I went back in the evening to see if the benches worked when it was overcast (they do, but seemed a bit slower to charge) and lo and behold, one of the benches was being used by a small group of friends. So yes, people are using them. If I happened to be walking by one of the benches and my phone needed a charge and I was carrying a power cord and I had time to sit on a bench and wait, I’d use it again..

In this thesis instrumental implementation and design of a Raman spectral imaging prototype aiming to reduce the acquisition time required to build the Raman spectral images was developed.High sensitivity variants of Raman spectroscopy such as surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) are known to enable optical detection down to single molecules and can be applied to thin supported lipid research. The combination of SERS with a complementary topographic technique simultaneously synchronised adds to the chemical information the morphology of the sample surface. In the second part of this thesis simultaneous atomic force microscopy (AFM) and SERS characterisation of thin (15 20 nm) supported films of arachidic acid and cationic phospholipids on sapphire/silver substrates was successfully achieved.

Whilst universities have long been considered to possess the capacity that can foster local community development in a developing context such as in Sub Saharan Africa, it is not clear what disposition the university should adopt, given the complexity surrounding its mission in a changing landscape. Drawing on the meaning of community development and the centrality of the idea of “working together” to effect “change” associated with it; the research underpinning this article investigated how well the university can effectively respond to local needs and stimulate development. Interviews and focus group discussions took place with university and community participants drawn from disparate backgrounds within a Cameroonian context on the nature of a local university’s community engagement.
