We have characterized electroluminescent devices based on silicon rich oxide and/or silicon rich nitride. We have discussed the photoluminescence and structural characterization of the active layers and the electrical and ...
[eng] Neurodegenerative diseases represent a significant health challenge, as no cure is currently available. The unique anatomy of the blood-brain barrier, which limits drug delivery to the brain, as well as the lack of ...
[eng] The main challenge in modern medicine is to prevent diseases and, when disease strikes, to detect it and cure it efficiently, promptly and cost-effectively (understanding cost as economic burden, patient and relatives ...
In the late 1990's, when sophisticated personal computers and electronic devices with miniaturized sensors were being mass produced, the concept of ambient intelligence (AmI) emerged. An environment ...
[eng] The field of medicine and life sciences faces a significant challenge due to the overwhelming influx of information and a rapidly increasing volume of data. Addressing this data abundance necessitates the integration ...
[eng] Heat, moisture, gas, and momentum exchanges at the oceanic and atmospheric interface modulate, inter alia, the Earth’s heat and carbon budgets, global circulation, and dynamical modes. Sea surface winds are fundamental ...
[eng] The emergence of liquid biopsies has been useful for the diagnosis of physiological conditions, inflammatory processes, and especially represents a good alternative tool for non-invasive analysis of tumor-derived ...
[eng] The aim of this thesis has been two-fold. First, to develop new processing and analysis tools and strategies for extracting information from EELS data, and second, to apply the methods to different nanoparticle systems ...
Flow cells are on their way to become a key player for electrical energy storage (EES) thanks to their suitability as load-levelling devices thus contributing to the development of smart grid and to offset the intermittency ...
To ensure progress in the field of biomedicine and drug development, it is essential to keep improving the equipment needed to carry out most of the experiments. With better tools, scientists can be more efficient, increasing ...
[eng] The scope of this thesis is the advancement on the theoretical simulation and nanofabrication of photonic crystals based on a periodic array of silicon pillars. This research is intended to be part of the preliminary ...
This thesis is devoted to the development of new annealing strategies via Rapid Thermal Processing (RTP) for Earth-abundant Cu2ZnSn(Sx,Se1-x) (CZTSSe) kesterite solar cells, which show a clear consensus amongst the scientific ...
In vitro engineered three-dimensional tissue models are attracting an increasing interest due to their potential applications in preclinical assays. On the one hand, they are an alternative to the high costs, ethical issues ...
[eng] This thesis focuses on conducting a CP measurement of the rare radiative b-baryon decay Lambda b0 -> pkgamma using proton-proton collisions collected by the LHCb experiment during both the entire Run I and Run II ...
[eng] This thesis investigates collective cell migration in epithelial tissues, under the framework of active soft matter physics. We model epithelial tissues as active polar fluids, since their components, the cells, have ...
[eng] This thesis delves into the study of catalytic Janus particles (AP) that convert chemical energy into mechanical motion, resulting in energy dissipation. Understanding this dissipation is challenging due to the ...
[eng] This thesis investigates primordial black holes and their observational consequences. In the first part, we examine the behavior of domain walls produced during inflation, and their subsequent collapse, leading to ...
[eng] This thesis will present a body of articles on the research topic of soft matter. Soft matter is a research subfield of condensed matter, where the energy required for deforming the media is comparable to that of ...
Codification of genetic information; regulation of gene expression; transport of nutrients inside cells; immune protection against infectious agents; transduction of external signals... These are some of the crucial processes ...
[eng] In this PhD thesis, we leverage the well established foundations of complex systems physics and integrate insights from medicine and materials engineering to advance our understanding of neuroscience. Our primary ...
