Characterization of an Active Soldering Zn-Mg Alloy and the Study of Ultrasonic Soldering of SiC Ceramics with Copper Substrate

Applied Sciences
The aim of this study was to characterize a Zn-Mg type soldering alloy and direct soldering of SiC ceramics with a copper substrate. The Zn1.5Mg solder exerts a wider melting interval. The temperature of the eutectic reaction was 365 °C, and the liquidus

Shingle Interconnection Reliability of PERC and Thin HJT Cells for Low Earth Orbit Applications

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
Evolution of maximum power output (Pmax$$ {}_m ax $$) of PERC and thin HJT shingled cells with the Electrically Conductive Adhesives (ECA) “S” and “A” exposed to +120°C/−$$ - $$120°C thermal cycles up to 5×103$$ 5\times 1{0}^3 $$ times. Losses are induced by an increased series resistance with all cell technologies and ECA. Imaging (electroluminescence

Exploding Bridgewire (EBW) Detonators: An Example of Synergistic Multiphysics

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Exploding bridgewire (EBW) detonators are highly temporally reproducible explosive devices that require the rapid discharge of a high‐voltage capacitance to operate and so are immune to most of the accidental hazards associated with traditional electric detonators.

T‐800: An 800 Hz Data Glove for Precise Hand Gesture Tracking

SmartBot, EarlyView.
Hand motion capture provides critical insights into human dexterity and facilitates advancements in robotic manipulation, yet existing systems are limited by a trade‐off between temporal resolution and visual occlusion. Here, the authors present T‐800, a high‐bandwidth data glove achieving synchronized full‐hand motion capturing at 800 Hz.
