrån sin omgivning är viktigt för många djur över hela djurriket, inte minst för insekter. Hos dyngbaggar, vars föda är dynga, utförs en typ av orientering för att undvika konkurrens om mat; bibehållande av en rak kurs. När en dyngbagge har hittat en färsk dynghög formar den en boll av avföringen och rullar sedan iväg mThe ability to orient requires reliable cue information, and the primary cue used in straight-line orientation by the diurnal dung beetle Kheper lamarcki is the sun. It is previously known that the orientation precision of the dung beetle decreases at high solar elevations compared to lower elevations. In this study, the reliability of the sun compass was investigated in detail by testing the orie

This thesis investigates the impact of the OECD’s Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) Action Plan on corporate tax revenue in Latin America. To evaluate the policy implementation, we construct the Tax Avoidance Policy Score (TAPS), a composite index measuring anti-avoidance efforts aligned with BEPS minimum standards from 2000 to 2021. Using a staggered difference-in-differences approach and m

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and natural hazards and associated disasters both pose significant global threats, with potential for exacerbating intersections. Despite AMR’s growing international priority, the nexus of AMR and hazards/disasters remains underexplored. This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the nexus to inform future perspectives and highlight further investigation

Överskuldsättning är ett växande samhällsproblem men kopplingen till suicidförsök är inte välbeforskad. Föreliggande tvärsnittsstudie syftade till att undersöka psykologiska faktorer som är relaterade till suicidförsök hos överskuldsatta individer i Sverige. Deltagarna bestod av 641 överskuldsatta individer, inklusionskriterierna var att deltagarna skulle vara skuldsatta och varit föremål för inkaOver-indebtedness is a growing societal issue, however, the connection to suicidal behaviour is not well-researched. This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate psychological factors that are related to suicide attempts among 641 over-indebted individuals in Sweden. Inclusion criteria were being indebted and having been subject to debt collection measures and/or seizure orders by the Swedish E

In this qualitative and poststructuralist policy analysis, the Swedish Crime policy is examined as it is expressed through three political documents from three different parties during the post-election period of October 2022-March 2024. Using Laclau and Mouffe’s discourse theory, with its Lacanian influence on the subject, this paper investigates the political language used in the policy area dur

Bakgrund: Kvinnor som utsätts för våld i nära relation är ett globalt hälsoproblem. Våldet har ofta långvariga hälsokonsekvenser och påverkar även kvinnornas vardag negativt. I dagsläget saknas arbetsterapi samt arbetsterapeutisk forskning för denna målgrupp och det är idag oklart hur våldet påverkar aktiviteter i vardagen för våldsutsatta kvinnor. Syfte: Med stöd av Model of Human Occupation sammBackground: Women subjected to intimate partner violence face a global health issue. The violence often has long-term health consequences and negatively affects women's daily lives. Currently, there is a lack of occupational therapy and research in this field for this target group, and it is unclear how the violence impacts daily activities for these women. Purpose: Supported by the Model of H
