摘要:
Methods and apparatus are provided for converting electromagnetic radiation, such as solar energy, into electric energy with increased efficiency when compared to conventional solar cells. In one embodiment of a photovoltaic (PV) device, the PV device generally includes an n-doped layer and a p+-doped layer adjacent to the n-doped layer to form a p-n layer such that electric energy is created when electromagnetic radiation is absorbed by the p-n layer. The n-doped layer and the p+-doped layer may compose an absorber layer having a thickness less than 500 nm. Such a thin absorber layer may allow for greater efficiency and flexibility in PV devices when compared to conventional solar cells.

A graphical display system includes one or more sensors for obtaining data, wherein the data obtained includes position and trajectory data for a craft and airport data; a display element for displaying graphics and data; and at least one processor coupled to the one or more sensors. Based on data received from the one or more sensors regarding craft position and trajectory relative to an airport, the at least one processor determines if a runway is being targeted, selects which runway guides and alerts to display based on data obtained and runway targeted, and sends signals to the display element to display the targeted runway with the selected runway guides and alerts.

The present invention discloses a power amplifier tube and a power amplification method, wherein, the power amplifier tube includes a High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) power amplifier die and a Lateral Double-Diffused Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (LDMOS) power amplifier die, and the HEMT power amplifier die and the LDMOS power amplifier die are integrated in the same package. The present invention should be configured as a Doherty amplifier, which designs a power tube by using a breakthrough new power amplifier die combination, and can achieve high efficient power amplification on the basis of ensuring a small volume of the power amplifier tube, compared with the existing Doherty amplifiers each of which uses the LDMOS power amplifier die.

A fiber rotator mechanism for rotating a portion of an optical waveguide, specifically an optical fiber, about a longitudinal axis thereof comprises a motor having a tubular rotor through which the fiber extends, in use, and to which the fiber is secured, directly or indirectly. An optical fiber may be secured by means of a device which also compresses the optical fiber to induce a required birefringence, conveniently by means of a spring-loaded clamping device or a ferrule of shape memory material.

Embodiments of the invention generally relate to epitaxial lift off (ELO) thin films and devices and methods used to form such films and devices. In one embodiment, a method for forming a thin film material during an epitaxial lift off process is provided which includes forming an epitaxial material over a sacrificial layer on a substrate, adhering a non-uniform support handle onto the epitaxial material, and removing the sacrificial layer during an etching process. The etching process further includes peeling the epitaxial material from the substrate while forming an etch crevice therebetween and bending the support handle to form compression in the epitaxial material during the etching process. In one example, the non-uniform support handle contains a wax film having a varying thickness.

There is provided a method for determining an in-band noise parameter, such as the Optical Signal-to-Noise Ratio (OSNR), on an optical signal-under-test (SUT) propagating along an optical communication link and comprising a data-carrying signal contribution of any arbitrary degree of polarization and a noise contribution. A spectral shape trace of signal contribution in the SUT is estimated using a reference optical spectrum trace of a reference signal which comprises a signal contribution that is spectrally representative of the signal contribution of the SUT and a noise contribution which is at least approximately known. The signal contribution is mathematically discriminated from said noise contribution in the SUT using the spectral shape trace and the test optical spectrum trace. The in-band noise parameter is then determined at least from the mathematically discriminated noise contribution.

Embodiments of the invention generally relate to apparatuses for chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes. In one embodiment, a wafer carrier track for levitating and traversing a wafer carrier within a vapor deposition reactor system is provided which includes upper and lower sections of a track assembly having a gas cavity formed therebetween. A guide path extends along an upper surface of the upper section and between two side surfaces which extend along and above the guide path and parallel to each other. A plurality of gas holes along the guide path extends from the upper surface of the upper section, through the upper section, and into the gas cavity. In some examples, the upper and lower sections of the track assembly may independently contain quartz, and in some examples, may be fused together.
