    摘要: A thermoelectric device may include a thermoelectric element including a layer of a thermoelectric material and having opposing first and second surfaces. A first metal pad may be provided on the first surface of the thermoelectric element, and a second metal pad may be provided on the second surface of the thermoelectric element. In addition, the first and second metal pads may be off-set in a direction parallel with respect to the first and second surfaces of the thermoelectric element. Related methods are also discussed.

    摘要: A thermoelectric heating/cooling structure may include a heat exchanger and a heat spreader spaced apart from the heat exchanger. In addition, a plurality of spaced apart thermoelectric components may be thermally coupled in parallel between the heat exchanger and the heat spreader. More particularly, each of the thermoelectric components may include a first header adjacent the heat exchanger, a second header adjacent the heat spreader, and a plurality of thermoelectric elements thermally coupled in parallel between the first and second headers. The first headers of the thermoelectric components may be spaced apart adjacent the heat exchanger, and the second headers of the thermoelectric components may be spaced apart adjacent the heat spreader.

    摘要: Three dimensional electronic and optical coupling devices that are capable of providing high speed coupling over a large frequency range while limiting the amount of space consumption in the communications network. An optical or electrical coupling device comprises a first substrate and a second substrate adjacent to the first substrate having one or more optical waveguides or microstrips formed thereon. The substrates will have disposed thereon conductive microstrips and/or dielectric elements. The one or more optical waveguides or microstrips formed on the first substrate correspond to at least one optical waveguides or microstrips formed on the second substrate so as to facilitate optical coupling between the corresponding waveguides. Precise spacing between the substrates and precise spacing between the optical waveguides or microstrips facilitate the requisite optical/RF coupling.

    摘要: A reflector having a mechanically deformable portion of at least one reflective surface is disclosed. By deforming the portion of the reflective surface, discontinuity is introduced in that portion of the reflective surface. The discontinuity in the reflective surface scatters incident radiation signals so as to cause attenuation in the reflected signal. By selectively deforming the portion of the reflective surface, the reflected signal can be modulated to encode data thereon. The mechanically deformable portion of the reflective surface preferably comprises plates integrally formed therein.
