摘要:
Effective utilization of a parallel flow air-cooled microchannel array at the micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) scale is prohibited by unfavorable flow patterns in simple rectangular arrays. The primary problem encountered is the inability of the flow stream to penetrate a sufficient depth into the fin core to achieve the desired fin efficiency. Embodiments of the present invention overcome this problem using a manifold with open nozzle discharge and integrated lateral exhaust along with a microchannel array cooler with micro spreading cavities for internal air distribution.

The present invention relates to liquid cooling systems and more particularly to a liquid cooling system for an electrical system on an air-cooled platform. In one embodiment of the invention, a liquid-cooled system for a platform with air cooling includes an electrical system comprising first and second electrical components; a cooling unit comprising an air flow path, a first heat exchanger in the air flow path, and a second heat exchanger in the air flow path downstream of the first heat exchanger; a first liquid loop passing through the first heat exchanger and the first electrical component; and a second liquid loop passing through the second heat exchanger and the second electrical component. The first liquid loop is substantially thermally isolated from the second liquid loop.

An optical device includes an optical material comprising active dopant ions and absorber dopant ions spaced apart from the active dopant ions. The active dopant ions are provided to absorb a first radiation and convert a portion of the first radiation into sensible heat. A concentration profile of the absorber dopant ions is selected to absorb a second radiation different from the first radiation and optionally the first radiation in at least one direction of the optical material so as to control a refractive index profile in the at least one direction of the optical material. In another embodiment, a method of controlling a refractive index profile in an optical material includes exciting active dopant ions in the optical material with a first radiation, the active dopant ions converting at least a portion of the first radiation into sensible heat; and exciting absorber dopant ions in the optical material with a second radiation to control a refractive index profile in at least one direction of the optical material.

A slot impingement cooler is formed of a plurality of sets of foils in a stacked and registered array. In each set of foils, a first foil has supply slots that direct a flow of coolant, a second foil has a plurality of effective light-trap cavities, a third foil has return slots that return the flow of coolant, and an optional fourth foil has a plurality of effective light-trap cavities. The foils have registered supply manifold openings and registered return manifold openings therethrough.

A radially self-expanding stent having multiple layers includes a medial region and proximal and distal cuffs having diameters greater than the medial region diameter when the stent is in the relaxed state. A silicone coating circumscribes at least the medial region of the stent. A deployment device for the stent includes an inner tube surrounded by the stent along with an outer tube that radially compresses the stent. A low durometer sleeve, fixed to the inner tube and in surface engagement with the compressed stent, tends to fix the axial position of the stent relative to the inner tube whenever the outer tube is moved axially relative to the inner tube. Consequently, precision in stent placement and the ability to recapture a partially deployed stent are enhanced.

In some embodiments, a semiconductor cooling apparatus includes a monolithic array of cooling elements. Each cooling element of the monolithic array of cooling elements is configured to thermally couple to a respective semiconductor element of an array of semiconductor elements. At least two of the semiconductor elements have a different height and each cooling element independently flexes to conform to the height of the respective semiconductor element.
