Nanoparticle compositions include a plurality of spherical-shaped nanoparticles and a plurality of coral-shaped metal nanoparticles, each coral-shaped metal nanoparticle having a non-uniform cross section and a globular structure formed by multiple, non-linear strands joined together without right angles. The nanoparticle compositions can be one-part or multi-part compositions. Nanoparticle compositions can have a mass ratio of spherical-shaped to coral-shaped nanoparticles of about 5:1-20:1, about 7.5:1-15:1, about 9:1-11:1, or about 10:1 and/or a number ratio of spherical-shaped to coral-shaped nanoparticles of about 50:1-200:1, about 75:1-150:1, about 90:1-110:1 or about 100:1. The nanoparticle compositions can be used for various purposes, including as an antimicrobial (e.g., anti-viral, anti-bacteria, or anti-fungal composition), fuel additive, or treating fabrics.

A laser system may include a laser source (31) configured to generate a laser light beam and an acousto-optic modulator (AOM). The AOM (32) may include an acousto-optic medium (33) configured to receive the laser light beam, and a phased array transducer (34) comprising a plurality of electrodes coupled to the acousto-optic medium and configured to cause the acousto-optic medium to output a zero order laser light beam and a first order diffracted laser light beam. The system may further include a beam splitter (35) downstream from the AOM and configured to split a sampled laser light beam from the zero order laser light beam, a photodetector (37) configured to receive the sampled laser light beam and generate a feedback signal associated therewith, and a radio frequency (RF) driver (36) configured to generate an RF drive signal to the phased array transducer electrodes so that noise is diverted to the first order diffracted laser light beam based upon the feedback signal into a beam dump (39).
摘要:
A laser processing system can be utilized to produce high-performance interdigitated back contact (IBC) solar cells. The laser processing system can be utilized to ablate, transfer material, and/or laser-dope or laser fire contacts. Laser ablation can be utilized to remove and pattern openings in a passivated or emitter layer. Laser transferring may then be utilized to transfer dopant and/or contact materials to the patterned openings, thereby forming an interdigitated finger pattern. The laser processing system may also be utilized to plate a conductive material on top of the transferred dopant or contact materials.
摘要:
A reverse-acting pressure relief device (10) is provided comprising buckling-control structures, namely pocket regions (20, 22) and belt regions (24) having differing material thicknesses. The pocket regions (20, 22) generally comprise areas of reduced material thicknesses and serve to weaken the structural integrity of the bulged section (12) of device (10) so that reversal can be initiated at lower pressures. Belt regions (24) generally comprise areas of enhanced mechanical properties that assist with reversal control and opening of bulged section (12) thereby ensuring complete opening of the device (10).
