    摘要: A metamaterial inclusion structure (MIS), a metamaterial and a method of producing an optical magnetic response employ interspersed plasmonic and dielectric materials. The MIS includes first petals of a plasmonic material and second petals of a dielectric material that alternate at a surface and along a periphery of the MIS. The MIS exhibits the magnetic resonance when illuminated by an optical signal at an optical wavelength. The optical signal has a magnetic field component that is parallel with an interface between the first petals and the second petals. The metamaterial includes a plurality of the MIS arranged in an array and provides an optical magnetic susceptibility at the optical wavelength. The method forms the MIS with the alternating petals and includes illuminating the MIS with the optical signal.

    摘要: A voltage equalizer is applied to balance voltages among multiple battery units that are connected in series as a battery assembly. The voltage equalizer has a transformer, a switch and a controller. The transformer has a primary winding connected to the battery assembly and the controller through the switch, and further has multiple secondary windings connected to the battery units respectively. When the switch is alternately turned on and off, the transformer draws energy from the battery units with the higher voltage and couples the energy to the secondary windings to charge the battery unit with the lower voltage for balancing the voltages of the battery units.

    摘要: Resistive switches and related methods are provided. Such a resistive switch includes an active material in contact with opposite end electrodes. The active material defines electron traps that capture or release charges in accordance with applied switching voltages. Resistive switches are characterized by ON state and OFF state resistance curves. Resistance ratios of ten times or more are exhibited. The state of a resistive switch is determined using sensing voltages lesser then the switching threshold.

    摘要: An electrically driven device (10) for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy includes a first electrode (16), a substrate (12) positioned proximate to the first electrode (16), a plurality of cone shaped protrusions (12′) formed integrally with or on a substrate surface (S), a Raman signal-enhancing material (14) coated on each protrusion (12′), and a second electrode (18) positioned relative to the first electrode (16) at a predetermined distance, D. Each of the protrusions (12′) has a tip (22) with a radius of curvature, r, ranging from about 0.1 nm to about 100 nm. The second electrode (18) is positioned relative to the first electrode (16) such that the electrodes (16, 18) together produce an electric field (EF) when a voltage bias is applied therebetween. The electric field (EF) has a field distribution that creates a stronger field gradient at a region proximate to the tips (22) than at other portions of the substrate (12).
