- IMPORTANCE Prevention of iron deficiency in infancy may promote neurodevelopment. Delayuci umbilical cord clamping (CC) prevents iron deficiency at 4 to 6 months of age, but long-term effects after 12 months of age have not been reported. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of delayed CC compared with early CC on neurodevelopment at 4 years of age. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Follow-up of a randomized clinical trial conducted from April 16, 2008, through May 21, 2010, at a Swedish county hospital. Children who were included in the original study (n = 382) as full-term infants born after a low-risk pregnancy were invited to return for follow-up at 4 years of age. Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence (WPPSI-111) and Movement Assessment Battery for Children (Movement ABC) scores (collected between April 18, 2012, and July 5, 2013) were assessed by a blinded psychologist. Between April 11, 2012, and August 13, 2013, parents recorded their child's development using the Ages and Stages Questionnaire, Third Edition (ASQ) and behavior using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. All data were analyzed by intention to treat. INTERVENTIONS Randomization to delayed CC (>= 180 seconds after delivery) or early CC (<= 10 seconds after delivery). MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The main outcome was full-scale IQ as assessed by the were development as assessed by the scales from the WPPSI-III and Movement ABC, development as recorded using the ASQ, and behavior using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. RESULTS We assessed 263 children (68.8%). No differences were found in WPPSI-III scores between groups. Delayed CC improved the adjusted mean differences (AMDs) in the ASQ personal-social (AMD, 2.8; 95% Cl, 0.8-4.7) and fine-motor (AMD, 2.1; 95% Cl, 0.2-4.0) domains and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire prosocial subscale (AMD, 0.5; 95% Cl, >0.0-0.9). Fewer children in the delayed-CC group had results below the cutoff in the ASQ fine-motor domain (11.0% vs 3.7%; P =.02) and the Movement ABC bicycle-trail task (12.9% vs 3.8%; P =.02). Boys who received delayed CC had significantly higher AMDs in the WPPSI-III processing-speed quotient (AMD, 4.2; 95% Cl, 0.8-7.6; P =.02), Movement ABC bicycle-trail task (AMD, 0.8; 95% Cl, 0.1-1.5; P =.03), and fine-motor (AMD, 4.7; 95% Cl, 1.0-8.4; P =.01) and personal-social (AMD, 4.9; 95% Cl, 1.6-8.3; P =.004) domains of the ASQ. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Delayed CC compared with early CC improved scores in the fine-motor at 4 years of age, especially in boys, indicating that optimizing the time to CC may affect neurodevelopment in a low-risk population of children born in a high-income country.

- The proposed MAX IV facility is meant as a successor to the existing MAX-lab. The accelerator part will consist of three storage rings, two new ones operated at 3 and 1.5 GeV respectively and the existing 700 MeV MAX III ring. The two new rings have identical lattices and are placed on top of each other. Both these rings have a very small emittance, 0.86 and 0.4 nm rad respectively, and offer synchrotron radiation of very high mean brilliance. As an injector, a 3 GeV linear accelerator is planned. The design philosophy and the special technical solutions called for are presented in this paper.

- We report on growth and characterization of wurtzite InP-In1-xGaxAs core-shell nanowire heterostructures. A range of nanowire structures with different Ga concentration in the shell was characterized with transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. We found that the main part of the nanowires has a pure wurtzite crystal structure, with occasional stacking faults occurring only at the top and bottom. This allowed us to determine the structural properties of wurtzite In1-xGaxAs. The InP-In1-xGaxAs core-shell nanowires show a triangular and hexagonal facet structure of {1100} and {10 (10) over bar} planes. X-ray diffraction measurements showed that the core and the shell are pseudomorphic along the c-axis, and the strained axial lattice constant is closer to the relaxed In1-xGaxAs shell. Microphotoluminescence measurements of the nanowires show emission in the infrared regime, which makes them suitable for applications in optical communication.

- InP core-shell nanowire pn-junctions doped with Zn and Sn have been investigated in terms of growth morphology and shell carrier concentration. The carrier concentrations were evaluated using spatially resolved Hall effect measurements and show improved homogeneity compared to previous investigations, attributed to the use of Sn as the n-type dopant. Anisotropies in the growth rate of different facets are found for different doping levels that in turn affects the migration of Sn and In on the nanowire surface. A route for increasing the In migration length to obtain a more homogeneous shell thickness is presented.

