The geology of the Dragsmark granites, Bohuslan, south west Sweden with emphasis on the nature and origin of their alkali feldspar megacrysts
Thesis
(1984). The geology of the Dragsmark granites, Bohuslan, south west Sweden with emphasis on the nature and origin of their alkali feldspar megacrysts

The Dragsmark granites comprise a number of sub-concordant sheets within the Stora Le -Marstrand gneiss belt of south-west Sweden. Field evidence, fluid inclusion studies and geochemical restite-melt modelling indicate that they were intruded as wet...

Laser Writing of the Electronic Activity of Nitrogen and Hydrogen Atoms in Gallium Arsenide
Thesis
(2011). Laser Writing of the Electronic Activity of Nitrogen and Hydrogen Atoms in Gallium Arsenide

In this study, we use a focussed laser beam to control the electronic activity of N- and H-atoms in a dilute nitride Ga(AsN)/GaAs quantum well (QW). We find that the laser can be used to dissociate N-H complexes in hydrogenated Ga(AsN) thus enabling...
