  • Patent number: 11210132
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for migrating a virtual machine across virtualization systems, and a system, where a first virtualization system in which a source virtual machine is located specifies a temporary address of a destination virtual machine. After a second migration tool of a second virtualization system migrates the to-be-migrated virtual machine to the second virtualization system to generate the destination virtual machine, a first migration tool of the first virtualization system controls a migration agent on the destination virtual machine to modify the address of the destination virtual machine to an address of the source virtual machine such that the address of the virtual machine remains unchanged before and after migration, thereby shortening service interruption duration caused by virtual machine migration.

  • Publication number: 20210319499
    Abstract: In some embodiments, an app provides a geolocation-limited marketplace limited to a pre-defined period of time. The geolocation-limited marketplace is accessible only by the users in a predefined geographical area. Typically, the predefined geographical area is limited to an area small enough for a user to walk from one end to the other in a short period of time. The pre-defined period of time is of some limited length of time that may occur at a pre-defined interval. In some instances, the period of time is one hour.

  • Patent number: 11031520
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methodologies for manufacturing photovoltaic devices. In particular, the disclosure relates to the use of hydrogen during manufacturing of photovoltaic devices for passivating defects in the silicon and addressing light-induced degradation. The methodologies in the present disclosures take advantage of generation and manipulation of hydrogen in the neutral or charged state to optimise defect passivation. Some of the methodologies disclose use thermal treatments, illumination with sub-bandgap photons, electric fields or defects in the silicon to control the state of charge or hydrogen, move hydrogen to different locations in the device or retain hydrogen at specific locations.

  • Patent number: 10910509
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a method for processing a silicon wafer that allows improving performance by exploiting the properties of crystallographic imperfections. The method comprises the steps of: forming a silicon layer with crystallographic imperfections in the proximity of a surface of the silicon; exposing at least a portion of the device to hydrogen atoms in a manner such that hydrogen atoms migrate towards the region with crystallographic imperfections and into the silicon along the crystallographic imperfections; and controlling the charge state of hydrogen atoms located at the crystallographic imperfections to be positive when the imperfections are in a p-type region of the wafer; and negative when the imperfections are at an n-type region of the wafer by thermally treating the silicon while exposing the silicon to an illumination intensity of less than 10 mW/cm2.
