摘要:
A device and method for manufacturing a two-dimensional electrostrictive field effect transistor having a substrate, a source, a drain, and a channel disposed between the source and the drain. The channel is a two-dimensional layered material and a gate proximate the channel. The gate has a column of an electrostrictive or piezoelectric or ferroelectric material, wherein an electrical input to the gate produces an elongation of the column that applies a force or mechanical stress on the channel and reduces a bandgap of two-dimensional material such that the two-dimensional electrostrictive field effect transistor operates with a subthreshold slope that is less than 60 mV/decade.

摘要:
The invention includes methods of forming electronic circuitry on a target surface using intense pulsed light-induced mass transfer (IPLMT) of metal nanoparticles (NPs) by applying a pliable mask to a target surface, coating a carrier film with metal NPs, mounting the carrier film to the target surface and over the pliable mask so that the pliable mask is sandwiched between the target surface and the metal NPs. and exposing the metal NPs to light energy to cause atoms of the metal NPs to evaporate and transport through openings of the pliable mask and condense on the target surface, producing a conductive pattern of condensed metal on the target surface. Certain implementations may utilize a kirigami-patterned pliable mask to enhance conformity to a freeform 3D target surface. In certain implementations, zinc (Zn) may be formed by IPLMT of Zn NPs to the target surface.
摘要:
The present invention generally relates to the generation of tunable coloration and/or interference from, for example, surfaces, emulsion droplets and particles. Embodiments described herein may be useful for generation of tunable electromagnetic radiation such as coloration (e.g., iridescence, structural color) and/or interference patterns from, for example, surfaces (e.g., comprising a plurality of microdomes and/or microwells), emulsion droplets and/or particles. In some embodiments, the surfaces, interfaces, droplets, and/or particles produce visible color (e.g., structural color) without the need for dyes.

Thermosetting formulations useful for forming bulk structures such as in additive manufacturing can include (a) a compound including reactive functional groups, (b) a curing agent having functional groups reactive with the reactive functional groups of the compound, and (c) a photothermally active material. Such formulations can be cured by applying actinic radiation to the formulation.

The devices are capable of locking into position to maintain accuracy.
摘要:
Tuning fracture hydraulic conductivity can be provided so that high hydraulic conductivity in high temperature zones and low hydraulic conductivity in low temperature zones can be defined in enhanced geothermal systems (EGS). Uniform thermal gradient along flow paths can be provided or defined to help provide such conductivity zones. Experimentation performed to evaluate embodiments showed that embodiments could prevent appearance of dominant flow paths between the wells and maintain high heat extraction rates. Embodiments can greatly increase cumulative heat extraction. Embodiments can also be provided for application solely to the injection wells. Other embodiments can position tuning agents between the wells and still help provide control of the fluid flow in the reservoir and enhance heat extraction.
摘要:
Embodiments of the systems can be configured to receive electromagnetic emissions of a substrate (e.g., a build material of a part being made via additive manufacturing) by a detector (e.g., a multi-spectral sensor) and generate a ratio of the electromagnetic emissions to perform spectral analysis with a reduced dependence on location and orientation of a surface of the substrate relative to the multi-spectral sensor. The additive manufacturing process can involve use of a laser to generate a laser beam for fusion of the build material into the part. The system can be configured to set the multi-spectral sensor off-axis with respect to the laser (e.g., an optical path of the multi-spectral sensor is at an angle that is different than the angle of incidence of the laser beam). This can allow the multi-spectral sensor to collect spectral data simultaneously as the laser is used to build the part.

A biochemical analysis system capable of sample preparation and processing can include at least one inlet channel having a non-fouling, slippery surface to autonomously transport a fluid sample to a chamber by a geometry of the at least one inlet channel. The at least one inlet channel can include a first end, which is open and exposed, and a second end connected to the chamber for mixing and reaction of the fluid sample, and the at least one inlet channel can include a converging or diverging angle.
