Health and social situation of illicit drug users and the aid they receive from the respective social and healthcare institutions in the Czech Republic This thesis is composed of two main parts: theoretical and practical. Theoretical part contains chiefly categorization of illicit drugs, where we learn how they are divided according to their origin, effects, and their chemical composition, as well as their seriousness for the society. The thesis also maps the development of the illicit drug scene before and after 1989 and also discusses the importance of the year 1994{---}considered a breakthrough{---}since even before the convertibility of the Czech currency, it witnesses a massive invasion of high-quality and cheap heroine import. Furthermore, the harmful effects of drug abuse and their categorization is presented. Health hazards are correlated with data covering the HIV and viral hepatitis diffusion in the Czech Republic. This part also contains a list and description of institutions dealing with illicit drug abuse and issues connected with it. An analysis of social, health, and economic situation of illicit drug users, those filed in a L/K center. In conclusion, the thesis deals with the illicit drug use policy in the Czech Republic, where prevention, repression, prohibition and regulations are discussed, within the framework of sample of other national drug policies. The reader will find here the description of individual illicit drugs as well. The thesis aims to map the activities of K-centers, and the way their work{---}in its result, the aid to illicit drug users{---}is being made harder by the low-threshold institutions. Low-threshold institutions were chosen to represent the group of relevant institutions since they are attended by the illicit drug users most often, as well as being the first institution of this kind the users come to. The author also explored what suggestions of improvement the centers present. Three hypotheses were set: 1. The offer of services is broad in K-centers 2. Low-threshold institutions lack resources 3. Low-threshold institution representatives hold serious reservations to the illicit drug use policy in the Czech Republic The data were collected in questionnaires and secondary analysis of data from annual reports of K-centers. The questionnaires were filled in by low-threshold centers representatives. The data confirmed the set hypotheses. In the discussion, the author debates the results of his research and discusses expert literature, while explaining difficulties that he encountered composing this thesis. The conclusion deals with the suggestions for improvement, particularly of the illicit drug use policy and sums up the thesis.

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo a modelagem de células solares MOS operando em regime de inversão controlado por centros positivamente carregados na interface SiNxOy/Si. Este tipo de célula solar foi recentemente fabricada pela primeira vez no âmbito dos trabalhos desenvolvidos no grupo de Superfícies, Interfaces e Deposição Eletroquímica (GSIDE) do LSI/PSI/EPUSP utilizando dielétricos de porta ultra-finos (~2nm). A receita de crescimento de dielétrico ultra-fino desenvolvida foi no sentido de assegurar reprodutibilidade e uniformidade da espessura do dielétrico ao longo de áreas extensas de alguns cm2. Baseado nas curvas experimentais CxVg, GxVg e IxVg das células solares fabricadas, foi mostrado para as células fabricadas em substrato tipo P que existem os centros K predominantemente preenchidos com cargas positivas em todos os regimes de operação (acumulação, depleção e inversão). A densidade de cargas positivas (Qiq) na interface SiNxOy/Si além de ter resultado positivo, apresentou um comportamento linear com o potencial de superfície (ys) ou com a tensão de porta Vg de acordo com os resultados obtidos através de um simulador numérico desenvolvido para esta aplicação específica. Tal comportamento consistiu no acomodamento das cargas positivas na interface de forma que uma região de depleção profunda (Wd) é formada sem a presença da camada de inversão na condição sem iluminação. Para as células MOS submetidas a diferentes níveis de iluminação, tanto para os dielétricos crescidos a 850oC como também para aqueles que foram crescidos a 700oC, foi constatado que os centros K na interface funcionam como uma região de armazenamento de cargas positivas a medida em que os elétrons tunelam em direção à porta metálica da estrutura MOS. Como resultado, este tipo de comportamento significa uma nova forma de implementar o efeito fotovoltáico. / The goal of the present work was the modeling of MOS solar cells operating in an inversion regime controlled by positively charged centers at the SiNxOy interface. This type of solar cell was recently manufactured for the first time in the activities developed in the group of Surfaces, Interfaces and Electrochemical Deposition (GSIDE) from LSI/PSI/EPUSP using ultra-thin gate dielectrics (~2nm). The recipe for the growth of ultra-thin dielectrics was developed to ensure reproducibility and uniformity of the dielectrics thickness over large areas of few square centimeters. Based on the experimental curves CxVg, GxVg e IxVg of the manufactured MOS solar cells, it was shown for cells manufactured in P-type substrate that there are K centers dominantly filled with positive charges in all operating regimes (accumulation, depletion and inversion). The positive charge density (Qiq) at the SiNxOy/Si interface, in addition to having a positive charge, presented a linear behaviour with the surface potential (ys) or with the gate voltage (Vg) according to the results obtained from a numerical simulator developed for this application. Such behavior consisted of accommodating the positive charges at the SiNxOy/Si interface so that a deep depletion region (Wd) is formed without the presence of the inversion layer in the condition without illumination. For MOS cells subjected to different levels of illumination, both for dielectrics grown at 850oC as well as for those grown at 700oC, it was found that the K centers at the SiNxOy/Si interface work as a region of positive charge storage as the electrons tunnel from the interface towards the metal gate of the MOS cells. As a result, this type of behaviour means a new way of implementing the photovoltaic effect.
