The project aims to optimize the design and fabrication of InGaAs quantum-well field-effect transistor (QW-FET) by investigating transfer and output characteristics of the QW-FET. This work found a lower source/drain contact resistance solution starting with fabricating micrometer-level gate length transistors. It is a multiple-layer design, n-type InGaAs and n-type InP over channel. The stack of

The aim of this paper was to study the relatedness of stress and emotional labor in the daily work of the school social worker in the 10th-13th year of school (svenska gymnasium) in Sweden. The aim also included exploring experiences of the impact of the relationships with coworkers within the context of experienced work related stress. The chosen method for this study was a qualitative approach w
The purpose of the study has been to seek an in-depth understanding of how stress manifests itself in the work situation for social workers in child welfare services. Through a qualitative method and interviews conducted on 4 social workers, the empirical material has been collected. The analysis has then been made based on which stress factors and strategies that can be interpreted. The results f
Vi lever idag i ett allt mer digitaliserat samhälle. Många av de aktiviteter vi gör i vår vardag har genomgått omvälvande förändringar och flertalet grundläggande och nödvändiga tjänster är idag tillgängliga via datorer och smartmobiler. Denna digitala utveckling driver på en social acceleration som förändrar det offentliga rummet. Samtidigt som dagens accelerationssamhälle kräver att vi medborgar
The thesis explores the growing discourse of Big Data and argues that political actors like the European Union are purposefully constructing the meaning of such an issue and promoting certain strategies. The study seeks to expand the spectrum of Strategic Communication by examining a supranational political institution and to add valuable insights to the knowledge of the critical stream of Data st
Background: Starch is a well-studied material, produced by plants in granules to store energy. Starch finds a lot of applications in day-to-day life, in the food and pharmaceutical industry. This project was focusing on the utilization of starch retrogradation and the ability to form aqueous two-phase systems to prepare microspheres from the starch of different botanical sources and characterize t
Within the field of border studies, a common theoretical assumption is that national borders and national sentiments are interconnected. Some even argue that national boundaries are a precondition of national sentiments (Anderson & O'Dowd, 1999; Paasi, 1998 (b)). If one instead looks toward cross-border regions, an equally accepted theory is that national borders create regional asymmetrie
Motivated by the need for transformative change and more holistic conceptions of wellbeing, this thesis aims to explore the transformative potential of the Buen Vivir. As a synthesis of indigenous and modern principles, it was integrated in the Ecuadorian constitution. In order to evaluate the socio-political project of the Buen Vivir in the realm of a Real Utopia, I will investigate the transform
Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka vissa komponenter inom bostadsområden och hur dessa påverkar invånarnas nivå av anknytning till området de bor i. Hur individer uppfattar byggnadsestetik, grönområden och sociabilitet i sitt bostadsområde undersöktes genom användningen av en etablerad enkät, Perceived Residential Environment Quality-enkäten. Enkäten kompletterades med ett antal frågor rörandThis thesis aims to investigate certain components of neighborhoods and how they impact the residents’ level of attachment to the area in which they live. How individuals perceive building aesthetics, green areas and sociability in their neighborhood was examined using an established survey, namely the Perceived Residential Environment Quality survey. An additional set of questions covering neighb
Aim: This study aims to understand how digitisation affects the interaction between participants och courseleaders in COPE- the Community Parent Education Program. Inclusion: Councellors/ courseleaders and parents, who has lead or participated in a digitised version of COPE in a child psychiatry ward in southern Sweden. Method: Triangulation; interviews, survey and a systematic observation. Res
This bachelor thesis explores the perceptions that exist – and how these are created – among six professionals who work with violence in relationships between young people. To understand how the perceptions are created, the study uses Charles Tilly’s (2003) theory of how social categories is created and defined. The study also sheds light on how these perceptions can be understood from a feminist
The growing importance of achieving high productivity in the manufacturing industry leads to the necessity for applying high machining parameters and cutting speeds. However, the presence of self-excited vibrations of the tool shaft and workpiece under these conditions would result in undesirable surface roughness and surface integrity of the product. Thus, it is vital to study the damping mechani
Biståndshandläggare inom äldreomsorgen möter ibland äldre personer som lider av en demenssjukdom. Lagstiftningar och riktlinjer för hur arbetet med demenssjuka ska bedrivas är vaga och delvis motstridiga. Å ena sidan beskrivs vikten av självbestämmande i lagstiftningen och å andra sidan har biståndshandläggare ett ansvar att se till att ingen äldre kommer till skada eller självförsummar sig. Syfte
Although transnational corporations (hereinafter TNCs) often far outmatch States in terms of resources and influence over the direction of the world economy, they are generally unaccounted for when operating outside the territories in which they are incorporated (hereinafter ‘home States’). This thesis will look specifically at those TNCs that rely on natural resource extraction as their main sour
Polymers have existed in the manufacturing scenario for a long time now. However, the surprising part is that the data for metal cutting is still being incorporated for machining of polymers. Polymers are often machined using the tools on the data available for soft materials like aluminum. There is little research done in the domain of machinability of polymers to find out the best cutting combin
The aim of this study was to analyze how media presents individuals who commit crimes, where we analyzed if the presentation of the criminal differs, depending on the sex of the perpetrator. The used theories to investigate our questions was framing theory and Judith Butlers gender theory. By using qualitative content analysis, our material from different newspapers could be analyzed and coded. Th
