This thesis presents a study of lasing properties and optical amplification in semiconducting conjugated polymers and dendrimers. Configured as surface-emitting distributed feedback lasers, the effect of incorporating wavelength-scale microstructure on the output of the devices …
The aim of this thesis was to develop and test novel food-grade nanodispersions, such as nanoemulsions and solid lipid nanoparticles, for the encapsulation, protection and delivery of bioactive lipophilic food components. Initially, the impact of system composition and homogeniz…
