Patent number: 12168604Abstract: A micro-nano incremental mechanical surface treatment method, comprising the following steps: using a modification tool having a designable end to contact a surface of a substrate material, rotating the modification tool in a local region and compressing the material surface, presetting processing parameters by means of 3D modeling software, and after the tool has processed the entire surface, enabling the tool to move downwards to the indented surface compressed previously. The process continues until the surface material is compressed to a pre-defined thickness, thereby achieving the goals of grain refinement and surface performance improvement. By means of the present method, a workpiece having a complex shape can be flexibly and designably surface modified. The method has the advantages of high bonding strength, no pollution, and low cost.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2020Date of Patent: December 17, 2024Assignee: NANJING UNIVERSITY OF AERONAUTICS AND ASTRONAUTICSInventors: Hongyu Wei, Laishui Zhou, Huiliang Zhang, Ghulam Hussain, Wanlin Zhou, Haiji Chen, Xiao Zhang, Lili Dong

Patent number: 10381138Abstract: Disclosed are a resistor, a heat dissipater and a combinatory device of the resistor and the heat dissipater, and relates to the field of power electronics. The resistor is cylindrical, and comprises a metal end, an insulating part, a casing, metal bars, a resistor wire, thermally conductive insulating fillers and a metal connection mechanism. The metal connection mechanism of the resistor and the heat dissipater are connected by means of direct contact. The structure and the connection method can shorten the length of the resistor, completely insulate the electrical circuits of the resistor from the possible leakage of the water inlet- and outlet-pipe of the heat dissipater, and enable the combinatory device of the resistor and the heat dissipater to be structurally more compact and the connections thereof cleaner.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2015Date of Patent: August 13, 2019Assignees: NR ELECTRIC CO., LTD, NR ENGINEERING CO., LTD, NR ELECTRIC POWER ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Taixun Fang, Xiang Zhang, Lei Liu, Zhao Li, Guangtai Zhang, Fengfeng Ding, Huiliang Zhang

Patent number: 9541512Abstract: Multi-color CL images of nanoparticle samples may be generated, by irradiating with a scanning electron beam a nanoparticle sample that containing a plurality of spectrally distinct optical emitters configured to generate CL light at respective different color channels, then detecting the CL light from the nanoparticles to generate multi-color NP-CL images of the nanoparticle sample. In some embodiments, SE (secondary electron) images of the sample may be acquire, substantially simultaneously with the acquisition of the CL images, so as to generate correlative NP-CL and SE images of the nanoparticle sample. In some embodiments, the nanoparticles may be surface-functionalized so that the nanoparticles selectively bind only to particular structures of interest.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2012Date of Patent: January 10, 2017Assignee: PRESIDENT AND FELLOWS OF HARVARD COLLEGEInventors: Ronald Walsworth, Jeff Lichtman, Narayanan Kasthuri, David Glenn, Huiliang Zhang, Richard Schalek
