Structural and physical properties of ReN i03 (Re=Sm, N d) nanostructured films prepared by Pulsed Laser Deposition
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)
Very few systems allow the study of the relationship between structural changes and physical properties in such a clear way as rare earth nickelate ReNi03 perovskites (Re (rare earth) = Pr, Nd, Sm and Gd). Synthesized for ...
Fabrication and characterization of a solar cell using an aluminium p-doped layer in the hot-wire chemical vapour deposition process
(2010)
When the amorphous silicon (a-Si) dangling bonds are bonded to hydrogen the concentration of the dangling bond is decreased. The resulting film is called hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H). The reduction in the dangling ...

Towards stimuli-responsive functional nanocomposites: smart tunable plasmonic nanostructures Au-VO2
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)
The fascinating optical properties of metallic nanostructures, dominated by collective oscillations of free electrons known as plasmons, open new opportunities for the development of devices fabrication based on noble metal ...
Structure property relationship and thermal stability of organic photovoltaic cells
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)
In this thesis, regioregularpoly( 3-hexylthiophene) (rr-P3HT) polymer was used as a light absorption and electron donating material, while the C60 fullerene and its derivative [6,6]-phenyl C61-butyric acid methyl ester ...
Radiometric characterisation of vineyard soils, Western Cape, South Africa
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)
This study is aimed at investigating the feasibility of using the radiometric technique as an alternative to traditional methods for determining soil physico-chemical parameters which are important for terroir characterization. ...
