Abstract: A continuous or semi-continuous process for fabricating nanowires or microwires makes use of the substantially planar template that may be moved through electrochemical solution to grow nanowires or microwires on exposed conductive edges on the surface of that template. The planar template allows fabrication of the template using standard equipment and techniques. Adhesive transfer may be used to remove the wires from the template and in one embodiment to draw a continuous wire from the template to be wound around the drum.

Abstract: Transparent file processing is supported in Unix-like operating systems by emulating the desired file processing through a number of recipes that accommodate different contexts. Recipes are provided, for example, for local folders in user space, for whole devices (e.g., flash drives or network drives), and for folders synchronized to cloud data. By detecting the path type for a file operation and selecting and applying the appropriate recipe, file processing can be performed in a manner transparent to the user.

Abstract: A fuel system for a vehicle, where the fuel system comprises a first fuel pump and a second fuel pump, and where the capacity of the first fuel pump is lower than the capacity of the second fuel pump. The advantage of the disclosure is that the supply of fuel to the combustion engine from the fuel system can be optimized with respect to energy usage.

Abstract: A module with a module housing which is at least partly filled with a thermofluid, the thermofluid being designed in particular for an operating temperature range of 200° C. to 400° C. Furthermore, a fluid energy machine is arranged in the module housing or is partly integrated into the module housing, the fluid energy machine having a drive unit and a transporting unit which are coupled to each other in order to transmit a rotational force. The drive unit is fluidically connected to at least one fluid line of an at least partly external fluid circuit such that the drive unit is energized by a fluid flow in the fluid line, and the drive unit does not have other connections for supplying from another external energy source.

Abstract: A method of fabricating nanowires or microwires employs a robust conductive surface whose edges define electrodes for promoting electrochemical deposition of nanowire material at those edges. Controlled deposition times and thin conductive layers allow extremely small diameter wires to be created and then removed without destruction of the pattern and the wires to be applied to a second substrate or used for composite materials.

Abstract: A planar substrate for electrochemical experimentation provides multiple isolated electrical conductors sandwiched between insulating layers of ultrananocrystalline diamond. The isolated electrical conductors may attach to conductive pads at the periphery of the substrate and exposed at apertures in the central region of the substrate for a variety of experimental purposes.

Abstract: A combinatorial electrochemical deposition system enables computer control over multiple parameters and allows for systematic exploration of the parameter space. The combinatorial electrochemical deposition system includes a computer providing system control and data acquisition functions. The computer controls a plurality of pumps; each pump is connected to a respective material supply source. The plurality of pumps is coupled via a mixer and a plurality of distribution valves of a cell and fluidics distribution network to deposit a particular composition of materials or solution concentration to individual electrochemical cells of an electrochemical cell array. The computer controls the mixer and the plurality of distribution valves. The electrochemical cell array includes a plurality of singly addressable flow-through isolatable electrochemical cells with a common working electrode.

Abstract: A device and method of making same. The device or hydrogen detector has a non-conducting substrate with a metal film capable of absorbing hydrogen to form a stable metal hydride. The metal film is being on the threshold of percolation and is connected to mechanism for sensing a change in electrical resistance in response to the presence of hydrogen in contact with the metal film which causes an increase in conductivity.
