Abstract: A composition includes an electrode made of Lithium Manganese Oxyfluoride (LMOF). A single layer separator adheres to a surface of the electrode, is a dielectric that is conductive for Lithium ions but not electrons, and has top and bottom sides. A solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) saturates the electrode so that the LMOF is between 55 percent and 85 percent by mass of a composition of the LMOF electrode and the SPE is between 7.5 percent and 20 percent by mass of the composition of the LMOF electrode. The SPE saturates the separator so that the SPE resides both on the separator top and bottom sides so that the SPE residing on the separator top side contacts the surface. The LMOF exhibits X-Ray Diffraction spectrum peaks between twenty-two and twenty-four 2-theta degrees, between forty-eight and fifty 2-theta degrees, between fifty-four and fifty-six 2-theta degrees, and between fifty-six and fifty-eight 2-theta degrees.

Abstract: A micro-battery is provided in which a metallic sealing layer is used to provide a hermetic seal between an anode side of the micro-battery and the cathode side of the micro-battery. In accordance with the present application, the metallic sealing layer is formed around a perimeter of each metallic anode structure located on the anode side and then the metallic sealing layer is bonded to a solderable metal layer of a wall structure present on the cathode side. The wall structure contains a cavity that exposes a metallic current collector structure, the cavity is filled with battery materials.

Abstract: Electromechanical substance delivery devices are provided which implement low-power electromechanical release mechanisms for controlled delivery of substances such as drugs and medication. For example, an electromechanical device includes a substrate having a cavity formed in a surface of the substrate, a membrane disposed on the surface of the substrate covering an opening of the cavity, and a seal disposed between the membrane and the surface of the substrate. The seal surrounds the opening of the cavity, and the seal and membrane are configured to enclose the cavity and retain a substance within the cavity. An electrode structure is configured to locally heat a portion of the membrane in response to a control voltage applied to the electrode structure, and create a stress that causes a rupture in the locally heated portion of the membrane to release the substance from within the cavity.

Abstract: A thermalization structure is formed using a foil and a low temperature device (LTD). The foil includes a first layer of a first material. The LTD includes a surface from which heat is transferred away from the LTD. A coupling is formed between the foil and the surface of the LTD, where the coupling includes a bond formed between the foil and the surface such that forming the bond forms a set of ridges in the foil, a ridge in the set of ridges operating to dissipate the heat.

Abstract: Systems, computer-implemented methods and/or computer program products that facilitate wearable multiplatform sensing are provided. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises: measuring, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, wirelessly on a nail plate, physiological data of an entity; integrating and synchronizing, by the system, the physiological data with other physiological data from one or more devices to form integrated physiological data; and analyzing, by the system, the integrated physiological data to detect one or more disorders.

Abstract: A battery structure includes an anode packaging material having a first textured surface and an anode metal formed on the first textured surface. A separator is formed on the anode metal. A cathode packaging material includes a second textured surface. A cathode metal is formed on the second textured surface. An active cathode paste is formed on the cathode metal and brought into contact with the separator such that any gap is filled with electrolyte.