Large Area Photodetectors at 1.3/1.55 μm Based on InP/InAsP NWs
- 2014
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Optical communication systems benefit a lot from APDs due to their increased photocurrent gain as compared to conventional photodetectors. An avalanche region in a high bandgap material is especially useful to avoid the tunneling leakage currents in smaller bandgap materials needed for absorption at 1.3/1.55 µm wavelengths. Self-assembled III-V semiconductor nanowires have a key advantage owing to the enhanced absorption due to optical resonance effects and the strain relaxation in NWs, thus facilitating monolithic integration of different heterostructures on cheaper substrates. Here, we present electrical and optical results from large ensembles of InP/InAsP NWs, axially grown on p+ InP substrates. The NW base consists of an InP p-n junction acting as the avalanche region followed by an InP/InAsP absorption region, and ending with a top InP n+-segment. The 130nm diameter NW arrays are contacted in a vertical geometry using SiO2 as the insulating layer and ITO as the top contact. The n-doping in the avalanche region is varied to study it’s influence on the avalanche mechanism. Also the bandgap in the absorption region is varied from pure InP to smaller bandgap InAsP by varying the As content. Clear interband signals from different crystal phases of InP/InAsP are observed in photocurrent spectroscopy. Moreover, the photocurrent spectra are consistent with spatially resolved photoluminescence signals. We also report on polarization and angle dependent photocurrent response of the NW array.

Large area photodetectors based on InP NWs with InAs/InAsP QWs
- 2014
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Focal plane arrays have a widespread use in infrared imaging, which often rely on cryogenic cooling to curtail the dark current level necessary for a reasonable signal-to-noise ratio. Quantum well (QW) infrared photodetectors are uniform over large areas, but suffer from a severe drawback related to the selection rules for intersubband absorption. An interesting alternative is self-assembled III-V nanowires offering a key advantage owing to the enhanced absorption by optical resonance effects and strain relaxation.We present electrical and optical results from large ensembles of n+-i-n+ InP NWs, axially grown on InP substrates with InAs/InAsP QWs embedded within the i-segment, designed for both interband and intersubband detection. The NWs are contacted in a vertical geometry using 50 nm SiO2 as the insulating layer and ITO as the top contact. We first investigate the crystal quality of the InAsP QWs grown in 180 nm diameter NWs, using PL, CL and TEM. To achieve more abrupt InAs/InAsP QWs, we grow 130 nm diameter NWs and deplete the In present in the Au catalysts. The effect of n-doping on the device performance is studied by fabricating two different NW geometries, with and without an n+-segment grown before the nominal i-segment in the NW. In addition, the position of the QWs within the i-segment is varied to further scrutinize effects related to doping and crystal structure. Finally, we report spectrally resolved photocurrent results from the QWs in the near-infrared region and discuss about the further developments needed for intersubband detection.

Memory for perceived and imagined pictures : an event-related potential study
- 2002

Ingår i: Neuropsychologia, vol. 40, no. 7. - : Elsevier. ; 40:7, s. 986-1002

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Event-related potentials (ERPs) and behavioural measures were used to investigate recognition memory and source-monitoring judgements about previously perceived and imagined pictures. At study, word labels of common objects were presented. Half of these were followed by a corresponding picture and the other half by an empty frame, signalling to the participants to mentally visualise an image. At test, participants in a source-monitoring task made a three-way discrimination between new words and words corresponding to previously perceived and imagined pictures. Participants in an old/new-recognition task indicated whether test words were previously presented or not. In both tasks, correctly identified old items elicited more positive-going ERPs than correctly judged new items. This widely distributed old/new effect was found to have an earlier onset and to be of a greater magnitude for imagined than for perceived items. Task (source versus item-memory) affected the old/new effects over prefrontal areas and the reaction times to remembered old items. The present findings are consistent with the view that a greater amount, or a different type, of information is necessary for accurate source-memory judgements than for correct recognition, and moreover, that different types of source-specifying information revive at different rates. In addition, the results add weight to the view that the late widespread ERP-old/new effect is sensitive to the quality or the amount of information retrieved from memory.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The possibility to engineer nanowire heterostructures with large bandgap variations is particularly interesting for technologically important broadband photodetector applications. Here we report on a combined study of design, fabrication, and optoelectronic properties of infrared photodetectors comprising four million n+–i–n+ InP nanowires periodically ordered in arrays. The nanowires were grown by metal–organic vapor phase epitaxy on InP substrates, with either a single or 20 InAsP quantum discs embedded in the i-segment. By Zn compensation of the residual n-dopants in the i-segment, the room-temperature dark current is strongly suppressed to a level of pA/NW at 1 V bias. The low dark current is manifested in the spectrally resolved photocurrent measurements, which reveal strong photocurrent contributions from the InAsP quantum discs at room temperature with a threshold wavelength of about 2.0 μm and a bias-tunable responsivity reaching 7 A/W@1.38 μm at 2 V bias. Two different processing schemes were implemented to study the effects of radial self-gating in the nanowires induced by the nanowire/SiOx/ITO wrap-gate geometry. Summarized, our results show that properly designed axial InP/InAsP nanowire heterostructures are promising candidates for broadband photodetectors. © 2017 American Chemical Society.

