  • Patent number: 9243340
    Abstract: The present invention describes a method of producing a p-type light-absorbing semiconductor copper zinc tin selenide/sulfide (Cu2(ZnxSn2-x)(SySe1-y)4) (abbreviated CZTS) with electrochemical deposition. It can be used in the production of solar cell when combined with an n-type inorganic or an organic semiconductor layer. The present method comprises a one-step or a sequence of depositions using electroplating to fabricate a low-cost and large-area CZTS solar cell, without using expensive and complicated deposition techniques or highly toxic and flammable chemicals in the production process. The present method significantly reduces the cost and energy requirement for production of solar cell.

  • Patent number: 9197355
    Abstract: Drop port based shared risk link group (SRLG) systems and methods assign SRLG information to drop ports in another level or layer of a network. Thus, drop side SRLG information can be shared between different networks or layers enabling a combination with line side SRLG information within a network to identify and prevent single points of failure across the networks. Typically, SRLG details are assigned to line ports (NNI ports) within a network and this information is not shared with external networks or network layers for routing a connection through the network and the external networks. By assigning SRLG details to a drop port, this information can be relayed between the network and the external networks and considered when planning a route through all of the networks.

  • Patent number: 9091425
    Abstract: The invention provides a heat-conducting and heat-dissipating nano-material, a method for preparation thereof and a heat-dissipating system. The method comprises the following steps: i) mixing a complex formed by a high molecular material and a substance having heat conduction and heat dissipation properties with tert-butyl acetate and 4-Chlorobenzotrifluoride, wherein the complex is of nano scale in particle size; and ii) placing a mixture obtained from step i) into water and stirring the mixture in water for a period of time to afford the heat-conducting and heat-dissipating material. Application of the heat-conducting and heat-dissipating material in a heat-dissipating system of LED light may simplify the manufacturing process, save raw materials used and reduce weight and size of heat sink of the heat-dissipating system.

  • Patent number: 7337367
    Abstract: An error handling method is provided for processing adapter errors. Rather than executing a disruptive controller hardware reset, an error handling routine provides instructions for a reset operation to be loaded and executed from cache while the SDRAM is in self-refresh mode and therefore unusable.
