  • Publication number: 20080131333
    Abstract: A lateral-flow dielectric barrier discharging reactor unit is designed to effectively process waste gas. Nonthermal plasma is obtained through high voltage gas breakdown for processing the waste gas. Reactor units can be arranged and integrated in a serial and/or parallel way with flow uniformity and smoothness for processing a great amount of waste gas with merits of simplicity and low cost.

  • Publication number: 20080118662
    Abstract: An amorphous silicon (Si) film is taken to form a metal silicide of Si—Al(aluminum) under a high temperature. Al atoms is diffused into the amorphous Si film for forming the metal silicide of Si—Al as nucleus site. Then through heating and annealing, a microcrystalline or nano-crystalline silicon thin film is obtained. The whole process is only one process and is done in only one reacting chamber.

  • Publication number: 20080115830
    Abstract: Sets of a solar cell and a lens are obtained on a surface of a solar concentrator module. The solar cell is located at a focal point of the lens. The other sets whose solar cells are replaced with lighting devices are obtained on the opposite surface of the solar concentrator module. Each later set is reversely piled up on a former set. Hence, a light shining through the later set and the former set from the lighting device is focused on the solar cell. Consequently, photoelectric characteristics of the solar concentrator module is tested with greatly reduced cost.

  • Publication number: 20080094862
    Abstract: The present invention is an AC/DC (alternating current to direct current) converter. The converter contains two semi-stages. One is the boost-flyback semi-stage that has excellent self-PFC property when operating in DCM even though the boost output is close to the peak value of the line voltage. Moreover, it allows part input power transferred to load directly through the flyback path so the power conversion efficiency is improved. The other one is the D/DC semi-stage that provides another parallel power flow path and improves the regulation speed.
