摘要:
A phased array system having antennas, non-variable phase shifters, and switches. The non-variable phase shifters are configured to be coupled selectively to a transmitter or a receiver. A non-variable phase shifter is configured to shift a phase of an electromagnetic energy wave that traverses the non-variable phase shifter by a fraction of a period of the electromagnetic energy wave for a range of frequencies of the electromagnetic energy wave. At least one of the fraction and the range associated with the non-variable phase shifter is different from at least one of the fraction and the range associated with other non-variable phase shifters. The switches are configured to couple selectively the antennas to the non-variable phase shifters, the transmitter, or the receiver.

摘要:
Nanowire dispersion compositions (and uses thereof) are disclosed comprising a plurality of inorganic nanowires suspended in an aqueous or non-aqueous solution comprising at least one low molecular weight and/or low HLB (Hydrophile-Lipophile Balance) value dispersant. Methods of further improving the dispersability of a plurality of inorganic nanowires in an aqueous or non-aqueous solution comprise, for example, oxidizing the surface of the nanowires prior to dispersing the nanowires in the aqueous or non-aqueous solution.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for an electronic substrate having a plurality of semiconductor devices is described. A thin film of nanowires is formed on a substrate. The thin film of nanowires is formed to have a sufficient density of nanowires to achieve an operational current level. A plurality of semiconductor regions are defined in the thin film of nanowires. Contacts are formed at the semiconductor device regions to thereby provide electrical connectivity to the plurality of semiconductor devices. Furthermore, various materials for fabricating nanowires, thin films including p-doped nanowires and n-doped nanowires, nanowire heterostructures, light emitting nanowire heterostructures, flow masks for positioning nanowires on substrates, nanowire spraying techniques for depositing nanowires, techniques for reducing or eliminating phonon scattering of electrons in nanowires, and techniques for reducing surface states in nanowires are described.
摘要:
Methods and systems for depositing nanomaterials onto a receiving substrate and optionally for depositing those materials in a desired orientation, that comprise providing nanomaterials on a transfer substrate and contacting the nanomaterials with an adherent material disposed upon a surface or portions of a surface of a receiving substrate. Orientation is optionally provided by moving the transfer and receiving substrates relative to each other during the transfer process.
摘要:
An interferometric measuring system including a movable member having a measurement reflector attached thereto, a stationary member having a reference reflector attached thereto, a light source for providing a light beam, and an optical support block having first and second beam splitters mounted thereon. The first beam splitter is operable to convert the light beam into a first pair of orthogonally polarized beams and arranged to direct one of the first pair of beams along a reference path to the reference reflector and the other of the first pair of beams along a measurement path to the measurement reflector to create a measurement interference pattern between the first pair of beams for determining a position of the movable member. The second beam splitter is operable to form a second pair of orthogonally polarized beams and arranged to direct the second pair of beams along support block measurement paths to the reference reflector. The second beam splitter is configured to form a correction interference pattern between the second pair of beams for determining error in the position of the movable member due to movement of the optical support block.
