Abstract: A memory cell includes a substrate and a body including plural layers. The body has an inner body and an outer body, and the body is formed on top of the substrate. A nanotube trench is formed vertically in the body and extends to the substrate. A nanotube structure is formed in the nanotube trench. The nanotube trench divides the body into the inner body and the outer body and the nanotube structure is mechanically separated from the inner body and the outer body by a tunnel oxide layer, a charge trapping layer, and a blocking oxide layer.

Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) solar cell includes an active, rigid, and flat material configured to transform solar energy into electrical energy, wherein the active, rigid, and flat material is shaped as first and second petals, each petal having plural sides, plural electrodes formed on a backside of the active, rigid, and flat material, a flexible transparent substrate coating the backside of the active, rigid, and flat material and the plural electrodes, plural trenches formed in the active, rigid, and flat material, to partially expose the plural electrodes and the substrate, and a transparent polymer configured to attach a side from the first petal to a side from the second petal.

Abstract: A multi-dimensional integrated circuit (MD-IC) device for monitoring one or more parameters of a fluid includes plural faces, each face having plural interlocks extending from a periphery of the face for interlocking with corresponding interlocks of another face of the plural faces; the plural faces are mechanically attached to each other and electrically connected through the interlocks to form a closed chamber; an energy harvester placed on an outside surface of a first face of the plural faces; a fluidic monitoring sensor placed on an outside surface of a second face of the plural faces; a processor placed within the closed chamber; and a battery placed within the closed chamber and configured to receive the electrical energy from the energy harvester and to provide the electrical energy to the processor and the water monitoring sensor.

Abstract: A breathing mask for being worn on the face includes a filtration mechanism configured to filter out particles having a diameter larger than a first predetermined value; a connecting mechanism; and a removable nano-porous hydrophobic membrane configured to be removably attached to the filtration mechanism with the connecting mechanism. The nano-porous membrane is configured to filter out particles having a diameter larger than a second predetermined value, which is different from the first predetermined value.

A nanotube trench is formed vertically in the body and extends to the substrate. A nanotube structure is formed in the nanotube trench. The nanotube trench divides the body into the inner body and the outer body and the nanotube structure is mechanically separated from the inner body and the outer body by a tunnel oxide layer, a charge trapping layer, and a blocking oxide layer.

Abstract: There is a an electronic device that includes a substrate; a body including plural layers, the body being formed on top of the substrate; a nanotube trench formed vertically in the body and extending to the substrate; and a nanotube structure formed in the nanotube trench. The nanotube structure is mechanically separated from the body by a gate dielectric layer and a ferroelectric layer.

Abstract: A microfluidic chip includes a substrate; plural layers formed on top of each other over the substrate; a top layer formed over the plural layers; a first input port formed into the top layer; a second input port formed into the top layer; a first output port formed into a first layer of the plural layers; and a second output port formed into a second layer of the plural layers. The second layer is formed over the first layer.

Abstract: A multi-dimensional integrated circuit (MD-IC) device for monitoring one or more parameters of a fluid includes plural faces, each face having plural interlocks on a periphery for interlocking with corresponding interlocks of another face of the plural faces; the plural faces are mechanically attached to each other through the interlocks to form a closed chamber; an energy harvester placed on an outside surface of a first face of the plural faces, so that the energy harvester converts solar energy into electrical energy; a fluidic monitoring sensor placed on an outside surface of a second face of the plural faces, so that the fluidic monitoring sensor monitors the one or more parameters of the fluid; a processor placed within the closed chamber; and a battery placed within the closed chamber and configured to receive the electrical energy from the energy harvester and to provide the electrical energy to the processor and the water monitoring sensor.
