1	Low-energy electron diffraction effects at complex interfaces Oh, Doogie 06 April 2009 (has links) Low-energy electron scattering was used as a tool to study electron-stimulated processes at complex interfaces. The electron diffraction in each complex interface is theoretically treated by a multiple scattering formalism for quantitative analysis. Mathematical descriptions of electron-stimulated processes and a multiple scattering expansion extended from the single-scattering case are presented. This analysis method was applied in three research topics: These are 1) electron-stimulated desorption of Cl+ from Si surfaces, 2) characterization of epitaxial graphene on Si-terminated SiC(0001), and 3) low-energy electron induced DNA damage. Zone-specific desorption of Cl+ from Si(111)- 7X7:Cl surfaces was demonstrated. Graphene epitaxially grown on SiC(0001) surfaces was analyzed using Auger electron diffraction and Raman scattering spectroscopy. Finally, the roles of interfacial water and dissociative electron attachment resonances in low-energy electron-induced DNA damage were revealed. Electron scattering calculations using the "path approach" were applied in all of the above mentioned studies. The combination of theory and experiment has lead to insight regarding electron scattering with complex targets. ESD AED DEA DESD Green function Low energy electron diffraction
2	Technical and Vocational Education and Training in Support of Strategic Sustainable Development Gu, Chen Chen, Gomes, Telma, Brizuela, Victor Samuel January 2011 (has links) This thesis looks at how Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) be carried out to help society move towards sustainability. It starts by introducing the reader into the essential concepts about Strategic Sustainable Development (SSD), Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), TVET, and the barriers to integrating ESD into TVET. It also provides information about the case study conducted in a TVET organization in Ireland which is integrating ESD into TVET. The thesis presents the key aspects that TVET organization need to have in order to successfully support SSD and it also provides a definition of success which is developing a workforce skilled for sustainability where sustainability is defined by the four sustainability principles. After presenting the key aspects, it looks at the strengths and weaknesses, in the lens of the key aspects, of the case study and three other TVET organizations. It later provides with recommendations based on the challenges found integrating ESD into TVET and the presented key aspects in order for TVET organizations to reach the vision of success. / <p>Telma Gomes - phone: 0736280415 - tegomes@uol.com.br Victor Samuel Brizuela - samworks@gmail.com Chen Chen Gu -guchenchen880309@163.com,</p> education for sustainability ESD DESD TVET VET vocational education TVET organizations TVET for sustainability green skills sustainability skills green jobs green works strategic sustainable development Social Sciences Interdisciplinary Övrig annan samhällsvetenskap Pedagogy Pedagogik
