Organic materials for molecular quantum bits
Tuček, Marek ; Bábor, Petr (referee) ; Čechal, Jan (advisor)
In this thesis we briefly outline the properties and utilization of metal phthalocyanines, the procedure of iron phthalocyanine thin film deposition on Si(100), the supplementary post-deposition analysis by XPS and the equipment used to measure X-ray reflectivity. Further we describe the theoretical description of physical background of X-ray diffraction on a crystal, the measurement of X-ray reflectivity and evaluation of acquired data, focusing on determination of the thin film thickness, identification of its crystal structure and lattice parameters. It has been found out that iron phthalocyanine thin films deposited on a substrate at room temperature grow as an alpha-phase in the shape of needles perpendicular to substrate surface, so the film thickness, due to high rougness of the film, can be only estimated with the help of Scherrer equation for long depositions. In the case of shorter depositions (and thus lower roughness) the Kiessig fringes method can be used. By the post-deposition annealing we were not able to induce a phase transition; at required temperatures all the material on the substrate evaporated. By a deposition on a substrate heated to 160°C we acquired considerably rough film with unclear crystalline phase.

Advantages and disadvantages of therapy means by protons and carbon ions
JEŽEK, Jan
This bachelor thesis deals with modern radiotherapy method, the so-called hadron therapy. The paper describes its principal characteristics, evaluates its advantages and disadvantages and gives reasons for its application in treating oncological diseases. At the same time this method is compared with the most frequently used treatment processes (megavoltage radiotherapy). The paper gives an overview of the most important hadron centers in the whole world, gives information on their activities and speculates about possibilities of building a similar center in the Czech Republic. The research based on specialized literature is completed by a questionnaire survey that polls the level of awareness in the professional public on the issue dealt with in this paper.
