Publication number: 20180347154Abstract: A system for determining a material entity to be removed from a pile by an implement of a material moving machine is provided. The system includes an arrangement for generating a current pile shape of the actual surface shape of the pile. Moreover, the system is adapted to determine a nominal pile shape of at least a portion of the pile. The nominal pile shape is determined on the basis of at least the current pile shape and information regarding the material type of the pile. Further the system is adapted to determine a surplus volume between the nominal pile shape and the current pile shape and the system is adapted to determine the material entity to be removed from the pile on the basis of the surplus volume.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2015Publication date: December 6, 2018Applicant: VOLVO CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT ABInventors: Torbjörn MARTINSSON, Martin MAGNUSSON

Patent number: 10128394Abstract: The solar cell structure according to the present invention comprises a nanowire (205) that constitutes the light absorbing part of the solar cell structure and a passivating shell (209) that encloses at least a portion of the nanowire (205). In a first aspect of the invention, the passivating shell (209) of comprises a light guiding shell (210), which preferably has a high- and indirect bandgap to provide light guiding properties. In a second aspect of the invention, the solar cell structure comprises a plurality of nanowires which are positioned with a maximum spacing between adjacent nanowires which is shorter than the wavelength of the light which the solar cell structure is intended to absorbing order to provide an effective medium for light absorption. Thanks to the invention it is possible to provide high efficiency solar cell structures.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2016Date of Patent: November 13, 2018Assignee: QUNANO ABInventors: Lars Samuelson, Martin Magnusson, Federico Capasso

Patent number: 10036101Abstract: The present invention provides a method and a system for forming wires (1) that enables a large scale process combined with a high structural complexity and material quality comparable to wires formed using substrate-based synthesis. The wires (1) are grown from catalytic seed particles (2) suspended in a gas within a reactor. Due to a modular approach wires (1) of different configuration can be formed in a continuous process. In-situ analysis to monitor and/or to sort particles and/or wires formed enables efficient process control.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2016Date of Patent: July 31, 2018Assignee: QUNANO ABInventors: Lars Samuelson, Martin Magnusson, Knut Deppert, Magnus Heurlin

Patent number: 9954060Abstract: The present invention provides a method for aligning nanowires which can be used to fabricate devices comprising nanowires that has well-defined and controlled orientation independently on what substrate they are arranged on. The method comprises the steps of providing nanowires and applying an electrical field over the population of nanowires, whereby an electrical dipole moment of the nanowires makes them align along the electrical field. Preferably the nanowires are dispersed in a fluid during the steps of providing and aligning. When aligned, the nanowires can be fixated, preferably be deposition on a substrate. The electrical field can be utilized in the deposition. Pn-junctions or any net charge introduced in the nanowires may assist in the aligning and deposition process. The method is suitable for continuous processing, e.g. in a roll-to-roll process, on practically any substrate materials and not limited to substrates suitable for particle assisted growth.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2016Date of Patent: April 24, 2018Assignee: QUNANO ABInventors: Lars Samuelson, Knut Deppert, Jonas Ohlsson, Martin Magnusson
