Circular‐Polarization‐Sensitive Organic Photodetectors with a Chiral Nanopatterned Electrode Inverse‐Designed by Genetic Algorithm

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A chiral photodetector capable of selectively distinguishing left‐ and right‐handed circularly polarized light is experimentally demonstrated. The device, which features a nanopatterned electrode inverse‐designed by a genetic algorithm within a metal–dielectric–metal nanocavity that incorporates a vacuum‐deposited small‐molecule multilayer, exhibits ...

Single‐Crystalline Lateral p‐SnS/n‐SnSe van der Waals Heterostructures by Vapor Transport Growth with In Situ Bi Doping

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In‐situ doping during growth of SnSe and subsequent attachment of SnS produces high‐quality lateral pn‐heterojunctions between van der Waals semiconductors. Electron beam induced current measurements demonstrate electrically active pn‐junctions, paving the way for devices that harness charge separation at lateral interfaces in layered heterostructures.

Bio‐Orthogonally Crosslinked Supramolecular Polymer Bottlebrush Hydrogels for Long‐Term 3D Cell Culture

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Fibrous benzenetrispeptide (BTP) hydrogels, fabricated via strain‐promoted azide‐alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) crosslinking, form robust, bioinert networks. These hydrogels can support 3D cell culture, where cell viability and colony growth depend on the fiber content.

Stoma‐Shell Nanoarchitecture for Enhanced Plasma Confinement Catalysis in Synthesis of Ethanol from CO2

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
High‐energy electron impact in plasma catalysis often causes excessive dissociation of active intermediates, limiting C2+ product selectivity. To address this challenge, a bio‐inspired stoma‐shell nanoarchitecture is designed to decouple electron impact from catalytic reaction zones.

High Efficiency Thermoelectric Power Conversion

MRS Proceedings, 2005
ABSTRACTRecent efforts at Teledyne Energy Systems, Inc. have lead to significant improvements in thermoelectric (TE) materials and power conversion devices. A number of improved formulations have been identified for standard n-type PbTe and p-type TAGS alloys. The preliminary test results appear to show nearly a 50% increase in the dimensionless figure-

Session 12 overview: Efficient Power Conversion

2016 IEEE International Solid-State Circuits Conference (ISSCC), 2016
The session on Efficient Power Conversion is about improvement of efficiency and versatility in switched-capacitor, inductor-based DC-DC converters, and LED drivers. The first two papers address switched-capacitor power conversion, dealing with loss mechanisms and limited ratios.

53.5 % Photodiode RF Power Conversion Efficiency

Optical Fiber Communication Conference, 2010
A record 53.5% RF power conversion efficiency is reported for a photodiode delivering 24.4 dBm output power. This is achieved by optimized photodiode design, optical intensity-envelope shaping with a Mach-Zehnder modulator and photodiode signal compression.

Efficiency Regulations: Driving power conversion efficiency designs

IEEE Power Electronics Magazine, 2017
In recent decades, government agencies developed programs to improve the efficiency of our electronic products and appliances. A 1999 study estimated that up to 10% of electricity consumed by residential products was wasted when products had been turned off by consumers [1].

High-Efficiency Power Conversion Using Silicon Carbide Power Electronics

Materials Science Forum, 2014
The message of this paper is that the silicon carbide power transistors of today are good enough to design converters with efficiencies and switching speeds beyond comparison with corresponding technology in silicon. This is the time to act. Only in the highest power range the devices are missing.
