Project Summary Abstract Terahertz waves have unique specifications that make them very attractive for non invasivelabel free biosensingThis is because many organic compounds have unique responses to the electromagnetic waves at terahertz frequenciesIn additionterahertz waves can penetrate through many optically opaque environments as well as most of the packaging materials such as plasticpaperetc ...

NanoSD, Inc. with its partners will develop a transparent, nanostructured thermally insulating film that can be applied to existing single-pane windows to reduce heat loss. To produce the nanostructured film, the team will create hollow ceramic or polymer nanobubbles and consolidate them into a dense lattice structure using heat and compression. Because it is mostly air, the resulting nanobubble s ...

DESCRIPTION provided by applicant Delivery of therapeutic drugs via the dermal route is a promising alternative to oral or parenteral delivery routes Dermal drug delivery systems DS offer unique advantages which include controlled release over longer durations for steady absorption into the systemic circulation reduced systemic toxicity significant reduction in first pass effects and ga ...

Concentrator PV systems using highly efficient multijunction photovoltaic cells hold out the promise of very low-cost solar electricity generation, but their adoption has been hamstrung by the requirement for bulky mechanical trackers that add cost, diminish land use, increase maintenance, and exclude roof-top installations. The Stationary Wide-Angle Concentrator (SWAC) PV system will provides the ...

In this abstract the development of vertical power transistors utilizing bulk GaN substrates with breakdown voltages of 1200V or higher, normally-off operation, and a drain current rating of 100A is proposed. These devices will feature vertical current flow, avalanche ruggedness, and a wide operating temperature range (-55 to 150°C). The target specific on-resistance for the transistor is 30x low ...
