Abstract: A plasmonic conveyor, system and method of plasmonic conveyance employ a surface plasmon that is controllably moved on a surface of a plasmonic element. The conveyor includes a first plasmonic element and a second plasmonic element that individually supports a respective surface plasmon. The conveyor further includes a controller that provides controlled movement of a location of the respective surface plasmon on a surface of the plasmonic element. The controlled movement facilitates translocation of an analyte particle around a periphery of the respective plasmonic element using a high field region of the respective surface plasmon. The system includes the conveyor and an excitation signal source that provides an excitation signal having one or both of a polarization and a frequency that are controllably variable. The method includes exciting a surface plasmon with the excitation signal and moving a location of the excited surface plasmon.

In one embodiment, the electrical connection is attached to the device via an adhesive having electrically conductive particles disposed therein. In one embodiment, the adhesive is cured while applying pressure such that the conductive particles align, have a reduced particle-to-particle spacing, or come into contact with each other to provide a more directly conductive (less resistive) path between the electrical connection and the device. In one embodiment of the present invention, a method for forming an electrical lead on a partially formed solar cell during formation of the solar cell device is provided. The method comprises placing a side-buss wire onto a pattern of electrically conductive adhesive disposed on a back contact layer of a solar cell device substrate, laminating the side-buss wire and electrically conductive adhesive between the solar cell device substrate and a back glass substrate to form a composite solar cell structure, and curing the electrically conductive adhesive while applying pressure and heat to the composite solar cell structure

Abstract: A switching device includes at least one bottom electrode and at least one top electrode. The top electrode crosses the bottom electrode at a non-zero angle, thereby forming a junction. A metal oxide layer is established on at least one of the bottom electrode or the top electrode. A molecular layer including a monolayer of organic molecules and a source of water molecules is established in the junction. Upon introduction of a forward bias, the molecular layer facilitates a redox reaction between the electrodes, thereby reducing a tunneling gap between the electrodes.
