Abstract: A method of fabricating a battery comprises selecting a battery substrate having cleavage planes, and depositing at least one battery component film comprising a metal or metal compound. A plurality of pulsed laser beam bursts from a femtosecond laser source that is set to provide a pulsed laser beam having an irradiance level of from about 10 to about 800 J/cm2, are applied to the battery component film to vaporize at least a portion of the metal or metal compound of the battery component film substantially without causing fractures along the cleavage planes of the battery substrate.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a battery comprises selecting a battery substrate having cleavage planes, and depositing on the battery substrate, one or more battery component films comprising electrode films that at least partially surround an electrolyte film. Pulsed laser beam bursts are applied to the battery component films at a sufficiently high power level to vaporize portions of the films to form shaped battery features. The pulsed laser bursts shape the films substantially without causing fractures along the cleavage planes of the battery substrate. Pulsed laser shaping can be used to replace the use of a mask in the fabrication of shaped battery components.

Abstract: In a method of fabricating a battery, a substrate is annealed to reduce surface contaminants or even water of crystallization from the substrate. A series of battery component films are deposited on a substrate, including an adhesion film, electrode films, and an electrolyte film. An adhesion film is deposited on the substrate and regions of the adhesion film are exposed to oxygen. An overlying stack of cathode films is deposited in successive deposition and annealing steps.

Abstract: A method and system for processing first and second seismic traces includes rotating the first seismic traces and the second seismic traces to forty-five degrees in the time domain. In one embodiment, the rotated first time domain traces and second time domain traces are transformed to the frequency domain to obtain an amplitude spectrum for each rotated first time domain trace and an amplitude spectrum for each rotated second time domain trace. Each amplitude spectrum is squared to obtain a power spectrum for each transformed and rotated time domain trace. The phase of each transformed rotated time domain trace to zero. The power spectrum for each transformed rotated time domain trace is then averaged. Each transformed rotated time domain trace is divided into time windows. A power spectrum for each window is obtained for the entire of each transformed rotated time domain trace. The power spectra of each window of the transformed rotated time domain trace is summed to obtain a summed first power spectrum.
