  • Patent number: 12058157
    Abstract: Devices and techniques are generally described for anomalous computer activity detection. In various examples, first computer activity data associated with a first account may be determined. A first linear detection event that corresponds to the first computer activity data may be determined. In some examples, a set of gradient-based data associated with the first linear detection event may be determined. The set of gradient-based data may represent comparative analysis of the first computer activity data with computer activity data of other accounts. In some examples, first data representing the first linear detection event and the set of gradient-based data may be generated. In various cases, network access for the first account may be disabled based on the first data.

  • Publication number: 20220102577
    Abstract: A multijunction solar cell and its method of fabrication, including an upper and a lower solar subcell each having an emitter layer and a base layer forming a photoelectric junction; a near infrared (NIR) wideband reflector layer disposed below the upper subcell and above the lower subcell for reflecting light in the spectral range of 900 to 1050 nm which represents unused and undesired solar energy and thereby reducing the overall solar energy absorptance in the solar cell and providing thermodynamic radiative cooling of the solar cell when deployed in space outside the atmosphere.

  • Patent number: 10263134
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a multijunction solar cell comprising: an upper solar subcell having an indirect band gap semiconductor emitter layer composed of greater than 0.8 but less than 1.0 mole fraction aluminum and a base layer, the emitter layer and the base layer forming a heterojunction solar subcell; and a lower solar subcell disposed beneath the upper solar subcell, wherein the lower solar subcell has an emitter layer and a base layer forming a photoelectric junction. In some embodiments, the emitter layer of the upper solar subcell is an n-type AlxGa1-xAs layer with 0.8<x<1.0 and having a band gap of greater than 2.0 eV.
