The proposed program would develop 2-pole high-temperature superconducting dc power cables and connectors with a power rating of up to 50 MW that would enable twin-aisle aircraft with distributed electric propulsion in an effort to reduce carbon emissions of large passenger aircraft. The cables and connectors will contain dielectrics that are independent of the cryogenic medium used as coolant and ...

The proposed technology will boost the power production and increase the density of utility wind farms, resulting in at least a 23% reduction in levelized cost of energy (LCOE) from the wind while simultaneously utilizing wind resources more effectively. This disruptive drop in wind energy costs will increase the penetration of cost-effective wind energy. The flow dynamics of vertical-axis wind tu ...

The objective of this work is to develop AlN-based Schottky diodes with electrical properties that will drastically reduce forward conduction losses compared to existing high-power diodes. This objective is achieved through ion implantation of Si in AlN, which provides a shallow ntype dopant in the n+ contact layers. Sophisticated point defect control processes are implemented for the controlled, ...
