  • Patent number: 10205208
    Abstract: A method and device for harvesting and storing solar energy is provided. The device converts solar energy to electrical energy via the photovoltaic effect. The device includes a pair of electrodes, at least one of which is transparent to allow solar energy to pass through. A medium is disposed between the electrodes which exhibits a combination of photovoltaic and ferroelectric properties. When solar energy passes through the transparent electrode and is received by the medium, electron-hole pairs establish a voltage potential between electrodes in the device via the photovoltaic effect. The voltage potential may be retained and the mobile charge may be stored in the absence of solar energy via the ferroelectric effect.

  • Patent number: 9608603
    Abstract: A sampling circuit includes a first latch, a second latch and a signal transition detector. The first latch is disposed on an upstream side of a logic circuit. The second latch is disposed on a downstream side of the logic circuit. The first latch and the second latch respectively switch to opposite states of an opaque state or a transparent state according to trigger signals generated by a reference clock and a control clock. The signal transition detector is configured for detecting whether the signal outputted by the logic circuit is in error or not and outputting a corresponding control clock. The above-mentioned sampling circuit can delay switching the second latch to the opaque state and switching the first latch to the transparent state to correct sampling when a timing error occurs.
