Briefing No 7. The costs and gains of homebuying
(University of St Andrews, 2015-05-28) - ReportDrawing on 80 interviews with owner-occupiers and on national data on house prices and mortgages, I examine the way in which homes’ meanings are negotiated through the subjective calculation of the financial costs and gains ... -
Briefing No 8. The case for property investment
(University of St Andrews, 2016-03-31) - ReportThe private rental sector (PRS) has seen a steady increase since 2000. This reflects complex societal changes which are taking place across the UK and beyond, not least increased demand from students, mobile professionals, ... -
Bright single photon source based on self-aligned quantum dot-cavity systems
(2014-04-07) - Journal articleWe report on a quasi-planar quantum-dot-based single-photon source that shows an unprecedented high extraction efficiency of 42% without complex photonic resonator geometries or post-growth nanofabrication. This very high ... -
Bringing computational science to the public
(2016-03-02) - Journal articleBackground The increasing use of computers in science allows for the scientific analyses of large datasets at an increasing pace. We provided examples and interactive demonstrations at Dundee Science Centre as part of the ... -
British devotional literature and the rise of German Pietism: an investigation
(University of St Andrews, 1984) - ThesisWas British devotional literature a major factor in the rise of German Pietism? Beginning in the very first decade of the seventeenth century, eighteen books by the Puritan William Perkins were put into German for the ... -
British foreign policy towards Syria : its importance, its distinctiveness and its relations to the policy of other actors in the region
(University of St Andrews, 2016) - ThesisThis thesis explores the dynamics involved in shaping the Anglo-Syrian relationship. It argues that to understand UK relations towards Syria over the past century, they have to be viewed in the broader context of British ... -

Broadband indistinguishability from bright parametric downconversion in a semiconductor waveguide
(2015-10-08) - Journal articleParametric downconversion (PDC) in semiconductor Bragg-reflection waveguides (BRW) is routinely exploited for photon-pair generation in the telecommunication range. Contrary to many conventional PDC sources, BRWs offer ... -
Broadband tunable, polarization-selective and directional emission of (6,5) carbon nanotubes coupled to plasmonic crystals
(2016-05-11) - Journal articleWe demonstrate broadband tunability of light emission from dense (6,5) single-walled carbon nanotube thin films via efficient coupling to periodic arrays of gold nanodisks that support surface lattice resonances (SLRs). ... -

Broadly speaking : Scots language and British imperialism.
(University of St Andrews, 2017-01) - ThesisThis thesis offers a three-pronged perspective on the historical interconnections between Lowland Scots language(s) and British imperialism. Through analyses of the manifestation of Scots linguistic varieties outwith ... -
Broadly tunable femtosecond mode-locking in a Tm:KYW laser near 2 mu m
(2011-05-09) - Journal articleEfficient mode-locking in a Tm:KY(WO4)(2) laser is demonstrated by using InGaAsSb quantum-well SESAMs. Self-starting ultrashort pulse generation was realized in the 1979-2074 nm spectral region. Maximum average output power ... -
Broadly tunable femtosecond Tm:Lu2O3 ceramic laser operating around 2070 nm
(2012-08-13) - Journal articleFemtosecond mode locking of a Tm-doped Lu2O3 ceramic laser is reported. Transform-limited pulses as short as 180 fs are generated at 2076 nm with an average output power of 400 mW and a pulse repetition frequency of 121.2 ... -
The broken dream of pervasive sentient ambient calm invisible ubiquitous computing
(ACM, 2015-04-18) - Conference itemWe dreamt of technology becoming invisible, for our wants and needs to be primary and the tools we use for making them a reality to become like a genie, a snap of the fingers and ta daa, everything is realised. What went ... -
