Patent number: 12139804Abstract: A system and method for generating arsine are disclosed. The system may include a shell having a top interior surface. The system may also include a cathode-anode assembly positioned in the shell and forming an elongated structure substantially parallel to the top surface. The cathode-anode assembly may include a first electrode and a second electrode surrounding the first electrode and forming a gap therebetween. The second electrode may include a plurality of channels along a length of the second electrode. The plurality of channels may allow circulation of electrolyte within and around at least a portion of the cathode-anode assembly and allow gases generated in response to current applied to the cathode-anode assembly to escape from the cathode-anode assembly. Such gases may be used as precursor gases for a high-volume metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) operation.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2021Date of Patent: November 12, 2024Assignee: Utica Leaseco, LLCInventors: Nabil A. Khater, Kuanping Gong, Chaowei Wang, Daniel Mark Dobkin

Patent number: 9490486Abstract: A method of synthesizing activated electrocatalyst, preferably having a morphology of a nanostructure, is disclosed. The method includes safely and efficiently removing surfactants and capping agents from the surface of the metal structures. With regard to metal nanoparticles, the method includes synthesis of nanoparticle(s) in polar or non-polar solution with surfactants or capping agents and subsequent activation by CO-adsorption-induced surfactant/capping agent desorption and electrochemical oxidation. The method produces activated macroparticle or nanoparticle electrocatalysts without damaging the surface of the electrocatalyst that includes breaking, increasing particle thickness or increasing the number of low coordination sites.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2013Date of Patent: November 8, 2016Assignees: Brookhaven Science Associates, LLC, The Research Foundation for the State University of New YorkInventors: Radoslav R.

Publication number: 20150225243Abstract: A process for purifying carbon nanotubes includes mixing a fluid carrier with an oxidizing agent to form an oxidizing solution, and adding the oxidizing solution to a closed container such that the oxidizing solution makes up a fraction of the volume of the container. Carbon nanotubes containing transition metal nanoparticles and carbonaceous impurities are then added to the oxidizing solution to form a carbon nanotube slurry, and the slurry is heated at an elevated temperature not exceeding 110° C. to vaporize at least a portion of the oxidizing agent. Acid is then added to the heated carbon nanotube slurry to dissolve transition metal particles.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 28, 2015Publication date: August 13, 2015Inventors: Kuanping Gong, Lijie Ci

Publication number: 20150221408Abstract: Graphene-based hybrid films are made by coating electrically conductive nanostructures (such as carbon nanotubes or conductive nanowires) onto a metal substrate, and growing a graphene layer between the nanostructures and the substrate. The nanostructure coating on the substrate yields nucleation sites for the growth of the graphene layer. The process provides hybrid films in which graphene domains are electrically connected by the nanotubes or nanowires. Integral bonds (e.g., chemical bonds) are produced between the nanostructures and the graphene to provide improved electrical conductivity, via contact in excess of van der Waals forces.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 20, 2015Publication date: August 6, 2015Inventors: Kuanping Gong, Lijie Ci
