摘要: Inverters that interface dc and ac power sources and loads are provided. An example application is solar power systems, in which a dc source of power is an array of solar panels; the inverter converts the dc power supplied by these panels to ac power that is fed into the utility grid. Another example is battery energy storage; the inverter changes the dc power of the batteries into ac power that is fed into the grid, and also can convert (rectify) ac power from the grid for charging the batteries. In one embodiment, for example, an inverter comprises slow switches that generate a three-level ac voltage, followed by a plurality of fast-switching half-bridges that introduce high-frequency pulse-width modulation into a plurality of ac output voltages.

摘要: Some embodiments of the invention include a thermal ground plane with a variable thickness vapor core. For example, a thermal ground plan may include a first casing and a second casing where the second casing and the first casing configured to enclose a working fluid. The thermal ground plane may also include an evaporator region disposed at least partially on at least one of the first casing and the second casing; a condenser region disposed at least partially on at least one of the first casing and the second casing; and a wicking layer disposed between the first casing and the second casing a vapor core defined at least partially by a gap between the first casing and the second casing. The thickness of the gap can vary across the first casing and the second casing.

摘要: A serpentine integrated grating spectrometer includes a serpentine delay line and a plurality of grating couplers. The serpentine delay line includes a plurality of parallel waveguide segments that are coplanar in a delay-line plane. The serpentine delay line serially connects each of the plurality of grating couplers. Each of the plurality of grating couplers (i) is located at a respective one of the plurality of parallel waveguide segments, and (ii) direct light propagating in the serpentine delay line out of the delay-line plane. The plurality of waveguide segments is M in number and impart a total group delay time ry on light propagating therethrough. Each of the plurality of grating couplers impart a grating coupler delay tx on light propagating therethrough that exceeds (ty/M), the time delay for a single segment of the M parallel segments.

摘要: Systems and methods for improved volumetric additive manufacturing (VAM) are described herein. In some aspects of the present disclosure, approaches to VAM image-computation are provided that algebraically optimizes directly on the structure to be printed, instead of on the set of external projection images. These approaches provide multiple advantages including improved reconstruction fidelity, simplicity, flexibility, and robust convergence to a desirable reconstruction, regardless of initial image-set guess.

摘要: A prodrug enzyme covalently photoconjugated to a live cell receptor survives endosomal proteolysis and retains its catalytic activity on the living cell membrane over multiple days. Antibody-directed enzyme prodrug therapy is a promising approach for selective treatment of solid tumors, but methods are needed to preserve enzyme activity on living cell membranes over multiple prodrug dosings. A fusion protein was designed with both an anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) affibody and the prodrug enzyme cytosine deaminase, which can convert prodrug 5-fluorocytosine to the anticancer drug 5-fluorouracil. A benzophenone group was added at a site-specific mutation within the affibody portion, and the fusion protein was selectively and irreversibly photoconjugated to EGFR receptors expressed on membranes of live MDA-MB-468 breast cancer cells. Affinity-mediated covalent conjugation of the affibody-enzymes to cell receptors allows for prolonged expression on membranes and retained enzymatic activity without genetic engineering.