- Heteroepitaxial growth of InAs was investigated on sidewalls of InP nanowires (NWs) using metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy. InAs quantum wells (QWs) with smooth surface were formed on the InP NWs having perfect wurtzite phase structure. On the other hand, InAs quantum dots (QDs) were formed on wurtzite InP NWs purposely introduced with stacking-fault segments. Photoluminescence from single NWs attributed to both QWs and QDs was observed. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3646386]

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In order to push the development of nanowire-based solar cells further using optimized nanowire diameter and pitch, a doping evaluation of the nanowire geometry is necessary. We report on a doping evaluation of n-type InP nanowires with diameters optimized for light absorption, grown by the use of metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy in particle-assisted growth mode using tetraethyltin (TESn) as the dopant precursor. The charge carrier concentration was evaluated using four-probe resistivity measurements and spatially resolved Hall measurements. In order to reach the highest possible nanowire doping level, we set the TESn molar fraction at a high constant value throughout growth and varied the trimethylindium (TMIn) molar fraction for different runs. Analysis shows that the charge carrier concentration in nanowires grown with the highest TMIn molar fraction (not leading to kinking nanowires) results in a low carrier concentration of approximately 10(16) cm(-3). By decreasing the molar fraction of TMIn, effectively increasing the IV/III ratio, the carrier concentration increases up to a level of about 10(19) cm(-3), where it seems to saturate. Axial carrier concentration gradients along the nanowires are found, which can be correlated to a combination of changes in the nanowire growth rate, measured in situ by optical reflectometry, and polytypism of the nanowires observed in transmission electron microscopy.

- We have used micro-photo- and cathodo-luminescence at low temperatures to study the effects of sulphur doping in InP and radial InP/InAs/InP structured nanowires. Samples with pure wurtzite crystal structure, with modulated wurtzite/zincblende crystal structure and with different radial InAs growth times were investigated. We observed a doping concentration gradient along the nanowires, the location of segments of different crystal structure and thickness fluctuations on the monolayer scale of the InAs layer.

- Correlated micro-photoluminescence (μPL) and cathodoluminescence (CL) measurements are reported for single core-shell InP-InAs wurtzite nanowires grown using metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy. Samples covering a radial InAs shell thickness of 1-12 ML were investigated. The effective masses for the wurtzite material were determined from the transition energy dependence of the InAs shell thickness, using a model based on linear deformation potential theory. InP cores with segments of mixed zincblende and wurtzite, on which quantum dots nucleated selectively, were also investigated. Narrow peaks were observed by μPL and the spatial origin of the emission was identified with CL imaging.

Study of carrier concentration in single InP nanowires by luminescence and Hall measurements
- 2015

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The free electron carrier concentrations in single InP core-shell nanowires are determined by micro-photoluminescence, cathodoluminescence (CL) and Hall effect measurements. The results from luminescence measurements were obtained by solving the Fermi-Dirac integral, as well as by analyzing the peak full width at half maximum (FWHM). Furthermore, the platform used for Hall effect measurements, combined with spot mode CL spectroscopy, is used to determine the carrier concentrations at specific positions along single nanowires. The results obtained via luminescence measurements provide an accurate and rapid feedback technique for the epitaxial development of doping incorporation in nanowires. The technique has been employed on several series of samples in which growth parameters, such as V/III-ratio, temperature and dopant flows, were investigated in an optimization procedure. The correlation between the Hall effect and luminescence measurements for extracting the carrier concentration of different samples were in excellent agreement.

- Daily school physical activity (PA) improves musculoskeletal traits. This study evaluates whether the benefits remain 4 years after the intervention. We followed 45 boys and 36 girls who had had 40 min PA/school day during the nine compulsory school years and 21 boys and 22 girls who had had 60 min PA/school week (reference), with measurements at baseline and 4 years after the program terminated. Bone mineral content (BMC; g) and bone mineral density (BMD; g/cm2) were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and knee flexion peak torque relative to total body weight (PTflexTBW) at a speed of 180 degrees/second with a computerized dynamometer. Group differences are presented as mean differences (adjusted for sex and duration of follow-up period) with 95% confidence intervals. The total gain bone mass [mean difference in spine BMC +32.0 g (14.6, 49.4) and in arms BMD of +0.06 g/cm2 (0.02, 0.09)] and gain in muscle strength [mean difference in PTflex180TBW +12.1 (2.0, 22.2)] were greater in the intervention than in the control group. There are still 4 years after the intervention indications of benefits in both bone mass and muscle strength gain. Daily school PA may counteract low bone mass and inferior muscle strength in adult life. ClinicalTrials.gov.NCT000633828 retrospectively registered 2008-11-03

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- A novel 2D particle tracking method, that uses 1) iteration, 2) fast quadratic sub-pixel estimation (with only 28 multiplications per movement), and 3) a previous kernel, has been evaluated and compared with a full-search block-matching method. The comparison with high-frequency ultrasound data (40 MHz) was conducted in silico and on phantoms, which comprised lateral, diagonal, and ellipsoidal movement patterns with speeds of 0–15 mm/s. The mean tracking error was reduced by 68% in silico and 71% for the phantom measurements. When only sub-pixel estimation was used, the decrease in the tracking error was 61% in silico and 57% for the phantom measurements. As well as decreasing the tracking error, the new method only used 70% of the computational time needed by the full-search block-matching method. With a fast method having good tracking ability for high-frequency ultrasound data, we now have a tool to better investigate tissue movements and its dynamic functionality.
