Abstract:
A vehicle headlight and control system for a bus or large vehicle includes a headlight fixture with a center or low beam light source and side illumination light source operated independently. The side illumination light source may be activated when the vehicle is turning, as detected by the vehicle speed and steering shaft turn angle, to provide supplemental illumination. Both right and left side illumination sources may be provided, and may comprise LED light elements. The system may also include an audible sound generator to alert pedestrians when the vehicle is turning.
Abstract:
A system is disclosed for ejecting a semiconductor die from a tape to which the die is affixed during the wafer dicing process. In embodiments, the system includes an ejector tool including a support table, ejector pins and a pick-up arm. The support table is connected to a vacuum source for creating a negative pressure at an interface between the tape and support table. The support table further includes an aperture with one or more chamfered sidewalls. The vacuum source is connected to the aperture so that, upon placement of the tape on the support table with a die centered over the aperture, the vacuum source pulls a portion of the tape around the edges of the semiconductor die away from the die and into the space created by the chamfered edges.
Abstract:
A solid electrolyte includes an interpenetrating polymer network and a lithium salt dispersed in the interpenetrating polymer network. The interpenetrating polymer network includes CH2—CH2OH segments, and is formed by polymerizing a first monomer R1—OCH2—CH2—OHR2, a second monomer R3—OCH2—CH2—OmR4 and an initiator. Each “R1”, “R2” and “R3” includes —C═C— group or —C≡C— group. The “R4” includes an alkyl group or a hydrogen atom. The “m” and “n” are integer. Molecular weights of the first monomer and the second monomer are more than or equal to 100, and less than or equal to 800. The first monomer is less than or equal to 50% of the second monomer by weight. The lithium salt is less than or equal to 10% the second monomer by weight. A lithium based battery using the solid electrolyte is also provided.

A method for preparing rhesus monkey model of autoimmune type 1 diabetes and autoimmune type 1 diabetes animal model obtained are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A lithium iron phosphate hierarchical structure includes a plurality of lithium iron phosphate nano sheets and has an overall spherical-shaped structure. The overall spherical-shaped structure is constructed by a plurality of lithium iron phosphate nano sheets layered together. A method for making a lithium iron phosphate hierarchical structure includes several steps. In the method, a lithium ion contained liquid solution, a ferrous ion contained liquid solution, and a phosphate ion contained liquid solution are respectively provided. A concentration of lithium ions in the lithium ion contained liquid solution is equal to or larger than 1.8 mol/L. The lithium ion contained liquid solution, the ferrous ion contained liquid solution, and the phosphate ion contained liquid solution are mixed to form a liquid mixture. The liquid mixture is heated in a sealed reactor to form the lithium iron phosphate hierarchical structure.

Abstract:
One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for fabricating a group III-V p-type nitride structure. The method comprises growing a first layer of p-type group III-V material with a first acceptor density in a first growing environment. The method further comprises growing a second layer of p-type group III-V material, which is thicker than the first layer and which has a second acceptor density, on top of the first layer in a second growing environment. In addition, the method comprises growing a third layer of p-type group III-V material, which is thinner than the second layer and which has a third acceptor density, on top of the second layer in a third growing environment.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for detection of changes in impedance a patient that includes generating measured impedances, generating an adaptive baseline trend of the measured impedances corresponding to a first time period, generating a short term trend of the measured impedances corresponding to a second time period less than the first time period, determining changes in relative position of the short term trend and the baseline trend, the determined changes in relative position corresponding to determining intersecting of the baseline trend by the short term trend, determining differences between the baseline trend and calculated period average impedances, and accumulating, in response to determining no intersecting of the baseline trend by the short term trend, the determined differences between the baseline trend and the calculated period average impedances.
