摘要:
The present invention provides a volumetric solar structure comprising one or more solar cells. The solar structure comprises a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type having a patterned surface thereof, the pattern defining an array of spaced-apart grooves of a funnel-like shape, and a second opposite conductivity type material layer positioned on at least a part of the patterned surface of the substrate. The structure thereby defines junction regions, in which charge carriers are generated by incident radiation energy to which the structure is exposed. The junction regions are located at different heights upon the patterned surface of the substrate.

A method and hardware for chromosome classification by decorrelation statistical analysis to provide color (spectral) karyotypes and to detect chromosomal aberrations. The method and hardware employ a set of N decorrelation matched filters for chromosome classification. The N decorrelation matched filters are dedicated for extracting decorrelated spectral data from chromosome samples painted according to a specific experimental protocol. The N decorrelation matched filters being described by: ##EQU1## where V.sub.ik min equals minimum V.sub.ik over all i, and V.sub.ik max equals maximum V.sub.ik over all i, and wherein N is an integer greater than two.

The present invention provides a silicon wave-guide (3), with a silicon oxide cladding (2, 4) on a silicon substrate (1). At predetermined positions along the length of the wave-guide, are created metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) structures. A poly-silicon, or any other conductive layer (5), is deposited and patterned above the upper cladding (4) and electrical contacts are made to the substrate (1), the silicon wave-guide (3), and the poly-silicon layer (5). Upon the application of a potential difference between at least two of the layers from the group comprising the substrate (1), the silicon wave-guide (3), and the poly-silicon layer (5), the free carrier concentration at the top and/or bottom layer of the silicon wave-guide (3) is changed by the electric field. The change in the electric field results in a change in the index of refraction, and the change in the index of refraction causes a change in the optical mode propagating in the wave-guide (3). The propagation is controlled by controlling the changes in the electric field, which can be enhanced by localized changes in the optical properties of the wave-guide (3) induced by ion implantation (6) or trapping of photo-carriers.
